+ **Fine-Gray competing risks regression with diagnostic inference in Python.**
30
+
31
+ `pycrr` implements the subdistribution hazard model of Fine & Gray (1999) for
32
+ time-to-event data with competing events. Beyond coefficient estimation, it
33
+ provides a focused **inference and diagnostic workflow**: robust sandwich standard
34
+ errors, per-subject score residuals, a proportional subdistribution hazards test,
35
+ and time-varying covariate effects — matching the R `cmprsk::crr` interface and
36
+ validated numerically against it.

+
93
+ ```python
94
+ # Matches R's crr(cov1=X, cov2=X, tf=log) interface
95
+ model_tv = FineGrayModel().fit(X, Surv(time, event), cov2=X, tf=np.log)

103
+
104
+ ```python
105

106
+ cif = model.predict_cif(X_new, times) # shape (n_new, 200)
107

207
+ ibs = integrated_brier_score(model, X_test, time_test, event_test,
208
+ times=np.linspace(0.5, 8, 50))
209
+ c = concordance(model, X_test, time_test, event_test)
210
+ ```
211
+
212
+ ---
213
+
214
+ ## Validation
215
+
216
+ `pycrr` was validated against `cmprsk::crr` (R 4.5.0, v2.2-12) on:
217
+
218
+ **Synthetic dataset** (`n=500`, generated with `set.seed(42)` in R):
219
+
220
+ | Output | Max \|diff vs R\| |
221
+ |--------|-------------------|
222
+ | Coefficients | 2 × 10⁻⁶ |
223
+ | Model-based SE | 2 × 10⁻⁶ |
224
+ | Robust SE | 5 × 10⁻⁵ |
225
+ | Full 2×2 robust cov matrix | 1 × 10⁻⁴ |
226
+
227
+ **MGUS2** (`n=1,384`, from the R `survival` package, real clinical data):
228
+
229
+ | Output | Max \|diff vs R\| |
230
+ |--------|-------------------|
231
+ | Coefficients | 3 × 10⁻⁵ |
232
+ | Model-based SE | 3 × 10⁻⁵ |
233
+ | Robust SE | 2 × 10⁻⁵ |
234
+ | Full 2×2 robust cov matrix | 1 × 10⁻⁴ |
235
+
236
+ Score residuals satisfy $\sum_i U_i = 0$ to $10^{-11}$ and reconstruct the
237
+ robust covariance matrix exactly. The proportionality test detects crossing
238
+ subdistribution hazards (Schoenfeld ρ ≈ −0.65, p < 10⁻⁴) and correctly finds
239
+ no violation on proportional data. Full validation scripts are in `examples/`.
240
+
241
+ ---
242
+
243
+ ## Related packages
244
+
245
+ `pycrr` focuses on inference and diagnostics. Other Python competing-risks
246
+ packages take different approaches:
247
+
248
+ | Package | Focus |
249
+ |---------|-------|
250
+ | `comprisk` | Fine-Gray + penalized FG + cause-specific Cox + competing-risks forest + sklearn API |
251
+ | `pycmprsk` | Systematic port of R `cmprsk`, including censoring strata |
252
+ | `CompRiskReg` | Translation of R `cmprsk` with `cov2`/`tf` interface |
253
+ | `lifelines` | Broad survival analysis; Aalen-Johansen but not Fine-Gray |
254
+ | `scikit-survival` | ML-focused survival; non-parametric CIF only |
255
+
256
+ `pycrr`'s distinct focus is the **diagnostic layer**: score residuals whose
257
+ estimating equations balance, exact sandwich covariance reconstruction, and a
258
+ proportional subdistribution hazards test with both negative- and
259
+ positive-control validation.
260
+
261
+ ---
262
+
263
+ ## Background
264
+
265
+ Fine & Gray (1999) model the subdistribution hazard:
266
+
267
+ $$\lambda_1(t \mid x) = \lambda_{10}(t) \exp(\beta^\top x)$$
268
+
269
+ Subjects who experienced a competing event remain in the risk set with
270
+ time-varying weight $G(t^-)/G(T_i^-) \le 1$, where $G$ is the Kaplan-Meier
271
+ censoring survival function. `pycrr` implements this with a Breslow tie
272
+ correction (matching `cmprsk::crr`) and L-BFGS-B optimization with analytically
273
+ derived gradients.
274
+
275
+ ---
276
+
277
+ ## Best practices
278
+
279
+ - **Standardize covariates** when scales differ. R's `crr` uses Newton-Raphson
280
+ (scale-invariant); `pycrr` uses L-BFGS-B which can be slow on poorly scaled
281
+ inputs.
282
+ - **Use `Surv(time, event)`** to bundle outcomes and avoid argument order errors.
283
+ - **Check proportionality** before interpreting coefficients as time-constant.

+ #### `.check_proportionality(tf=None, feature_names=None)`
135
+
136
+ Tests the proportional subdistribution hazards assumption. Returns a DataFrame
137
+ with columns `variable`, `rho`, `chisq`, `df`, `p`. Uses Schoenfeld-type
138
+ residuals correlated with event time (or `tf(time)` if provided).
