Analyzing Non-proportional Hazards: Use of the MRH Package

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this manuscript we demonstrate the analysis of right-censored survival outcomes using the MRH package in R. The MRH package implements the multi-resolution hazard (MRH) model, which is a Polya-tree based, Bayesian semi-parametric method for flexible estimation of the hazard rate and covariate effects. The package allows for covariates to be included under the proportional and non-proportional hazards assumption, and for robust estimation of the hazard rate in periods of sparsely observed failures via a "pruning" tool.
