Prediction Modelling & Joint Longitudinal and Survival Data Analysis

Code: DASC506

Credits: 15

Semester: Semester 2

In a rapidly evolving data landscape, the ability to predict outcomes and understand complex longitudinal and time-to-event data is of key significance. The module equips students with the skills to develop robust prediction models, unravel patterns within datasets to foresee future trends and outcomes, and employ statistical and machine learning techniques. It also delves into understanding how variables evolve over time by exploring the intricacies of survival outcomes and temporal dependencies through joint modelling of the two outcomes. Students will benefit from research-connected teaching with hands-on practical applications, translating theory into real-world practice. The curriculum also incorporates the latest research and advancements in the field through formal lectures and seminars featuring guest speakers.
