A comparison of the conditional inference survival forest model to random survival forests based on a simulation study as well as on two applications with time-to-event data

BACKGROUND: Random survival forest (RSF) models have been identified as alternative methods to the Cox proportional hazards model in analysing time-to-event data. These methods, however, have been criticised for the bias that results from favouring covariates with many split-points and hence conditi...
