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
::
pip install lifelines
Or getting the bleeding edge version with:
::
pip install git+https://github.com/CamDavidsonPilon/lifelines.git
or upgrade with
::
pip install --upgrade git+https://github.com/CamDavidsonPilon/lifelines.git
from the command line.
*lifelines* Documentation and an Intro to Survival Analysis
