  • Abstract
    In this paper we show how the survival analysis problem can be formulated in terms of support vector regression, even in cases of censored observations. We prove bounds on the estimation error and we deduce that censoring is a limiting factor in the accuracy of solutions, although the convergence rate is of the same order as for uncensored observations.
