SmoothHazard is a package for fitting illness-death (and
survival) model with possibly interval-censored data for
transition toward transient state. Left-truncated and
right-censored data are also allowed. Proportional intensities
regression models allow for covariates on each of the 3
transitions. We use either a parametric approach with Weibull
baseline intensities or a semi-parametric approach with
M-splines approximation of baseline intensities in order to
obtain smooth estimates. Estimation of parameters is conducted
by likelihood maximization in the parametric approach or
penalized likelihood maximization in the semi-parametric
approach.
