lcModels: Construct a list of 'lcModel' objects

In latrend: A Framework for Clustering Longitudinal Data

Construct a list of lcModel objects

Description

A general overview of the lcModels class can be found here.

The lcModels() function creates a flat (named) list of lcModel objects. Duplicates are preserved.

Usage

lcModels(...)

Arguments

...	lcModel, lcModels, or a recursive list of lcModel objects. Arguments may be named.

Value

A lcModels object containing all specified lcModel objects.

Functionality

• Print an argument summary for each of the models.

• Convert to a data.frame of method arguments.

• Subset the list.

• Compute an internal metric or external metric.

• Obtain the best model according to minimizing or maximizing a metric.

• Obtain the summed estimation time.

• Plot a metric across a variable.

• Plot the cluster trajectories.

Examples

lmkmMethod <- lcMethodLMKM(Y ~ Time, id = "Id", time = "Time")
lmkmModel <- latrend(lmkmMethod, latrendData)
rngMethod <- lcMethodRandom("Y", id = "Id", time = "Time")
rngModel <- latrend(rngMethod, latrendData)

lcModels(lmkmModel, rngModel)

lcModels(defaults = c(lmkmModel, rngModel))
