DADesign-class: Class for the time-to-DLT augmented CRM design

Description Slots Examples

Description

This class has special requirements for the model and data slots in comparison to the parent class Design:

Slots

model

the model to be used, an object of or inheriting from class Model, see in particular DALogisticLogNormal and TITELogisticLogNormal which make use of the time-to-DLT data

data

what is the dose grid, any previous data, etc., contained in an object of class DataDA

safetyWindow

still to be documented.
