Python에서의 Survival Analysis

What problems does survival analysis solve, and what is censorship? You’ll answer these questions as you explore survival analysis data, build survival curves, and make basic estimations of survival time.

In this chapter, you’ll learn how the Kaplan-Meier model works and how to fit, visualize, and interpret it. You’ll then apply this model to explore how categorical variables affect survival and learn how to supplement your analysis using hypothesis testing methods like the log-rank test.

Discover how to model time-to-event data with parametric models. Learn how to use the Weibull model and the Weibull AFT model and what different purposes they serve. Use survival regression to make inferences about how covariates affect the survival function and learn how to select the best survival model for your data.

Another chapter, another model! In this final chapter, you'll learn about the proportional hazards assumption and the role it plays in fitting and interpreting the Cox Proportional Hazards model. You’ll also learn how to predict new subjects' survival times using the Cox Proportional Hazards model.
