Overview

About

Maintained by Wenjie WangCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗Issues ↗

Contains implementations of recurrent event data analysis routines including (1) survival and recurrent event data simulation from stochastic process point of view by the thinning method proposed by Lewis and Shedler (1979) doi:10.1002/nav.3800260304 and the inversion method introduced in Cinlar (1975, ISBN:978-0486497976), (2) the mean cumulative function (MCF) estimation by the Nelson-Aalen estimator of the cumulative hazard rate function, (3) two-sample recurrent event responses comparison with the pseudo-score tests proposed by Lawless and Nadeau (1995) doi:10.2307/1269617, (4) gamma frailty model with spline rate function following Fu, et al. (2016) doi:10.1080/10543406.2014.992524.

Changes in 0.5.6

Minor changes

Moved packages {ggplot2} and {grDevices} to *Suggests* as they are needed for plot() methods only.
Updated testing examples for ggplot objects.

From NEWS.md in the release

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("reda", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("wenjie2wang/reda")

Development version from wenjie2wang/reda. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-reda

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-reda

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-reda

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
