Cure fraction model for interval censoring with a change point based on a covariate threshold

In this paper, a cure fraction model for interval-censored data with a change point according to a covariate threshold is proposed. Maximum likelihood estimators of the model parameters are obtained using the Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm. A critical challenge to this method was that the l...
