In d-morrison/rwicc: Regression with Interval-Censored Covariates

Inverse survival function for time-to-event variable with linear hazard function

Description

This function determines the seroconversion date corresponding to a provided probability of survival. See \Sexpr[results=rd]{tools:::Rd_expr_doi("10.1111/biom.13472")}, Supporting Information, Section A.4.

Usage

seroconversion_inverse_survival_function(u, e, hazard_alpha, hazard_beta)

Arguments

u	a vector of seroconversion survival probabilities
e	a vector of time differences between study start and enrollment (in years)
hazard_alpha	the instantaneous hazard of seroconversion on the study start date
hazard_beta	the change in hazard per year after study start date

Value

numeric vector of time differences between study start and seroconversion (in years)
