Competing Risks and Multistate Models with R

by Arthur Allignol, Jan Beyersmann, Martin Schumacher, et al.

Book Overview

This book covers competing risks and multistate models, sometimes summarized as event history analysis. These models generalize the analysis of time to a single event (survival analysis) to analysing the timing of distinct terminal events (competing risks) and possible intermediate events (multistate models). Both R and multistate methods are promoted with a focus on nonparametric methods.
