Abstract Abstract—The study employed Deep Learning Frailty (DLF), a compelling neural modeling framework for predicting heart failure patient survival. The DLF embeds a notion of multiplicative frailty from classical survival analysis that deals with unobserved heterogeneity while exploiting the neural structure's strong capabilities in approximating any non-linear covariate relationship. The results showed that Incorporating frailty leads to significant improvements, and the DLF model performs better on average.
