Changing the size of the bounding box
Greetings all: I have to create a graph that has very specific dimensions for publication purposes. The graph is a semilog scaled graph and the axes must range from 1 to 1,000,000 on the y axis and 0 to 100 on the x axis. The x axis should be exactly 8 inches and the y axis should be exactly 5.25 inches. I've been able to set the plot area to 8 x 5.25 using the par(pin=c(8,5.25)). The problem that I'm runnin...

nlminb( ) : one compartment open PK model
...unction in this case was squared error, and I made no assumptions about the distribution of the plasma values. The model appeared to fit pretty well. Out of curiosity, I decided to try to use nlminb( ) applied to a likelihood function that assumes the plasma values are normally distributed on the semilog scale (ie, modeling log(conc) over time). nlminb( ) keeps telling me that it has converged, but the estimated parameters are always identical to the initial values.... I am certain that I have committed "ein dummheit" somewhere in the following code, but not sure what... Any help woul...
