dlt_rate {ewoc}

Evaluation of the DLT rate

Description

Calculate the DLT rate for each trial, the average DLT rate, the percent of trials which have DLT rate > target_rate + margin, the percent of trials which have DLT rate < target_rate - margin and the percent of trials which have target_rate - margin < DLT rate < target_rate + margin.

Usage

dlt_rate(
  dlt_matrix,
  trial = FALSE,
  target_rate = NULL,
  margin = NULL,
  digits = 2
)

Arguments

dlt_matrix

a matrix of the number of DLT for each step of the trial (column) and for each trial (row).

trial

a logical value indicating if the DLT rate for each trial should be returned.

target_rate

a numerical value of the target rate of DLT.

margin

a numerical value of the acceptable distance from the target_rate.

digits

a numerical value indicating the number of digits.

Value

trial a numerical vector of the DLT rate for each trial.

average a numerical value of the average of DLT rate considering a batch of trials.

upper the percent of trials which the DLT rate > target_rate + margin if margin != NULL and target_rate != NULL.

lower the percent of trials which the DLT rate < target_rate - margin if margin != NULL and target_rate != NULL.

interval the percent of trials which the target_rate - margin < DLT rate < target_rate + margin if margin != NULL and target_rate != NULL.
