In xpose4: Diagnostics for Nonlinear Mixed-Effect Models

Read the results file from a Numerical or Visual Predictive Check run in PsN

Description

This function reads in a results file from running either the PsN command vpc or npc. The function then parses the file and passes the result to plotting functions.

Usage

read.npc.vpc.results(
  vpc.results = NULL,
  npc.results = NULL,
  verbose = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

vpc.results	The name of the results file from running the PsN command vcp. Often this is named ‘vpc_results.csv’. If the file is in a directory different then the working directory then you can define a relative or absolute path to the file by, for example, ‘./vpc_strat_WT_4_mirror_5/vpc_results.csv’.
npc.results	The name of the results file from running the PsN command npc. Often this is named ‘npc_results.csv’. relative or absolute paths to the file are allowed as for vpc.results.
verbose	Text messages passed to screen or not.
...	arguments passed to other functions.

Details

One of vpc.results or npc.results are necessary. If both or none are defined then the function does nothing and a NULL is returned from the function.

Value

A list of values is returned.

model.file	The model file that PsN ran either the npc or vpc with
dv.var	The dependent variable used in the calculations.
idv.var	The independent variable used in the calculations. NULL if npc.results is used.
num.tables	The number of separate tables in the results file.
by.interval	The conditioning interval for the stratification variable, only returned if vpc.results is used.
result.tables	The results tables from the results file. this is a list.
