Create a time-varying dataset
Description
Create a time-varying dataset
Usage
time_varying(
  x,
  specs,
  exposure,
  ...,
  grid.only = FALSE,
  time_units = c("days", "seconds"),
  id = "pat_id",
  sort = NA,
  n_cores = as.numeric(Sys.getenv("SLURM_CPUS_PER_TASK", 1))
)
check_tv_data(x, time_units, id, sort)
check_tv_exposure(x, expected_ids, time_units, id, ..., check_overlap = TRUE)
check_tv_specs(specs, expected_features = NULL)
Arguments
| x | A data.frame with four columns: <id>, "feature", "datetime", "value" | 
| specs | a data.frame with four columns: "feature", "use_for_grid", "lookback_start", "lookback_end", "aggregation". See details below. | 
| exposure | a data.frame with (at least) three columns: <id>, "exposure_start", "exposure_stop" | 
| ... | Other arguments. Currently just passes  | 
| grid.only | Should just the grid be computed and returned? Useful only for debugging | 
| time_units | What time units should be used? Seconds or days | 
| id | The id to use. Default is "pat_id" | 
| sort | Logical, indicating whether to sort the data before performing the analysis. By default ( | 
| n_cores | Number of cores to use. If slurm is being used, it checks the  | 
| expected_ids | A vector of expected ids based on the data. | 
| check_overlap | Should overlap be checked among exposure rows? A potentially costly operation, so you can opt out of it if you're really sure. | 
| expected_features | A vector of expected features based on the data. | 
Details
The defaults for specs are to use everything for the grid creation, and to set lookback_start=0, with a message in both cases.
Currently supported aggregation functions include counting ("count" or "n"), last-value-carried forward ("last value" or "lvcf"),
any/none ("any" or "binary"), time since ("time since" or "ts"), min/max/mean, and the special "event" (for which look backs are ignored).
The look back window begins at row_start - lookback_end and ends at row_start - lookback_start. Passing NA to either look back
changes the corresponding window boundary to exposure_start.
Value
A data.frame, with one row per grid value and one column per feature specification (plus grid columns).
Examples
  data(tv_example)
  time_varying(tv_example$data, tv_example$specs, tv_example$exposure,
               time_units = "days", id = "mcn")
Time-varying aggregation functions
Description
Time-varying aggregation functions
Usage
tv_count(value, ...)
tv_any(value, ...)
tv_lvcf(value, datetime, ...)
tv_ts(datetime, current_time, ...)
tv_min(value, ...)
tv_max(value, ...)
tv_mean(value, ...)
tv_median(value, ...)
tv_sum(value, ...)
Arguments
| value | A vector of values | 
| ... | Other arguments (not used at this time) | 
| datetime | A datetime | 
| current_time | The current grid row's time | 
Value
A scalar, indicating the corresponding aggregation over value or datetime.
