DoseFinding (version 0.1-3)

quadratic: Quadratic model

Description

The model function for the quadratic model is defined as $$f(d,\theta)=E_0+\beta_1d+\beta_2d^2$$

Usage

quadratic(dose, e0, b1, b2)

Arguments

dose
Dose variable
e0
Placebo effect
b1
beta1 parameter
b2
beta2 parameter (controls, whether model is convex or concave)

Value

  • Response value

Details

This model is intended to capture a possible non-monotonic dose-response relationship.
