New Inference Procedures for Semiparametric Varying-Coefficient Partially Linear Cox Models by Yunbei Ma, Xuan Luo

“…In biomedical research, one major objective is to identify risk factors and study their risk impacts, as this identification can help clinicians to both properly make a decision and increase efficiency of treatments and resource allocation. A two-step penalized-based procedure is proposed to select linear regression coefficients for linear components and to identify significant nonparametric varying-coefficient functions for semiparametric varying-coefficient partially linear Cox models. …”
