risksets: Finds the compositions and sizes of risk sets

In eha: Event History Analysis

Finds the compositions and sizes of risk sets

Description

Focus is on the risk set composition just prior to a failure.

Usage

risksets(
  x,
  strata = NULL,
  max.survs = NULL,
  members = TRUE,
  collate_sets = FALSE
)

Arguments

x	A Surv object.
strata	Stratum indicator.
max.survs	Maximum number of survivors in each risk set. If smaller than the 'natural number', survivors are sampled from the present ones. No sampling if missing.
members	If TRUE, all members of all risk sets are listed in the resulting list, see below.
collate_sets	logical. If TRUE, group information by risk sets in a list. Only if members = TRUE.

Details

If the input argument max.survs is left alone, all survivors are accounted for in all risk sets.

Value

A list with components (if collate_sets = FALSE)

antrs	No. of risk sets in each stratum. The number of strata is given by length(antrs).
risktimes	Ordered distinct failure time points.
eventset	If 'members' is TRUE, a vector of pointers to events in each risk set, else NULL.
riskset	If 'members' is TRUE, a vector of pointers to the members of the risk sets, in order. The 'n.events' first are the events. If 'members' is FALSE, 'riskset' is NULL.
size	The sizes of the risk sets.
n.events	The number of events in each risk set.
sample_fraction	If 'members' is TRUE, the sampling fraction of survivors in each risk set.

Note

Can be used to "sample the risk sets".
