Hi I'm computing a bca interval using bca.ci from the boot package. When I try to use this I get an error > library(boot) > boot(logglm.data,boot.fishpower,2500,coef.vec=coeflm.vec)->blm8901 > bca.ci(blm8901,index=29) Error: cannot allocate vector of size 456729 Kb However my machine has 2GB of memory and without R running I only have 112M of memory used. Is there something

Dear All, I am trying to use the bca.ci function on a boot.out object which consists a few NaN's and I want to ignore those NaN's, and get a ci only for the "normal" values. boot.out$t has R number of values for 3000 different statistics, so when I use boot.ci(boot.out, index=i) and i happens to be a column in boot.out$t with some NaN's in there I get an error message. I

I like to bootstrap regression models, saving the entire set of bootstrapped regression coefficients for later use so that I can get confidence limits for a whole set of contrasts derived from the coefficients. I'm finding that ordinary bootstrap percentile confidence limits can provide poor coverage for odds ratios for binary logistic models with small N. So I'm exploring BCa confidence

Hello everyone ! I am currently trying to convert a program from S-plus to R, and I am having some trouble with the S-plus function called "influence(data, statistic,...)". This function aims to "calculate empirical influence values and related quantities", and is part of the Resample library that I cannot find for R. However, 2 similar functions are available in R: - the

Hello, I have a question regarding bootstrap confidence intervals. Suppose we have a data set consisting of single measurements, and that the measurements are independent but the distribution is unknown. If we want a confidence interval for the population mean, when should a bootstrap confidence interval be preferred over the elementary t interval? I was hoping the answer would be

I'm confused about name spaces. This morning I installed the boot package because I wanted to look at bca.ci. So I did library(boot), but then I had, > bca.ci Error: Object "bca.ci" not found I had a look in the boot R directory and bca.ci was there as expected. So then I took a look at the NAMESPACE file for the boot package and saw that bca.ci wasn't exported. I tried

Good Morning, I'm having what I hope to be a simple problem. I am generating bootstrap confidence intervals using package (boot) - which works perfectly. The issue I am having is getting the results into a format which I can write out to a database. To be clear I am having no problems generating the results, I just need to convert the format of the results such that I can store the results in

Sometimes one might like to obtain pointwise bootstrap bias-corrected, accelerated (BCA) confidence intervals for a large number of statistics computed from a single dataset. For instance, one might like to get (so as to plot graphically) bootstrap confidence bands for the fitted values in a regression model. (Example: Chiu S et al., Early Acceleration of Head Circumference in Children with

Dear List, Couple of issues while using functions from ?BCA? library: 1. I am trying to use ?lift.chart? function from ?BCA? library, but facing issues while using model where model formula is passed as formula object in glm. When model formula is written as text, then it works fine. In my case input variables and target variables are going to change dynamically, so have to used formula as

Dear List I have run into some problems with boot.ci from package boot. When I try to obtain a confidence interval of type bca, boot.ci() returns the following error when the data set i large: Error in bca.ci(boot.out, conf, index[1L], L = L, t = t.o, t0 = t0.o, : estimated adjustment 'a' is NA Below is an example that produces the above mentioned error on my machine. library(boot)

Hi Jeff and others, When building the llvm runtime, I always get this error message: 'Can't destroy file: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.' The file is destoyed anyway. I think that the the real error is the path for the file (*/\file.tmp). However, I can't find the bug in the source. Do you have any clue?:

Hello, I'm not much of a programmer, and am trying to understand the workings of the function below called "RStatFctn" within this bootstrap procedure. RStatFctn is defined to have two arguments: "x", intended to be a data vector; and "d" intended to be an index (or so it looks to me). Later, "rnormdat" is created to be the data vector. However,

I tried to reproduce a result from a former colleague which he got with S-plus bootstrap method. I don't have S-plus at hand. In R, there are 2 packages related to bootstrap method, bootstrap and boot. The former has a function called 'bootstrap' but this does not seem to conform either to the function used in S-plus nor to that described in MASS, 3d ed., p.144. The latter seems to be

Dear R users, I am new to R. I would like to calculate bootstrap confidence intervals using the BCa method for a parameter of interest. My situation is this: I already have a set of 1000 bootstrap replicates created from my original data set. I have already calculated the statistic of interest for each bootstrap replicate, and have also calculated the mean for this statistic across all the

Hi all: I get the following error message that I am not able to resolve.
