PruneByOutcome: Prune Trees by Outcome

In petedodd/HEdtree: A Package For Decision Tree Modelling

Prune Trees by Outcome

Description

Utility to subset trees by leaf outcome

Usage

PruneByOutcome(TREE, outcome, negate = FALSE)

Arguments

TREE	an input tree
outcome	a string for a variable that can be interpreted as >0 on positive outcome leaves
negate	whether the indicator should be negated

Details

The purpose of this utility is to allow calculation of tree averages conditional on a specified outcome. This has particular usefulness if a tree is to calculate transitions for use in with other models (e.g. ODEs or Markov models)

Value

a pruned tree only containing routes to leaves with positive outcomes
