Heads up, we've moved! If you'd like to continue keeping up with the latest technical content from Square please visit us at our new home https://developer.squareup.com/blogPySurvival is an open source python package for Survival Analysis modeling. Today, we're excited to introduce PySurvival, a python package for Survival Analysis modeling. This article is the first installment in a four part series, which will include tutorials designed to demonstrate how to easily make the most of the package. You can also find these tutorials on the official website: Churn modeling Predictive maintenance Credit risk PySurvival LogoWhat is PySurvival ? PySurvival is an open source python package for Survival Analysis modeling -- the modeling concept used to analyze or predict when an event is likely to happen. It is built on top the most commonly used machine learning packages: NumPy, SciPy, and PyTorch. PySurvival provides a very easy way to navigate between theoretical knowledge on Survival Analysis and detailed tutorials on how to conduct a full analysis, as well as build and use a model. The package contains: 10+ models ranging from the Cox Proportional Hazard model and the Neural Multi-Task Logistic Regression, to Random Survival Forest Summaries of the theory behind each model as well as API descriptions and examples Detailed tutorials on how to perform exploratory data analysis, survival modeling, cross-validation and prediction, for churn modeling and credit risk, for example Performance metrics to assess the models' abilities like c-index or brier score Simple ways to load and save models Installation If you have already installed a working version of gcc, the easiest way to install Pysurvival is using pip. pip install pysurvival The complete installation steps can be found here.
