Calculate LD50
Description
Calculate the LD50 (the dose at which 50 pct of the subjects die) for a model of the form logit(p)=beta1 x1 + ... + betap xp + gamma d where none of the explanatory variables x1 ... xp contains the dose d.
Usage
dose.LD50(x, lambda)
Arguments
x |
A glm object (for logistic regression) |
lambda |
A vector of the same length as the number of parameters in x. |

Value
A data frame
