An accelerated failure time regression model for illness–death data: A frailty approach

This work presents a new model and estimation procedure for the illness–death survival data where the hazard functions follow accelerated failure time (AFT) models. A shared frailty variate induces positive dependence among failure times of a subject for handling the unobserved dependency between th...
