Distance

This function computes distance between two vectors based on L2-norm

Copula based Cox proportional hazards models for survival data subject to dependent
censoring. This approach does not assume that the parameter defining the copula is known. The
dependency parameter is estimated with other finite model parameters by maximizing a Pseudo
likelihood function. The cumulative hazard function is estimated via estimating equations
derived based on martingale ideas. Available copula functions include Frank, Gumbel and Normal
copulas. Only Weibull and lognormal models are allowed for the censoring model, even though any
parametric model that satisfies certain identifiability conditions could be used. Implemented
methods are described in the article "Copula based Cox proportional hazards models for dependent
censoring" by Deresa and Van Keilegom (2024) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2022.2161387>.
