R help - Jan 2011 - Adjusting MaxNwts in MICE Package

Hi,

I'm trying to impute a large data set using mice but I keep getting this:
Error in nnet.default(X, Y, w, mask = mask, size = 0, skip = TRUE, softmax TRUE,
:
  too many (2944) weights

nnet.default uses the argument MaxNWts to set a maximum number of weights.
I've tried to change nnet.default to get around this, but mice is somehow
still passing an argument that sets the maximum number of weights to be less
than what I need.

Does anyone know how to change the parameters that mice is passing to
nnet/nnet.default?

Thanks,
Rachel

Hi Rachel,

I am having the same problem! My data set is positing around 4400 weights
required.

Have you found a solution to this? Does anyone else know how to adjust this
default to run MICE successfully?

Thanks,
Justin
