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
LandmarkAnalysis, 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
LandmarkAnalysis object, where each risk set is a list of
indices corresponding to the subjects at risk at the respective landmark
time.
