valid_individual: Generates an individual with reasonable ed25 and ed75 values.

In mellux-project/melluxdrc: melluxdrc

Generates an individual with reasonable ed25 and ed75 values.

Description

Generates an individual with reasonable ed25 and ed75 values.

Usage

valid_individual(
  thresh_25,
  thresh_75,
  eds_25,
  eds_75,
  p1_distribution_parameters,
  p2_distribution_parameters
)

Arguments

thresh_25	lower bound on simulated ed25 vs observed ed25 (bound calculated as thresh_25 * observed)
thresh_75	upper bound on simulated ed75 vs observed ed75 (bound calculated as thresh_75 * observed)
eds_25	vector of ed25s from estimates from Phillips et al. (2017)
eds_75	vector of ed75s from estimates from Phillips et al. (2017)
p1_distribution_parameters	a named list of items used to characterise the p1 distribution: cdf_inv_full, weight. Here cdf_inv is the inverse-cdf characterising the distribution of p1 distribution from Phillips et al. (2017); "weight" a number (0<=weight<=1) used to control the variance reduction in individual heterogeneity.
p2_distribution_parameters	a named list of items used to characterise the log_p2|p1 distribution. It comprises: "alpha" posteriors draws for the intercept in the regression of log_p2 on p1; "beta" posterior draws for slope parameter in the regression of log_p2 on p1; "sigma0" posterior draws for the constant noise term in the regression of log_p2 on p1; "sigma1" posterior draws for the heteroscedastic noise term in the regression of log_p2 on p1; "weight" a number (0<=weight<=1) used to control the variance reduction in individual heterogeneity.

Value

a tibble containing dose-response parameters for an individual
