  <dc:title>Fast Kaplan-Meier, Log-Rank, and Hazard Ratio Estimation for
Survival Analysis</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package FastSurvival version 0.1.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Provides fast alternatives to standard survival analysis functions
    in the 'survival' package. The package implements a single-time-point
    Kaplan-Meier estimator (survfit_fast()), a log-rank test (survdiff_fast()),
    a closed-form hazard ratio estimator based on the Pike-Halley Estimator
    method (coxph_fast()), and a clinical trial data simulator (simdata_fast()).
    All functions are designed for repeated evaluation inside large simulation
    loops, such as adaptive sample-size re-estimation, probability-of-success
    calculations, and regional consistency evaluation in multi-regional trials.
    Core computations are implemented in 'C++' via 'Rcpp' for maximum performance.
    Methodological background is described in Collett (2014, ISBN:9780429196294).</dc:description>
