Challenge: Survival analysis
(pleasant electronic music) - [Instructor] Let's look at some survival analysis challenges. These will help reinforce the knowledge that you've already gained from the previous videos. The first challenge is to load the associated cancer data and explore it. Can you summarize some key characteristics of this data? The next challenge is to perform a nonparametric analysis of the drug on survival time. Which drug performs best? The nonparametric analysis cannot condition on age. Perform an analysis that controls for age, and finally, test whether that model is appropriate.
