npcure: An R Package for Nonparametric Inference in Mixture Cure Models
(Technische Universitaet Wien, 2021)
[Abstract] Mixture cure models have been widely used to analyze survival data with a cure fraction. They assume that a subgroup of the individuals under study will never experience the event (cured subjects). So, the goal ...
Nonparametric Kernel Estimation of the Probability of Cure in a Mixture Cure Model when the Cure Status is Partially Observed
(Sage, 2022-08-01)
[Abstract] Cure models are a class of time-to-event models where a proportion of individuals will never experience the event of interest. The lifetimes of these so-called cured individuals are always censored. It is usually ...
survPresmooth: An R Package for Presmoothed Estimation in Survival Analysis
(American Statistical Association, 2013-08)
[Abstract] The survPresmooth package for R implements nonparametric presmoothed estimators of the main functions studied in survival analysis (survival, density, hazard and cumulative hazard functions). Presmoothed versions ...
A Product-Limit Estimator of the Conditional Survival Function When Cure Status Is Partially Known
(Wiley, 2021-03-01)
[Abstract] We introduce a nonparametric estimator of the conditional survival function in the mixture cure model for right-censored data when cure status is partially known. The estimator is developed for the setting of a ...
