In this article, we propose a Proportional Relative Hazards (PRH) model to differentiate subjects according to their risk for a primary event relative to competing events. The model estimates effects on the baseline ratio of the hazard for a primary event, or set of primary events, relative to the hazard for a competing event, or set of competing events ({omega}+ ratio). An analogous model is presented to estimate effects on the baseline ratio of the hazard for a primary event (or set of events) relative to the hazard for all events ({omega} ratio). A weighted regression method is introduced, along with practical presentation of risk-stratification using the PRH model in breast and head and neck cancer data sets.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
