SurvSurf: a partially monotonic neural network for first-hitting time prediction of intermittently observed discrete and continuous sequential events

Abstract We propose SurvSurf, a neural-network-based survival model for direct, simultaneous probabilistic prediction of first-hitting times of sequential events from baseline. Unlike existing models, SurvSurf is theoretically guaranteed to never violate the monotonic relationshi...
