h2o.coxph: Trains a Cox Proportional Hazards Model (CoxPH) on an H2O dataset

Description

Trains a Cox Proportional Hazards Model (CoxPH) on an H2O dataset

Usage

h2o.coxph(x, event_column, training_frame, model_id = NULL,
  start_column = NULL, stop_column = NULL, weights_column = NULL,
  offset_column = NULL, stratify_by = NULL, ties = c("efron", "breslow"),
  init = 0, lre_min = 9, max_iterations = 20, interactions = NULL,
  interaction_pairs = NULL, interactions_only = NULL,
  use_all_factor_levels = FALSE)

Arguments

x

(Optional) A vector containing the names or indices of the predictor variables to use in building the model. If x is missing, then all columns except event_column, start_column and stop_column are used.

event_column

The name of binary data column in the training frame indicating the occurrence of an event.

training_frame

Id of the training data frame.

model_id

Destination id for this model; auto-generated if not specified.

start_column

Start Time Column.

stop_column

Stop Time Column.

weights_column

Column with observation weights. Giving some observation a weight of zero is equivalent to excluding it from the dataset; giving an observation a relative weight of 2 is equivalent to repeating that row twice. Negative weights are not allowed. Note: Weights are per-row observation weights and do not increase the size of the data frame. This is typically the number of times a row is repeated, but non-integer values are supported as well. During training, rows with higher weights matter more, due to the larger loss function pre-factor.

offset_column

Offset column. This will be added to the combination of columns before applying the link function.

stratify_by

List of columns to use for stratification.

ties

Method for Handling Ties. Must be one of: "efron", "breslow". Defaults to efron.

init

Coefficient starting value. Defaults to 0.

lre_min

Minimum log-relative error. Defaults to 9.

max_iterations

Maximum number of iterations. Defaults to 20.

interactions

A list of predictor column indices to interact. All pairwise combinations will be computed for the list.

interaction_pairs

A list of pairwise (first order) column interactions.

interactions_only

A list of columns that should only be used to create interactions but should not itself participate in model training.

use_all_factor_levels

Logical. (Internal. For development only!) Indicates whether to use all factor levels. Defaults to FALSE.
