Have you reviewed the capabilities of the eha package? http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/eha/eha.pdf I thought that I had seen examples of the use of the Design package (and presumably this would have applied to the rms package) for fitting Gompertz models in an accelerated failure time framework, but checking Harrell's RMS text fails to confirm this memory. -- David Winsemius, MD West Hartford, CT ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
