Dipolar Tree Ensemble With and Without Adjustment to Competing Risks: Application to Medical Data

Open Access
|Dec 2013

Abstract

The analysis of survival data often aims at the prediction of failure time distribution. In cases of competing risk events, the time distributions of more than one failure are under investigation. In this paper, the comparison of two approaches to analyzing survival data with competing risks is presented. The analyses are performed by use of an ensemble of dipolar trees with and without adjustment to competing risks.
