On the Template Gallery there is a github link, you could try creating an issue 
there to get the author’s attention. I notice there is also a reference for a 
blog post too under “support”
https://github.com/goliasz/pio-template-sr 
<https://github.com/goliasz/pio-template-sr>

The Gallery is for any template, not all are known about or used by people here 
and so the template gallery contains either a github link for issues or some 
other support link. The ones donated with PredictionIO point to this email 
list. 

You may become the only expert here. But template authors are the best ones to 
try first.

Hi 

Yes, I am using Survival Regression template from the PredictionIO site.
I have understood quantile and prediction wrt. SR.

Thanks

Hi Rasna,

Folks here tend to respond to things they know about… I guess we don't have a 
lot of experts for Survival Regression… I'll do my best to reply:


Are you using the Survival Regression template from the PredictionIO site?

If so, we can see the exact algorithm in use is AFTSurvivalRegression:
  
https://github.com/goliasz/pio-template-sr/blob/master/src/main/scala/SRAlgorithm.scala#L47
 
<https://github.com/goliasz/pio-template-sr/blob/master/src/main/scala/SRAlgorithm.scala#L47>

Looking at the docs for that algo,
  
https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/ml-classification-regression.html#survival-regression
 
<https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/ml-classification-regression.html#survival-regression>
…the coefficients, intercept and scale are based on the model's fit to the 
training data. Once the PredictionIO engine is trained, these will be constant 
until trained with a different data set.

The quantiles and prediction are the answers for each specific query 
(transform).

If you're seeking a deeper understanding of the prediction, I'm sorry but I do 
not have that expertise!
