Looking to maximize a conditional likelihood
...del (in the survival package of 1.7) will do what I want. Here's a little more detail on the function, though this is still quite terse. Pseudo Tex notation: We have cases in clusters. y_ij is the outcome (0 or 1) for the j'th case in the i'th cluster It has vector covariates X_ij. c_ij is a transform of y_ij and is in (0, 1) (it's actually the probability of being in cluster j). It may be specified a priori or to be estimated. Maximize the product over i of c_ij exp(sum_j y_ij X_ij b) ---------------------------- sum_K c_ij exp(sum_K y_ij X_ij b) Where sum_K means we are...

Markov transition matrices , missing transitions for certain years
Hi all, I am working for nest box occupancy data for birds and would like to construct a Markov transition matrix, to derive transition probabilities for ALL years of the study (not separate sets of transition probabilities for each time step). The actual dataset I'm working with is 125 boxes over 14 years that can be occupied by 7 different species, though I have provided a slimmed down

NumDeriv - derivatives of covariance matrix
Hello R-help, I need to compute matrices of first derivatives of a covariance matrix C with entries given by c_ij=theta*exp(-0.5* sum(eta*(x[i,]-x[j,])^2)), wrt to elements of eta, a m-dimensional vector of parameters, given a n*m data matrix x. So far, I have been computing matrices for each parameter (given by par[index]) analytically, using the following kmatder<- function(x, par, index) { ## x: n*m...
