In kmlcov: Clustering longitudinal data using the likelihood as a metric of distance

Description

Write the new formula given the covariates with a level cluster effect, the number of clusters and the type parametric on time or not.

Usage

  addIndic(covar, nClust, parametric = TRUE, nomClust =
    'G')

Arguments

covar	A 'character' vector of covariates.
nClust	Number of clusters.
parametric	If [TRUE] it means we are parametric on time.
nomClust	The beginning of the name of the indicator covariates 'Ga, Gb, .., etc.

Details

Given the covariates and the number of clusters, it returns a character string which will be converted inside glmClust to a formula to represent the covariates with different cluster effect.

Value

A character string which will be used as a 'formula'.

Note

Meant to be used internally.
