MRHdata


This data set is a simulated survival data set, which is useful for code examples, particularly in the vignette.  In addition to the failure times and a censoring variable, the data set also includes gender, treatment, and age as covariates.  This treatment hazards are non-proportional, and there are periods of sparse observations and high rates of censoring, which is similar to studies with longer follow-up periods.


Used on survival data to jointly estimate the hazard rate and the effects of covariates on failure times. Can accommodate covariates under the proportional and non-proportional hazards setting, and is ideal for analysis of survival data with long-term follow-up.

MRHdata function

A data frame with 3000 observations on the following 5 variables:
  <dl>
    <dt><code>time</code></dt><dd>A numeric vector containing the survival time from start of treatment to failure.</dd> <dt><code>delta</code></dt><dd>A numeric vector of the censoring variable, which equals '1' if the failure is observed, and '0' otherwise.</dd> <dt><code>gender</code></dt><dd>A numeric binary vector, with 0 denoting males and 1 denoting females.</dd> <dt><code>treatment</code></dt><dd>A numeric vector with three treatment groups.  The treatment hazard rates were simulated under the non-proportional hazards assumption.</dd> <dt><code>age</code></dt><dd>A numeric vector for age, with the measurements standardized.</dd> </dl>
