    Exact and Asymptotic Weighted Logrank Tests for Interval Censored Data: The interval R Package

    Get PDF
    For right-censored data perhaps the most commonly used tests are weighted logrank tests, such as the logrank and Wilcoxon-type tests. In this paper we review several generalizations of those weighted logrank tests to interval-censored data and present an R package, interval, to implement many of them. The interval package depends on the perm package, also presented here, which performs exact and asymptotic linear permutation tests. The perm package performs many of the tests included in the already available coin package, and provides an independent validation of coin. We review analysis methods for interval-censored data, and we describe and show how to use the interval and perm packages.

    Contested Cosmopolitanism: William and Elizabeth A. Sharp’s Glasgow Herald Reviews of the Paris Salons 1884-1900

    Discusses William Sharp\u27s attempt as a fin-de-siecle art critic to accommodate local particularism and national identity within his outsider cosmopolitanism, through his contributions to The Evergreen and the regular reviews he and his wife Elizabeth A. Sharp wrote of the Paris Salons for the Glasgow Herald, unsigned but identifiable through their correspondence, and argues that these reviews show how the Sharps resisted the growing tendency to see the particular and the cosmopolitan as irreconcilable opposites.
