Package: MDCcure Type: Package Title: High-Performance Functions for Martingale Difference Correlation and Hypothesis Testing in Mixture Cure Models Version: 0.1.0 Authors@R: c( person("Blanca", "Monroy-Castillo", , "blancamonroy.96@gmail.com", role = c("aut", "cre")), person("Amalia Jácome", role = "aut"), person("Ricardo Cao", role = "aut"), person("Ingrid Van Keilegom", role = "aut"), person("Ursula Müller", role = "aut") ) Description: Provides efficient tools for computing martingale difference correlation, martingale difference divergence, and their partial extensions to assess conditional mean dependence. Separately, the package introduces a novel hypothesis test for detecting covariate effects on the cure rate in mixture cure models, using MDC-based statistics. These methods enable both general dependence analysis and targeted inference in survival models with a cure fraction.
