Re: [R] extended Kalman filter for survival data

2010-06-12 Thread Christos Argyropoulos






If you mean this paper by Fahrmeir: 
http://biomet.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/81/2/317 I would 
recommend  BayesX: http://www.stat.uni-muenchen.de/~bayesx/.
BayesX interfaces with R and estimates discrete (and continuous) time survival 
data with penalized regression methods.
If you are looking for a bona fide Bayesian survival analysis method and do not 
wish to spend a lot of time coming up and debugging your MCMC implementations 
in WinBUGS/JAGS/OpenBUGS this would be the way to go.
If you are strictly after frequentist analyses then you can still run them with 
BayesX (look at the REML chapter in the manual).

 Subject: [R] extended Kalman filter for survival data
 
 Dear all,
 
 I'm looking for an implementation of the generalized extended Kalman filter
 for survival data, presented in this article Fahrmeir (1994) - 'dynamic
 modelling for discrete time survival data'. The same author also publish a
 Bayesian version of the algorithm 'dynamic discrete-time duration models'.
 
 The maintainer of the Survival task view advises me to take a look at
 http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/sspir/index.html
 Unfortunately, the pkg implements only dynamic GLM.
 
 That's why I'm asking on this list, if someone knows a package for this
 implementation?
 
 Thanks in advance
 
 Christophe

Thanks Christos.

BayesX was strongly recommended also by Fahrmeir and other people of  
that field. So it is clearly where I need to look at!
