R-cran-CompetingRiskFrailty-2.0-6mdv2011.0.src.rpm

Description:

The package offers a fitting of smooth varying coefficients in a
competing risks modelling of hazards as well as estimating of the
frailties (or unobserved heterogenities) for clustered observations.
Nonparametric penalized spline (p-spline) fitting of smooth covariates
effects is proposed. As a spline basis truncated polynomial functions
are chosen. The frailties are also fitted (via the EM-algoritghm) in a
flexible way using a penalizied mixture of gamma distributions.
