The method thus estimates a baselinehazardfunctionwhich is modified by the coefficient estimates for the various independent variables.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Survival curves were generated, and gains in life expectancy were estimated, from the baseline cumulativehazardfunctionand prognostic index.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Semi-parametric models require no assumption on the functional form of the baselinehazardfunction, so they are more flexible than parametric models.
From theCambridge English Corpus
To associate covariate effects andhazardfunction, proportional hazard models are the most popular.
From theCambridge English Corpus
With follow-up limited to only a few years, estimates of survival gains have been truncated, reflecting the estimatedhazardfunction.
From theCambridge English Corpus
We must collect at least one more data point than there are unknown parameters in the individual growth model or in the baselinehazardfunction.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Factors associated with death after repair were sought by parametric modeling of the time-varyinghazardfunction.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The knots for the splines were determined from inspection of thehazardfunctionfor males and females combined.
From theCambridge English Corpus
If the event is equally likely to occur at any given age, thehazardfunctionwill be flat.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Survival gains were estimated for 3.3 years following treatment, since this was the time span over which the underlyinghazardfunctionwas calculable.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Does thehazardfunctionpeak, and if so, when?
From theCambridge English Corpus
The advantages associated with additional waves of data collection depend, in part, upon the shape of the growth trajectory or the baselinehazardfunction.
From theCambridge English Corpus
These more complex analytic goals are achieved by postulating and fitting statistical models of thehazardfunctionand by conducting tests on the parameters of these models.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Multjvariate analysis inhazardfunctiondomain indicates early repair as a negativeriskfactor for death (p=0.038).
From theCambridge English Corpus
However, the biological applicability of this model may be limited by the fact that thehazardfunction is monotonic, i.e. either decreasing of increasing.
From
Wikipedia
For example, component failures typically occur at some constant failure rate (a constanthazardfunction).
From
Wikipedia
Fitted hazard functions describing age at first onset of depression by gender and whether the respondent's parents had divorced.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Examination of empirical growth trajectories and sample hazard functions computed separately by values of each predictor can often suggest reasonable places to begin.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The model assumes that the ratio of the hazard functions for two observations with different values for the independent variables does not depend on time.
