val.surv
?I've ? attached a sample of the data sets, this is my full code.
#R 2.13
#library(survival)
#library(Hmisc)
#library(splines)
library(rms)
train<-as.data.frame( train<-read.csv("G:\\train.txt", header=T, sep="\t"))
test<-as.data.frame( test<-read.table("G:\\test.txt", header=T, sep="\t"))
f.1<-cph(Surv(time,event)~age, x=T, y=T,surv=T, data=train)
val.surv(f.1, newdata=test, u=10)
#plot(calibrate(f.1, u=30, B=20))

And yes it is a data frame. What is a data.frame? test and train may be dataframes, but test[, "age"] is not a dataframe. > So I extracted age, time and event. Code? The code you offered before would have created a newdata object (yes, a data.frame) with a single column bearing the same name as the vector argument ,,,,, "test1". Not named "age". Try it. do str on such an object: str(dataframe(test1)) > So test is data frame,(age, time, event). does that suffice? It certainly does not allow me to reproduce the error you got (which I still think is probably related to the structure of your argument to newdata.) That's all I can say without data and code. --David. > > > > ________________________________ > From: David Winsemius <dwinsemius at comcast.net> > > Cc: "r-help at R-project.org" <r-help at r-project.org> > Sent: Sunday, August 21, 2011 3:19 AM > Subject: Re: [R] val.surv > > > On Aug 20, 2011, at 8:08 PM, Salvo Mac wrote: > >> Thanks David >> >> However, I tried your trick on val.surv with newdata=test['age'] but still didn't work. >> Still gives the same error message: >> >> Error in val.surv(f.1, newdata = test1["age"], u = 10) : >>? ? dims [product 1797] do not match the length of object [2496] >> In addition: Warning message: >> In est.surv + S[, 1] : >>? ? longer object length is not a multiple of shorter object length >> > > As I said (and you did > not act? upon): > > The fundamental thing you are doing wrong for q1? is failing to unambiguously describe the test object. > > I said it was a guess.

I would think that if test were a dataframe then wrapping data.frame around a vector might not get it named correctly as 'age'. You might try newdata= test['age']. Just a guess. >> >>> >>>? ? 2.?

The frailty function is part of the underlying survival package and I do not see it mentioned in the index for Harrell's RMS text. You will probably need to wait until Frank comes across this. He is generally very good about correction my errors and knowledge gaps. >> >>> >> David Winsemius, MD West Hartford, CT -------------- next part -------------- An embedded and charset-unspecified text was scrubbed...
