check.args.pisurv {depCensoring} | R Documentation |
Check argument consistency.
Description
This function checks whether the arguments supplied to the
main estimation function pi.surv
are valid. When arguments are
invalid, the an exception is thrown.
Usage
check.args.pisurv(
data,
idx.param.of.interest,
idxs.c,
t,
par.space,
search.method,
add.options
)
Arguments
data |
Data frame containing the data on which to fit the model. The columns should be named as follows: 'Y' = observed timed, 'Delta' = censoring indicators, 'X0' = intercept column, 'X1' - 'Xp' = covariates. |
idx.param.of.interest |
Index of element in the covariate vector for
which the identified interval should be estimated. It can also be specified
as |
idxs.c |
Vector of indices of the continuous covariates. Suppose the
given data contains 5 covariates, of which 'X2' and 'X5' are continuous, this
argument should be specified as |
t |
Time point for which to estimate the identified set of
|
par.space |
Matrix containing bounds on the space of the parameters. The first column corresponds to lower bounds, the second to upper bounds. The i'th row corresponds to the bounds on the i'th element in the parameter vector. |
search.method |
The search method to be used to find the identified
interval. Default is |
add.options |
List of additional options to be specified to the method.
Notably, it can be used to select the link function |
