Oh Hi Arne, You may recall we visited with this before. I do not believe the problem is algorithm specific. The algorithms I use the most often are BFGS and BHHH (or maxBFGS and maxBHHH). For simple econometric models such as probit, Tobit, and evening sample selection models, old and new versions of R work equally well (I write my own programs and do not use ones from AER or sampleSekection).

Dear R Users, I'm currently working on simultaneous multinomial models and wonder whether R has any package that can estimate such models. I've got a survey dataset that contains 2,000 individuals and one of the survey questions asked the respondents to chose two main reasons to work out of eight options (e.g., pay, pepople, to use abilities, etc.) . Now I'd like to model the

Dear R users, I would like to perform Latent Class Logit Models for the analysis of choice experiments in environmental valuation. This kind of analysis is usually performed with NLogit Software (http://www.limdep.com). I attach the results I usually obtain using NLogit and NLogit model specifications. For Random parameter models and Logit Models I usually perform my analysis with the package

Hi Steven Which optimisation algorithms in maxLik work better under R-3.0.3 than under the current version of R? /Arne On Thu, 8 Oct 2020 at 21:05, Steven Yen <styen at ntu.edu.tw> wrote: > > Hmm. You raised an interesting point. Actually I am not having problems with aod per se?-it is just a supporting package I need while using old R. The essential package I need, maxLik, simply

Dear All, I would like to publish a function for 'heckit' estimations together with two examples from Greene's and Wooldridge's econometric textbooks. These examples use the dataset of Mroz (1987) that is also available in John Fox' "car" package. However, not all variables that are used in my examples are available in the "car" package. Therefore, I

Dear all, I have uploaded a new package called micEcon (version 0.1-3) to CRAN (an early version of this package has been already presented at useR! 2004). It contains tools for microeconomic analysis and microeconomic modeling. These are for instance: - tools for demand analysis with the 'Almost Ideal Demand System' (AIDS): e.g. econometric estimation, calculation of price and

Hi, I wrote a function to perform a two-step Heckman (also known as "heckit") estimation. This function is mainly a wrapper function to "glm" (1st step probit estimation) and "lm" (2nd step OLS estimation). Though this function is not perfect yet, it is IMHO already very useful. Since there were some questions about Heckmann estimation in this list, I would like

Hello, all. I'm investigating the rate at which skeletal joint surfaces pass through a series of ordered stages (changes in morphology). Current statistical methods in this type of research use various logit or probit regression techniques (e.g., proportional odds logit/probit, forward/backward continuation ratio, or restricted/unrestricted cumulative probit). Data typically include the

Hello. I have yet to receive a response to my previous post, so I may have done a poor job asking the question. So, here is the general question: how can I run a run a multivariate (more than one non-independent, response variables) ordered probit regression model? I've had success doing this in the univariate case using the vglm() function in the VGAM package. For example:

Dear R-community, I am currently replicating a study and obtain mostly the same results as the author. At one point, however, I calculate marginal effects that seem to be unrealistically small. I would greatly appreciate if you could have a look at my reasoning and the code below and see if I am mistaken at one point or another. My sample contains 24535 observations, the dependent variable

Hi, I want to have a "vignette" in one of my R packages. Hence, I added an Sweave file into the /inst/doc subdirectory of this package.

In December, the packages "miscTools" and "micEconAids" were separated from the "micEcon" package. Now, two further packages have been separated from the micEcon package: "micEconSNQP" and "micEconCES".

Hi, I am a stata user trying to transition to R. Typically I compute marginal effects plots for (example) probit models by drawing simulated betas by using the coefficient/standard error estimates after I run a probit model. I then use these simulated betas to compute first difference marginal effects. My question is, can I do this in R? Specifically, I was wondering if anyone knows how R

Dear R-Help, I'm hoping to find a Multinomial Nested Logit package in R. It would be great to find something analogous to "PROC MDC" in SAS: > The MDC (Multinomial Discrete Choice) procedure analyzes models > where the > choice set consists of multiple alternatives. This procedure > supports conditional logit, > mixed logit, heteroscedastic extreme value,

Hi Dirk! It would be great if you could upload a (Debian) package "r-cran-matrix" that includes the latest version of the R package "Matrix" to http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/intrepid/ "r-recommended" depends on "r-cran-matrix", but only the (outdated) version that shipped with intrepid (0.999375-10-1) is currently available. Note:

Might this be related to the Linux version? I'm testing on one of our university servers, and they tend to be deprived of regular updates sometimes... (Dirk, sorry for sending you this twice.) > Sys.info() sysname "Linux" release
