define_resample: Define Parameters Distribution for Probabilistc Analysis

Description

Define the properties of parameter distributions and their correlation structure for probabilistic incertitude analysis of Markov models.

Usage

define_resample(..., correlation)

Arguments

...

Formulas defining parameter distributions.

correlation

A correlation matrix for parameters or the output of define_correlation.

Value

• An object of class resamp_definition. Contains list_qdist, a list of quantile functions and correlation a correlation matrix.

Details

If no correlation matrix is specified parameters are assumed to be independant.

The correlation patrix need only be specified for correlated parameters.

Examples

mc <- define_correlation(
  age_init, cost_init, .4
)

define_resample(
    age_init ~ normal(60, 10),
    cost_init ~ normal(1000, 100),
    correlation = mc
)

# example with multinomial parameters

define_resample(
  rate1 + rate2 + rate3 ~ multinom(10, 50, 40),
  a + b ~ multinom(15, 30)
)
