extendCums

Extends a collection of cumulative hazard functions so that they all
cover the same time range. Cumulative hazards that end before the
maximum observed time are extrapolated linearly using either a
user-supplied rate or the average hazard rate estimated from the
existing cumulative hazard.

Implementation of various statistical models for multivariate
event history data <doi:10.1007/s10985-013-9244-x>. Including multivariate
cumulative incidence models <doi:10.1002/sim.6016>, and bivariate random
effects probit models (Liability models) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2015.01.014>.
Modern methods for survival analysis, including regression modelling (Cox, Fine-Gray,
Ghosh-Lin, Binomial regression) with fast computation of influence functions.

extendCums function

<dl><dt>cumA</dt>
<dd>a cumulative hazard matrix (two columns: time, cumulative hazard)
or a list of such matrices.</dd>
<dt>cumB</dt>
<dd>an optional second cumulative hazard matrix. If provided it is
combined with <code>cumA</code> into a list.</dd>
<dt>extend</dt>
<dd>numeric vector of hazard rates used for extrapolation, one per
cumulative hazard. If <code>NULL</code> (default), rates are estimated as
the ratio of the last cumulative hazard value to the last time point.</dd></dl>
