Add user defined variability on parameters to a population.

Usage

extendPopulationByUserDefinedParams(
  population,
  parameterPaths,
  meanValues,
  sdValues,
  distributions = Distributions$Normal
)

Arguments

population

Object of type Population

parameterPaths

Vector of parameter path for which the variability is to be added.

meanValues

Vector of mean values of the parameters. Must have the same length as parameterPaths. The type of mean (arithmetic, geometric) depends on the selected distribution. The values must be in the base units of the parameters.

sdValues

Vector of standard deviation values of the parameters. Must have the same length as parameterPaths. The type of standard deviation depends on the selected distribution.

distributions

Type of distribution from which the random values will be sampled. Must have the same length as parameterPaths. A list of supported distributions is defined in Distributions. Default is "Normal".
