name of the variable indicating the time of the measurement of a time-varying covariate in a proportional hazards survival model (also in a joint model). The variable specified in "timevar" will automatically be added to "no_model".
named vector specifying the type of the association used for a time-varying covariate in the linear predictor of the survival model when using a "JM" model. Implemented options are "underl.value" (linear predictor; default for covariates modelled using a Gaussian, Gamma, beta or log-normal distribution) covariates) and "obs.value" (the observed/imputed value; default for covariates modelled using other distributions).
It is possible to specify multi-level models as it is done in the package
nlme,
using fixed and random, or as it is done in the package
lme4,
using formula and specifying the random effects in brackets:
formula = y ~ x1 + x2 + x3 + (1 | id)
is equivalent to
fixed = y ~ x1 + x2 + x3, random = ~ 1|id
For multiple levels of grouping the specification using formula
should be used. There is no distinction between nested and crossed random
effects, i.e., ... + (1 | id) + (1 | center) is treated the same as
... + (1 | center/id).
The distinction between nested and crossed random effects should come from
the levels of the grouping variables, i.e., if id is nested in
center, then there cannot be observations with the same id
but different values for center.
To fit multiple main models at the same time, a list of formula
objects can be passed to the argument formula.
Outcomes of one model may be contained as covariates in another model and
it is possible to combine models for variables on different levels,
for example:
formula = list(y ~ x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 + time + (time | id),
x2 ~ x3 + x4 + x5)
This principle is also used for the specification of a joint model for longitudinal and survival data.
Note that it is not possible to specify multiple models for the same outcome variable.
(Note: This feature is new and has not been fully tested yet.)
By default, a block-diagonal structure is assumed for the variance-covariance
matrices of the random effects in models with random effects. This means that
per outcome and level random effects are assumed to be correlated, but
random effects of different outcomes are modelled as independent.
The argument rd_vcov allows the user specify different assumptions about
these variance-covariance matrices. Implemented structures are full,
blockdiag and indep (all off-diagonal elements are zero).
If rd_vcov is set to one of these options, the structure is assumed for
all random effects variance-covariance matrices.
Alternatively, it is possible to specify a named list of vectors, where
the names are the structures and the vectors contain the names of the
response variables which are included in this structure.
For example, for a multivariate mixed model with five outcomes
y1, ..., y5, the specification could be:
rd_vcov = list(blockdiag = c("y1", "y2"),
full = c("y3", "y4"),
indep = "y5")
This would entail that the random effects for y3 and y4 are assumed to
be correlated (within and across outcomes),
random effects for y1 and y2 are assumed to be correlated within each
outcome, and the random effects for y5 are assumed to be independent.
It is possible to have multiple sets of response variables for which separate full variance-covariance matrices are used, for example:
rd_vcov = list(full = c("y1", "y2", "y5"),
full = c("y3", "y4"))
In models with multiple levels of nesting, separate structures can be specified per level:
rd_vcov = list(id = list(blockdiag = c("y1", "y2"),
full = c("y3", "y4"),
indep = "y5"),
center = "indep")
Random effects specified in brackets can also be used to indicate a multi-level structure in survival models, as would, for instance be needed in a multi-centre setting, where patients are from multiple hospitals.
It also allows to model time-dependent covariates in a proportional
hazards survival model (using coxph_imp), also in combination with
additional grouping levels.
In time-dependent proportional hazards models,
last-observation-carried-forward is used to fill in missing values in the
time-varying covariates, and to determine the value of the covariate at the
event time. Preferably, all time-varying covariates should be measured at
baseline (timevar = 0). If a value for a time-varying covariate needs to be
filled in and there is no previous observation, the next observation will be
carried backward.
It is not possible to specify transformations of outcome variables, i.e., it is not possible to use a model formula like
log(y) ~ x1 + x2 + ...
In the specific case of a transformation with the natural logarithm, a log-normal model can be used instead of a normal model.
Moreover, it is not possible to use . to indicate that all variables in a
data.frame other than the outcome variable should be used as covariates.
I.e., a formula y ~ . is not valid in JointAI.
For multi-level settings, the data must be in long format, so that repeated measurements are recorded in separate rows.
For survival data with time-varying covariates (coxph_imp and
JM_imp) the data should also be in long format. The
survival/censoring times and event indicator variables must be stored in
separate variables in the same data and should be constant across all rows
referring to the same subject.
During the pre-processing of the data the survival/censoring times will
automatically be merged with the observation times of the time-varying
covariates (which must be supplied via the argument timevar).
It is possible to have multiple time-varying covariates, which do not
have to be measured at the same time points, but there can only be one
timevar.

See also the vignette:
Parameter Selection
Named vector specifying which parameters should be monitored. This can be
done either directly by specifying the name of the parameter or indirectly
by one of the key words selecting a set of parameters.
Except for other, in which parameter names are specified directly,
parameter (groups) are just set as TRUE or FALSE.
Models are divided into two groups, the main models, which are the models
for which the user has explicitly specified a formula (via formula
or fixed), and all other models, for which models were specified
automatically.
