ProportionalHazardsSetInitialEstimates Method

Sets the initial parameter estimates.

Namespace: Imsl.Stat
Assembly: ImslCS (in ImslCS.dll) Version: 6.5.2.0

Syntax

public virtual void SetInitialEstimates(
	double[] initialCoef
)

Public Overridable Sub SetInitialEstimates ( 
	initialCoef As Double()
)

public:
virtual void SetInitialEstimates(
	array<double>^ initialCoef
)

abstract SetInitialEstimates : 
        initialCoef : float[] -> unit 
override SetInitialEstimates : 
        initialCoef : float[] -> unit

initialCoef: Type: SystemDouble

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ClassificationVariableLimitException	is thrown if the classification variable limit set by the user through the MaxClass property has been exceeded.

Remarks

Care should be taken to ensure that the supplied estimates for the model coefficients $\beta$ correspond to the generated covariate vector $z_{ki}$ .

Default: The initial parameter estimates are all 0.0.
