p1 |
numeric denoting the negative power of log(dose+1) in the fractional polynomial. |
p2 |
numeric denoting the positive power of log(dose+1) in the fractional polynomial. |
fixed |
numeric vector. Specifies which parameters are fixed and at what value they are fixed. NAs for parameter that are not fixed. |
names |
a vector of character strings giving the names of the parameters (should not contain ":"). The default is reasonable (see under 'Usage'). The order of the parameters is: b, c, d, e, f (see under 'Details'). |
method |
character string indicating the self starter function to use. |
ssfct |
a self starter function to be used. |
fctName |
optional character string used internally by convenience functions. |
fctText |
optional character string used internally by convenience functions. |

The fractional polynomial dose-response models introduced by Namata et al. (2008) are implemented using the logistic model as base.
The value returned is a list containing the nonlinear function, the self starter function and the parameter names.
