similar to: Logistic Regression for Multinomial Data using R

Hi, how can I do multinomial logistic regression in R? I think glm() can only handle binary response variable, and polr() can only handle ordinal response variable. how to do logistic regression with multinomial response variable? Thanks __________________________________

Hi It would be a great help if someone can direct me to access some existing R codes for fitting Logistic regression models for Multivariate data. I want to find some Robust Estimates (M) for these models. Thanks a lot Best Regards Nimal [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Is it possible to use function "glm" in case when my outcome variable has 5 different classes? I have seen examples only when using binomial outcome variable. What about using function "multinom"? How do I to get the signifigance and the confidence levels of the coefficients and the value of goodness of the model with this function? Thank You for Your help! -- View this

I want to get the logLik to calculate McFadden.R2 ,ML.R2 and Cragg.Uhler.R2, but the value from multinom does not have logLik.So my quetion is : is logLik meaningful to multinomial logistic model from multinom?If it does, how can I get it? Thank you! ps: I konw VGAM has function to get the multinomial logistic model with logLik, but I prefer use the function from "official" R

I tried to use the effect() to get predicted marginals for multinomial logistic as I did for general logistic regression, but failed. Is there anyway to do that?

Hi, I would like to apply the L-BFGS optimization algorithm to compute the MLE of a multilevel multinomial Logistic Regression. The likelihood formula for this model has as one of the summands the formula for computing the likelihood of an ordinary (single-level) multinomial logit regression. So I would basically need the R implementation for this formula. The L-BFGS algorithm also requires

I have two questions: 1. If I want to do a binomial logit, how to handle the categorical response variable? Data for the response variables are not numerical, but text. 2. What if I want to do a multinomial logit, still with categorical response variable? The variable has 5 non-numerical response levels, I have to do it with a multinomial logit. Any input is highly appreciated! Thanks! Ed

Sir, I want to fit a multinomial logistic regression in R.I think mlogit() is the function for doing this. mlogit () is in packege globaltest.But, I can not install this package. I use the following: install.packages("globaltest") Can you help me? Regards, Suman Dhara [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I am attempted to examine the temporal independence of my data set and think I need an unordered multinomial logistic regression (or logit model) with repeated measures to do so. The data in question is location of chickens. Chickens could be in any one of 5 locations when a snapshot sample was taken. The locations of chickens (bird) in 8 pens (pen) were scored twice a day (AMPM) for 20 days

Dear All I am trying to fit a multinomial logistic regression to a data set with a size of 94279 by 14 entries. The data frame has one "sample" column which is the categorical variable, and the number of different categories is 9. The size of the data set (as a csv file) is less than 10 MB. I tried to fit a multinomial logistic regression, either using vglm() from the VGAM package or

I am looking into using the multinomial logistic regression option in the nnet library and have two questions about formatting the data. 1. Can data be analysed in the following format or does it need to be transformed into count data, such as the housing data in MASS?

I'm interested in doing multinomial logistic regression with equality constraints on some of the parameter values. For example, with categorical outcomes Y_1 (baseline), Y_2, and Y_3, and covariates X_1 and X_2, I might want to impose the equality constraint that \beta_{2,1} = \beta_{3,2} that is, that the effect of X_1 on the logit of Y_2 is the same as the effect of X_2 on the

Dear all, I am new to R and would like to run a multinomial logistic regression on my dataset (3 predictors for 1 dependent variables) I have used the vglm function from the VGAM package and got some results. Using the predict() function, I obtained the probability table I was looking for. However, I would like to fully understand how the predict() function generates the probabilities or in

Hello All, I'm trying to run a multinomial probit on a dataset with 28 data points and five levels (0,1,2,3,4) in the latent choice involving response variable. I downloaded the latest mnp package to run the regression. It starts the calculation and then crashes the rpogram. I wish I could give the error message but it literally shuts down R without a warning. I'm using the R

Dear all, I have found some difference of the results between multinom() function in R and multinomial logistic regression in SPSS software. The input data, model and parameters are below: choles <- c(94, 158, 133, 164, 162, 182, 140, 157, 146, 182); sbp <- c(105, 121, 128, 149, 132, 103, 97, 128, 114, 129); case <- c(1, 3, 3, 2, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 2); result <- multinom(case ~ choles

Dear all, I'm interested in extracting the score from multinomial logistic regression models fit using multinom, to assess the stregth of assocation of the parameter with the response (akin to the score from clogit/cox regression). currently I'm using R 1.8.1. Is there a function that will extract the score from a multinom object or how i can get back to it? or from using glm? I

Hello and thanks in advance for any help, I am using the 'multinom' function from the nnet package to calculate a multinomial logistic regression. I would like to get a matrix estimates of the estimated coefficient variances and covariances. Am I missing some easy way to extract these? Grant [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R-list members, I´m using the package "survey" and I need to find a function for multinomial logistic regression in a complex design. The functions that I see are only for dicotomic and ordinal variables. Thank you!

Dear Colleagues I have been fitting some multinomial logistic regression models using R (version 1.6.1 on a linux box) and Stata 7. Although the vast majority of the parameter estimates and standard errors I get from R are the same as those from Stata (given rounding errors and so on), there are a few estimates for the same model which are quite different. I would be most grateful if

The author of the package provides plenty of examples (and two good vignettes) showing you how to do this. Suggest you do some work in that area. Look especially at how model formulas are
