Description for Modeling Discrete Time-to-Event Data
Hardback. Series: Springer Series in Statistics. BIC Classification: PBT. Dimension: 235 x 155. .
This book focuses on statistical methods for the analysis of discrete failure times. Failure time analysis is one of the most important fields in statistical research, with applications affecting a wide range of disciplines, in particular, demography, econometrics, epidemiology and clinical research. Although there are a large variety of statistical methods for failure time analysis, many techniques are designed for failure times that are measured on a continuous scale. In empirical studies, however, failure times are often discrete, either because they have been measured in intervals (e.g., quarterly or yearly) or because they have been rounded or grouped.

Reviews for Modeling Discrete Time-to-Event Data
Modeling Discrete Time-to-Event Data provides an excellent overview of a field that is underrepresented in the literature. At what it aims to do, striking a balance between theory and practice, this book does a great job. Its readers will understand not only what to do, but also how to do it. I believe that this book can easily find a ... Read more
