How to Create Piecewise Survival Models in R Using flexsurv
Introduction to Piecewise Survival Models in R ===================================================== Survival analysis is a field of study that deals with the time-to-event data, where the event of interest can be censored (i.e., still at risk) if it has not occurred by a certain point in time. In survival analysis, we often fit models to estimate the probability of an event occurring within a specific time frame. One common approach is to use piecewise survival models, which allow us to model different aspects of the data separately.
