In PopED: Population (and Individual) Optimal Experimental Design

Description

Title Optimize the proportion of individuals in the design groups

Usage

optimize_groupsize(
  poped.db,
  props = c(poped.db$design$groupsize/sum(poped.db$design$groupsize)),
  trace = 1,
  ...
)

Arguments

poped.db	A PopED database.
props	The proportions of individuals in each group (relative to the total number of individuals) to start the optimization from.
trace	Should there be tracing of the optimization? Value can be integer values. Larger numbers give more information.
...	Arguments passed to ofv_fim and optim

Value

A list of the initial objective function value, optimal proportions, the objective function value with those proportions, the optimal number of individuals in each group (with integer number of individuals), and the objective function value with that number of individuals.

Examples

# 2 design groups with either early or late samples
