   1 #' WP method background function WP_known

   3 #' This is a background/internal function called by \code{WP}. It computes the
   4 #' maximum likelihood estimator of R0 assuming that the serial distribution is
   5 #' known and finite discrete.
   6 #'
   7 #' @param NT Vector of case counts.
   8 #' @param p Discretized version of the serial distribution.
   9 #'
  10 #' @return The function returns the maximum likelihood estimator of R0.

  27 #' WP method background function WP_unknown
  28 #'
  29 #' This is a background/internal function called by \code{WP}. It computes the
  30 #' maximum likelihood estimator of R0 assuming that the serial distribution is
  31 #' unknown but comes from a discretized gamma distribution. The function then
  32 #' implements a simple grid search algorithm to obtain the maximum likelihood
  33 #' estimator of R0 as well as the gamma parameters.
  34 #'
  35 #' @param NT Vector of case counts.
  36 #' @param B Length of grid for shape and scale (grid search parameter).
  37 #' @param shape.max Maximum shape value (grid \code{search} parameter).
  38 #' @param scale.max Maximum scale value (grid \code{search} parameter).
  39 #' @param tol cutoff value for cumulative distribution function of the serial
  40 #'            distribution (defaults to 0.999).
  41 #'
  42 #' @return The function returns \code{Rhat}, the maximum likelihood estimator of
  43 #'         R0, as well as the maximum likelihood estimator of the discretized
  44 #'         serial distribution given by \code{p} (the probability mass function)
  45 #'         and \code{range.max} (the distribution has support on the integers
  46 #'         one to \code{range.max}). The function also returns \code{resLL} (all
  47 #'         values of the log-likelihood) at \code{shape} (grid for shape
  48 #'         parameter) and at \code{scale} (grid for scale parameter), as well as
  49 #'         \code{resR0} (the full vector of maximum likelihood estimators),
  50 #'         \code{JJ} (the locations for the likelihood for these), and \code{J0}
  51 #'         (the location for the maximum likelihood estimator \code{Rhat}). If
  52 #'         \code{JJ} and \code{J0} are not the same, this means that the maximum
  53 #'         likelihood estimator is not unique.
