simdesign_distinct {nlrx} | R Documentation |
Add a distinct simdesign to a nl object
Description
Add a distinct simdesign to a nl object
Usage
simdesign_distinct(nl, nseeds)
Arguments
nl |
nl object with a defined experiment |
nseeds |
number of seeds for this simulation design |
Details
This function creates a simdesign S4 class which can be added to a nl object. The distinct simdesign allows to create a parameter matrix with distinct parameterisations.
Variables in the experiment variable list need to provide a vector of distinct values (e.g. list(values=c(1,2,3,4)). All vectors of values must have the same length across variables.
The distinct simdesign then creates one simulation run for all first elements of these values vectors, one run for all second items, and so on. With this function, multiple distinct simulations can be run at once. Finally, the function reports a simdesign object.
Value
simdesign S4 class object
Examples
# To attach a simdesign, a nl object needs to be created first (see ?nl).
# For this example, we load a nl object from test data.
nl <- nl_distinct
nl@simdesign <- simdesign_distinct(nl = nl, nseeds = 3)
