Researchers have developed a new metric called the dependent Brier score to address challenges in evaluating survival models when event times and censoring times are not independent. This score, based on Archimedean copulas and the Copula-Graphic estimator, offers consistency and asymptotic normality for its margin-time estimator. In evaluations across 12 datasets, the proposed metric demonstrated a 12-16% average reduction in estimation error compared to traditional inverse probability of censoring weighting (IPCW) methods.
