摘 要:
In a survival model with a time-dependent covariate, the covariate may be left censored due to a lower detection limit and its observed values may contain outliers. Motivated from an HIV vaccine study, we propose a robust method for joint models of longitudinal and survival data, where the outliers in longitudinal data are addressed using a multivariate t-distribution for b-outliers and using an M-estimator for e-outliers. We also propose a computationally efficient method for approximate likelihood inference. The proposed method is evaluated by simulation studies. Based on the proposed models and method,we analyze the HIV vaccine data and find a strong association between longitudinal biomarkers and the risk of HIV infection.
