estimate_ve: Apply different VE estimation methods

In fluvee/wave: Waning Vaccine Effectiveness

Apply different VE estimation methods

Description

This function applies teh Durham method, Tian method, and ML method to data from a vaccine efficacy/effectiveness study.

Usage

estimate_ve(
  dat,
  params,
  write_to_file = TRUE,
  path = getwd(),
  par_tab,
  mcmc_pars
)

Arguments

dat	data set
params	list of input parameters
write_to_file	logical. If true, outputs are written to file
path	path where files are to be written. Defaults to working directory
par_tab	data frame of parameters for ML method
mcmc_pars	vector of MCMC inputs

Value

list of VE estimates from each method, maximum likelihood parameter estimates from the ML method for each simulation, the proportion of times the null hypothesis was rejected for each method, mean VE estimate over simulations for each time period, and the mean maximum likelihood parameters over all simulations.
