Cross Validated is a question and answer site for statisticians, data analysts, data miners and data visualization experts. It's 100% free, no registration required.

Both functions are great for comparing, for example, survival models. The first especially for computing Harrell's C-index, the second for NRI and IDI.

However, it looks like rcorr.cens takes survival probabilities and improveProb takes event probabilites, that is, 1 - survival probabilities, as arguments. Could somebody confirm this? It just feels weird, and I haven't been able to find information on it in the documentation.
