Maximum likelihood estimator for a given parametric distribution

Description

Maximum likelihood estimator for a given parametric distribution

Usage

SurvMLE(
  yobs,
  delta,
  distribution,
  truncation = NULL,
  cure = FALSE,
  maxit = 300
)

Arguments

yobs	a numeric vector that indicated the observed survival times.
delta	a numeric vector that stores the right-censoring indicators.
distribution	the specified distribution function.
truncation	a positive numeric value thats denotes the value of truncation for the assumed distribution.
cure	a logical value that indicates whether the existence of a cured fraction should be considered.
maxit	a positive integer that denotes the maximum iteration number in optimization.
