incubate

Estimation and statistical tests on parameters in parametric time-to-event analyses with delay.

internal

Fit parametric models for time-to-event data that show an initial
'incubation period', i.e., a variable delay phase where the hazard is zero. The
delayed Weibull distribution serves as foundational data model. The
specific method of 'MPSE' (maximum product of spacings estimation) and MLE-based methods are used for parameter
estimation. Bootstrap confidence intervals for parameters and significance
tests in a two group setting are provided.
