State probability object
Description
An object of class stateprobs
returned by sim_stateprobs()
or from
$sim_stateprobs()
methods in model classes.
Components
A stateprobs
object inherits from data.table
and contains
the following columns:
- sample
A random sample from the PSA.
- strategy_id
The treatment strategy ID.
- patient_id
The patient ID.
- grp_id
The subgroup ID.
- state_id
The health state ID.
- t
The time at which a state probability is computed.
- prob
The probability of being in a given health state.
When simulating individual-level models, the patient_id
column is
not included as state probabilities are computed by averaging across patients.
In cohort models, the object also contains size
and absorbing
attributes.
The size
attribute is a numeric vector with the elements n_samples
,
n_strategies
, n_patients
, n_states
, and
n_times
denoting the number of samples, treatment strategies, patients,
health states, and times. The absorbing
attribute is a numeric vector
containing the absorbing health states (see the absorbing
field of the
CohortDtstmTrans
class for more details).
