map: Create MAP

In mapfit: PH/MAP Parameter Estimation

Create MAP

Description

Create an instance of MAP

Usage

map(size, alpha, D0, D1)

Arguments

size	An integer for the number of phases
alpha	A vector of initial probability
D0	An infinitesimal generator without arrivals
D1	An infinitesimal generator with arrivals

Value

An instance of MAP

Note

This function can omit several patterns of arguments. For example, map(5) omit the arguments alpha, D0 D1 and xi. In this case, the default values are assigned to them.

Examples

## create a map (full matrix) with 5 phases
(param1 <- map(5))

## create a map with specific parameters
(param2 <- map(alpha=c(1,0,0),
              D0=rbind(c(-4,2,0),c(2,-5,1),c(1,0,-1)),
              D1=rbind(c(2,0,0),c(0,2,0),c(0,0,0))))
