Composite likelihood for joint analysis of multiple multistate processes via copulas
Cook, Richard J.; Diao, Liqun (Oxford Journals, 2014-10)A copula-based model is described which enables joint analysis of multiple progressive multistate processes. Unlike intensity-based or frailty-based approaches to joint modeling, the copula formulation proposed herein ... -
A copula model for marked point processes
Diao, Liqun; Cook, Richard J.; Lee, Ker-Ai (Springer, 2013)Many chronic diseases feature recurring clinically important events. In addition, however, there often exists a random variable which is realized upon the occurrence of each event reflecting the severity of the event, a ... -
Copula Models for Multi-type Life History Processes
Diao, Liqun (University of Waterloo, 2013-08-30)This thesis considers statistical issues in the analysis of data in the studies of chronic diseases which involve modeling dependencies between life history processes using copula functions. Many disease processes feature ...
