Hierarchical modelling of multivariate survival data
Hierarchical models based on conditional independence are investigated as a means of modelling multivariate survival times. The model structure follows Clayton (1978), Hougaard (1986b), and Oakes (1986, 1989). Both approximate Bayesian and maximum likelihood estimation in these models is investigate...
