3.4.2. statsmodels.emplike.aft_el¶
Accelerated Failure Time (AFT) Model with empirical likelihood inference.
AFT regression analysis is applicable when the researcher has access to a randomly right censored dependent variable, a matrix of exogenous variables and an indicatior variable (delta) that takes a value of 0 if the observation is censored and 1 otherwise.
