find_ends {REffectivePred}

Detect end of waves

Description

Find the approximate end times of waves given times of peaks. This is based on local minima of R_t.

Usage

find_ends(rt_values, peaks_x, search_range)

Arguments

rt_values

A vector containing rt values for each time point.

peaks_x

Time points of peaks based on daily cases (one for each wave).

search_range

The range of data points to go through for filtering invalid ends (a vector).

Details

Note: This is provided for convenience only, and is not meant to replace an analyst's determination of wave bounds.

Value

A list containing the detected end times of waves, as scalars.
