curesurv (version 0.1.2)

dsndtheta_multneh: dsndtheta_multneh function

Description

Partial derivatives of sn (net survival) by theta for the link_tau="loglinear" model

Usage

dsndtheta_multneh(z_tau, z_alpha, x, object, cumLexctopred = NULL, Dpi = NULL)

Arguments

z_tau

Covariates matrix acting on time-to-null parameter.

z_alpha

Covariates matrix acting on parameter alpha of the density of time-to-null excess hazard model

x

time at which the predictions are provided

object

ouput from a model implemented in curesurv

cumLexctopred

pre prediction obtained from cumLexc_mul_topred, estimated if NULL

Dpi

partial derivative of pi according to theta, if NULL will be calculated
