A python implementation of the parametric g-formula
Project description
pygformula: a python implementation of the parametric g-formula
Authors: Jing Li, Sophia Rein, Sean McGrath, Roger Logan, Ryan O’Dea, Miguel Hernán
Overview
The pygformula package implements the non-iterative conditional expectation (NICE) estimator of the g-formula algorithm (Robins, 1986). The g-formula can estimate an outcome’s counterfactual mean or risk under hypothetical treatment strategies (interventions) when there is sufficient information on time-varying treatments and confounders.
Features
- Treatments: discrete or continuous time-varying treatments.
- Outcomes: failure time outcomes or continuous/binary end of follow-up outcomes.
- Interventions: interventions on a single treatment or joint interventions on multiple treatments.
- Random measurement/visit process.
- Incorporation of a priori knowledge of the data structure.
- Censoring events.
- Competing events.
Requirements
The package requires python 3.8+ and these necessary dependencies:
- cmprsk
- joblib
- lifelines
- matplotlib
- numpy
- pandas
- prettytable
- pytruncreg
- scipy
- seaborn
- statsmodels
- tqdm
Documentation
The online documentation is available at pygformula documentation.
