Given observed transition intervals, determine the "worst" (least informative) possible direct transition intervals that could have occurred to form this sample.
direct_from_observed_intervals(observed_intervals, tmat, gd)
A data.frame
with the following named columns
entry_time
:Time of entry into "from" state;
time_from
:Last time subject(id) was seen in state "from";
time_to
:First time subject(id) was seen in state "to";
from
:State from which a transition was observed;
to
:State to which the transition was observed;
id
:Subject identifier;
For right-censored observations, entry_time denotes the first time
seen in the censored state, time_from the last time seen in the censored state,
time_to is Inf
, from the censored state and to is NA
.
Output from get_trans_intervals
.
A transition matrix as created by transMat
A data.frame
with the following named columns
id
:Subject idenitifier;
state
:State at which the subject is observed at time
;
time
:Time at which the subject is observed;
The true transition time between states is then interval censored between the times.
