I am using survreg function and weibull distribution to predict the survival time for the last row of my data, But I got the error message.
My data is:
Train <- data.frame(Sum=c(2,2,2,2,2),
Days=c(21,21,21,21,21),
Status=c(1,1,1,1,1))
Test <- data.frame(Sum=2,
Days=21,
Status=1)
My code is:
FitWeibull <- survreg(Surv(Days,Status)~Sum,data=Train,dist='weibull')
PredictWeibull <- predict(FitWeibull,newdata=Test)
The error message is:
Error in coxph.wtest(t(x) %*% (wt * x), c((wt * eta + weights * deriv$dg) %*% :
NA/NaN/Inf in foreign function call (arg 3)
This data is just a small part of my whole data. All the other data runs well except for this one. It looks like this is because all the Days and Sum are the same. I change the Train to:
Train <- data.frame(Sum=c(2,2,2,2,2),
Days=c(21,21,21,21,20),
Status=c(1,1,1,1,1))
Then it is fine. So, weibull might cannot deal with all the same values. But I do not understand why this error happens and how to fix it?
