torchsurv.loss.weibull.neg_log_likelihood(log_params: Tensor, event: Tensor, time: Tensor, reduction: str = 'mean', checks: bool = True) Tensor[source]#

Negative of the log likelihood for the Weibull Accelerated Time Failure (AFT) survival model.

Parameters:
  • log_params (torch.Tensor, float) – Parameters of the Weibull distribution of shape = (n_samples, 1) or (n_samples, 2). The first column corresponds to the log scale parameter. The second column corresponds to the log shape parameter. If the log shape parameter is missing, it is imputed with 0.

  • event (torch.Tensor, bool) – Event indicator of length n_samples (= True if event occured).

  • time (torch.Tensor, float) – Time-to-event or censoring of length n_samples.

  • reduction (str) – Method to reduce losses. Defaults to “mean”. Must be one of the following: “sum”, “mean”.

  • checks (bool) – Whether to perform input format checks. Enabling checks can help catch potential issues in the input data. Defaults to True.

Returns:

Negative of the log likelihood.

Return type:

(torch.Tensor, float)

Note

For each subject \(i \in \{1, \cdots, N\}\), denote \(X_i\) as the survival time and \(D_i\) as the censoring time. Survival data consist of the event indicator, \(\delta_i=1(X_i\leq D_i)\) (argument event) and the time-to-event or censoring, \(T_i = \min(\{ X_i,D_i \})\) (argument time).

The log hazard function for the Weibull AFT survival model [Car03] of subject \(i\) at time \(t\) has the form:

\[\log h_i(t) = \log{\rho_i} - \log{\lambda_i} + (\rho_i -1) \left( \log{t} - \log{\lambda_i}\right)\]

where \(\log{\lambda_i}\) is the log scale parameter (first column of argument log_params) and \(\log{\rho_i}\) is the log shape parameter (second column of argument log_params). The cumulative hazard for the Weibull survival model of subject \(i\) at time \(t\) has the form:

\[H_i(t) = \left(\frac{t}{\lambda_i}\right)^{\rho_i}\]

The survival function for the Weibull survival model of subject \(i\) at time \(t\) has the form:

\[S_i(t) = 1 - F(t | \lambda_i, \rho_i)\]

where \(F(t | \lambda, \rho)\) is the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the Weibull distribution given scale parameter \(\lambda\) and shape parameter \(\rho\).

The log likelihood of the Weibull survival model is

\[ll = \sum_{i: \delta_i = 1} \log h_i(T_i) - \sum_{i = 1}^N H_i(T_i)\]

Examples

>>> _ = torch.manual_seed(42)
>>> n = 4
>>> log_params = torch.randn((n, 2))
>>> event = torch.randint(low=0, high=2, size=(n,), dtype=torch.bool)
>>> time = torch.randint(low=1, high=100, size=(n,))
>>> neg_log_likelihood(log_params, event, time) # Default: mean of log likelihoods across subject
tensor(47.5035)
>>> neg_log_likelihood(log_params, event, time, reduction = 'sum') # Sum of log likelihoods across subject
tensor(190.0141)
>>> neg_log_likelihood(torch.randn((n, 1)), event, time)  # Missing shape: exponential decrease
tensor(66.7203)

Survival function for the Weibull Accelerated Time Failure (AFT) survival model.

Parameters:

  • time (torch.Tensor, float) – Time at which to evaluate the survival function. Should be of length n_samples to evaluate the survival function at observed time-to-event or censoring, or of length one to evaluate the survival function at a new time.

  • all_times (bool) – If True, subject-specific survival function is evaluated at all time (used for evaluation metrics). If False, subject-specific survival function is evaluated at respective time. Defaults is True. Ignored if time is of length one.
