Additive and multiplicative gamma polygonal in the hazards function with right-censored observations

Proportional hazards model (PHM) is commonly used in survival analysis for estimating the effects of different covariates influencing the survival data. The hazard function in proportional hazards model (PHM) is commonly defined as a product of the baseline hazard function and a non-negative functio...

Description
Summary:Proportional hazards model (PHM) is commonly used in survival analysis for estimating the effects of different covariates influencing the survival data. The hazard function in proportional hazards model (PHM) is commonly defined as a product of the baseline hazard function and a non-negative function of covariates. However, the hazard function may also be presented as the sum of the baseline hazard function and a nonnegative function of covariates.
