Abstract
In this chapter we present a model of survival with a cure fraction where a feature of the model is that variable selection is performed by Bayesian partition model. To this end we consider a orthogonal hyperplane tessellation to obtain a local structure on space covariates. The proposed model is based on the promotion time where the number of competitive causes follows a power series distribution.
