Provide model averaging-based approaches that can be used to predict personalized survival probabilities. The key underlying idea is to approximate the conditional survival function using a weighted average of multiple candidate models. Two scenarios of candidate models are allowed: (Scenario 1) partial linear Cox model and (Scenario 2) time-varying coefficient Cox model. A reference of the underlying methods is Li and Wang (2023) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2023.107759>.

An implementation of popular evaluation metrics that are commonly used in survival prediction including Concordance Index, Brier Score, Integrated Brier Score, 
  Integrated Square Error, Integrated Absolute Error and Mean Absolute Error.

In clinical trials, endpoints are sometimes evaluated with uncertainty. Adjudication is commonly adopted to ensure the study integrity. We propose to use multiple imputation (MI) introduced by Robin (1987) <doi:10.1002/9780470316696> to incorporate these uncertainties if reasonable event probabilities were provided. The method has been applied to Cox Proportional Hazard (PH) model, Kaplan-Meier (KM) estimation and Log-rank test in this package. Moreover, weighted estimations discussed in Cook (2004) <doi:10.1016/S0197-2456(00)00053-2> were also implemented with weights calculated from event probabilities. In conclusion, this package can handle time-to-event analysis if events presented with uncertainty by different methods.

Contains the function 'ggsurvplot()' for drawing easily beautiful
    and 'ready-to-publish' survival curves with the 'number at risk' table
    and 'censoring count plot'. Other functions are also available to plot 
    adjusted curves for `Cox` model and to visually examine 'Cox' model assumptions.
