flex.spline: Flexible Parametric EM Algorithm Main Function.

In gygygy1989/psmcure: Semiparametric Estimation of the Cure Fraction in Population-based Cancer Survival Analysis

Description

Flexible Parametric EM Algorithm Main Function.

Usage

flex.spline(Time, Status, Z, X, Mbigs, Ibigs, r, b, beta, w, mort.s,
  mort.h, link = "logit", emmax = 100, eps = 1e-10)

Arguments

Time	Survival time from data set.
Status	Right censoring status: 1 is death, 0 is censored.
Z	The covariates for cure link function.
X	The covaraites for latency survival function.
Mbigs	M spline basis.
Ibigs	I spline basis.
r	Initial value of r.
b	Initial value of b.
beta	Initial value of beta.
w	Initial value of w.
mort.s	background survival rate from life table.
mort.h	background hazard rate from life table.
link	The type of cure rate link function, including "logit","probit", and "cloglog".
emmax	The maximum iteration is 100.
eps	The stopping criteria for convergence is 1e-7.

Value

None
