accrual_linear_model {accrualPlot}

accrual_linear_model

Description

Creates a weighted linear regression model using an accrual data frame produced by accrual_create_df.

Usage

accrual_linear_model(
  accrual_df,
  fill_up = TRUE,
  wfun = function(x) seq(1/nrow(x), 1, by = 1/nrow(x))
)

Arguments

accrual_df

object of class 'accrual_df' or 'accrual_list' produced by accrual_create_df.

fill_up

whether to fill up days where no recruitment was observed,

wfun

function to calculate the weights with accrual data frame as argument, default is wfun<-function(x) seq(1 / nrow(x), 1, by = 1/nrow(x)).

Value

Returns an object of class 'lm' with a weighted linear regression of cumulative accrual on dates.

Examples

data(accrualdemo)
accrual_df<-accrual_create_df(accrualdemo$date)
accrual_linear_model(accrual_df)

#unweighted
accrual_linear_model(accrual_df, wfun=function(x) rep(1,nrow(x)))

#different start and current date
accrual_df<-accrual_create_df(accrualdemo$date,start_date=as.Date("2020-07-08"),
    current_date=as.Date("2020-07-15"))
accrual_linear_model(accrual_df)

#accrual_df with by option
accrual_df<-accrual_create_df(accrualdemo$date,by=accrualdemo$site)
accrual_linear_model(accrual_df)
