The estimation and testing functions cover a single-time-point Kaplan-Meier estimator (survfit_fast()), log-rank tests including weighted and stratified variants (survdiff_fast()), a closed-form hazard ratio estimator based on the Pike-Halley Estimator method (coxph_fast()), restricted mean survival time (rmst_fast()), milestone survival comparison (milestone_fast()), the max-combo test (maxcombo_fast()), the robust modestly-weighted log-rank test (rmw_fast()), the average hazard with survival weight (ahsw_fast()), and the Kalbfleisch-Prentice average hazard ratio (ahr_fast()). The simulation layer generates individual patient data (simdata_fast()), performs interim or sequential analyses (analysis_fast()), and aggregates operating characteristics (simsummary_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). authors: - family-names: Homma given-names: Gosuke email: my.name.is.gosuke@gmail.com repository: https://gosukehommaex.r-universe.dev repository-code: https://github.com/gosukehommaEX/FastSurvival commit: 709820712012220fa6bbf10797b9fdf700807dde url: https://gosukehommaEX.github.io/FastSurvival/ date-released: '2026-06-06' contact: - family-names: Homma given-names: Gosuke email: my.name.is.gosuke@gmail.com
