This book describes methods and software implementations for the analysis of interval-censored data. The authors present the theoretical background for all methods and apply the methods to real data sets. They also provide the R, SAS, and WinBUGS code for all the examples, enabling readers to modify the code and use the methods to solve their own practical problems. In addition, most of the data sets used in the text are available online.

The growth of biostatistics has been phenomenal in recent years and has been marked by considerable technical innovation in both methodology and computational practicality. One area that has experienced significant growth is Bayesian methods. The growing use of Bayesian methodology has taken place partly due to an increasing number of practitioners valuing the Bayesian paradigm as matching that of scientific discovery. In addition, computational advances have allowed for more complex models to be fitted routinely to realistic data sets.
Through examples, exercises and a combination of...
