add_breakpoints {EpiNow2} | R Documentation |
Add breakpoints to certain dates in a data set.
Description
Add breakpoints to certain dates in a data set.
Usage
add_breakpoints(data, dates = as.Date(character(0)))
Arguments
data |
A <data.frame> of disease reports (confirm) by date (date).
confirm must be numeric and date must be in date format. Optionally
this can also have a logical accumulate column which indicates whether
data should be added to the next data point. This is useful when modelling
e.g. weekly incidence data. See also the fill_missing() function which
helps add the accumulate column with the desired properties when dealing
with non-daily data. If any accumulation is done this happens after
truncation as specified by the truncation argument.
|
dates |
A vector of dates to use as breakpoints.
|
Value
A data.table with breakpoint
set to 1 on each of the specified
dates.
Examples
reported_cases <- add_breakpoints(example_confirmed, as.Date("2020-03-26"))
