Details

Based on binomial regresion IPCW response estimating equation: $$ X ( \Delta (T \leq t)/G_c(T_i-) - expit( X^T beta)) = 0 $$ for IPCW adjusted responses.

Based on binomial regresion IPCW response estimating equation: $$ h(X) X ( \Delta (T \leq t)/G_c(T_i-) - expit( X^T beta)) = 0 $$ for IPCW adjusted responses where $h$ is given as an argument together with iid of censoring with h. By using appropriately the h argument we can also do the efficient IPCW estimator estimator this works the prepsurv and prepcif for survival or competing risks data. In this case also the censoring martingale should be given for variance calculation and this also comes out of the prepsurv or prepcif functions. (Experimental version at this stage).

Variance is based on $$ \sum w_i^2 $$ also with IPCW adjustment, and naive.var is variance under known censoring model.

Censoring model may depend on strata.
