cluster.cormat: Gaussian Copula Regression with Longitudinal/Clustered Data Correlation Matrix

Description

Sets longitudinal/clustered data correlation in Gaussian copula regression models.

Usage

cluster.cormat(id, type = c("ar1", "ma1", "exch", "unstr"))

Arguments

id
subject id.
type
a character string specifying the correlation structure. At the moment, the following are implemented: ll{ ar1 autoregressive of order 1. ma1 moving average of order 1. exch exchangeable.

Value

  • An object of class cormat.gcmr representing a correlation matrix for longitudinal or clustered data.

Details
