Transform data to the longitudinal unbalanced format
Transforms a longitudinal data set in the balanced format to the unbalanced format.
to.unbalanced(data, id.col, times, Y.col, other.col = NA)
data |
a data frame with longitudinal data in the balanced format. That
is, in the format of 'one row per subject'. |
id.col |
a column number, or column name, in the data frame |
times |
a vector with the unique time points where the patients are observed. This is the study design time points in a balanced data set. |
Y.col |
a vector of column numbers, or column names, of longitudinal
variables, and/or time dependent covariates in the data frame |
other.col |
a vector of column numbers, or column names, of baseline
covariates, and/or other subject level data, as for example, survival data.
Default does not include |
A data frame with longitudinal data in the unbalanced format. The unbalanced format is considered in this context as the format where each row has data on each subject observation.
