Classical Tobit models fail to handle nonlinear relationships or perform high-dimensional variable selection, whereas deep learning approaches often prioritize prediction performance but lack selection and interpretation capabilities. To address this gap, we propose an integrated deep learning framework, the Deep Tobit model, which employs the negative Tobit log-likelihood as its loss function to properly account for data censoring. A two-stage feature selection algorithm is further developed, with theoretical guarantees on convergence rate and selection consistency.

Such research questions lead to testing multiple individual hypotheses. To control the familywise error rate (FWER), we must apply some corrections or introduce tests that control the FWER by design. In the case of time-to-event data, a Bonferroni-corrected log-rank test is commonly used. This approach has two significant drawbacks: (i) it loses power when the proportional hazards assumption is violated and (ii) the correction generally leads to a lower power, especially when the test statistics are not independent. We propose two new tests based on combined weighted log-rank tests. One is a simple multiple contrast test of weighted log-rank tests, and one is an extension of the so-called CASANOVA test. The latter was introduced for factorial designs. We propose a new multiple contrast test based on the CASANOVA approach. Our test shows promise of being more powerful under crossing hazards and eliminates the need for additional p-value correction. We assess the performance of our tests through extensive Monte Carlo simulation studies covering both proportional and non-proportional hazard scenarios. Finally, we apply the new and reference methods to a real-world data example. The new approaches control the FWER and show reasonable power in all scenarios.

The dependency between the recurrent events and the terminal event is described by two variants of random effects models that allow the processes to share the random effect, either fully or partly. The models are formulated as two-stage models, where the marginals can be fitted in an initial stage, and then subsequently random effects parameters can be estimated. The estimation of parameters does not require the choice of any tuning parameters, in contrast to procedures based on numerical integration, and the numerical procedure works well.

The method is based on a representation of the conditional hazard as a ratio between a joint density and a conditional expectation determined by the distribution of the observed variables. It is shown that such ratio representations are available for uni- and bivariate time-to-events, in the presence of common types of random censoring, truncation, and with possibly cured individuals, as well as for competing risks. This opens the door to nonparametric approaches in many time-to-event predictive models. To estimate joint densities and conditional expectations we propose the recursive kernel smoothing, which is well suited for online estimation. Asymptotic results for such estimators are derived and it is shown that they achieve optimal convergence rates.

However, conventional cure models typically assume linear covariate effects in both components, which may limit their flexibility and applicability for potential nonlinear relationships. In this paper, we propose a flexible semiparametric mixture cure model that incorporates parametric and nonparametric covariate structures for both the cure probability and the event-time distribution of susceptible subjects. We utilize spline-based techniques to approximate unspecified functions and implement a four-stage data augmentation approach to address the complexities inherent in the model and data structure.

The proposed method is based on the local computation strategy: each site can obtain an integrative estimation based on its local full dataset and the summary statistics from other sites. For each party, this strategy not only meets the data privacy constraints but also maximizes its local data's utilization. Moreover, we introduce a refined procedure for practical use to avoid the shrinkage of the local covariate effect that is unique across all sites.
