Importing Marginal Distributions

In RESIDE: Rapid Easy Synthesis to Inform Data Extraction

knitr::opts_chunk$set(
  collapse = TRUE,
  comment = "#>",
  eval = FALSE
)

Marginal distributions provided by a TRE should contain the following files:

• binary_variables.csv
• categorical_variables.csv
• continuous_variables.csv
• continuous_quantiles.csv
• summary.csv

Depending on the data from the TRE some of the files may not be present.

The marginal distributions can be imported using the import_marginal_distributions() function. By default the marginal distributions will be imported from the current working directory:

library(RESIDE)
marginals <- import_marginal_distributions()

The folder of the marginals can be changes using the folder_path parameter of the import_marginal_distributions() function:

library(RESIDE)
marginals <- import_marginal_distributions(
  folder_path = "/Users/ryan/marginals"
)

Additionally any of the file names can be changed using the relevant import_marginal_distributions()

parameters:

• binary_variables_file
• categorical_variables_file
• continuous_variables_file
• continuous_quantiles_file
• summary_file

However this is generally not advised.
