ic_tbl: Helper function to create a model comparison table

Description

This is a helper function for creating a model comparison <data.frame> primarily for use in the superspreading vignettes. It is designed specifically for handling fitdistrplus::fitdist() output and not a generalised function. See bbmle::ICtab() for a more general use function to create information criteria tables.

Usage

ic_tbl(..., sort_by = c("AIC", "BIC", "none"))

Value

A <data.frame>.

Arguments

...

dots One or more model fit results from fitdistrplus::fitdist().

sort_by

A character string specifying which information criterion to order the table by, either "AIC" (default), "BIC", or "none" (i.e. no ordering).

Examples

if (requireNamespace("fitdistrplus", quietly = TRUE)) {
  cases <- rnbinom(n = 100, mu = 5, size = 0.7)
  pois_fit <- fitdistrplus::fitdist(data = cases, distr = "pois")
  geom_fit <- fitdistrplus::fitdist(data = cases, distr = "geom")
  nbinom_fit <- fitdistrplus::fitdist(data = cases, distr = "nbinom")
  ic_tbl(pois_fit, geom_fit, nbinom_fit)
}
