discretizeAge {TCPMOR}R Documentation

Discretize the age variable according to the two cut-off points

Description

Discretize the age variable according to the two cut-off points

Usage

discretizeAge(data, cutoffs)

Arguments

data

Data frame with column: age

cutoffs

The cut-off points of the age range

Value

A modified data frame with a new column: age_p

Examples

# Generate simulated data dataC
dataC <- createData(200)

# Fit the semi-parametric model
spm.fit <- fitSemiParamModel(dataC)

# Find two cut-off points
dataC <- findCutoffs(spm.fit, dataC)

# Calculate the two cut-off points after limiting sensitivity se and specificity sp
result <- calculateCutoffs(dataC)
cutoffs <- result$cutoffs
dataC2 <- result$filteredData

# Discretize age variable based on the two cutoffs
dataC2 <- discretizeAge(dataC2, cutoffs)
