ctqr (version 1.0)

ctqr-package: Censored and Truncated Quantile Regression

Description

This package can be used to fit quantile regression models to survival data. The true conditional outcome distribution represents a nuisance parameter which is estimated preliminarly. Asymptotic theory of two-steps estimators is used to estimate the asymptotic covariance matrix.
