instantaneous hazard

[weihevt]

Hello, is there a function which returns the instantaneous hazard rate instead of the cumulative hazard rate?

Thanks.

Sure, you can use something like: https://lifelines.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Survival%20analysis%20with%20lifelines.html#smoothing-the-hazard-function

For parametric models, there is the hazard_at_times function: https://lifelines.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Survival%20analysis%20with%20lifelines.html#other-parametric-models-exponential-log-logistic-log-normal-and-splines

Got it. Thanks so much. Actually I am not looking for the cumulative hazard rate but the simple hazard for the exponential model. And I found out some people asked this before. I can get the hazard (decay rate) for the exponential model here.
