mlr_measures_surv.calib_alpha: Van Houwelingen's Alpha Survival Measure

mlr_measures_surv.calib_alphaR Documentation

Van Houwelingen's Alpha Survival Measure

Description

This calibration method is defined by estimating

α = ∑ δ_i / ∑ H_i(t_i)

where δ is the observed censoring indicator from the test data, H_i is the predicted cumulative hazard, and t_i is the observed survival time.

The standard error is given by

exp(1/√{∑ δ_i})

The model is well calibrated if the estimated α coefficient is equal to 1.

Dictionary

This Measure can be instantiated via the dictionary mlr_measures or with the associated sugar function msr():
