spCopulaCoxph: Fit Marginal Bayesian Proportional Hazards Model

Description

This function fits a marginal Bayesian proportional hazards model for point-referenced right censored time-to-event data.

Usage

spCopulaCoxph(y, delta, x=NULL, s, prediction, prior, mcmc, state, RandomIntervals=FALSE, data=sys.frame(sys.parent()), na.action=na.fail, work.dir=NULL)

Arguments

y
an n by 1 vector giving the survival times.
delta
an n by 1 vector indicating whether it is right censored (=0) or not (=1).
x
an n by p matrix of covariates without intercept. The default is NULL, indicating no covariates included.
s
an n by d matrix of UMT coordinates, where d is the dimension of space.
prediction
a list giving the information used to obtain conditional inferences. The list includes the following elements: spred and xpred giving the n by 2 new locations and corresponding n by p covariates matrix, respectively, used for prediction .
prior
a list giving the prior information. The list includes the following parameter: M an integer giving the total number of cut points for baseline hazard. See Zhou, Hanson and Knapp (2015) for more detailed hyperprior specifications.
mcmc
a list giving the MCMC parameters. The list must include the following elements: nburn an integer giving the number of burn-in scans, nskip an integer giving the thinning interval, nsave an integer giving the total number of scans to be saved, ndisplay an integer giving the number of saved scans to be displayed on screen (the function reports on the screen when every ndisplay iterations have been carried out).
state
a list giving the current value of the parameters. This list is used if the current analysis is the continuation of a previous analysis.
RandomIntervals
indicate if random cut ponts for baseline hazard is need. The default is TRUE.
data
data frame.
na.action
a function that indicates what should happen when the data contain NAs. The default action (na.fail) causes spCopulaCoxph to print an error message and terminate if there are any incomplete observations.
work.dir
working directory.

Value

The results include the MCMC chains for the parameters discussed in Zhou, Hanson and Knapp (2015). Use names to find out what they are.

Details

This function fits a marginal Bayesian proportional hazards model (Zhou, Hanson and Knapp, 2015) for point-referenced right censored time-to-event data.
