gen.intercepts: Generate Baserate Statistics
In informR: Sequence Statistics for Relational Event Models

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) See Also Examples

Generates baserate statistics in statslist form for direct input into rem() in Butts's relevent R package.

1	gen.intercepts(evl, basecat=NULL, type=1, contr=TRUE)

`evl`	An eventlist. Possibly passed from `gen.evl()`
`basecat`	A string indicating which event to treat as the baseline group. Default is NULL, which uses the first event in `evl$event.key`.
`type`	An integer indicating the location of the statistics in the statslist. 1 for global, 2 for local. Default is global.
`contr`	Logical. Should the routine use SAS-like contrasts to generate the statistics? Defaults to true (which is faster than the alternative).

A list containing:

list

An i,j,k array consisting of the i'th event's j by k identity contrast matrix.
