title: 'uddbart: Unified Dynamic Deep ''BART'' for Interval-Censored Survival'
version: 0.2.0
abstract: Implements U-DDBART-IC, a unified Bayesian workflow for dynamic risk prediction
  from irregular longitudinal biomarkers when event times are interval-censored between
  clinical visits. The package turns long-format biomarker histories and patient-level
  interval endpoints L, R, C and delta into a discrete-time follow-up grid, summarises
  each landmark history with nine interpretable trajectory features (current, baseline
  and previous biomarker values, last visit gap, local slope, cumulative decline,
  best value, elapsed time and visit count), fits discrete-time interval hazards using
  optional logit-link Bayesian additive regression trees, a generalized linear model
  fallback, or a lightweight variational approximation, accumulates survival from
  the discrete-time product, and evaluates the interval-censored likelihood. Fitted
  models return landmark risk predictions over user-specified horizons with posterior
  or bootstrap uncertainty by evaluating survival ratios across fitted hazard draws.
  Utilities are provided for simulation, staged model fitting, plotting and summarising
  dynamic risk curves, IPCW Brier scores, cumulative/dynamic time-dependent area under
  the curve, calibration tables, and an anonymised chronic myeloid leukaemia molecular-monitoring
  example data set.
