cumulative_adopt_count: Cummulative count of adopters

Description

For each time period, calculates the number of adopters, the proportion of adopters, and the adoption rate.

Usage

cumulative_adopt_count(obj)

Value

A \(3\times T\) matrix, where its rows contain the number of adoptes, the proportion of adopters and the rate of adoption respectively, for earch period of time.

Arguments

obj

A \(n\times T\) matrix (Cumulative adoption matrix obtained from toa_mat) or a diffnet object.

Author

Details

The rate of adoption--returned in the 3rd row out the resulting matrix--is calculated as

$$\frac{q_t - q_{t-1}}{q_{t-1}}$$

where \(q_i\) is the number of adopters in time \(t\). Note that it is only calculated fot \(t>1\).
