Univariate significance analyses via the Wald tests (Witten & Tibshirani 2010; Emura et al. 2019) based on
association between individual features and survival.
Usage
uni.Wald(t.vec, d.vec, X.mat)
Value
beta
Estimated regression coefficients
Z
Z-value for testing H_0: beta=0 (Wald test)
P
P-value for testing H_0: beta=0 (Wald test)
Arguments
t.vec
Vector of survival times (time to either death or censoring)
d.vec
Vector of censoring indicators, 1=death, 0=censoring
X.mat
n by p matrix of covariates, where n is the sample size and p is the number of covariates
