R2-type coefficients for Cox proportional hazards models

Description

R2-type Coefficients for Cox proportional hazards models

Usage

OXS(Surv.rsp, lp, lp0)
Nagelk(Surv.rsp, lp, lp0)
XO(Surv.rsp, lp, lp0)

Arguments

Surv.rsp

A Surv(.,.) object containing to the outcome of the test data.

lp

The vector of predictors.

lp0

The vector of predictors obtained from the covariate-free null model.

Details

The OXS, Nagelk and XO functions implement three types of R2 coefficients for right-censored time-to-event data: (a) The coefficient proposed by O'Quigley et al. (2005) (OXS), (b) the coefficient proposed by Nagelkerke (1991) (Nagelk) and (c) the coefficient proposed by Xu and O'Quigley (1999) (XO).

Because the OXS, Nagelk and XO functions assume that lp and lpnew were derived from a correctly specified Cox proportional hazards model, estimates obtained from these functions are only valid if the Cox model holds.

Value

The estimated R2 coefficient.
