I first started my video tutorial series on survival analysis by defining the hazard function. I then explained how this definition leads to the elegant relationship of . In my new video, I derive 6 useful mathematical relationships that exist between any 2 of the 3 quantities in the above equation. Each relationship allows one quantity […]
In an earlier video, I introduced the definition of the hazard function and broke it down into its mathematical components. Recall that the definition of the hazard function for events defined on a continuous time scale is . Did you know that the hazard function can be expressed as the probability density function (PDF) divided by the […]
The hazard function is a fundamental quantity in survival analysis. For an event occurring at some time on a continuous time scale, the hazard function, , for that event is defined as , where is the time, is the time of the occurrence of the event. However, what does this actually mean? In this Youtube […]
