# Access the xpdb data

#### Benjamin Guiastrennec

#### 01 February, 2024

The xpose package was designed as a standardized interface between model outputs and R. Hence model output files can easily be imported in R and used to summarize data or create plots.

### Glimpse at the xpdb

The files attached to an xpdb object can be displayed to the console simply by writing the xpdb name to the console or by using the `print()` function. Any of these files can be accessed from the xpdb using one of the functions listed below.

    xpdb # or print(xpdb)

    run001.lst overview:
     - Software: nonmem 7.3.0
     - Attached files (memory usage 1.4 Mb):
       + obs tabs: $prob no.1: catab001.csv, cotab001, patab001, sdtab001
       + sim tabs: $prob no.2: simtab001.zip
       + output files: run001.cor, run001.cov, run001.ext, run001.grd, run001.phi, run001.shk
       + special: <none>
     - gg_theme: theme_readable
     - xp_theme: theme_xp_default
     - Options: dir = data, quiet = FALSE, manual_import = NULL

### Access the model code

The `get_code()` function can be used to access the parsed model code from the xpdb. This code was used to create the summary and find table names. The parsed code can be used to get additional information about the run. If the argument `.problem` is specified a subset of the code can be returned based on `$PROBLEM`.

Note that general code warnings and PsN outputs appended are listed as problem 0.

    code <- get_code(xpdb)

### Access the output data

The `get_data()` function can be used to access the imported table files. Tables can be accessed by `table` name or by `.problem`. In the latter a single dataset containing all aggregated tables is returned. If more than one `table` name or `.problem` number is provided a named list is returned.

Note when providing a table name it is not guaranteed that the table will be identical to its file (i.e. the order of the columns may have been changed and tables with `FIRSTONLY` will no longer be deduplicated).

    data <- get_data(xpdb, table = 'cotab001')
    data

### Access the run files

The `get_file()` function can be used to access the imported output files. Files can be accessed by `file` name, by `.problem`, `.subprob` and/or `.method`. If more than one `file` name, `.problem`, `.subprob`, or `.method` is provided a named list is returned.

    file <- get_file(xpdb, file = 'run001.ext')

### Access the parameter estimates

The `get_prm()` function can be used to access the parameter estimates. To get a nice parameter table printed to the console use the function `prm_table()` instead. The arguments `.problem`, `.subprob` and `.method` can be used to select the parameter estimates to output.

    # Raw output for editing
    prm <- get_prm(xpdb, digits = 4)

    Reporting transformed parameters:
    For the OMEGA and SIGMA matrices, values are reported as standard deviations for the diagonal elements and as correlations for the off-diagonal elements. The relative standard errors (RSE) for OMEGA and SIGMA are reported on the approximate standard deviation scale (SE/variance estimate)/2. Use `transform = FALSE` to report untransformed parameters.

### Access the run summary

The `get_summary()` function can be used to access the generated run summary from which the `template_titles`. If the argument `.problem` is specified a subset of the summary can be returned based on `$PROBLEM`.

Note that general summary information are listed as problem 0.

    run_sum <- get_summary(xpdb, .problem = 0)
