export_calibration_info: Extract and export calibration information.

Description

Extract and export calibration information (e.g. baseline survival) for data in a familiarCollection.

Usage

export_calibration_info(
  object,
  dir_path = NULL,
  aggregate_results = TRUE,
  export_collection = FALSE,
  ...
)
# S4 method for familiarCollection
export_calibration_info(
  object,
  dir_path = NULL,
  aggregate_results = TRUE,
  export_collection = FALSE,
  ...
)
# S4 method for ANY
export_calibration_info(
  object,
  dir_path = NULL,
  aggregate_results = TRUE,
  export_collection = FALSE,
  ...
)

Value

A data.table (if dir_path is not provided), or nothing, as all data is exported to csv files.

Arguments

object

A familiarCollection object, or other other objects from which a familiarCollection can be extracted. See details for more information.

dir_path

Path to folder where extracted data should be saved. NULL will allow export as a structured list of data.tables.

aggregate_results

Flag that signifies whether results should be aggregated for export.

export_collection

(optional) Exports the collection if TRUE.

...

Arguments passed on to as_familiar_collection

familiar_data_names

Names of the dataset(s). Only used if the object parameter is one or more familiarData objects.

collection_name

Name of the collection.

Details

Data is usually collected from a familiarCollection object. However, you can also provide one or more familiarData objects, that will be internally converted to a familiarCollection object. It is also possible to provide a familiarEnsemble or one or more familiarModel objects together with the data from which data is computed prior to export. Paths to the previous files can also be provided.

All parameters aside from object and dir_path are only used if object is not a familiarCollection object, or a path to one.

Currently only baseline survival is exported as supporting calibration information. See export_calibration_data for export of direct assessment of calibration, including calibration and goodness-of-fit tests.
