Mar 13, 2016 at 15:25 comment added GeorgeOfTheRF @Marc Claesen I assume neural networks cannot be directly applied to survival analysis problem but the survival analysis problem should be 1st converted to a classification or regression problem. So can you please explain how survival analysis problem can be converted to a classification or regression problem so that neural networks can be applied? Please answer here if possible stats.stackexchange.com/questions/199549/…
Feb 13, 2015 at 20:48 comment added statBeginner @Marc Claesen: The Cox PH model does provide P(survival time > t). Isn't is possible to get the pdf of survival time from there and sample from the pdf?

Jan 18, 2014 at 12:21 comment added Final Litiu thank you for the answer! You've said it exactly - "to obtain an expected survival time given a set of covariates". I'll have to go with the neural networks and SVMs in my study.
