I have installed R version 1 for windows and have installed the survival5 package in the library folder, but the base package only seems to partially acknowledge survival5's presence. How have I screwed up? The diagnostics are as follows... >library(survival5) ** no warning given.. seems OK ** >help(package=survival5) **this gives the contents of the package correctly,

My attempt to get R running in Windows 3.11 didn't go very far. I have read the FAQ and install.tex carefully. What am I missing? Here is the step: 1. From statlib I got rexe.zip (and rbeta.zip, but this one seems for windows 95 only?). 2. On unzipping I got 8 files, including rb1.exe, and a sub- dir win32s, which I copied to windows/system. (There is no setup.exe,

Dear R-Helpers: What other references are there on the capabilities of the survival5 package other than the help files and the chapter on survival analysis in every edition of Modern Applied Statistics with S? I'm thinking of something like "An Introduction to Survival Analysis in R" with worked examples that might complement or extend the chapter in MASS. Thanks, Spencer

Dear all, in survival5, kidney data set, appears in help page: "survival5 does not reproduce the original analysis."

Is there a way to determine the SVD of a complex matrix using R? (I'm using v1.0.1 and svd() won't do the trick). I know LAPACK has a function to do this.

I downloaded binary of survival5 for windows95 (also the splines, date). The function survsum shows up in content, has a help page, but the function itself is missing. Can we cut and paste the survsum from survival4 ? Mai Zhou P.S. I am not picking on R, not even complaining. I think R is great and I am try to contribute my (small) part to make it even better in way of bug report (or

Dear all, Are there functions or packages in R that can handle interval-censored data? I have looked in various packages (such as survival5 or event), but it seems that only right-censored data can be analysed. More generally, are there methods to analyse both interval-censored observations and right-censored observations in the same data set? Thanks in advance. Emmanuel Paradis

Hi, in R there is the function "density" which computes kernel density estimates. Is there a "cumulative" version of it? Something like they have in Matlab: http://www.mathworks.nl/help/toolbox/stats/ksdensity.html I know there is ecdf, but I'm not sure it's based on kernel density smoothing.

Anyone using the penalised partial likelihood routines in survival5 should update their version. A bug has been fixed in the S package: in coxph() models with penalised likelihood and strata it was possible in some circumstances to get an infinite loop or perhaps an incorrect answer. The new version (2.3) is on cran.r-project.org and will percolate through CRAN in the next few days. -thomas

I'm trying to get a grasp of maximum-likelihood estimation and would like to find a package that performs mle (hopefully a simple example). It seems as if there are plenty of packages that make use of different types of likelihood estimators, but none are of a simple, "newbie" type. Does anyone have a suggestion for which package would be the best for a mle example? Thanks, Jeff.
