## Abstract Mixture cure models have been utilized to analyze survival data with possible cure. This paper considers the inclusion of frailty into the mixture cure model to model recurrent event data with a cure fraction. An attractive feature of the proposed model is the allowance for heterogeneit

## Abstract As the treatments of cancer progress, a certain number of cancers are curable if diagnosed early. In populationβbased cancer survival studies, cure is said to occur when mortality rate of the cancer patients returns to the same level as that expected for the general cancerβfree populati
This paper presents a case study of model selection for survival analysis data. We use an approximate Bayesian method for model selection based on assessing the posterior probability of competing models given the data. We introduce the Schwarz criteria, an approximation to the logarithm of the Bayes
## Abstract We propose an equation of state for fluid mixtures of water + ammonia which is expressed in Helmholtz free energy as a function of temperature, molar volume, and mole fraction. IAPWS Formulation 1995 for water and the equation of state by TillnerβRoth and colleagues for ammonia should b
