Construct an initial guess for logistic Emax model parameters

Source: R/api.R
emax_logistic_init.Rd

Constructs a data frame of starting values and parameter bounds for the logistic Emax model, using the same heuristic approach as emax_nls_init() applied to the empirical logit scale rather than the raw response.

Usage

emax_logistic_init(structural_model, covariate_model, data)

Arguments

structural_model

A two-sided formula of the form response ~ exposure

covariate_model

A list of two-sided formulas, each specifying a covariate model for a structural parameter

data

A data frame

Value

A data frame with columns parameter, covariate, start, lower, and upper

Examples

emax_logistic_init(
  structural_model = rsp_2 ~ exp_1,
  covariate_model = list(E0 ~ cnt_a, Emax ~ 1, logEC50 ~ 1),
  data = emax_df
)
