In ITRSelect: Variable Selection for Optimal Individualized Dynamic Treatment Regime

Description

This data is constructed based on the Sequenced Treatment Alternatives to Relieve Depression (STAR*D) study. Due to a data confidentiality agreement, we are not able to provide the original dataset. Here, we generate simulated data that are similar to the original dataset.
