New ideas in Modelling for Survival Analysis

22/3/2017

ICMC/USP

Será apresentada uma nova abordagem funcional de geração de distribuições na linha real positiva, baseada na função de risco cumulativo e que pode ser usada para gerar famílias paramétricas de distribuições. Karim também apresentará um novo método de estimação.

O evento é aberto a todos os interessados.

 

Abstract

In this talk I will present a novel functional approach to generate distributions on the positive real line. The approach is based on the cumulative hazard function and can be used to generate flexible parametric families of distributions. Motivated by this approach, I will also present a new minimum distance method of parameter estimation.
