A two‐way flexible generalized gamma transformation cure rate model

P Wang, S Pal - Statistics in Medicine, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
We propose a two‐way flexible cure rate model. The first flexibility is provided by
considering a family of Box‐Cox transformation cure models that include the commonly used …

Likelihood inference for unified transformation cure model with interval censored data

J Treszoks, S Pal - Computational Statistics, 2024 - Springer
In this paper, we extend the unified class of Box–Cox transformation (BCT) cure rate models
to accommodate interval-censored data. The probability of cure is modeled using a general …
