similar to: When to use bootstrap confidence intervals?

Hi all: I get the following error message that I am not able to resolve. Error in if (const(t, min(1e-08, mean(t)/1e+06))) { : missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed It appears right before the last data.frame statement. Below is the program that simulates data from one way random effects model and then computes normality and bootstrap confidence interval for

Sometimes one might like to obtain pointwise bootstrap bias-corrected, accelerated (BCA) confidence intervals for a large number of statistics computed from a single dataset. For instance, one might like to get (so as to plot graphically) bootstrap confidence bands for the fitted values in a regression model. (Example: Chiu S et al., Early Acceleration of Head Circumference in Children with

Dear R users, I am new to R. I would like to calculate bootstrap confidence intervals using the BCa method for a parameter of interest. My situation is this: I already have a set of 1000 bootstrap replicates created from my original data set. I have already calculated the statistic of interest for each bootstrap replicate, and have also calculated the mean for this statistic across all the

I like to bootstrap regression models, saving the entire set of bootstrapped regression coefficients for later use so that I can get confidence limits for a whole set of contrasts derived from the coefficients. I'm finding that ordinary bootstrap percentile confidence limits can provide poor coverage for odds ratios for binary logistic models with small N. So I'm exploring BCa confidence

Hi folks, I'm trying to estimate bias-corrected percentile (BCP) confidence intervals on a vector from a simple for loop used for resampling. I am attempting to follow steps in Manly, B. 1998. Randomization, bootstrap and monte carlo methods in biology. 2nd edition., p. 48. PDF of the approach/steps should be available here: https://wyocoopunit.box.com/s/9vm4vgmbx5h7um809bvg6u7wr392v6i9 If

Hi all. This is my first post in this forum. Finally I find a forum in the web about R, although is not in my language. Now I'm working with Bootstrap CI. I'd like to know how I can calculate a Bootstrap CI for any statistic, in particular, for Kurtosis Coeficient. I have done the following code lines: > library(boot) > x=rnorm(20) > kurtosis=function(x)

Can anyone please tell me if there is a function to calculate confidence intervals for the results of the quantile function. Some of my data is normally distributed but some is also a squewed distribution or a capped normal distribution. Some of the data sets contain about 700 values whereas others are smaller with about 100-150 values, so I would like to see how the confidence intervals change

Dear R-Experts, Thanks to Prof. Bonnett, I have got an R script working to calculate confidence intervals around the semipartial correlation coefficients. Now, I would like to calculate BCa bootstrap CIs using the boot library and the boot.ci(results, type="all") function. How could I modify my R script (here below reproducible example) to get the BCa bootstrap CIs ? CIsemipartcorr

I am trying to change this define void @main(float* noalias %arg0, float* noalias %arg1, float* noalias %arg2) { entrypoint: %0 = bitcast float* %arg1 to <4 x float>* intothis define void @main(float* noalias %arg0, float* noalias %arg1, float* noalias %arg2) { entrypoint: %0 = getelementptr float* %arg1, i64 0 %1 = bitcast float* %0 to <4 x float>* I must be close but

Please I need some help using R to analyze my data. What I would like to do is to repeat the same basic process (e.g. linear regression between wood density and distance from pith) for at least 240 data subsets within the main data-frame. Within the main data-frame, these data subsets will be defined by three variables namely,  species, individual and core (i.e. 20 species, at least 6

In the boot package,consider a scalar function to boot. > estimator <- function(x, d) { + mean(x[d]) + } > > data <- city$u > b <- boot(data, estimator, R=1000) > b$t0 [1] 64 > ci <- boot.ci(b, type=c("bca"), conf=.95) > ci$bca conf [1,] 0.95 49.44 991.39 36.78807 110.0254 Now if I want estimators to return a vector,E.g. it's {c(mean(x[d]),

Dear all, Does someone know an R function implementing the method of Sison and Glaz (1995) (see full ref below) for computing Simultaneous confidence intervals for multinomial proportions? As alternative method, I think to boostrap the mean of each proportion and get in that way confidence interval of the mean. I observed 21 times a response that could be one out of 8 categories

Could someone help me on how to correctly try to correct this error message arning : BCa Intervals used Extreme Quantiles Some BCa intervals may be unstable Warning message: Extreme Order Statistics used as Endpoints in: norm.inter(t, adj.alpha) Regards IF [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I tried to reproduce a result from a former colleague which he got with S-plus bootstrap method. I don't have S-plus at hand. In R, there are 2 packages related to bootstrap method, bootstrap and boot. The former has a function called 'bootstrap' but this does not seem to conform either to the function used in S-plus nor to that described in MASS, 3d ed., p.144. The latter seems to be

I'm confused about name spaces. This morning I installed the boot package because I wanted to look at bca.ci. So I did library(boot), but then I had, > bca.ci Error: Object "bca.ci" not found I had a look in the boot R directory and bca.ci was there as expected. So then I took a look at the NAMESPACE file for the boot package and saw that bca.ci wasn't exported. I tried

Hello, I'm not much of a programmer, and am trying to understand the workings of the function below called "RStatFctn" within this bootstrap procedure. RStatFctn is defined to have two arguments: "x", intended to be a data vector; and "d" intended to be an index (or so it looks to me). Later, "rnormdat" is created to be the data vector. However,

I'm using R 2.15.1 on a 64-bit machine with Windows 7 Home Premium. Sample problem (screwy subscripted syntax is a relic of edited down a more complex script): > N <- 25 > s <- rlnorm(N, 0, 1) > require("boot") Loading required package: boot > v <- NULL # hold sample variance estimates > i <- 1 > v[i] <- var(s) # get sample variance >

Hello, First of all, when I tried to use function mic I got an error. mic(cbind(C, D)) Error in mic(cbind(C, D)) : could not find function "mic" So I've changed your function myCor and all went well, with a warning relative to BCa intervals. myCor <- function(data, index){ mine(data[index, ])$MIC } results=boot(data = cbind(C,D), statistic = myCor, R = 2000)
