Dear R-community, I have tried to estimate an accelerated failure time(AFT) and proportional hazard (PH) parametric survival model with time-independent and time-dependent covariates. For that purpose, I have used the eha package.
Please, consider this example: weibullph <- phreg(Surv(sta,time,S) ~ TDC1 + TIC1, dist="weibull", data.frame=Data) weibullaft<-aftreg(Surv(sta,time,S) ~ TDC1 + TIC1, dist="weibull", data.frame=Data) ## aftreg gives error when I add ID argument... Error in aftreg.fit(X, Y, dist, strats, offset, init, shape, id, control, : Overlapping intervals for id 2 >From help(aftreg): id If there are more than one spell per individual, it is essential to keep spells together by the id argument. This allows for time-varying covariates. data table: Data S sta time TDC1 total_time TIC1 ID A 1 0 1 48.50 1 1 1 B 0 0 1 65.96 2 1 2 B 1 1 2 65.08 2 1 2 C 0 0 1 0.00 2 4 3 C 1 1 2 0.00 2 4 3 D 0 0 1 72.74 2 5 4 D 1 1 2 72.52 2 5 4 E 0 0 1 61.84 2 3 5 E 0 1 2 60.56 2 3 5 F 0 0 1 35.04 4 2 6 F 0 1 2 36.97 4 2 6 F 0 2 3 37.92 4 2 6 F 1 3 4 39.01 4 2 6 time - time to event sta - starting time TDC - time dependent covariates TIC - time independent covariate total_time - total time at risk ID - ID 1- What happens if the ID is not included? 2- How can I solve this error? 3- Why the phreg function does not need an ID?
