# aVirtualTwins
|
||
|
||
An adaptation of VirtualTwins method from [Foster, J. C., Taylor, J. M.G. and Ruberg, S. J. (2011)](http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/sim.4322/abstract)
|
||
|
||
VirtualTwins is a method of subgroup identification from randomized clinical trial data.
|
||
|
||
As an intern in a french pharmaceutical group, i worked on this method and develop a package based on Jared Foster and al method.
|
||
|
||
## (Very) Quick Preview
|
||
|
||
```r
|
||
# Load data
|
||
data(sepsis)
|
||
# Format data
|
||
vt.obj <- vt.data(sepsis, "survival", "THERAPY", T)
|
||
# First step : create random forest model
|
||
vt.for <- vt.forest("one", vt.obj, T, ntree = 500)
|
||
# Second step : find rules in data
|
||
vt.trees <- vt.tree("class", vt.for, threshold = quantile(vt.for$difft, seq(.5,.8,.1)), maxdepth = 2)
|
||
# Print results
|
||
vt.sbgrps <- vt.subgroups(vt.trees)
|
||
knitr::kable(vt.sbgrps)
|
||
```

## Infos
|
||
|
||
Currently this package works for RCT with two treatments groups and binary outcome.
|
||
|
||
This is the *dev version 0.0.0.2* and often updated.
|
||
|
||
Most of the package use Reference Class programing (in R). Feel free to create your own classes.
|
||
|
||
I got a *WARNING* when Checking package for "cheking PDF version of manual" because of my version of LaTeX. Need to fix it.
