Abstract:

Proportional hazards regression shares the possibility of infinite parameter estimation with logistic and multinomial regression. This poster demonstrates how to perform approximate conditional inference on finite components of the proportional hazards regression model in the presence of infinite estimates for nuisance parameters, by employing optimization techniques to reduce the data set to one yielding conditional inference approximating that of the desired regression model.
