.turnbull_intervals

Given truncation and censoring sets,
construct disjoint increasing intervals whose
left and right endpoints lie in L and R
and which contain no other members of L and R

internal

A collection of parametric and nonparametric methods for the analysis of survival data. Parametric families implemented include Gompertz-Makeham, exponential and generalized Pareto models and extended models. The package includes an implementation of the nonparametric maximum likelihood estimator for arbitrary truncation and censoring pattern based on Turnbull (1976) <doi:10.1111/j.2517-6161.1976.tb01597.x>, along with graphical goodness-of-fit diagnostics. Parametric models for positive random variables and peaks over threshold models based on extreme value theory are described in Rootzén and Zholud (2017) <doi:10.1007/s10687-017-0305-5>; Belzile et al. (2021) <doi:10.1098/rsos.202097> and Belzile et al. (2022) <doi:10.1146/annurev-statistics-040120-025426>.
