Create a common transition matrix

• full: All possible transitions between non-terminal and non-source states are added, as well as transition to terminal states from all states.

• survival: Basic survival model with single transition

• comprisk: Competing risks transition matrix

• illnessdeath: Illness-Death model

• progression: Disease progression model

• diamond: Two intermediate states both leading to same terminal state

Usage

transmat_full(
  state_names = LETTERS[1:4],
  sources = 1,
  terminal = length(state_names),
  self_loops = TRUE
)

transmat_comprisk(state_names = LETTERS[1:4])

transmat_survival(state_names = c("Alive", "Dead"))

transmat_illnessdeath(state_names = c("Healthy", "Diseased", "Dead"))

transmat_progression(state_names = c("Healthy", "Mild", "Severe", "Dead"))

transmat_diamond(state_names = LETTERS[1:4])

Arguments

state_names

Names of the states. The length of this character vector defines the number of states.

sources

Indices of source states.

terminal

Indices of terminal states

self_loops

Add self-loops to non-terminal and non-source states?

Value

A TransitionMatrix
