getOmegas: Generate ETA variance and covariance table

Description

This function constructs a combined table containing:

  • ETA variances (e.g., eta.cl, eta.vc), which represent inter-individual variability (IIV) in pharmacokinetic parameters;

  • Derived covariances (e.g., cov.eta_cl_vc) computed from ETA variances and assumed pairwise correlations.

Usage

getOmegas()

Arguments

Value

A data.frame with columns: Parameters, Methods, and Values.

Details

ETA variances are initialized to 0.1 by default. Correlations within defined omega blocks (block 1: eta.vmax, eta.km; block 2: eta.cl, eta.vc, eta.vp, eta.vp2, eta.q, eta.q2) are assumed to be 0.1 and used to compute covariances as: $$Cov(i, j) = sqrt(Var_i) * sqrt(Var_j) * Corr(i, j)$$

The resulting output format aligns with Recommended_initial_estimates.
