fb4package (version 2.0.0)

validate_fb4_inputs: Validate inputs for FB4 simulation

Description

Validates all inputs for FB4 simulation, including the Bioenergetic object and strategy-specific parameters.

Usage

validate_fb4_inputs(
  bio_obj,
  strategy,
  fit_to = NULL,
  fit_value = NULL,
  first_day = 1,
  last_day = NULL,
  observed_weights = NULL,
  covariates = NULL
)

Value

Invisibly returns TRUE if all inputs are valid. Throws an error with a descriptive message at the first validation failure: invalid day range, unrecognised strategy, missing fit_to/fit_value

for traditional strategies, or missing observed_weights for statistical strategies.

Arguments

bio_obj

Bioenergetic object

strategy

Strategy to use: "binary_search", "optim", "bootstrap", "mle", "hierarchical"

fit_to

Fitting target (for traditional strategies)

fit_value

Fitting value (for traditional strategies)

first_day

First simulation day

last_day

Last simulation day

observed_weights

Vector of observed weights (for statistical strategies)

covariates

Covariates (for hierarchical strategy)

Examples

# \donttest{
# Requires a fully-configured Bioenergetic object; see ?Bioenergetic
# validate_fb4_inputs(bio, strategy = "direct",
#                     fit_to = "Weight", fit_value = 200,
#                     first_day = 1, last_day = 365)
# }
