I'm trying to write some functions extending influence measures to multivariate linear models and also allow subsets of size m>=1 to be considered for deletion diagnostics. I'd like these to work roughly parallel to those functions for the univariate lm where only single case deletion (m=1) diagnostics are considered. Corresponding to stats::hatvalues.lm, the S3 method for class

I would like to do a SS type III analysis on a proportional odds logistic regression model. I use drop1(), but dropterm() shows the same behaviour. It works as expected for regular main effects models, however when the model includes an interaction effect it seems to have problems with matching the parameters to the predictor terms. An example: library("MASS"); options(contrasts =

Hi, I found that using different contrasts (e.g. contr.helmert vs. contr.treatment) will generate different fitted probabilities from multinomial logistic regression using multinom(); while the fitted probabilities from binary logistic regression seem to be the same. Why is that? and for multinomial logisitc regression, what contrast should be used? I guess it's helmert? here is an example

Is there any reason that rstandard.glm doesn't have a "pearson" option? And if not, can it be added? Background: I'm currently teaching an undergrad/grad-service course from Agresti's "Introduction to Categorical Data Analysis (2nd edn)" and deviance residuals are not used in the text. For now I'll just provide the students with a simple function to use, but I

Hi, I have been struggling with this problem for some time now. Internet, books haven't been able to help me. ## I have factorial design with counts (fruits) as response variable. > str(stubb) 'data.frame': 334 obs. of 5 variables: $ id : int 6 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 31 34 ... $ infl.treat : Factor w/ 2 levels "0","1": 2 2 2 2 1 1 1 2 1 1 ... $ def.treat :

Hi! I'm trying to do a lm() test on three objects. My problem is that R protests and says that the variable lengths differ for one of the objects (Sweden.GDP.gap). But I have double checked that the number of observations are the same. All three objects should contain 9 observations but R only accepts 9 observations in two of the objects. The third must have 10! Very confusing because there

In Venables \& Ripley 3rd edition (p. 231) the proportional odds model is described as: logit(p<=k) = zeta_k + eta but polr apparently thinks there is a minus in front of eta, as is apprent below. Is this a bug og a feature I have overlooked? Here is the naked code for reproduction, below the results. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --- version

Hi, I have the following code from Splus that I'd like to migrate to R. So far, the only problem is the arima.filt function. This function allows me to filter an existing time-series through a previously estimated arima model, and obtain the residuals for further use. Here's the Splus code: # x is the estimation time series, new.infl is a timeseries that contains new information # a.mle

Hi, I am trying to test the proportional-odds model using the "polr" function in the MASS library with the dataset of "housing" contained in the MASS book ("Sat" (factor: low, medium, high) is the dependent variable, "Infl" (low, medium, high), "Type" (tower, apartment, atrium, terrace) and "Cont" (low, high) are the predictor variables

Hi, I want to calculate the t- and p-values for a linear model using the Newey West estimator. I tried this Code and it usually worked just fine: > oberlm <- lm(DYH ~ BIP + Infl + EOil, data=HU_H) > coeftest(oberlm, NeweyWest(oberlm, lag=2)) t test of coefficients: Estimate Std. Error t value Pr(>|t|) (Intercept) 0.1509950 0.0743832 2.0300 0.179486 BIP

Full_Name: Heather Turner Version: 2.2.0 OS: Windows XP Submission from: (NULL) (137.205.240.44) Standardized residuals as calculated by rstandard.lm, rstandard.glm and plot.lm are Inf/NaN rather than zero when the un-standardized residuals are zero. This causes plot.lm to break when calculating 'ylim' for any of the plots of standardized residuals. Example:

Hi, I've looked around but can't find a clear answer to the difference for these two? Any help? Thanks! -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/dfbetas-vs-dfbeta-tp26331704p26331704.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

I contacted John Fox about this first, because parts of the file are attributed to him. He says that he didn't write rstandard.glm(), and suggests asking r-devel. As it stands, rstandard.glm() has summary(model)$dispersion outside the sqrt(), while in rstandard.lm(), the sd is already sqrt()ed. This seems to follow stdres() in VR/MASS/R/stdres.R. Of course for the c("poisson",

Dear All, I have been struggling to understand why for the housing data in MASS library R and stata give coef. estimates that are really different. I also tried to come up with many many examples myself (see below, of course I did not have the set.seed command included) and all of my `random' examples seem to give verry similar output. For the housing data, I have changed the data into numeric

Thanks to some comments from Brian D. Ripley, I found my error: I should not have given a data argument to lm() after creating a formula-object. This obviously confused things... Thanks again, I've really learnt again a bit more on R-programming... Cheers, Winfried --------------------------------------------------------------------- E-Mail: Winfried Theis <theis at

Hi, I want to do a global likelihood ratio test for the proportional odds logistic regression model and am unsure how to go about it. I am using the polr() function in library(MASS). 1. Is the p-value from the likelihood ratio test obtained by anova(fit1,fit2), where fit1 is the polr model with only the intercept and fit2 is the full polr model (refer to example below)? So in the case of the

Hi there, I have the problem, that I'm not able to reproduce the SPSS residual statistics (dfbeta and cook's distance) with a simple binary logistic regression model obtained in R via the glm-function. I tried the following: fit <- glm(y ~ x1 + x2 + x3, data, family=binomial) cooks.distance(fit) dfbetas(fit) When i compare the returned values with the values that I get in SPSS,

Hi all, The nobs method of (MASS:::polr class) takes into account of weight, but nobs method of glm does not. I wonder what is the rationale of such design behind nobs.glm. Thanks in advance. Best Regards. > library(MASS) > house.plr <- polr(Sat ~ Infl + Type + Cont, weights = Freq, data = housing) > house.logit <- glm(I(Sat=='High') ~ Infl + Type + Cont, binomial,weights

Dear R-Helpers, I suspect I'm about to ask a FAQ, but I haven't been able to find an answer in the FAQ, AItR or an R Site Search. When I look at the methods of summary (below) it says, "Non-visible functions are asterisked". I looked at the help file for summary.princomp, which did not comment on it being non-visible. I ran its help file example, which printed visible output. I

[Environment: Win XP, R 2.10.1] I'm trying to install the packages JGR and iWidgets required by the extracat package to make the interactive plots in the package work.

Does anyone have any suggestions how to make this work? > > library(extracat) Loading
