tPx: Transition Probabilities

In nathanesau/MSM: Multiple state models

Description

Probability of transitioning from one state to another within t years. Approximation based on the Kolmogorov forward equations.

Usage

tPx(object, t = 0, x = 0, h = 1/12, all = FALSE, joint = FALSE,
  y = 0)

Arguments

object	An object of class msm
t	The number of years forward
x	The age of the individual.
h	The time step. By default 1/12 is used for the approximation
all	Indicates whether the probabilities at each time point should be returned or whether only the final probability matrix should be returned (at time t)
joint	Indicate whether there are two lives, x and y that should should be used in the transition matrix functions
y	The age of the second individual if the model is joint

Value

A matrix of transition probabilities
