check.dist

Graphical goodness-of-fit test


Description

Comparison of the cumulative hazards functions for a semi-parametric and a parametric model.

Usage

check.dist(sp, pp, main = NULL, col = 1:2, lty = 1:2, printLegend = TRUE)

Arguments

sp

An object of type "coxreg", typically output from coxreg

pp

An object of type "phreg", typically output from phreg

main

Header for the plot. Default is distribution and "cumulative hazard function"

col

Line colors. should be NULL (black lines) or of length 2

lty

line types.

printLegend

Should a legend be printed? Default is TRUE.

Details

For the moment only a graphical comparison. The arguments sp and pp may be swapped.

Value

No return value.
