Semiparametric Regression Analysis of Panel Count Data: A Practical Review

Summary Panel count data arise in many applications when the event history of a recurrent event process is only examined at a sequence of discrete time points. In spite of the recent methodological developments, the availability of their software implementations has been rather limited. Focusing on a practical setting where the effects of some time‐independent covariates on the recurrent events are of primary interest, we review semiparametric...
