 I. Problem 1:
 1. If I only use intercept without any covariates, I can have 'right'
 cumulative incidence curves (2 for 2 competing risks):
 library(Survival)


 That shouldn't work;)

This is from an example from the Survival package...


  fitCI - survfit(Surv(stop, status*as.numeric(event), type=mstate) ~
 1,data=mgus1, subset=(start==0))
 plot(fitCI)
 2. If I include one variate ('sex'), I get 4 curves (attached; I guess
 because there are two levels in 'sex' and 2 competing risks):
 fitCI - survfit(Surv(stop, status*as.numeric(event), type=mstate)
 ~sex,data=mgus1, subset=(start==0))
 plot(fitCI)
 However, I want to just have 2 cumulative incidence curves estimated from
 several covariates (such as 'sex', 'age', 'alb', etc. in mgus1). Could you
 please help me to do that? Thank you very much!


 I suggest that you check the Task Views, under 'Survival' and 'Multistate
 Models', for instance the 'cmprsk' and 'timereg' packages.


  II. Problem 2:
 I try using an example from sourcecode.pdf:
 fit - survfit(Surv(time, status, type=’mstate’) ~ sex, data=mine)
 but where can I have the 'mine' data? Thank you!


 Where do you find 'sourcecode.pdf'?

It's from

Re: [R] combine glmnet and coxph (and survfit) with strata()

 I'm also curious how to use glmnet with survfit -- specifically, for use
 with interval regression (which, under the hood, is implemented using
 survfit).  Can you show how you converted your Surv object formula to a
 design matrix for use with glmnet?

 Thanks,

 I know that if there is no such strata(), I can estimate coefficients from
 glmnet and use ...init=selectedBeta,iter=0) in the coxph. Please advise
 me or also correct me if I'm wrong.

 Thank you very much!

[R] computational cost of the survpack or survival support vector machine package

2013-12-07 Thread Jieyue Li
Dear All,

I'm trying using the survpack to apply support vector machines on survival
analysis, but I find that it's very slow. I use a data frame with 1082 rows
and 8 columns but it seems to run forever... Does anyone have any insight
or suggestion to this or have better knowledge of another R package that
can handle this? Thank you very much!

Best,

Jieyue

[R] ask for Dimension reduction, Manifold Learning R-package

2013-01-11 Thread Jieyue Li
Dear All,

Does anyone know whether there is a R package existed for dimension
reduction (manifold learning) methods, especially like Laplacian Eigenmaps?
Thanks a lot!


Best,
