• Abstract: This paper introduces a Random Survival Forest (RSF) method for functional data. The focus is specifically on defining a new functional data structure, the Censored Functional Data (CFD), for dealing with temporal observations that are censored due to study limitations or incomplete data collection. This approach allows for precise modelling of functional survival trajectories, leading to improved interpretation and prediction of survival dynamics across different groups. A medical survival study on the benchmark SOFA data set is presented. Results show good performance of the proposed approach, particularly in ranking the importance of predicting variables, as captured through dynamic changes in SOFA scores and patient mortality rates.

  We formalize the concept of trajectory-specific leave-one-out influence, which quantifies the impact of removing a data point during training. We propose data value embedding, a novel technique enabling efficient approximation of trajectory-specific LOO. As data value embedding captures training data ordering, it offers valuable insights into model training dynamics.

  The remaining useful life (RUL) of ball bearings plays an important role in predictive maintenance. We propose a probabilistic estimation of RUL using survival analysis that supports censored data. We demonstrate our approach in the XJTU-SY dataset using cross-validation and find that Random Survival Forests consistently outperforms both non-neural networks and neural networks in terms of the mean absolute error (MAE)

  In this paper, we take advantage of the inherent properties of neural networks to federate the process of training of survival analysis models. In the realistic setting of small medical datasets and only a few data centers, this noise makes it harder for the models to converge. We propose DPFed-post which adds a post-processing stage to the private federated learning scheme.
