DA_FDN2M2: Data Analysis of (N2,M2)

In njuwill/SPPcomb: Combining Different Spatial Datasets in Cancer Risk Estimation

Description

The main function to solve the estimating equations constructed by (N2,M2). Since there is just one case data, no selection bias needed.

Usage

DA_FDN2M2(realdata_covariates, realdata_alpha, p, beta0)

Arguments

realdata_covariates	a list contains the following data matrics: CASEZhat_2, CASEZhat_22, CONTZhat_2, CONTZhat_22
realdata_alpha	a list contains the following data matrics: prob_case_22,prob_cont_2, pwt_cont_2
p	number of parameters.
beta0	an initial parameter for solver "nleqslv".

Details

The function solves estimating equation based on (N2,M2), see Huang(2014).

Value

A list of estimator and its standard deviation.