139
+
140
+ #### `.predict_cif(X_new, times=None, cov2_new=None)`
141
+
142
+ Returns predicted CIF as `(n_new, len(times))` array.
143
+
144
+ #### `.summary(feature_names=None, robust=False)`
145
+
146
+ Prints a formatted regression table. Set `robust=True` to use robust SEs.

+ ### `AalenJohansen()`
151
+
152
+ Non-parametric CIF estimator with log-log confidence intervals.
153
+
154
+ ```python
155
+ aj = AalenJohansen().fit(Surv(time, event))
156
+ t_grid, cif = aj.predict(cause=1)
157
+ lo, hi = aj.confidence_intervals(cause=1)
158
+ aj.summary()
159
+ ```
160
+
161
+ ---
162
+
163
+ ### `gray_test(time, event, group, cause=1, rho=0)`
164
+
165
+ Gray's K-sample test for equality of CIFs across groups.
166
+
167
+ ```python
168
+ from pycrr.compare import gray_test
169
+
170
+ result = gray_test(Surv(time, event), group)
171
+ result.summary()
172
+ # Gray's test — chi-squared = 5.12, df = 1, p = 0.024
173
+ ```
174
+
175

176
+
177
+ ### Metrics
178
+
179
+ ```python
180
+ from pycrr.metrics import brier_score, integrated_brier_score, concordance
181
+
182
+ bs = brier_score(model, X_test, time_test, event_test, t=5.0)
183
+ ibs = integrated_brier_score(model, X_test, time_test, event_test,
184
+ times=np.linspace(0.5, 8, 50))
185
+ c = concordance(model, X_test, time_test, event_test)
186
+ ```
187
+
188

189
+
190
+ ## Validation
191
+
192
+ `pycrr` was validated against `cmprsk::crr` (R 4.5.0, v2.2-12) on:
193
+
194
+ **Synthetic dataset** (`n=500`, generated with `set.seed(42)` in R):
195
+
196
+ | Output | Max \|diff vs R\| |
197
+ |--------|-------------------|
198
+ | Coefficients | 2 × 10⁻⁶ |
199
+ | Model-based SE | 2 × 10⁻⁶ |
200
+ | Robust SE | 5 × 10⁻⁵ |
201
+ | Full 2×2 robust cov matrix | 1 × 10⁻⁴ |
202
+
203
+ **MGUS2** (`n=1,384`, from the R `survival` package, real clinical data):
204
+
205
+ | Output | Max \|diff vs R\| |
206
+ |--------|-------------------|
207
+ | Coefficients | 3 × 10⁻⁵ |
208
+ | Model-based SE | 3 × 10⁻⁵ |
209
+ | Robust SE | 2 × 10⁻⁵ |
210
+ | Full 2×2 robust cov matrix | 1 × 10⁻⁴ |
211
+
212
+ Score residuals satisfy $\sum_i U_i = 0$ to $10^{-11}$ and reconstruct the
213
+ robust covariance matrix exactly. The proportionality test detects crossing
214
+ subdistribution hazards (Schoenfeld ρ ≈ −0.65, p < 10⁻⁴) and correctly finds
215
+ no violation on proportional data. Full validation scripts are in `examples/`.

+
219
+ ## Related packages
220
+
221
+ `pycrr` focuses on inference and diagnostics. Other Python competing-risks
222
+ packages take different approaches:
223
+
224
+ | Package | Focus |
225
+ |---------|-------|
226
+ | `comprisk` | Fine-Gray + penalized FG + cause-specific Cox + competing-risks forest + sklearn API |
227
+ | `pycmprsk` | Systematic port of R `cmprsk`, including censoring strata |
228
+ | `CompRiskReg` | Translation of R `cmprsk` with `cov2`/`tf` interface |
229
+ | `lifelines` | Broad survival analysis; Aalen-Johansen but not Fine-Gray |
230
+ | `scikit-survival` | ML-focused survival; non-parametric CIF only |
231
+
232
+ `pycrr`'s distinct focus is the **diagnostic layer**: score residuals whose
233
+ estimating equations balance, exact sandwich covariance reconstruction, and a
234
+ proportional subdistribution hazards test with both negative- and
235
+ positive-control validation.
236
+

239
+ ## Background
240
+
241
+ Fine & Gray (1999) model the subdistribution hazard:
242
+
243
+ $$\lambda_1(t \mid x) = \lambda_{10}(t) \exp(\beta^\top x)$$
244
+
245
+ Subjects who experienced a competing event remain in the risk set with
246
+ time-varying weight $G(t^-)/G(T_i^-) \le 1$, where $G$ is the Kaplan-Meier
247
+ censoring survival function. `pycrr` implements this with a Breslow tie
248
+ correction (matching `cmprsk::crr`) and L-BFGS-B optimization with analytically
249
+ derived gradients.
250
+
251
+ ---
252
+
253
+ ## Best practices
254
+
255
+ - **Standardize covariates** when scales differ. R's `crr` uses Newton-Raphson
256
+ (scale-invariant); `pycrr` uses L-BFGS-B which can be slow on poorly scaled
257
+ inputs.
258
+ - **Use `Surv(time, event)`** to bundle outcomes and avoid argument order errors.
259
+ - **Check proportionality** before interpreting coefficients as time-constant.
