Description

Calculate non-parametric estimate for case II interval censored survival function

Usage

IC2Pro(L, R, control = IC2Control(), ...)

Arguments

L

The numeric vector of left endpoints of censoring interval, the first element of Surv when type=’interval2’.

R

The numeric vector of right endpoints of censoring interval, the second element of Surv function when type=’interval2’.

control

An object as created by IC2Control

...

Additional arguments

Value

An object of class IC2Pro that contains the following fields: error: convergence result; strata: dimensions of df_tab; s: unique ordered elements of {0, L_{i}, R_{i}, Inf} ; S: the survival function; df_tab: the data frame of survival intervals and survival probabilities for each interval.
