Automates creating data for a joint competing risks analysis

Joint_Multiple_Events generates input for a regression with multiple non-independent events and models

Usage

Joint_Multiple_Events(
  df,
  events,
  name_list,
  term_n_list = list(),
  tform_list = list(),
  keep_constant_list = list(),
  a_n_list = list()
)

Arguments

df

a data.table containing the columns of interest

events

vector of event column names

name_list

list of vectors for columns for event specific or shared model elements, required

term_n_list

list of vectors for term numbers for event specific or shared model elements, defaults to term 0

tform_list

list of vectors for subterm types for event specific or shared model elements, defaults to loglinear

keep_constant_list

list of vectors for constant elements for event specific or shared model elements, defaults to free (0)

a_n_list

list of vectors for parameter values for event specific or shared model elements, defaults to term 0

Value

returns the updated dataframe and model inputs
