Calculate Residuals for a ‘reReg’ Fit

Description

Calculates residuals for a joint frailty scale-change model fitted by 'reReg'. Under the recurrent event model, at each observation time, t, the residual is calculated as

\mbox{observed number of recurrent events at } t- \mbox{expected number of recurrent events at} t.

The expected number of recurrent events at t is calculated by the cumulative rate function at t. Under the failure time model, the residual is calculated as

\Delta - H(t),

where \Delta is the terminal event indicator and H(t) is the cumulative hazard function at t.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'reReg'
residuals(object, model = c("recurrent", "failure"), ...)

Arguments

object

an object of class reReg returned by the reReg() function.

model

a character string specifying whether the residuals will be calculated under the recurrent event model or the failure time model.

...

additional parameters for future development.
