Flexible Parametric ModelSpline-Based Survival Model, Flexible Hazard Model

A flexible parametric model is a fully specified regression model that represents a transformed survival function with smooth functions of time, commonly restricted cubic splines, so complex hazards and time-varying effects can be estimated and extrapolated.

Fractional PolynomialFP Model, Power-Transformation Model

A flexible modelling technique representing a non-linear relationship using a small number of power transformations of a continuous variable.
