bias: Calculate the bias

In simMetric: Metrics (with Uncertainty) for Simulation Studies that Evaluate Statistical Methods

Calculate the bias

Description

Calculates the bias of the model estimates from the true value and the Monte Carlo standard error for this estimate.

Usage

bias(true_value, estimates, get = c("bias", "bias_mcse"), na.rm = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

true_value	The true value which is being estimated.
estimates	A numeric vector containing the estimates from the model(s).
get	A character vector containing the values returned by the function.
na.rm	A logical value indicating whether NA values for estimates should be removed before bias calculation.
...	Additional arguments to be ignored.

Value

A named vector containing the estimate and the Monte Carlo standard error for the bias.

Examples

bias(true_value=0, estimates=rnorm(100))
