accrual_predict

Usage

accrual_predict(accrual_df, accrual_fit, target)

Arguments

accrual_df

accrual data frame produced by accrual_create_df (optionally with by option as a list)

accrual_fit

linear model produced by accrual_linear_model, can be a list with the same length as accrual_df

target

target sample size or date to predict end date or expected sample size, respectively. A single number or date, or a named vector with the same length as accrual_df (to add site-specific targets).

Value

Returns the predicted end date(s) or the predicted sample size(s).

Details

Prediction of end date based on an accrual data frame produced by accrual_create_df, a fitted regression model produced by accrual_linear_model and a target sample size.
