Set Up Exposure

Source: R/exposure.R
setup_exposure.Rd

Set up the model for exposure. Current options for EHname

  • pois - a Poisson model

  • nb - a Negative Binomial model family

Usage

setup_exposure(EHname, xds_obj, i = 1, options = list())

Arguments

EHname

environmental heterogeneity model name

xds_obj

an xds model object

i

the host species index

options

set up options list

Value

an xds object

Note

The daily EIR is an expected value, but that expectation can have a distribution in a population. For example, if the expectation is gamma distributed, then we would get a negative binomial distribution of bites per person.

Note that Exposure handles local exposure and exposure while traveling separately.
