Dear friends of nlme, Running quinModel (Pinheiro/Bates page 380) on R (current release, windows) gives: Nonlinear mixed-effects model fit by maximum likelihood Model: conc ~ quinModel(Subject, time, conc, dose, interval, lV, lKa, lCl) Data: Quinidine Log-likelihood: -497 Fixed: lV + lKa + lCl ~ 1 lV lKa lCl 5.382 -0.273 2.470 Random effects: Formula: list(lV ~ 1, lCl ~ 1) Level: Subject Structure: Diagonal lV lCl Residual StdDev: 4.43e-12 0.321 0.76 lV is confusing, since the book examples says it should be 0.31173. Other question: is the source of nlme_one_comp_open (or similar) available? I would like to learn how to do these models in c, but could not find the code. (To avoid RTFM: I know about r-ext.pdf, but a special modelxXX example would make life easier).

The value from S is more sensible. Trying to prevent the optimization algorithm in R from taking unreasonably large steps inside nlme is one of the things we will work on.> Other question: is the source of nlme_one_comp_open (or similar) available? > I would like to learn how to do these models in c, but could not find the > code.

That routine is defined in nlme/src/nlme.c -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)
