Standard Links — standard-link-user • jmpost

These functions are used to enable the use of the corresponding link function between the survival and longitudinal models in a joint model. Note that the exact implementation of the link function is model specific, see vignette("Statistical Specifications", package = "jmpost") for more details.

Usage

linkNone()

linkTTG(prior, model = PromiseLongitudinalModel(), ...)

linkDSLD(prior, model = PromiseLongitudinalModel(), ...)

linkIdentity(prior, model = PromiseLongitudinalModel(), ...)

linkGrowth(prior, model = PromiseLongitudinalModel(), ...)

linkShrinkage(prior, model = PromiseLongitudinalModel(), ...)

Arguments

prior: (Prior)
A Prior object.
model: (LongitudinalModel)
A LongitudinalModel object.
...: Not used.

Functions

linkNone(): No link (fit the survival and longitudinal models independently)
linkTTG(): Time to growth link
linkDSLD(): Derivative of the SLD over time link
linkIdentity(): Current SLD value link
linkGrowth(): Growth Parameter link
linkShrinkage(): Shrinkage Parameter link
