Consider the following plot that shows separate regression lines ~ age for each subject in the Pothoff-Roy Orthodont data, with separate panels by Sex: library(nlme) #plot(Orthodont) xyplot(distance ~ age|Sex, data=Orthodont, type='r', groups=Subject, col=gray(.50), main="Individual linear regressions ~ age") I'd like to also show in each panel the pooled OLS

I have two questions related to plotting predicted values for a linear mixed model using xyplot: 1: With a groups= argument, I can't seem to get the key to appear inside the xyplot. (I have the Lattice book, but don't find an example that actually does this.) 2: With lme(), how can I generate confidence bands or prediction intervals around the fitted values? Once I get them, I'd

I''ve written a JavaScript library called Ortho (http://www.craic.com/ ortho) on top of Prototype for creating ''diagram-style'' graphics in JavaScript. You can create histograms, graphs, timeline plots, ''maps'' of genomic data, annotated images, tree diagrams, etc. Unlike Canvas, it seamlessly integrates text with graphics and the output looks the same

Hello, I am running this script from Pinheiro & Bates book in R Version 2.1.1 (WinXP). But, I can't plot Figure 2.3. What's wrong? TIA.

Hi everybody! I'm sure that I overlook something and feel quite stupid to ask, but I have not found an easy solution to the following problem: Take e.g. the Orthodont data from the nlme package: > head(Orthodont) Grouped Data: distance ~ age | Subject distance age Subject Sex 1 26.0 8 M01 Male 2 25.0 10 M01 Male 3 29.0 12 M01 Male 4 31.0 14 M01 Male

Hi all I’m in desperate need of help. I’m working with a grouped data object, called Orthodont in the nlme package in R, and am trying to fit various models (learning methods for my thesis), but one of the variables in the object is numeric, (age) and I need it to be a factor. I’ve tried: as.factor(Orthodont$age) as.factor(as.character(Orthodont$age)) and various other things, but when I then

Dear R-help I'm working on a large dataset which I have divided into 20 subsets based on similar features. Each subset consists of observations from different locations and I wish to use the location as a random effect. For each group I want to select regressors by a stepwise procedure and include a random effect on the intercept. I use stepAIC() and lme(). (The lmer()-function doesn't

Dear R-users, I have to plot two xyplot, and I wish to enclose this two graphs with just one headline, the same x scale, the same grid etc. These parameters should tie in, in order to obtain, visually, a unique graph formed by two xyplot. I try to give an idea: xyplot1: |_|_|_| xyplot2: |_|_|_| what i want: | | | | |_|_|_| I tried to use the command

R-helpers: I would like to measure the correlation coefficient between the repeated measures of a single variable that is measured over time and is unbalanced. As an example, consider the Orthodont dataset from package nlme, where the model is: fit <- lmer(distance ~ age + (1 | Subject), data=Orthodont) I would like to measure the correlation b/t the variable "distance" at

I am using rw0641. In my continuing quest to understand repeated measures analysis, I again return to lme. I exported the Potthoff and Roy data Orthodont.dat from S-PLUS 4.5 to avoid capture errors and ran the examples in the R help. I imported the data.frame with data <- read.table("Orthodont.dat",header=T) attach(data) and created the objects Orthodont.fit1 <-

Hi, I'm having some problems regarding the packages lme4 and nlme, more specifically in the denominator degrees of freedom. I used data Orthodont for the two packages. The commands used are below. require(nlme) data(Orthodont) fm1<-lme(distance~age+ Sex, data=Orthodont,random=~1|Subject, method="REML") anova(fm1) numDF DenDF F-value p-value (Intercept) 1

Hi Folks, I'm trying to understand the model specification formalities for 'lme', and the documentation is leaving me a bit confused. Specifically, using the example dataset 'Orthodont' in the 'nlme' package, first I use the invocation given in the example shown by "?lme": > fm1 <- lme(distance ~ age, data = Orthodont) # random is ~ age Despite the

Hi, I'm new at this, I'm very confused, and I think I'm missing something important here. In our pet example we have this: > fm <- lme(Orthodont) > plot(Orthodont) > plot(augPred(fm, level = 0:1)) which gives us a trellis plot with the females above the males, starting with "F03", "F04", "F11", "F06", etc. I thought the point of

Hi all I tried to reproduce an example with lme and used the Orthodont dataset. library(nlme) fm2a.1 <- lme(distance ~ age + Sex, data = Orthodont, random = ~ 1 | Subject) anova(fm2a.1) > numDF denDF F-value p-value > (Intercept) 1 80 4123.156 <.0001 > age 1 80 114.838 <.0001 > Sex 1 25 9.292 0.0054 or alternatively

Full_Name: Renaud Lancelot Version: Version 2.3.0 (2006-04-24) OS: MS Windows XP Pro SP2 Submission from: (NULL) (82.239.219.108) I think there is a bug in predict.lme, when a polynomial generated by poly() is used as an explanatory variable, and a new data.frame is used for predictions. I guess this is related to * not * using, for predictions, the coefs used in constructing the orthogonal

Dear friends. I tried the session below with 10 MB in both vsize and nsize but didn't get the example work. Is this a problem in LME or in me or both or somewhere else or undefined ?

I want to compute confidence intervals for the random effect estimates for each subject. From checking on postings, this is what I cobbled together using Orthodont data.frame as an example. There was some discussion of how to properly access lmer slots and bVar, but I'm not sure I understood. Is the approach shown below correct? Rick B. # Orthodont is from nlme (can't have both nlme and

Dear all, predict.lme() throws an error when the fixed part consists of only an intercept and using newdata. See the reproducible example below. I've tracked the error down to asOneFormula() which returns in this case NULL instead of a formula. Changing NULL instead of ~1 in that function (see below) solves the problem in the case of an intercept only model (m1). It does not solve the problem
