CalcCoxCalibRSIntsP {ICcalib}

Calculating the probabilities of positive binary exposure status at a given time point using proportional hazards grouped risk-set calibration models

Description

For a given time point, calculate the probability of positive exposure value for multiple observations (participants). The function uses the results of proportional hazards grouped risk-set calibration model fit, and given covariates and collected data on the history of the binary exposure for each participant.

Usage

CalcCoxCalibRSIntsP(w, w.res, point, fit.cox.rs.ints, hz.times, Q, pts.for.ints)

Arguments

w

A matrix of time points when measurements on the binary covariate were obtained.

w.res

A matrix of measurement results of the binary covariate. Each measurement corresponds to the time points in w

point

The time point at which the probabilities are estimated

fit.cox.rs.ints

The result of FitCalibCoxRSInts on the interval-censored data

hz.times

Times used for calculating the baseline hazard function from PH calibration model

Q

Matrix of covariates for the PH calibration model

pts.for.ints

Points defining the intervals for grouping risk-sets (first one has to be zero). Should be sorted from zero up

Value

A vector of estimated probabilities of positive exposure status at time point.