If left unspecified, monitor_params = c("analysis_main" = TRUE)
will be used.
| name/key word | what is monitored |
analysis_main | betas and sigma_main, tau_main
(for beta regression) or shape_main
(for parametric survival models), gamma_main
(for cumulative logit models),
D_main (for multi-level models) and
basehaz in proportional hazards models) |
analysis_random | ranef_main, D_main,
invD_main, RinvD_main |
other_models | alphas, tau_other, gamma_other,
delta_other |
imps | imputed values |
betas | regression coefficients of the main analysis model |
tau_main | precision of the residuals from the main analysis model(s) |
sigma_main | standard deviation of the residuals from the main analysis model(s) |
gamma_main | intercepts in ordinal main model(s) |
delta_main | increments of ordinal main model(s) |
ranef_main | random effects from the main analysis model(s)
b |
D_main | covariance matrix of the random effects from the main model(s) |
invD_main | inverse(s) of D_main |
RinvD_main | matrices in the priors for invD_main |
alphas | regression coefficients in the covariate models |
tau_other | precision parameters of the residuals from covariate models |
gamma_other | intercepts in ordinal covariate models |
delta_other | increments of ordinal intercepts |
ranef_other | random effects from the other models b |
D_other | covariance matrix of the random effects from the other models |
invD_other | inverses of D_other |
RinvD_other | matrices in the priors for invD_other |
other | additional parameters |
For example:
monitor_params = c(analysis_main = TRUE, tau_main = TRUE,
sigma_main = FALSE)
would monitor the regression parameters betas and the
residual precision tau_main instead of the residual standard
deviation sigma_main.
For a linear model, monitor_params = c(imps = TRUE) would monitor
betas, and sigma_main (because analysis_main = TRUE by
default) as well as the imputed values.
In the default setting for cumulative logit models, i.e, rev = NULL, the
odds for a variable yascii with Kascii ordered categories
are defined as (P(y_i > k)P(y_i k)) =
_k + _i, k = 1, ..., K-1,ascii where
_kascii is a category specific intercept and
_iascii the subject specific linear predictor.
To reverse the odds to (P(y_i k)P(y_i >
k)) = _k + _i, k = 1, ..., K-1,ascii the name of
the response variable has to be specified in the argument rev, e.g., rev = c("y").
By default, proportional odds are assumed and only the intercepts differ
per category of the ordinal response. To allow for non-proportional odds,
i.e.,
(P(y_i > k)P(y_i k)) =
_k + _i + _ki, k = 1, ..., K-1,ascii
the argument nonprop can be specified. It takes a one-sided formula or
a list of one-sided formulas. When a single formula is supplied, or a
unnamed list with just one element, it is assumed that the formula
corresponds to the main model.
To specify non-proportional effects for linear predictors in models for
ordinal covariates, the list has to be named with the names of the
ordinal response variables.
For example, the following three specifications are equivalent and assume a
non-proportional effect of C1 on O1, but C1 is assumed to have a
proportional effect on the incomplete ordinal covariate O2:
clm_imp(O1 ~ C1 + C2 + B2 + O2, data = wideDF, nonprop = ~ C1)
clm_imp(O1 ~ C1 + C2 + B2 + O2, data = wideDF, nonprop = list(~ C1))
clm_imp(O1 ~ C1 + C2 + B2 + O2, data = wideDF, nonprop = list(O1 = ~ C1))
To specify non-proportional effects on O2, a named list has to be provided:
clm_imp(O1 ~ C1 + C2 + B2 + O2 + B1, data = wideDF,
nonprop = list(O1 = ~ C1,
O2 = ~ C1 + B1))
The variables for which a non-proportional effect is assumed also have to be part of the regular model formula.
(Note: This feature is experimental and has not been fully tested yet.)
Via the argument custom it is possible to provide custom sub-models that
replace the sub-models that are automatically generated by JointAI.
Using this feature it is, for instance, possible to use the value of
a repeatedly measured variable at a specific time point as covariate in
another model. An example would be the use of "baseline" cholesterol
(chol at day = 0) as covariate in a survival model.
First, the variable chol0 is added to the PBC data.
For most patients the value of cholesterol at baseline is observed, but not
for all. It is important that the data has a row with day = 0 for each
patient.
PBC <- merge(PBC,
subset(PBC, day == 0, select = c("id", "chol")),
by = "id", suffixes = c("", "0"))
Next, the custom piece of JAGS model syntax needs to be specified. We loop here only over the patients for which the baseline cholesterol is missing.
calc_chol0 <- "
for (ii in 1:28) {
M_id[row_chol0_id[ii], 3] <- M_lvlone[row_chol0_lvlone[ii], 1]
}"
To be able to run the model with the custom imputation "model" for baseline
cholesterol we need to provide the numbers of the rows in the data matrices
that contain the missing values of baseline cholesterol and the rows that
contain the imputed cholesterol at day = 0:
row_chol0_lvlone <- which(PBC$day == 0 & is.na(PBC$chol0))
row_chol0_id <- match(PBC$id, unique(PBC$id))[row_chol0_lvlone]
Then we pass both the custom sub-model and the additional data to the
analysis function coxph_imp(). Note that we explicitly need to specify
the model for chol.
coxph_imp(list(Surv(futime, status != "censored") ~ age + sex + chol0,
chol ~ age + sex + day + (day | id)),
no_model = "day", data = PBC,
append_data_list = list(row_chol0_lvlone = row_chol0_lvlone,
row_chol0_id = row_chol0_id),

# package \pkg{future} (see ?future::plan), for example:
future::plan(future::multisession, workers = 4)
mod8 <- lm_imp(y ~ C1 + C2 + B2, data = wideDF, n.iter = 500, n.chains = 8)
mod8$comp_info$future
# To re-set the strategy to sequential computation, the sequential strategy
# can be specified:
future::plan(future::sequential)
