Description
The book covers all important topics in the area of Survival Analysis. Each topic has been covered by one or more chapters written by
internationally renowned experts. Each chapter provides a comprehensive and up-to-date review of the topic. Several new illustrative
examples have been used to demonstrate the methodologies developed. The book also includes an exhaustive list of important references
in the area of Survival Analysis.
Audience
Biostatisticians, Mathematical Statisticians and
Reliability Engineers.
