| Summary : Multidimensional Penalized Splines for Survival and Net Survival Models
|
Description :
Fits hazard and excess hazard models with multidimensional penalized
splines allowing for time-dependent effects, non-linear effects and
interactions between several continuous covariates. In survival and net
survival analysis, in addition to modelling the effect of time (via the
baseline hazard), one has often to deal with several continuous
covariates and model their functional forms, their time-dependent
effects, and their interactions. Model specification becomes therefore
a complex problem and penalized regression splines represent an
appealing solution to that problem as splines offer the required
flexibility while penalization limits overfitting issues. Current
implementations of penalized survival models can be slow or unstable
and sometimes lack some key features like taking into account expected
mortality to provide net survival and excess hazard estimates. In
contrast, survPen provides an automated, fast, and stable
implementation (thanks to explicit calculation of the derivatives of
the likelihood) and offers a unified framework for multidimensional
penalized hazard and excess hazard models. survPen may be of interest
to those who 1) analyse any kind of time-to-event data: mortality,
disease relapse, machinery breakdown, unemployment, etc 2) wish to
describe the associated hazard and to understand which predictors
impact its dynamics. See Fauvernier et al. (2019a)
< doi:10.21105/joss.01434> for an overview of the package and Fauvernier
et al. (2019b) < doi:10.1111/rssc.12368> for the method.
