rcensIfix {rcens}

Generate interval censoring sample (Fix)

Description

Generator of interval censored samples where the length of interval is fixed, given a generator of samples of the distribution X (rdistrX) with parameters appended by the list param_X. In which, you can control the desired censorship percentage.

Usage

rcensIfix(
  rdistrX,
  param_X,
  interval_length,
  n = 10000,
  theta = 1,
  verbose = FALSE
)

Arguments

rdistrX

sample generator of distribution X.
First argument number of samples, next arguments in param_X.

param_X

list with parameters of rdistrX function.

interval_length

length of interval

n

number of sample to create.

theta

Desired censoring percentage

verbose

if TRUE print a censoring percentage of new created database.

Value

A list with sample data information:

sample_censored	vector of censored sample
sample_uncensored	vector of uncensored sample (original)
censored_indicator	vector of 1 and 0 indicating whether the i-th sample is censored
	1:= no censored, 0:= censored
n_censored	number of censored samples

Examples

#Example Exponential - Uniform

Data_Ifix = rcensIfix(rdistrX = rexp, interval_length = 2,
                   param_X = list("rate" = .5),
                   n = 1e02, theta = .9)
