seqetm {TraMineR} | R Documentation |
This function automatically create an event transition matrix to transform state sequences data in TSE format (transitions).
seqetm(seq, method = "transition", use.labels = TRUE, sep = ">", bp = "", ep = "end")
seq |
The state sequence to create transitions from |
method |
The method to use. Actually, "transition" and "period" are available. |
use.labels |
If true, transitions names are build from sequence labels instead of sequence alphabet. |
sep |
Separator to use between period in "transition" method. |
bp |
Prefix to signal begining of a period |
ep |
Prefix to signal end of a period |
Two method are implemented and can be set throught the method parameter:
The event matrix.
See Also seqformat
for conversion to TSE format and seqecreate
for handling transition data.
