In BayesMFSurv: Bayesian Misclassified-Failure Survival Model

Subsetted version of survival database extracted from Buhaug et al. (2009). It has precisely dated duration data of internal conflict as well as geographic data. Variables Y, Y0 and C were later added by Bagozzi et al. (2019). It is used to estimate the Bayesian Misclassified Failure (MF) Weibull model presented in Bagozzi et al. (2019).
