Overview

About

Produces a smooth estimate of the hazard function for censored data.

Changes in 1.2.6.5

Bug fixes

  • Fixed a crash in muhaz() when a group has zero events. The default pilot bandwidth calculation (bw.pilot <- endz/8/(nz^.2)) divided by zero when sum(delta) == 0, producing Inf and crashing the downstream Fortran routine. nz is now clamped to a minimum of 1, which yields a finite bandwidth and a correctly flat zero hazard estimate when no events are present. Reported and fixed by Ken Beath <ken@kjbeath.id.au>.

Documentation

  • Fixed man/muhaz.object.Rd: replaced \arguments with \value / \describe, resolving an R CMD check NOTE ("Rd files without \usage... \arguments should not be documented without \usage").

  • Added GitHub Actions / R-hub v2 CI configuration for cross-platform checks.
