class statsmodels.duration.hazard_regression.PHReg(endog, exog, status=None, entry=None, strata=None, offset=None, ties='breslow', missing='drop', **kwargs)

Cox Proportional Hazards Regression Model

The Cox PH Model is for right censored data.

Parameters

endogarray_like

The observed times (event or censoring)

exog2D array_like

The covariates or exogeneous variables

statusarray_like

The censoring status values; status=1 indicates that an event occurred (e.g. failure or death), status=0 indicates that the observation was right censored. If None, defaults to status=1 for all cases.

entryarray_like

The entry times, if left truncation occurs

strataarray_like

Stratum labels. If None, all observations are taken to be in a single stratum.

tiesstr

The method used to handle tied times, must be either ‘breslow’ or ‘efron’.

offsetarray_like

Array of offset values

missingstr

The method used to handle missing data

Notes

Proportional hazards regression models should not include an explicit or implicit intercept. The effect of an intercept is not identified using the partial likelihood approach.

endog, event, strata, entry, and the first dimension of exog all must have the same length
