curesurv (version 0.1.2)

sn_ic_multneh_log: sn_ic_multneh_log function

Description

calculates the net survival at time t. It also provides the related confidence intervals using log method.

Usage

sn_ic_multneh_log(
  z_tau,
  z_alpha,
  x,
  object,
  level = 0.975,
  cumLexctopred = NULL,
  Dsn = 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

level

(1-alpha/2)-order quantile of a normal distribution

cumLexctopred

pre prediction obtained from cumLexc_mul_topred, if NULL will be calculated

Dsn

partial derivates of net survival, if NULL will be calculated
