Get an object to fit the TITE-CRM model using the dfcrm package.

get_dfcrm_tite(parent_selector_factory = NULL, skeleton, target, ...)

Arguments

parent_selector_factory: optional object of type selector_factory that is in charge of dose selection before this class gets involved. Leave as NULL to just use CRM from the start.
skeleton: Dose-toxicity skeleton, a non-decreasing vector of probabilities.
target: We seek a dose with this probability of toxicity.
...: Extra args are passed to crm.

Value

an object of type selector_factory that can fit the CRM model to outcomes.

Details

This function is a short-cut to get_dfcrm(tite = TRUE). See get_dfcrm for full details.
