This study introduces a practical Bayesian approach for analyzing survival data, offering simple computations and applicability across all sample sizes. It emphasizes survival curve inference and facilitates model comparison using Bayes factors.

Area of Science:

  • Biostatistics
  • Statistical Modeling
  • Survival Analysis

Background:

  • Traditional survival data analysis relies on asymptotic inferences, which can be limiting.
  • Bayesian methods offer computational simplicity and broad applicability, regardless of sample size.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a practical Bayesian method for prior specification in survival analysis.
  • To conduct a comprehensive Bayesian analysis for parametric accelerated failure time (AFT) regression models.
  • To highlight the advantages of Bayesian inference for survival curves and model comparison.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a practical prior specification strategy for Bayesian survival models.
  • Application of Bayesian inference to parametric AFT regression models.

  • Utilizing Bayes factors for model comparison, particularly for non-nested models.

    • Main Results:

    • The proposed Bayesian method provides a flexible framework for survival data analysis.
    • Bayesian inference effectively handles inferences for survival curves.
    • Bayes factors simplify model comparisons between different baseline distributions, a challenge in frequentist approaches.

    Conclusions:

    • Bayesian analysis offers a computationally efficient and versatile alternative for survival data, especially for complex models and model selection.
    • The framework supports robust diagnostic tools and sensitivity analyses for Bayesian survival models.
