simMSM (version 1.1.2)

simto: Simulate New Final State.

Description

Simulation of the new final state for given entry time, inital state, all cause baseline hazard rates, transition specific covariate effect functions and transition specific values of the linear predictor.

Usage

simto(entry.ij, from.ij, mpl, eta.ij, x.i, diagnostics, max.time)

Arguments

entry.ij

current entry time

from.ij

current initial state

mpl

model parameter list.

eta.ij

transition specific values of the linear predictor.

x.i

vector of covariate values if indivdual i.

diagnostics

logical triggering whether diagnostics about errors (most likeliy because uniroot does not find a root) should be printed during the simulation process?

max.time

maximum entry time

Value

• list including new final state.

Examples
