SAT.stage1.sampling: Pilot sampling by SGS

In Penncil/SAT: Surrogate Assisted Two-wave Case Boosting Sampling

Description

This function implements the stage 1 subsampling of SAT by SGS method.

Usage

SAT.stage1.sampling(r1, n, S, Rpar = 0.5)

Arguments

r1	pilot subsample size.
n	total sample size.
S	a binary vector of length n. Surrogate observations for all samples.
Rpar	case proportion parameter. The recommended range is (0.3, 0.6), and default is 0.5.

Details

The region of Rpar that corresponds to lower MSEs is (0.3, 0.5) for case prevalence (i.e., P(Y=1|X)) around 4%. To avoid failures in the estimation when the case prevalence is low and r1 is small, a slightly larger Rpar in (0.5, 0.6) can be used without compromising the performance of SAT. Using Rpar=0.5 is a safe choice for most situations.

Value

The function returns a vector of patient index for whom the manual chart reviews are going to be collected.
