Initialize Stochastic Parameters

Read the stochasticity information from the model inputs Excel file, and save to a location in the global package environment.

InitializeStochasticParameters(
  stochasticParametersSheetName = .defaultStochasticParmsSheet,
  changeRateLimitsSheetName = .defaultChangeRateLimitsSheet
)

Arguments

stochasticParametersSheetName

Name of Excel sheet holding stochastic parameters (mean, variance, etc) for different computations

changeRateLimitsSheetName

Name of Excel sheet holding max/min ranges for generated mortality, fertility, and incidence rate

Value

NULL (invisible)

Examples

if (FALSE) {
library(pacehrh)

pacehrh::InitializePopulation()
pacehrh::InitializeScenarios()
pacehrh::InitializeStochasticParameters()
pacehrh::InitializeSeasonality()

scenario <- "ScenarioName"

results <-
  pacehrh::RunExperiments(
    scenarioName = scenario,
    trials = 100
  )
