issues with calling predict.coxph.penal (survival) inside a function
...is a reasonable chance that it won't make this already overdue release. In the meantime, here is a workaround that I have sometimes used in other situations. Inside your function do the following: fit a new coxph model with fixed coefficients, and do prediction on that. myfun <- function(oldfit, subset) { newX <- model.matrix(oldfit)[subset,] newY <- oldfit$y[subset] newfit <- coxph(newY ~ newX, iter=0, init=coef(oldfit)) newfit$var <- oldfit$var predict(newfit) } If the subset is all of a particular strata, as you indicated, then all of the prediction...

trying to obtain same nls parameters as in example
Dear R-users; I'm working with a a dataset that was previously used to fit a nonlinear model of the form: Y ~ a * (1 + b * log(1 - c * X^d)) The parameters published elsewhere are: a = 1.758863, b = .217217, c = .99031, and d = .054589 However, there is no way I can replicate this result. I've tried several options (including SAS) w/o success. The data is: X <-
