possible problems?

  • might be too long
  • have arranged by concept rather than alphabetical

I did a short read through and then got confused that there were two? I'm not sure how much content we want to put in here? My slight concern is this is tending towards being the whole course!

In this course, we mostly consider double (or interval) censored events: we know the event occurred at some time within a time interval, such as at any time on a certain date.
Events might also be right censored (we only know the earliest time it could have happened) or left censored (we only know the latest time it could have occurred).

**Right truncation**: when we only have incomplete information about events because not enough time has passed to observe all of them.

It would be nice to standardise the here as truncation has the same flavours as censoring with the added flavour of we also don't k ow if events occurred. I think the Charniga paper has some defs we can lift has these things are tricky to talk about.

By standardise I mean introduce censoring and truncation then types I.e right left interval and the the idea of double which is just where both events in a delay have some censoring

Thank you for having a look!

Sorry, my bad! Fixed

Yeah agreed, it's too much, very happy if you suggest mass deletions, I was erring on too much than too little

I am wondering if we want to stick on this until after the course as it might take a fair amount of work.

Are there still plans to pursue / maintain this?
