similar to: rpart with interval censored data crashes R

Can anybody give me a neat example of interval censored data analysis codes in R? Given that suvreg(Surv(c(1,1,NA,3),c(2,NA,2,3),type="interval2")~1) works why does survreg(Surv(data[,1],data[,2],type="interval2")~1) not work where data is : T.1 T.2 Status 1 0.0000000 0.62873036 1 2 0.0000000 2.07039068 1 3 0.0000000

Hi, I am wondering how to specify interval-censored data in coxph? The example in the help page summary(coxph(Surv(start, stop, event) ~ x, data = test2)) is for counting process data, is the counting process data the same as interval-censored data? Thanks __________________________________

Can survreg() handle interval-censored data like the documentation says? I ask because the command: survreg(Surv(start, stop, event) ~ 1, data = heart) fails with the error message Invalid survival type yet the documentation for Surv() states: "Presently, the only methods allowing interval censored data are the parametric models computed by 'survreg'"

Hello, I have interval censored data, censored between (0, 100). I used the tobit function in the AER package which in turn backs on survreg. Actually I'm struggling with the distribution. Data is asymmetrically distributed, so first choice would be a Weibull distribution. Unfortunately the Weibull doesn't allow for zero values in time data, as it requires x > 0. So I tried the

I tried your code, but it's giving the following error.. Error in match.fun(FUN) : argument "FUN" is missing, with no default

Hi, I am a new user of R 2.8.1. I use Tinn-R for code editing. I use a windows 2003 system with 1 GB RAM. I am interested to generate dashboard and reports based on data from MS Access. These reports need to be posted on a weekly basis to the web. The reporting interface should provide facilities for "what if" scenarios. Is it possible to interface R analysis results to good open

Hello, I use rpart to predict survival time and have a problem in interpreting the output of ?estimated rate?. Here is an example of what I do: > stagec <- > read.table("http://www.stanford.edu/class/stats202/DATA/stagec.data", > col.names=c("pgtime", "pgstat", "age","eet", "g2", "grade", "gleason", >

Hi, I need to get mean and variance of right censored data. How can I do that? I have a vector of values (called a) and vector of booleans (whether value is censored) (called b). What to do with this? Sorry, I'm R beginner. Thank you! Pete

One set of data has censored (less-than detection limits) water chemistry concentrations for 80-100% of all observations. My initial trial-and-error attempts to apply the cenboxplot() method suggests that it has an upper limit to the percentage of censored observations. I do not see this limit in Dennis Helsel's second edition. Has anyone experience plotting censored data and can provide

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

Dear R users, I tried to analysis the hazard function of some data by coxph function in survival package. The type of the data include "left-censored", "right-censored", "both right-censored and left-censored" (btw, does this has a technical term?), and "complete" ones. I noticed that event (one parameter in "Surv()") might be an indicator for the

Dear list, I would like to plot the empirical cumulative distribution of the time needed by a treatment to attain a certain goal. A number of experiments is run with a strict time limit. In some experiments the goal is attained before the time limit, in other experiments time expires before the goal is attained. The situation is very similar to survivial analysis with censored data. I tryed

Hi, what is the best way to estimate a tobit(truncated) regression model in R ? Is there already a packet available ?

Hello there. I have fitted a rpart model. > rpartModel <- rpart(y~., data=data.frame(y=y,x=x),method="class", ....) and can use rpart$where to find out the terminal nodes that each observations belongs. Now, I have a set of new data and used predict.rpart which seems to give only the predicted value with no information similar to rpart$where. May I know how

Hello, ?can i implement this as 10% censored data where t gives me failure and x censored.

Dear R users, I'm working with the rpart package and want to evaluate the performance of user defined split functions. I have some problems in understanding the meaning of the xval argument in the two functions rpart.control and xpred.rpart. In the former it is defined as the number of cross-validations while in the latter it is defined as the number of cross-validation groups. If I am

Does Surv in psm handle interval2 data? The argument list seems to indicate it does but I get an error. Thanks, Chris # code library('survival') left <- c(1, 3, 5, NA) right <-c(2, 3, NA, 4) Surv(left, right, type='interval2') survreg(Surv(left, right, type='interval2') ~ 1) library('rms') Surv(left, right, type='interval2') # error args(Surv)

Hi, I am trying to get the maximum likelihood estimator for lognormal distribution with censored data;when we have left, interval and right censord. I built my code in R, by writing the deriving of log likelihood function and using newton raphson method but my estimators were too high " overestimation", where the values exceed the 1000 in some runing of my code. is there any one can

Hi, I have a right-censored (positive) random variable (e.g. failure times subject to right censoring) that is observed for N subjects: Y_i, I = 1, 2, ..., N. Note that Y_i = min(T_i, C_i), where T_i is the true failure time and C_i is the censored time. Let us assume that C_i is independent of T_i. Now, I would like to generate another random variable U_i, I = 1, 2, ..., N, which is
