Learn R Programming

⚠️There's a newer version (1.0.1) of this package.Take me there.

This is an R package for fitting semiparametric shared frailty models with the EM algorithm.

I am currently the maintainer and developer, so any suggestions are more than welcome. The stable version may be installed from CRAN:

install.packages("frailtyEM")

and the development version from GitHub:

devtools::install_github("teddybalan/frailtyEM")

The bulk of the documentation of the package can be found in the vignette. If the package is installed from GitHub, then the vignette is installed if the pacakge is installed like this:

devtools::install_github("teddybalan/frailtyEM", build_vignettes = TRUE)
