Some recent developments for regression analysis of multivariate failure time data

TL;DR: This paper presents a survey of models for multivariate failure time data and focuses on recent extensions of the proportional hazards model for multangular failure timeData formulation, parameter interpretation and estimation procedures are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Approximate likelihood ratios for general estimating functions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present approximate likelihood ratios that can be used along with estimating functions when any of these three problems occurs, including multiple roots for the estimating function, a poorly behaved Wald test, or lack of a goodness-of-fit test.
Journal ArticleDOI

Empirically derived latent classes of tobacco dependence syndromes observed in recent-onset tobacco smokers: Epidemiological evidence from a national probability sample survey

TL;DR: This study pursued a line of large-sample epidemiological research on tobacco dependence syndromes that may appear during the first 2 years of tobacco smoking, as clinical features begin to emerge, focusing on smokers who just recently started using tobacco.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimating functions and approximate conditional likelihood

TL;DR: In this article, the approximate conditional likelihood (ACLF) method is applied to the estimation of a scalar parameter 0, in the presence of nuisance parameters, and a sufficient condition for both approaches to be equivalent is given, where the role of parameter orthogonality is emphasized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of case-control/family sampling design

TL;DR: The relative merit of matched versus unmatched designs is discussed; statistical methods that are useful for analyzing family data are presented; and sample size formulas for studies of quantitative and qualitative traits are presented.
