calculate_characteristic_limits: Characteristic limits function-----------------------------------------------

Description

Characteristic limits function-----------------------------------------------

Usage

calculate_characteristic_limits(
  mu0 = NULL,
  n1 = NULL,
  y0 = NULL,
  n0 = NULL,
  alpha = 0.05,
  beta = 0.1,
  ymax = 100,
  type = "const"
)

Value

List of characteristic limits (decision_threshold, detection_limit).

Arguments

mu0

Background rate

n1

Number of cells that will be analysed.

y0

Background number of dicentrics.

n0

Background number of cells analysed.

alpha

Type I error rate, 0.05 by default.

beta

Type II error rate, 0.1 by default.

ymax

Max dicentrics to evaluate.

type

Type.

Examples

control_data <- c(aberr = 4,
                  cells = 1000)

calculate_characteristic_limits(
      y0 = control_data["aberr"],
      n0 = control_data["cells"],
      n1 = 20,
      alpha = 0.05,
      beta = 0.1,
      ymax = 100,
      type = "var"
)
