About

Maintained by Imad El BadisyFirst published 2026-04-241 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

A modular toolkit for interpretable survival machine learning with a unified interface for fitting, prediction, evaluation, and interpretation. It includes semiparametric, parametric, tree-based, ensemble, boosting, kernel, and deep-learning survival learners, together with benchmarking, scoring, calibration, and model-agnostic interpretation utilities. Representative methodological anchors include Cox (1972) doi:10.1111/j.2517-6161.1972.tb00899.x, Royston and Parmar (2002) doi:10.1002/sim.1203, Ishwaran et al.

Install

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

install.packages("survalis", 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("ielbadisy/survalis")

Development version from ielbadisy/survalis. 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-survalis

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

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-survalis

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

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