In RGS: Recursive Gradient Scanning Algorithm

Main function for cox regression analysis Performs regression analysis to identify optimal cutoffs and evaluate the model. Users are required to create and set the datadist option globally before using this function.

Description

Main function for cox regression analysis Performs regression analysis to identify optimal cutoffs and evaluate the model. Users are required to create and set the datadist option globally before using this function.

Usage

rgs_for_cox(my_data, u_variables, covariates)

Arguments

my_data	A dataframe containing the data.
u_variables	A character vector specifying the names of the U-shaped variables.
covariates	A character vector specifying the names of the covariates.

Value

A dataframe containing the best combination of cutoffs and associated AIC value.

Examples

library(rms)

data_path <- system.file("extdata", "cox_data.csv", package = "RGS")
my_data <- read.csv(data_path)

# Define variables
u_variables <- c("u1", "u2")
covariates <- c("l1", "c1")

# create and set the datadist option globally
dd <- datadist(my_data)
options(datadist = "dd")

rgs_for_cox(my_data, u_variables, covariates)
