Compute the conditional survival function for Interval Censored Survival Data

Description

A method to compute the survival function for the interval censored survival data based on a spline function based constrained maximum likelihood estimator. The maximization process of likelihood is carried out by generalized gradient projection method.

Usage

condS(L, R, M, Delta, t, m)

Arguments

L

The numericvector of left limit of observed time. For left censored observations L == 0.

R

The numericvector of right limit of observed time. For right censored observation R == inf.

M

An array contains marker levels for the samples.

Delta

An array of indicator for the censored type, use 1, 2, 3 for event happened before the left bound time, within the defined time range, and after.

t

A scalar indicates the predict time.

m

A scalar for the cutoff of the marker variable.
