rcens

the weights for the censored observations

rcweight

Computes one step of the EM algorithm by using a Runge-Kutta method of 4th order

Tools for homogeneous and in-homogeneous phase-type distributions.
Methods for functional evaluation, simulation and estimation using the
expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm are provided.
The methods of this package are based on the following references.
