Machine Learning for Survival Analysis: A Survey

How we try to know when things will happen — a simple guide

Ever wonder when an event will happen, like a machine breaking or a health step changing? This little note shows how experts try to predict timing from messy records.
Some people stop sharing data or never see the event, and those hidden bits make the problem hard — that is called censoring.
Teams use a mix of old stats tricks and new tools from machine learning to cope.
These methods help us learn patterns from partial clues so we can better plan and act.
The idea is to improve survival estimates — not just in medicine, but in business, gadgets, and more.
Readers will see that simple steps can turn unclear data into useful signs, though no guess is perfect.
It cover different ways to handle missing pieces and shows where these ideas work best in real life.
Try to think of it as a friendly map for using smart tools when time matters and some answers are missing.
