Mixtures of proportional hazard models

Description

This package fits multiple variable mixtures of various parametric proportional hazard models using the EM-Algorithm. Proportionality restrictions can be imposed on the latent groups and/or on the variables. Several survival distributions can be specified. Missing values are allowed. Independence is assumed over the single variables.
