  ...
)

Arguments

x

An object of class LandmarkAnalysis.

landmarks

A numeric vector of landmark times.

method

Longitudinal data analysis method used to make predictions

dynamic_covariates

Vector of time-varying covariates to be modelled as the outcome of a longitudinal model.

validation_fold

If positive, cross-validation fold where model is fitted. If 0 (default), model fitting is performed in the complete dataset.

...

Additional arguments passed to the prediction function (e.g. number of classes/clusters for lcmm).

Value
