R Documentation

Plot the Baseline Cumulative Hazard Function for the Terminal Time

Description

Plot the baseline cumulative hazard function for an reReg object. The 95% confidence interval on the baseline cumulative rate function

Usage

plotHaz(
  x,
  newdata = NULL,
  frailty = NULL,
  showName = FALSE,
  type = c("unrestricted", "bounded", "scaled"),
  smooth = FALSE,
  control = list(),
  ...
)

Arguments

`x`	an object of class `reReg`, returned by the `reReg` function.
`newdata`	an optional data frame contains variables to include in the calculation of the cumulative rate function. If omitted, the baseline rate function will be plotted.
`frailty`	an optional vector to specify the shared frailty for `newdata`. If `newdata` is given and `frailty` is not specified, the
`showName`	an optional logical value indicating whether to label the curves when `newdata` is specified.
`type`	a character string specifying the type of rate function to be plotted. Options are "unrestricted", "scaled", "bounded". See Details.
`smooth`	an optional logical value indicating whether to add a smooth curve obtained from a monotone increasing P-splines implemented in package `scam`.
`control`	a list of control parameters.
`...`	graphical parameters to be passed to methods. These include `xlab`, `ylab`, `main`, and more. See Details.

Details

The argument control consists of options with argument defaults to a list with the following values:

xlab: customizable x-label, default value is "Time".
ylab: customizable y-label, default value is empty.
main: customizable title, default value is "Baseline cumulative hazard function".

These arguments can also be passed down without specifying a control list.

Value

A ggplot object.

Examples

data(simDat)
fm <- Recur(t.start %to% t.stop, id, event, status) ~ x1 + x2

fit <- reReg(fm, data = simDat, model = "cox|cox", B = 0)
## Plot both the baseline cumulative rate and hazard function
plot(fit)
## Plot baseline cumulative hazard function
plotHaz(fit)
plotHaz(fit, smooth = TRUE)
