In this paper, we consider survival analysis with right-censored data which is a common situation in predictive maintenance and health field. We propose a model based on the estimation of two-parameter Weibull distribution conditionally to the features. To achieve this result, we describe a neural network architecture and the associated loss functions that takes into account the right-censored data. We extend the approach to a finite mixture of two-parameter Weibull distributions. We first…

This work proposes a mixture model to model each patient's latent survival pattern, where the mixing probabilities for latent groups are modeled through a multinomial distribution, and shows that the adaptive lasso estimator has oracle properties when the number of parameters diverges with the sample size.
