baseHaz_cpp: C++ Fast Baseline Hazard Estimation

In riskRegression: Risk Regression Models and Prediction Scores for Survival Analysis with Competing Risks

C++ Fast Baseline Hazard Estimation

Description

C++ function to estimate the baseline hazard from a Cox Model

Usage

baseHaz_cpp(
  starttimes,
  stoptimes,
  status,
  eXb,
  strata,
  predtimes,
  emaxtimes,
  nPatients,
  nStrata,
  cause,
  Efron
)

Arguments

starttimes	a vector of times (begin at risk period).
stoptimes	a vector of times (end at risk period).
status	a vector indicating censoring or event.
eXb	a numeric vector (exponential of the linear predictor).
strata	a vector of integers (index of the strata for each observation).
predtimes	a vector of times (time at which to evaluate the hazard). Must be sorted.
emaxtimes	another vector of times, one per strata (last observation time in each strata).
nPatients	number of observations.
nStrata	number of strata
cause	the status value corresponding to event.
Efron	whether Efron or Breslow estimator should be used in presence of ties.

Details

WARNING stoptimes status eXb and strata must be sorted by strata, stoptimes, and status
