Details

A risk set describes all subjects still at risk (i.e., not experienced the event of interest or censored) at a given time. In Landmarking, risk sets define which subjects should be included in the longitudinal and survival sub-models for each landmark time.

The risk sets are stored in the risk_sets slot of the Landmarking object, where each risk set is a list of indices corresponding to the subjects at risk at the respective landmark time.
