avoiding termination of nls given convergence failure
...r regression to a series of data sets using nls and the port algorithm from within a loop. The general structure of the loop is: for(i in 1:n){ … extract relevant vectors of dependent and independent variables … … estimate starting values for Amax and Q.LCP… fit<-nls(photosynthesis~fit.Mitcherlich(irradiance,Amax,LCP,Q.LCP),data=temp , start=list(Amax=Astart,Q.LCP=x,LCP=33),control=list(maxiter=100,tol=5e-4), na.action=na.omit,trace=T,algorithm="port",lower=c(0,0,0)) … } Despite trying to estimate good starting values, the nls function occasionally experiences...
