Method new()

Usage

Fusion$new(..., stratification = NULL, stratification_joint = NULL)

Arguments

...

objects of class TEstimator and SEstimator.

stratification

a character vector specifying variables. The variables are used to select subgroups individually or in combination depending on stratification_joint. Default value is NULL.

stratification_joint

a logical indicating if subgroups are selected based on levels of individual variable in stratification or levels of combined variables in stratifiation. Default value is NULL.

Method plot()

Usage

Fusion$plot()

---

Method print()

Usage

Fusion$print()

---

Method evaluate()

Usage

Fusion$evaluate()

---

Method clone()

The objects of this class are cloneable with this method.

Usage

Fusion$clone(deep = FALSE)

Arguments

deep

Whether to make a deep clone.
