rms | R Documentation |
This is a series of special transformation functions (asis
,
pol
, lsp
, rcs
, catg
, scored
,
strat
, matrx
), fitting functions (e.g.,
lrm
,cph
, psm
, or ols
), and generic
analysis functions (anova.rms
, summary.rms
,
Predict
, plot.Predict
, ggplot.Predict
, survplot
,
fastbw
, validate
, calibrate
, specs.rms
,
which.influence
, latexrms
, nomogram
,
datadist
, gendata
)
that help automate many
analysis steps, e.g. fitting restricted interactions and multiple
stratification variables, analysis of variance (with tests of linearity
of each factor and pooled tests), plotting effects of variables in the
model, estimating and graphing effects of variables that appear non-linearly in the
model using e.g. inter-quartile-range hazard ratios, bootstrapping
model fits, and constructing nomograms for obtaining predictions manually.
Behind the scene is the Design
function which
stores extra attributes. Design()
is not intended to be
called by users.
Design
causes detailed design attributes
and descriptions of the distribution of predictors to be stored
in an attribute of the terms
component called Design
.
modelData
is a replacement for model.frame.default
that is
much streamlined and prepares data for Design()
. If a second
formula is present, modelData
ensures that missing data deletions
are the same for both formulas, and produces a second model frame for
formula2
as the data2
attribute of the main returned data frame.
modelData(data=environment(formula), formula, formula2=NULL,
weights, subset, na.action=na.delete, dotexpand=TRUE,
callenv=parent.frame(n=2))
Design(mf, formula=NULL, specials=NULL, allow.offset=TRUE, intercept=1)
# not to be called by the user; called by fitting routines
# dist <- datadist(x1,x2,sex,age,race,bp)
# or dist <- datadist(my.data.frame)
# Can omit call to datadist if not using summary.rms, Predict,
# survplot.rms, or if all variable settings are given to them
# options(datadist="dist")
# f <- fitting.function(formula = y ~ rcs(x1,4) + rcs(x2,5) + x1%ia%x2 +
# rcs(x1,4)%ia%rcs(x2,5) +
# strat(sex)*age + strat(race)*bp)
# See rms.trans for rcs, strat, etc.
# %ia% is restricted interaction - not doubly nonlinear
# for x1 by x2 this uses the simple product only, but pools x1*x2
# effect with nonlinear function for overall tests
# specs(f)
# anova(f)
# summary(f)
# fastbw(f)
# pred <- predict(f, newdata=expand.grid(x1=1:10,x2=3,sex="male",
# age=50,race="black"))
# pred <- predict(f, newdata=gendata(f, x1=1:10, x2=3, sex="male"))
# This leaves unspecified variables set to reference values from datadist
# pred.combos <- gendata(f, nobs=10) # Use X-windows to edit predictor settings
# predict(f, newdata=pred.combos)
# plot(Predict(f, x1)) # or ggplot(...)
# latex(f)
# nomogram(f)
