Abstract

The implications for survival analysis are explored of various general criteria for statistical models. Extensions to more complex kinds of data are briefly discussed.

PREAMBLE

This paper is based on a talk given in Seattle, Washington, November 1995 at a Conference celebrating the 25th anniversary of Department of Biostatistics, University of Washington. It thus provided an opportunity of congratulating current and previous members of the Department on their achievment in establishing such a fine reputation for the high international standards of their work and of expressing confidence in the future of the Department as a focus for work of excellence.
