kmplt

A data frame containing <em>at least</em> the two columns ``censored'' and ``True_STs''. Where ``censored'' contains the censorship status of the subject as either ``0/F'' for 
<squote>uncensored subjects</squote> or ``$1$/T'' for <squote>censored subjects</squote>.
This information is essential to be able to plot the KM curve.

data

A string of characters denoting the title of the plot produced.

This function plots the survival curve for the provided data set as a Kaplan Meier plot. It can only be used for visualization and returns no numeric values.

Kaplan Meier

The package is the R-version of the C-based software \bold{CASPAR} (Kaderali,2006: \url{http://bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org/content/22/12/1495}). It is meant to help predict survival times in the presence of high-dimensional explanatory covariates. The model is a piecewise baseline hazard Cox regression model with an Lq-norm based prior that selects for the most important regression coefficients, and in turn
the most relevant covariates for survival analysis. It was primarily tried on gene expression and aCGH data, but can be used on any other type of high-dimensional data and in
disciplines other than biology and medicine.
