Slice response for inverse regression

Constructs slice labels for continuous, categorical, or censored survival responses. For censored survival data, double slicing is used by first splitting on censoring status and then slicing observed time within each status group.

Usage

slice_response(
  y,
  nslices = 5L,
  response_type = c("continuous", "categorical", "survival"),
  delta = NULL
)

Arguments

y

Response vector. For survival data, observed time.

nslices

Number of slices for continuous data or per censoring-status group for survival data.

response_type

One of "continuous", "categorical", or "survival".

delta

Optional 0/1 event indicator for survival data.

Value

A list containing integer slice labels and metadata.
