cdtamodel-class

A cdtamodel class in the CopulaDTA package.

Modelling of sensitivity and specificity on their natural scale
using copula based bivariate beta-binomial distribution to yield marginal
mean sensitivity and specificity. The intrinsic negative correlation between
sensitivity and specificity is modelled using a copula function. A forest plot
can be obtained for categorical covariates or for the model with intercept only.
