Analytic Techniques

Essentially, the methods used in Analytic Techniques address the same research questions as many of the other Statistica procedures; however, all methods in Survival Analysis handle censored data. The life table, survival distribution, and Kaplan-Meier survival function estimation are all descriptive methods for estimating the distribution of survival times from a sample. Several techniques are included for comparing the survival in two or more groups. Survival Analysis also includes several regression models for estimating the relationship of continuous variables to survival times.
