absurd computiation times of lme
...ss children doesn't change much, and I can't use less knots. Although I don't expect reasonable results from that, but even with only three children (as below) the computation wouldn't stop soon. Data looks like below, B1..B5 are the basis matrix for the spline basis, and I use kidGroup <- groupedData(height ~ B1+B2+B3+B4+B5 -1 | Id, data=kids) fm <- lme(kidGroup) Using a model like kidGroup <- groupedData(height ~ sqrt(age) | Id, data=kids) works very fast, but the model is not appropriate and the fitting is bad. What is the reason for this exponential-lookking incr...
