studyPeriod: Compute the study period

In EpiSignalDetection: Signal Detection Analysis

Description

Compute a dataframe including two types of dates corresponding to the study period defined in the list of parameters input
(i.e. StudyPeriod = approximated daily date; Time = exact date in the format according to the time unit parameter)

Usage

studyPeriod(input)

Arguments

input

list of parameters as defined in the Signal Detection Application (see runEpiSDApp) (i.e. list(disease, country, indicator, stratification, unit, daterange, algo, testingperiod))

Value

Dataframe including the complete time series with no gaps:

StudyPeriod	approximated daily date e.g. 2010-01-01
Time	exact date in the format according to the time unit parameter e.g. 2010-01

Examples

#-- Setting the parameters to run the report for
input <- list(
disease = "Salmonellosis",
country = "EU-EEA - complete series",
indicator = "Reported cases",
stratification = "Confirmed cases",
unit = "Month",
daterange = c("2010-01-01", "2016-12-31"),
algo = "FarringtonFlexible",
testingperiod = 5
)

StudyPeriod <- studyPeriod(input)
head(StudyPeriod)
