makediff3 function

Diffmatrix

Diffmatrix

The first observation is assumed to be not censored (delta = 1). The Difference is computed between data point i

and its neighbour that has the largest survival time but smaller than y_i, the survival time of i.

makediff3(Y, delta)

Arguments

  • Y: [vector(1)]

    Ordered vector of survival times.

  • delta: [vector(1)]

    Vector of status.

Returns

[Diffmatrix(1)] Object of class Diffmatrix with elements:

Typetype of makediff function used to compute differences between neighbours.
Matmatrix used to compute differences between comparable data points.

Examples

Y <- c(1,3,3.5,4,8); delta <- c(0,0,1,1,0); makediff3(Y, delta)
