摘要	Random Survival Forest (RSF), introduced by Ishwaran, Kogalur, Blackstone, and Lauer in 2008, is an ensemble machine learning method that adapts the Random Forest algorithm to time-to-event (survival) data. Trees are grown using log-rank splitting to handle censored observations naturally, and the ensemble aggregates cumulative hazard functions across hundreds of trees to produce predictions and variable importance rankings.	The Kaplan-Meier estimator, introduced by Kaplan and Meier in 1958, is a non-parametric method that estimates the survival curve — the probability of remaining event-free over time — from right-censored time-to-event data. The log-rank test is the companion procedure used to compare survival curves between groups.	The Nelson-Aalen estimator is a non-parametric estimator of the cumulative hazard function from right-censored time-to-event data. Developed by Wayne Nelson for reliability hazard plotting in 1972 and placed on a rigorous counting-process foundation by Odd Aalen in 1978, it accumulates the ratio of observed events to the number at risk at each event time, providing the natural hazard-scale companion to the Kaplan-Meier survival curve.
