simpopmlx: Population parameters simulation

Description

Draw population parameters using the covariance matrix of the estimates

Usage

simpopmlx(n = 1, project = NULL, fim = "needed", parameter = NULL,
  corr = NULL, kw.max = 100)

Arguments

n

the number of vectors of population parameters (default = 1),

project

a Monolix project, assuming that the Fisher information Matrix was estimated by Monolix.

fim

the Fisher Information Matrix estimated by Monolix. fim="sa", "lin" (default="sa")

parameter

a data frame with a column pop.param (no default), a column sd (no default), and possibly a column trans (default ='N'). Only when project is not used.

corr

correlation matrix of the population parameters (default = identity). Only when project is not used.

kw.max

maximum number of trials for generating a positive definite covariance matrix (default = 100)
