REML Estimates of Individual Rates With Specified Rate Ratio

Obtains the restricted maximum likelihood estimates of individual proportions with specified rate ratio.

Usage

remlRateRatio(t1, y1, t2, y2, rateRatioH0 = 1)

Arguments

t1

The exposure for the active treatment group.

y1

The number of events for the active treatment group.

t2

The exposure for the control group.

y2

The number of events for the control group.

rateRatioH0

The specified rate ratio.

Value

A vector of the restricted maximum likelihood estimates of the incidence rates for the two treatment groups.
