Histogram Binning Procedures for Pooled Hazards Regression
Usage
make_bins(grid_var, grid_type = c("hist", "scaled"), max_bins = 30L)
Arguments
- grid_var
The
numeric
vector over which histogram-based binning is to be performed.- grid_type
A
character
indicating the choice of binning rule, with"hist"
corresponding to the use of several rules proposed for optimal histogram construction and"scaled"
corresponding to the use of various pre-set multiples of the square root of the sample size.- max_bins
A
numeric
indicating the maximum number of bins that are allowed in the grid for building the histogram based discretization.
