Function reference

All functions

append_new_entry_to_table()

Append new entry to article, outbreak, model, or parameter table

article_column_type()

Define the column types for the article data frame

check_ulim()

Check upper limit of parameter values

color_palette()

Define a consistent color palette for use in figures. Palettes are currently defined for parameters and countries. Any other variable will return NULL

country_palette()

country_palette Function

create_new_article_entry()

Create new article entry

create_new_model_entry()

Create new model entry

create_new_outbreak_entry()

Create new outbreak entry

create_new_parameter_entry()

Create new parameter entry

data_outbreak_table()

Process data for outbreak table

data_param_table()

Process data for delay table

date_start()

create a date

delay_table()

Create table for human delay parameters

delays_to_days()

This function converts delays in different units (hours, weeks, months) to days. It checks if all delays are in days and warns the user if not. It then converts hours to days by dividing by 24, weeks to days by multiplying by 7, and months to days by multiplying by 30.

filter_cols()

Filter columns of a data frame based on specified conditions.

filter_df_for_metamean()

Prepare parameter dataframe for meta analysis of means

forest_plot()

Basic forest plot

forest_plot_delay_int()

Create forest plot for human delays

forest_plot_doubling_time()

Forest plot for doubling time

forest_plot_incubation_period()

Create forest plot for incubation period

forest_plot_infectious_period()

Create forest plot for infectious period

forest_plot_r0()

forest_plot_r0 function

forest_plot_rt()

Generate a forest plot for effective reproduction number (Rt)

forest_plot_serial_interval()

Create forest plot for serial interval

get_parameter()

retrieve all parameters of specified type

get_table_field_options()

Utility to obtain available fields in a specified table

invert_inverse_params()

Inverts the values of selected parameters in a data frame. Sometimes parameters are reported in inverse form (e.g., a delay might be reported as per day instead of days). Here we carry out a very simple transformation to convert these to the correct form by inverting the parameter value and the uncertainty bounds. This may not be appropriate in all cases, and must be checked on a case-by-case basis. This function takes a data frame as input and inverts the values of selected parameters. The selected parameters are identified by the column 'inverse_param'. The function performs the following operations:

• Inverts the parameter values of the selected parameters.

• Swaps the upper and lower bounds of the selected parameters.

• Inverts the uncertainty values of the selected parameters.

• Updates the logical vector to indicate that the parameters are no longer inverted.

• Does not change the unit of the parameters, as it remains the same as the original parameter.
