Ispline: Ispline

In ICsurv: Semiparametric Regression Analysis of Interval-Censored Data

Ispline

Description

Generates the I-spline basis matrix associated with integrated spline basis functions. Created by Cai and Wang in October, 2009.

Usage

Ispline(x, order, knots)

Arguments

x	the predictor variables.
order	the order of the basis functions.
knots	a sequence of increasing points specifying the placement of the knots.

Value

An I-spline basis matrix of dimension c(length(knots)+order-2, length(x)).
