To load a dataset in Monolix, follow these steps:
-
Create a new project and load the data set file
-
Dataset that needs formatting: If needed, format your data first by selecting ‘Browse’ under ‘Format data’ to use the data formatting module which allows you to:
-
to handle several header lines
-
merge several observation columns into one
-
add censoring information based on tags in the observation column
-
add treatment information manually or from external files
-
add more columns such as covariates from an external file
-
-
Already formatted dataset: If the data is already in the right format, load it directly by selecting ‘Browse’ under ‘Data file’
-
If the dataset does not follow a formatting rule, the dataset will not be accepted, but errors will guide you to find what is missing and could be added by data formatting.
-
Column tagging : tag the columns not recognized automatically to indicate their type and click on ACCEPT.
-
Specifying observation types: specify if the observation is of type continuous, count/categorical or event.
-
Filters: If needed, filter your dataset to use only part of it in the Filters tab
-
Explore: The interpreted dataset is displayed in Data, and Plots and covariate statistics are generated.
To use a dataset from a PKanalix project, or to use simulations from a Simulx project, you can directly import or export the PKanalix/Simulx project which will automatically define the dataset in the Data tab.
