meEXD: Exponential decay model

In DoseResponse/medrc: Mixed effect dose-response curves

Description

Exponential decay model with or without a nonzero lower limit.

Usage

meEXD.2(x, d, e)

meEXD.3(x, c, d, e)

Arguments

x	numeric dose vector
d	upper limit
e	steepness
c	lower limit

Details

The exponential decay model is a three-parameter model with mean function:

f(x) = c + (d-c)(\exp(-x/e))

The parameter init is the upper limit (attained at x=0), the parameter plateau is the lower limit reached for x going to infinity and the parameter e>0 is determining the steepness of the decay. The curve is monotonously decreasing in x.
