Hello, I am wondering if someone can help me. I have the following function that I derived using nls() SSlogis. I would like to find its derivative. I thought I had done this using deriv(), but for some reason this isn't working out for me. Here is the function: asym <- 84.951 xmid <- 66.90742 scal <- -6.3 x.seq <- seq(1, 153,, 153) nls.fn <- asym/((1+exp((xmid-x.seq)/scal)))

I have a question regarding robust nonlinear regression with nlrob. I would like to place lower bounds on the parameters, but when I call nlrob with limits it returns the following error: "Error in psi(resid/Scale, ...) : unused argument(s) (lower = list(Asym = 1, mid = 1, scal = 1))" After consulting the documentation I noticed that upper and lower are not listed as parameter in

deriv seems to have problems with a minus-sign before a bracket. Below are four examples of the same function, the top one is wrong, all others are correct (hopefully). Rest of expression not shown, it is the same for all versions. _ platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch x86 os Win32 system x86, Win32 status major 1 minor 3.0 year 2001 month 06 day 22 language R

Dear R-Users, I am comparing the nlme package in S-Plus (v. 7.0) and R (v. 2.2.1, nlme package version 3.1-68.1; the lattice, Matrix, and lme4 have also just been updated today, Jan. 23, 2006) on a PC (2.40 GHz Pentium 4 processor and 1 GHz RAM) operating on Windows XP. I am using a real data set with 1,191 units with at most 4 repeated measures per unit (data are incomplete, unbalanced). I

Hi R help, I am trying to determine how nls() generates a function based on the self-starting SSlogis and what the formula for the function would be. I've scoured the help site, and other literature to try and figure this out but I still am unsure if I am correct in what I am coming up with. ************************************************************************** dat <-

Hi folks, I am tearing my hair out on this one. I am using an example from Pinheiro and Bates. ### this works data(Orange) mod.lis <- nlsList(circumference ~ SSlogis(age, Asymp, xmid, scal), data=Orange ) ### This works mod <- nlme(circumference ~ SSlogis(age, Asymp, xmid, scal), data=Orange, fixed = Asymp + xmid + scal ~ 1, start =

Dear sirs It seems like there is a bug in `profile.nls` with `algorithm = "plinear"` when a matrix is supplied on the right hand side. Here is the bug and a potential fix ##### # example where profile.nls does not work with `plinear` but does with # `default` require(graphics) set.seed(1) DNase1 <- subset(DNase, Run == 1) x <- rnorm(nrow(DNase1)) f1 <- nls(density ~ b1/(1 +

Hi, I would like to be able to access the calculated results from the nls package. Using the example in R, fm3DNase1 we can reurn certain parts of the calculations: > coef(fm3DNase1) Asym xmid scal 2.345179 1.483089 1.041454 > resid(fm3DNase1) [1] -0.0136806237 -0.0126806237 0.0089488569 0.0119488569 -0.0025803222 [6] 0.0064196778 0.0026723396 -0.0003276604

Dear all Please help me with correct syntax of predict.nlme. I would like to predict from nlme object for new data. I used predict(fit.nlme6, data=newdata) but I have always got fitted values, no matter how I changed newdata. I have > summary(fit.nlme6) Nonlinear mixed-effects model fit by maximum likelihood Model: konverze ~ SSfpl(tepl, A, B, xmid, scal) Data: limity.gr AIC

Dear all, I am trying to fit a non linear regression model to time series data. If I do this: reg.logis = nls(myVar~SSlogis(myTime,Asym,xmid,scal)) I get this error message (translated to English from French): Erreur in nls(y ~ 1/(1 + exp((xmid - x)/scal)), data = xy, start = list(xmid = aux[1], : le pas 0.000488281 became inferior to 'minFactor' of 0.000976562 I then tried to set

Could someone explain the meaming of this error message from augPred: > augPred(area3.pen.nlme, primary=~day) Error in predict.nlme(object, value[1:(nrow(value)/nL), , drop = FALSE], : Levels 1,2,3 not allowed for block > predict.nlme(area3.pen.nlme) does not produce an error. area3.pen.nlme was created with: > area3.pen.nlme <- nlme(area ~ SSlogis(day, Asym, xmid, scal),

Hello, nls library provides 6 self-starting models, among them: SSfp, a four parameters logistic function. Its self-starting procedure involves several steps. One of these steps is: pars <- as.vector(coef(nls(y ~ cbind(1, 1/(1 + exp((xmid - x)/exp(lscal)))), data = xydata, start = list(lscal = 0), algorithm = "plinear"))) which assumes an initial value of lscal equal to 0. If lscal

Hello, I am trying to fit a nlme (non linear mixed effect). I am using the SelfStart function SSlogis. However the data in my hand contains few observations per subject (4 or less), so the nlsList doesn't work... In this case I should fixe initial parameter estimates. I remark that values of initial estimates have a greater effect on the model fit (i.e. loglikelihood, AIC and also on

Hi I want to change a control parameter for an nls () as I am getting an error message "step factor 0.000488281 reduced below 'minFactor' of 0.000976562". Despite all tries, it seems that the control parameter of the nls, does not seem to get handed down to the function itself, or the error message is using a different one. Below system info and an example highlighting the

Hello, How do I specify the formula and random effects without a startup object ? I thought it would be a mixture of nls and lme. after trying very hard, I ask for help on using nlme. Can someone hint me to some examples? I constructed a try using the example from nls: #variables are density, conc and Run #all works fine with nls DNase1 <- subset(DNase, Run == 1 ) fm2DNase1 <- nls(

How to set the nlme() function to return the answer without the intercept parametrization? #========================================================================================= library(nlme) Soybean[1:3, ] (fm1Soy.lis <- nlsList(weight ~ SSlogis(Time, Asym, xmid, scal),                        data = Soybean)) (fm1Soy.nlme <- nlme(fm1Soy.lis)) fm2Soy.nlme <- update(fm1Soy.nlme,

This is only partly a question about R, as I am not quite sure about the underlying statistical theory either. I have fitted a non-linear mixed-effects model with nlme. In the fixed part of the model I have a factor with three levels as explanatory variable. I would like to use Tukey HSD or a similar test to test for differences between these three levels. I have two grouping factors:

Hi, A. In a nutshell: The training error, obtained as "error (ret)", from the return value of a ksvm () call for a eps-svr model is (likely) being computed wrongly. "nu-svr" and "eps-bsvr" suffer from this as well. I am attaching three files: (1) ksvm.R from the the kernlab package, un-edited, (2) ksvm_eps-svr.txt: (for easier reading) containing only eps-svr
