ridge_pro: Train a Ridge Cox Proportional Hazards Model

In E2E: Ensemble Learning Framework for Diagnostic and Prognostic Modeling

Train a Ridge Cox Proportional Hazards Model

Description

Trains a Cox proportional hazards model with Ridge regularization using glmnet.

Usage

ridge_pro(X, y_surv, tune = FALSE)

Arguments

X	A data frame of features.
y_surv	A survival::Surv object representing the survival outcome.
tune	Logical, whether to perform hyperparameter tuning (currently simplified/ignored for direct cv.glmnet usage which inherently tunes lambda).

Value

A list of class "train" containing the trained glmnet model object, names of features used in training, and model type. The returned object also includes fitted_scores (linear predictor), y_surv, and best_lambda.

Examples

set.seed(42)
n_samples <- 50
n_features <- 10
X_data <- as.data.frame(matrix(rnorm(n_samples * n_features), ncol = n_features))
Y_surv_obj <- survival::Surv(
  time = runif(n_samples, 100, 1000),
  event = sample(0:1, n_samples, replace = TRUE)
)

# Train the model
ridge_model <- ridge_pro(X_data, Y_surv_obj)
print(ridge_model$finalModel)
