convert

This function converts a jointLPM object to an object of type <code>multlcmm</code> or
<code>Jointlcmm</code> from lcmm package.
The conversion to <code>multlcmm</code> unable the use of the dedicated postfit and
predictions functions implemented in the lcmm package (plot, predictL, predictY,
predictlink, predictYcond, fitY, VarExpl).
The conversion to <code>Jointlcmm</code> permits the use of functions cuminc and
plot (with options "baselinerisk" or "survival").

Estimation of extended joint models with shared random effects. Longitudinal data are handled in latent process models for continuous (Gaussian or curvilinear) and ordinal outcomes while proportional hazard models are used for the survival part. We propose a frequentist approach using maximum likelihood estimation. See Saulnier et al, 2022 <doi:10.1016/j.ymeth.2022.03.003>.
