samplesize: Determine the Sample Size Requirement

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) Examples

Description

Determine the sample size to achieve the target probability of correct classification (PCC) using various design methods. Sample sizes are chosen using a binary search algorithm between the range nmin to nmax.

Usage

1
	samplesize(target, nmin, nmax, f, ...)

Arguments

target

Set the target probability of correct classifcation (PCC) for the study.

nmin

The mimimum sample size for both groups combined. Typically 0.05 smaller than the ideal PCC. It must be an even number.

nmax

The maximum sample size for both groups combined. So it must be an even number.

f

Specify the PCC estimation function: ds_method, cv_method, or hct_method

...

The design assumptions and other arguments for the PCC estimation function, f.

Value

The smallest sample size that achieves the target PCC.
