fssg: Flexsurv “Shotgun” Approach

This package is designed to provide a simple, one-line-of-code approach to testing a variety of parametric survival distributions on a data set. This is done by running 50+ different parametric survival curves in order to see which one may be best suited to describing your data!

Installation

You can install the package through CRAN using:

install.packages('fssg')

You can install the development version of fssg like so:

devtools::install_github('jmrothen/fssg')

Example

The package is designed to be mostly contained to one function, fssg. Simply provide a survival formula, and receive a table of each model run, and how it fits:

library(fssg)

# sample dataset available in <survival>
library(survival)
fssg(Surv(time, status)~1, data=aml, dump_models = TRUE)

For a more in-depth example, please refer to the vignette titled fssg.

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
