Hi! When checking validity of a model for a large number of experimental data I thought it to be interesting to check the information provided by the summary method programmatically. Still I could not find out which method to use to get to those data. Example (not my real world data, but to show the point): [BEGIN] > DNase1 <- subset(DNase, Run == 1) > fm1DNase1 <- nls(density ~

Hello: I am new on R, this is the first time I work with it, I am trying to run some R example to get learn of them, but, I have a problem when running the example below: http://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-patched/library/datasets/html/zCO2.html CO2.Qn1 <- CO2[CO2$Plant == "Qn1", ] SSasympOff(CO2.Qn1$conc, 32, -4, 43) # response only Asym <- 32; lrc <- -4; c0 <- 43

I'm wondering whether AIC scores extracted from nls() objects using AIC() are based on the correct number of estimated parameters. Using the example under nls() documentation: > data( DNase ) > DNase1 <- DNase[ DNase$Run == 1, ] > ## using a selfStart model > fm1DNase1 <- nls( density ~ SSlogis( log(conc), Asym, xmid, scal ), DNase1 ) Using AIC() function: >

Dear all, I am studying a bit the various support functions that exist for extracting information from fitted model objects. From the help files it is not completely clear to me whether the number returned by nobs() should be the same as the "nobs" attribute of the object returned by logLik(). If so, then there is a slight inconsistency in the methods for 'nls' objects with

Dear all, I encounter some discrepancies when comparing the deviance of a weighted and unweigthed model with the AIC values. A general example (from 'nls'): DNase1 <- subset(DNase, Run == 1) fm1DNase1 <- nls(density ~ SSlogis(log(conc), Asym, xmid, scal), DNase1) This is the unweighted fit, in the code of 'nls' one can see that 'nls' generates a vector

Dear All, I encounter some discrepancies when comparing the deviance of a weighted and unweigthed model with the AIC values. A general example (from 'nls'): DNase1 <- subset(DNase, Run == 1) fm1DNase1 <- nls(density ~ SSlogis(log(conc), Asym, xmid, scal), DNase1) Now for a weighted fit: fm2DNase1 <- nls(density ~ SSlogis(log(conc), Asym, xmid, scal),

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(

Thanks Adaikalavan, however the problem remains. Considering AIC() as applied to the linear model in AIC() help documentation: > data(swiss) > lm1 <- lm(Fertility ~ . , data = swiss) > AIC(lm1) [1] 326.0716 Clearly this includes the estimation of the residual standard error as an estimated parameter, as this gives the correct score: > -2*logLik(lm1) + 2*(length(coef(lm1))+1)

I'm trying to fit a Gompertz sigmoid as follows: x <- c(15, 16, 17, 18, 19) # arbitrary example data here; y <- c(0.1, 1.8, 2.2, 2.6, 2.9) # actual data is similar gm <- nls(y ~ a+b*exp(-exp(-c*(x-d))), start=c(a=?, b=?, c=?, d=?)) I have been unable to properly set the starting value '?'s. All of my guesses yield either a "singular gradient" error if they

Dear all i want to fit the self start model in nls. i have two question. i have a function, (asfr ~ I(((a*b)/c))+ ((c/age)^3/2)+ exp((-b^2)*(c/age)+(age/c)-2) i am wondering how to build the selfstart model. there is lost of example, (i.e. SSgompertz, SSmicman, SSweibull, etc). my question is, how to derive the function of parameters. and also which model to use for get the initials values. In the

I am trying to fit a curve to a cumulative mortality curve (logistic) where y is the cumulative proportion of mortalities, and t is the time in hours (see below). Asym. at 0 and 1 > y [1] 0.00000000 0.04853859 0.08303777 0.15201970 0.40995074 0.46444992 0.62862069 0.95885057 1.00000000 [10] 1.00000000 1.00000000 > t [1] 0 13 20 24 37 42 48 61 72 86 90 I tried to find starting values for

Hola amigos, Supongamos que se quiere ejecutar un modelo no lineal con nls. Pensemos en el ejemplo de la ayuda: DNase1 <- subset(DNase, Run == 1) fm1DNase1 <- nls(density ~ SSlogis(log(conc), Asym, xmid, scal), DNase1) summary(fm1DNase1) Aquí se está modelando la densidad óptica de un ensayo relacionada de forma no lineal (logística) con (el logaritmo) de la concentración de una proteína.

I am having trouble fitting correlation structures within nlme. I would like to fit corCAR1, corGaus and corExp correlation structures to my data. I either get the error "step halving reduced below minimum in pnls step" or alternatively R crashes. My dataset is similar to the CO2 example in the nlme package. The one major difference is that in my case the 'conc' steps are

Hi folks, Win7 64bit I tried to save DNase, a data set on database, as .txt file for future use with load. I can't do it on fly; > save(DNase, file="C:/Users/satimis/Documents/aaa.txt") > load(file="C:/Users/satimis/Documents/aaa.txt") > aaa Error: object 'aaa' not found > aaa.txt Error: object 'aaa.txt' not found I must perform following

Hi, I am using the nls function and it stops because the number of iterations exceeded 50, but i used the nls.control argument to allow for 500 iterations. Do you have any idea why it's not working? fm1 <- nls(npe ~ SSgompertz(npo, Asym, b2, b3), data=f,control=nls.control(maxiter=500)) Error in nls(y ~ exp(-b2 * b3^x), data = xy, algorithm = "plinear", start = c(b2 =

Dear forum members, What is the formula to calculate denominator degrees of freedom (den df) for nonlinear mixed-effect models with covariates? My model is similar to a CO2 uptake example from Pinheiro and Bates (2000, page 376). In this CO2 dataset, there are two treatments and two types (84 observations in total), but den df for each parameter of the model is 64. Isn’t it too high? Your

I am trying to fit a logistic model to my 10 year data (1999-2008) by year. Codes like below: Year <- c(1999: 2008) for(y in 1:length(year)) { file.input <- paste("C:\\", year[y], "\\data.csv", sep="") table <- read.csv(file=fileinput, header=TRUE, as.is=TRUE, na.strings=c("")) initial <- getInitial(percent ~ SSlogis(age, Asym,

Hi, I am using the nls function and it stops because the number of iterations exceeded 50, but i used the nls.control argument to allow for 500 iterations. Do you have any idea why it's not working? fm1 <- nls(npe ~ SSgompertz(npo, Asym, b2, b3), data=f,control=nls.control(maxiter=500)) Thanks for your help, Cheers, Karine.

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
