Colossus (version 1.2)

Convert_Model_Eq: Converts a string equation to regression model inputs

Description

Convert_Model_Eq Converts a string expression of a risk model into the vectors used by different Colossus regression functions

Usage

Convert_Model_Eq(Model_Eq, df)

Value

returns a list of regression inputs

Arguments

Model_Eq

String representation of a survival model. Left hand side details the model (cox, poisson, cox_strata, poisson_strata), time columns, event, and strata when used. The right hand side details the subterm effects. The 'Unified Equation Representation' vignette provides more details.

df

a data.table containing the columns of interest
