similar to: how to display delta AIC of all models

Dear List, I want to ask a AIC question based on package library(MuMIn) The relative importance of 16 explanatory variables are assessed using delta AIC in a generalized linear model. Please kindly advise if it is possible to show models with any two only certain variables. Thank you. Elaine I asked a similar question and got a great help for models with only one variable as below.

Hello, I am using package MuMIn to calculate AIC for a full model with 10 explanatory variables. Thanks in advance in sharing your experience. Q1 In the AIC list of all models, each model is differentiated by model number. Please kindly advise if it is possible to find the corresponding explanatory variable(s) for the model number. Q2 error message I tried to display sub-model with only

Dear List, Some independent variable were missing in calculation using lm and glm (gaussian). (X= Y1+Y2+…..+Y16, Independent number: 16 variable) However, those variables did work well in cor(X, Y) respectively. str(dataframe) was also run to ensure that the variables were all numbers. Moreover, the missing variables were different in lm and glm. In lm, 3 factors were not taken into

hello all, I have a simple linear model with 4/5 variables that I am trying to fit. I would like to find the lowest AIC value with any combination of all the variables. I would like to implement this with a while/for loop. Possibly I would like to generalize this so then I can use it when I have many more variables. I do not want to use step AIC. At the moment I am doing it manually but I

Hello, This is Elaine. I am using R 3.0 to download package vegan but failed. The warning message is package ‘vegan’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked Warning: unable to move temporary installation ‘C:\Users\elaine\Documents\R\win-library\3.0\file16c82da53b1b\vegan’ to ‘C:\Users\elaine\Documents\R\win-library\3.0\vegan’ I cannot find the folder \file16c82da53b1b\ below

Dear, I want to compute coefficient of determination (R-squared) to complement AIC for model selection of multivariable GLM. However, I found this is not a built-in function in glm. neither is it available through reviewing the question in the R-help archive. Please kindly help and thanks a lot.

Hello , I want to compare two quadratic regression models with non-parametric bootstrap. However, I do not know which R package can serve the purpose, such as boot, rms, or bootstrap, DeltaR. Please kindly advise and thank you. Elaine The two quadratic regression models are y1=a1x^2+b1x+c1 y1= observed migration distance of butterflies() y2=a2x^2+b2x+c2 y2= predicted migration distance of

Dear list I have a matrix composed of islandID as rows and speciesID as columns. IslandID: Island A, B, C….O (15 islands in total) SpeciesID: D0001, D0002, D0003….D0100 (100 species in total) The cell of the matrix describes presence (1) or absence (0) of the species in an island. Now I would like to search the species with absence (0) in all the islands (Island A to Island O.)

Hello, I want to know if two quadratic regressions are significantly different. I was advised to make the test using step 1 bootstrapping both quadratic regressions and get their slope coefficients. (Let's call the slope coefficient *â*^1 and *â*^2) step 2 use the slope difference *â*^1-*â*^2 and bootstrap the slope coefficent step 3 find out the sampling distribution above and

Dear List, I want to compare the presence and absence of bird species based on the sites in a matrix. The matrix has 5 rows for Island A, B, C, D, and E. It has 100 columns for bird species D001-D100. In each cell of the matrix, the presence-absence of bird species will be recorded as 1 or 0. (For example, if species D001 is found on Island D, the matrix cell of species D001 and Island D

Hello, I have a matrix (class matrix) composed of GridCell (row and column). The matrix value is the beta diversity index value between two grids. Now I would like to get the average value of each GridCell. Please kindly advise how to make the calculation. Thank you. Elaine The matrix looks like (cited from Michael Friendly) I would like to get the average value of each color. Obs

Dear, I am a newbie to R. Now I am learning to draw boxplot using graphics(). I want to highlight the median position with a round point and the value left (or on the top of)to the point. Please kindly share the command and thank you. Elaine [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello, I am making a boxplot of 13 boxes. I tried to color the box using 13 colors but failed. Only red and brown were displayed. Green, blue, and grey disappeared. Please kindly advise modification after checking the code below. Thank you in advance. Elaine R code # data input dataN <-read.csv("H:/a_mig_distance_B_NB/R_data/Mig_bird_586_20120925.csv",header=T, row.names=1)

Hello I have a table describing butterfly range traits. It is composed of three columns as below Species name range size (X) latitude of range midpoint (Y) There are 11 kinds of butterflies. Each has its range size, and the latitude of each range midpoint ranges from 9 to 19. I would like to have the average range size of every degree of latitude. For example, the average range

Dear List, I am using plot for homework. The x-axis covered from 0 to 80, with 4 intervals. However, the plot only showed 0, 40, 80. 20 and 60 disappeared. Please kindly advise how to show 0, 20, 40, 60, 80 for the axis interval. Thank you. Elaine [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear List, I ran a regression model using lm and produced a regression line using abline. The line ranges from -20 to 20 in x axis, and the section I only want is from -20 to 0. Please kindly advise any function in abline () to set the range of x axes. Thank you Elaine [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello This is Elaine. I am using package lattice to generate boxplots. Using Richard's code, the display was almost perfect except the outlier shape. Based on the following code, the outliers are vertical lines. However, I want the outliers to be empty circles. Please kindly help how to modify the code to change the outlier shapes. Thank you. code package (lattice) dataN <-

Dear List, This is Elaine, a postgraduate studying in bird distributions in East Asia. I want to calculate Simpson dissimilarity index, based on a presence/absence matrix of bird species in islands in East Asia. (matrix row: 36 islands/matrix column: species ID) (R package vegan to make NMDS and R package betapart) In most papers using vegan for NMDS and betapart for dissimilarity

Dear list, I wanna select the significant variables relative to bird distribution, using stepwise method. However, the result is always the best-fit model. Please kindly suggest if it is possible to show the selection process. Thank you Elaine [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear List, I have a richness data distributing across 20 N to 20 S latitude. (120 E-140 E longitude). I would like to draw the richness in the north hemisphere and a regression line in the plot (x-axis: latitude, y-axis: richness in the north hemisphere). The above demand is done using plot. Then, south hemisphere richness and regression are required to be generated using the same y-axis above
