bcfrailphdv: Bivariate Correlated Frailty Models with Varied Variances
Fit and simulate bivariate correlated frailty models with
proportional hazard structure. Frailty distributions, such as gamma and
lognormal models are supported. Frailty variances of the two subjects
can be varied or equal. Details on the models are available in book of
Wienke (2011,ISBN:978-1-4200-7388-1). Bivariate gamma fit is obtained using the approach given
in Iachine (1995) with modifications. Lognormal fit is based on the approach
by Ripatti and Palmgren (2000) <doi:10.1111/j.0006-341X.2000.01016.x>. Univariate
and bivariate shared gamma frailty model fits are possible. Standard errors of
the estimated covariate coefficients and frailty variance parameter are obtained using
the approach given in Klein and Moeschberger (2003,ISBN:0-387-95399-X).
