Create a Markov transition matrix with probabilities of transitioning between every state

Create a Markov transition matrix with probabilities of transitioning between every state

Usage

createMarkovTransitionMatrix(
  colPrev,
  colCur,
  estimateZeroTransitions = FALSE,
  estimateZeroTransitionsInitial = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

colPrev, colCur

Column names in the dataset for the previous and current states (may be any R object that can be coerced to a character string, ordered objects are usually preferred)

estimateZeroTransitions

Should transitions that have zero occurrences be estimated? This is done by setting the state to have a single transition.

estimateZeroTransitionsInitial

Should transitions that are only initial states be estimated (ignored if `estimateZeroTransitions = FALSE`)

...

Ignored

Value

A square matrix with row and column names for each state where rows are the prior state and columns are the current state.
