estimDV: compute the De Vielder estimator

In rhosp: Side Effect Risks in Hospital : Simulation and Estimation

Description

compute the De Vielder estimator, in other words, do the same function as DV but returns more details about this estimator whereas DV only compute the lambda and mu of the De Vielder method

Usage

estimDV(fileName, toplot = TRUE, header = TRUE, ks = FALSE)

Arguments

fileName	the file in which the simulated data will be stored
toplot	a logical variable to plot the result of this estimation
header	a logical for : has the input file an header
ks	a logical for : do you want the Kolmogorv Smirnov test

Value

a list of the following components

CR	the CR risk constant calculated with the value of R
R	the risk constant estimated by this estimation
T	the vector of observations of the random variable T
lambdaHat	the best estimation of lambda
muHat	the best estimation of mu
lambdaEmp	the estimation of the lambda of the De Vielder method (in this case the same value as lambdaHat)
muEmp	the estimation of the mu of the De Vielder method (in this case the same value as mu)
