Second Order Markov multistate models
arXiv (Cornell University)(2023)
摘要
Multistate models (MSM) are well developed for continuous and discrete times under a first order Markov assumption. Motivated by a cohort of COVID-19 patients, an MSM was designed based on 14 transitions among 7 states of a patient. Since a preliminary analysis showed that the first order Markov condition was not met for some transitions, we have developed a second order Markov model where the future evolution not only depends on the current but also on the preceding state. Under a discrete time analysis, assuming homogeneity and that past information is restricted to 2 consecutive times, we expanded the transition probability matrix and proposed an extension of the Chapman- Kolmogorov equations.
