The Statistical Analysis of Recurrent Events /
Cook, Richard J.,author.
Lawless, Jerald,author.
This book presents models and statistical methods for the analysis of recurrent event data. The authors provide broad, detailed coverage of the major approaches to analysis, while emphasizing the modeling assumptions that they are based on. More general intensity-based models are also considered, as well as simpler models that focus on rate or mean functions. Parametric, nonparametric and semiparametric methodologies are all covered, with procedures for estimation, testing and model checking.
Description based upon print version of record.
Includes bibliographical references and indexes.
