ZfromLMS: Calculate z-scores

In adblackwell/localgrowth: Calculates Z-scores From LMS Files for local growth references

Description

Calculates z-scores from a measure and LMS values

Usage

ZfromLMS(measure, la, mu, si)

Arguments

measure	a vector of numbers
la	a vector of lambda values
mu	a vector of mu values
si	a vector of sigma values

Details

ZfromLMS calcuates a z-score from a measure=y and the distribuiton parameters, la=λ, mu=μ, and si=σ, which describe the median, the generalized coefficient of variation, and the power in the Box-Cox transformation. It uses the formula: Z=((y / μ)^λ - 1)/(λ * σ)
