santaR_fit: Generate a SANTAObj for a variable

In santaR: Short Asynchronous Time-Series Analysis

Generate a SANTAObj for a variable

Description

Generate a SANTAObj containing all the splines model for individual and group time evolutions. Once all the splines representing individual and group evolutions are fitted, all time-points are back-projected (projected) and employed in subsequent analysis in place of the input measurements (functional approach). A grouping can be provided to separate individuals and compare trajectories: any number of groups can be provided, but comparision of group trajectories can only be executed between 2 groups.

• Individual trajectories with less than 4 time-points are rejected due to constraints on smooth.spline fitting (number of time-points < 4).

• Individual trajectories with less time-points than df are rejected due to constraints on smooth.spline fitting (number of time-points < df).

• Rejected individual trajectories are not taken into account for mean curves calculations.

Usage

santaR_fit(inputMatrix, df, grouping = NA, verbose = TRUE)

Arguments

inputMatrix	data.frame of measurements for each IND x TIME as generated by get_ind_time_matrix. Rows are unique Individual IDs and columns unique measurement Time. Pairs of (IND,TIME) without a measurement are left as NA.
df	(float) Degree of freedom to employ for fitting the smooth.spline
grouping	NA or a data.frame with 2 columns (ind and group) listing as rows each unique Individual ID and the corresponding group membership, as generated by get_grouping. Default is NA for no groups.
verbose	(bool) If TRUE output the progress of fitting. Default is TRUE.

Value

A SANTAObj containing all the spline models with individual and group time evolutions, for further analysis.

Details:
