Given a set of coordinates that form an irregular sampling area, is there an R function to determine boundary points (coordinates defining the limits of the area), either with or without user interaction ? # for example, given the following irregular sampling area, how could I define the boundary polygon? library(SemiPar) data(scallop) plot(scallop$longitude, scallop$latitude) Thanks. --Dale

This is my first time running GAMs in R. My csv file has these column headings: "X" "Y" "Sound" "Atlantic" "Blacktip" "Bonnet" "Bull" "Finetooth" "Lemon" "Scalloped" "Sandbar" "Spinner" "Abundance" "Diversity" "Depth" "Distance" "Width" "System" "Channel" "Profile" "Bathy" "Slope" "Salinity" X is lon...

Hi, When you use the default knot choice in spm() (library(SemiPar)) a figure showing the knot locations is sent to the screen and you have to accept the knots to move on. I am trying to run simulations using this function. Is there a way to get spm() to use the default "REML" knots without needing to approve each set of knots? Here is an example: library(SemiPar) data(scallop)

Dear All, I am fitting scallop count data to negative binomial GAMs. I have two significant parameters that explain 43%of the deviance. The adjusted r square is 0.25. The gam.check function gives me the figure attached. In the graph of linear predictor vs. residuals there seems to be more negative residual values than positive. Is that telling me that the fit is underestimating the response? Can

I'm written a function that uses nls in a loop to fit a model to resampled data. Occasionally a sample is drawn such that the algorithm (apparently) can't converge and step factor reduced below minimum is printed to the screen. I tried a few different settings for the minFactor parameter in nls.control with no different result. When this happens, I would like my function to put NAs
