### Description of the code
This code shows the modified implementation of DeepHit on Metabric (single risk) and Synthetic (competing risks) datasets.

The detailed modifications are as follows:
- Hyper-parameter opimization using random search is implemented
- Residual connections are removed
- The definition of the time-dependent C-index is changed; please refer to T.A. Gerds et al, "Estimating a Time-Dependent Concordance Index for Survival Prediction Models with Covariate Dependent Censoring," Stat Med., 2013
- Set "EVAL_TIMES" to a list of evaluation times of interest for optimizating the network with respect these evaluation times.
