offset parameter in renewalCount function
Closed this issue · 1 comments
I have a database and I would like to use the gamma and weibull distribution to model the number of events that occurred during different time intervals.
I have found the countr package to meet my requirements perfectly. I made two scenarios, in the first one I model the number of events according to some covariates without using the offset parameter. In the second scenario I used the offset parameter. Comparing summary of the two scenarios, the result is identical. This result does not match my expectations and I do not know why?
Regarding the Countr package, I would like to know if the offset parameter is implemented in the renewalCount function ?
I am a new user of rstudio.
Thanks
Currently the offset
argument is ignored, as documented in renewalCount()
:
...
offset - optional numeric vector with an a priori known component
to be included in the linear predictor of the count model.
Currently not used.
