Survival analysis in Python, including Kaplan Meier, Nelson Aalen and regression

Project description

lifelines
=========

`What is survival analysis and why should I learn
it? <http://lifelines.readthedocs.org/en/latest/Survival%20Analysis%20intro.html>`__
Survival analysis was originally developed and applied heavily by the
actuarial and medical community. Its purpose was to answer *why do
events occur now versus later* under uncertainty (where *events* might
refer to deaths, disease remission, etc.). This is great for researchers
who are interested in measuring lifetimes: they can answer questions
like *what factors might influence deaths?*

But outside of medicine and actuarial science, there are many other
interesting and exciting applications of this lesser-known technique,
for example: - SaaS providers are interested in measuring customer
lifetimes, or time to first behaviours. - sociologists are interested in
measure political parties lifetimes, or relationships, or marriages -
Businesses are interested in what variables affect lifetime value

*lifelines* is a pure Python implementation of the best parts of
survival analysis. We'd love to hear if you are using *lifelines*,
please ping me at [@cmrn\_dp](https://twitter.com/Cmrn\_DP) and let me
know your thoughts on the library.

Installation:
-------------

Dependencies:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The usual Python data stack: Numpy, Scipy, Pandas (a modern version
please), Matplotlib

Installing
^^^^^^^^^^

You can install *lifelines* using

or upgrade with

::

pip install --upgrade git+https://github.com/CamDavidsonPilon/lifelines.git

from the command line.
