Computes the inverse probability of censoring weights for a specific t0 and tau
Description
Computes the inverse probability of censoring weights for a specific t0 and tau i.e. this computes I(t0 < XL < t0+tau)*DL/G(XL) + I(XL>t0+tau)/G(t0+tau) where XL = min(TL, C), TL is the time of the long term event, C is the censoring time, DL =1*(TL<C) and G() is the estimate survival probability for censoring estimated using the Kaplan Meier estimator (see Ghat.FUN)
Usage
Wi.FUN(data, t0, tau, weight.given = NULL)
Arguments
data |
n by k matrix, where k>= 2. A data matrix where the first column is XL = min(TL, C) where TL is the time of the long term event, C is the censoring time, and the second column is DL =1*(TL<C) |
t0 |
the landmark time.. |
tau |
the residual survival time for which probabilities are calculated. |
weight.given |
an optional weight to be incorporated in estimation of this weight |
Value
Inverse probability of censoring weight.
