The scientific article introduces the Kaplan-Meier estimator, a nonparametric method for estimating survival functions from incomplete data.
This method is used when observations analysis are censored: when subjects drop out from the study early or never experience the event of interest by the time the study ends.
Brilliant work about censored observations.
I cannot believe that it’s been 25 years since I first taught a survival analysis (biomedical research)/reliability (engineering) course!
When did you first hear about this paper?
Feel free to share you experience in using this method.”
