Fit the SCCS model
fitSccsModel(sccsIntervalData, fitSccsModelArgs)An object of type SccsModel. Generic functions print, coef, and
confint are available.
An object of type SccsIntervalData as created using the createSccsIntervalData function.
An object of type FitSccsModelArgs as created by the createFitSccsModelArgs() function.
Fits the SCCS model as a conditional Poisson regression. When allowed, coefficients for some or all covariates can be regularized.
Likelihood profiling is only done for variables for which profileLikelihood is set to TRUE when
calling createEraCovariateSettings(). Either specify the profileGrid for a completely user-
defined grid, or profileBounds for an adaptive grid. Both should be defined on the log IRR scale.
When both profileGrid and profileGrid are NULL likelihood profiling is disabled.
