Make orthonomal basis for weight functions
Arguments
- exposure
Matrix of repeated measures of exposure that is n x T where n is the number of observations and T is the number of time points.
- df
Degrees of freedom (including intercept) for the natural spline basis to be used.
Value
A matrix with orthonormal basis expansions of exposure time. The matrix is T x df. These have the span of natural splines with an intercept and df degrees of freedom.
Examples
B <- makebasis(sbd_bdlim[,paste0("pm25_",1:37)], df=4)
