fit_glm: Fit GLM on Covariate

In CausalInference/gfoRmula: Parametric G-Formula

Fit GLM on Covariate

Description

This internal function fits a generalized linear model (GLM) for a single covariate using the observed data.

Usage

fit_glm(covparams, covlink = NA, covfam, obs_data, j, model_fits)

Arguments

covparams	List of vectors, where each vector contains information for one parameter used in the modeling of the time-varying covariates (e.g., model statement, family, link function, etc.).
covlink	Vector of link functions.
covfam	Vector of character strings specifying the names of the family functions to be used for fitting the GLM.
obs_data	Data on which the model is fit.
j	Integer specifying the index of the covariate.
model_fits	Logical scalar indicating whether to return the fitted models. The default is FALSE.

Value

Fitted model for the covariate at index j.
