rrmultinom: rrmultinom

Description

This function is used to fit the reduced rank multinomial logistic regression for markov chain

Usage

rrmultinom(I, z1 = NULL, z2 = NULL, T, R, eps = 1e-05, ref = NULL)

Arguments

I

a U by U incidence matrix with elements; U is number of states; I(i,j)=1 if state j can be accessed from state i in one step and 0 otherwise

z1

a n by p matrix with covariates involved in the dimension reduction(DR), n is the number of subjects, p is the number of covariates involved in DR

z2

a n by q matrix with study covariates (not in dimension reduction), q is the number of study covariates

T

a M by 3 state matrix,

• the first column is a subject number between 1,..,n;

• the second column is time;

• the third column is the state occupied by subject in column 1 at time indicated in column 2

R

the rank

eps

the tolerance for convergence; the default is 10^-5

ref

a vector of reference categories; the default is NULL and if NULL is used, the function will use the first category as the reference category for each row

Value

a list of outputs:

• Alpha: the final A matrix

• Gamma: the final G matrix

• Beta: the coefficient matrix for variables involved in reduced rank

• Dcoe: the coefficient matrix for the fixed variables

• Dsderr: the standard error matrix for the fixed variables

• Dpval: the p-value matrix for the fixed variables

• coemat: the overall coefficient matrix

• niter: the iteration number to get converged

• df: the degrees of freedom

• loglik: the final loglikelihood

• converge: three possible values with 0 means fail to converge, 1 means converges, and 2 means the maximum iteration is achieved
