The goal of psc is to compare a dataset of observations against a parametric model
You can install the development version of psc from GitHub with:
# install.packages("devtools")
::install_github("richJJackson/psc") devtools
This is a basic example which shows you how to solve a common problem:
library(psc)
library(survival)
## basic example code
### Load model
data("surv.mod")
### Load Data
data("data")
### Use 'pscfit' to compare
<- pscfit(surv.mod,data)
surv.psc #> | | | 0% | | | 1% | |= | 1% | |= | 2% | |== | 2% | |== | 3% | |== | 4% | |=== | 4% | |=== | 5% | |==== | 5% | |==== | 6% | |===== | 6% | |===== | 7% | |===== | 8% | |====== | 8% | |======

You can use standard commands for getting a summary of your analysis…
summary(surv.psc)
#> Summary:
#>
#> 100 observations selected from the data cohort for comparison
#> CFM of type flexsurvreg identified
#> linear predictor succesfully obtained with a median of 3.15
