First of all I was thinking about the reasoning behind your choice of XGBoost instead of LightGBM? I am just curious if XGB has any inherent advantages for survival analysis compared to LGB.
Then on to my main question related to early stopping. As far as I can see, when using early stopping, you are not using the best iteration for predictions, but rather the last iteration. Or, in code; instead of:
Hi Christian, thanks for your report! It's indeed a bug, we'll look into it and provide a fix soon.
About the reasoning behind XGBoost, even though LightGBM has the advantage of using categorical features directly we went for XGBoost because it has better support for survival problems via survival:cox and survival:aftobjetive functions.
Hi and thanks for a really interesting library!
