similar to: how do I build panel data/longitudinal data models with AR terms using the plm package or any other package

Hi R users, I have a couple of questions about some problems that I am facing with regard to numerical integration and optimization of likelihood functions. Let me provide a little background information: I am trying to do maximum likelihood estimation of an econometric model that I have developed recently. I estimate the parameters of the model using the monthly US unemployment rate series

Hi all, I a semi-beginner with R and I am working with the plm package to examine a longitudinal dataset. Each individual in this dataset has a longitudinal weight for the probability that he or she remains in the sample. Unfortunately, I have not found an argument to use weights in the plm function? I tried ?weights=? like in standard lm or in nlme or lm4 but it does not work. I asked the

I am looking for examples of code that demonstrates the fine tuning of the strip panels in lattice graphics and uses plotmath characters. The code for the graphic is as follows: xyplot(lagy ~ n | rho1 * rho2, data= data, layout=c(2,6), span = 1, xlab = "Sample Size", ylab = "Bias in the Coefficient for the Lag of X", type = "o") rho1 is a four level factor

Hi, I'm trying to write a simple function like case1 <- function (m, cov, Q, R) { theta <- (acos(R/sqrt(Q^3))) beta <- (-2)*sqrt(Q)*cos(theta/3)+m[1]/3 rho1 <- (-2)*sqrt(Q)*cos((theta+2*pi)/3)+m[1]/3 rho2 <- (-2)*sqrt(Q)*cos((theta-2*pi)/3)+m[1]/3 stderrb <- deltamethod( ~(-2)*sqrt(Q)*cos(theta/3)+x1/3,m,cov) stderrr1 <- deltamethod(

[Apologies in advance if this is too "statistics" and not enough "R".] I've got an experiment with two sets of treatments. Each subject either received all treatments from set A or all treatments from set B. I can compute the N pairwise correlations for all treatments in either set using cor(). If I take the mean of these N pairwise correlations, I see that the effects

Hi to all, In other statistical software, such as Eviews, it is possible to regress a model with the Least Squares method, assuming that the residuals follow an AR(q) process. For example the resulting regression is something like y = 1.2154 + 0.2215 x + 0.251 AR(1) How is it possible to do the same in R? Thank you very much in advance, Constantine Tsardounis http://www.costis.name

Hi, I'm currently trying desperately to get the nnet function for training a neural network (with one hidden layer) to perform a regression task. So I run it like the following: trainednet <- nnet(x=traindata, y=trainresponse, size = 30, linout = TRUE, maxit=1000) (where x is a matrix and y a numerical vector consisting of the target values for one variable) To see whether the network

Hello all, I have been using R's time series capabilities to perform analysis for quite some time now and I am having some questions regarding its reliability. In several cases I have had substantial disagreement between R and other packages (such as gretl and the commercial EViews package). I have just encountered another problem and thought I'd post it to the list. In this case,

Rob J Hyndman gives great explanation here (https://robjhyndman.com/hyndsight/estimation/) for reasons why results from R's arima may differ from other softwares. @iacobus, to cite one, 'Major discrepancies between R and Stata for ARIMA' (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22443395/major-discrepancies-between-r-and-stata-for-arima), assign the, sometimes, big diferences from R

hi all i have a question that about the eigen analysis found in R and in eviews. i used the same data set in the two packages and found different answers. which is incorrect? the data is: aa ( a correlation matrix) 1 0.9801 0.9801 0.9801 0.9801 0.9801 1 0.9801 0.9801 0.9801 0.9801 0.9801 1 0.9801 0.9801 0.9801 0.9801 0.9801 1 0.9801 0.9801 0.9801 0.9801 0.9801 1 now > svd(aa) $d [1] 4.9204

Dear all, I met with some problems when dealing with a time series with serial correlation. FIRST, I generate a series with correlated errors set.seed(1) x=1:50 y=x+arima.sim(n = 50, list(ar = c(0.47))) SECOND, I estimate three constants (a, b and rho) in the model Y=a+b*X+u, where u=rho*u(-1)+eps library(nlme) gls(y~x,correlation = corAR1(0.5)) # Is it the right procedure?

Hello, I am trying to use the plm package for panel econometrics. I am just trying to get started and load my data. It seems from most of the sample documentation that I need to use the pdata.frame function to get my data loaded. However, even after installing the "plm" package, my R installation cannot find the function. I am trying to follow the example in plmEN.pdf (

Dear "plm"-Package insiders, [I posted the following observation is April already but unfortunately I am not aware of any answers. With the hope that someone found an answer in the mean time, I ask again:] I realized the following difficulty with the summary.plm function (demonstrated with the example from the ?plm documentation). library(plm) data("Produc",

Hi List I'm having difficulty understanding how plm should work with dynamic formulas. See the commands and output below on a standard data set. Notice that the first summary(plm(...)) call returns the same result as the second (it shouldn't if it actually uses the lagged variable requested). The third call results in error (trying to use diff'ed variable in regression) Other info:

Hello, I am using {plm} to estimate panel models. I want to estimate a model that includes fixed effects for time and individual, but has a random individual effect for the coefficient on the independent variable. That is, I would like to estimate the model: Y_it = a_i + a_t + B_i * X_it + e_it Where i denotes individuals, t denotes time, X is my independent variable, and B (beta) is the

Hi all I want to use plm function on splitted dataset but facing problems while doing it. I did the same for lm function it worked fine but now my problem forces me to use lags into it while in a single set I have multiple type of data, which I believe can only be done with panel data. The code I am using is A = split(mydata, mydata$Unique.ID.Number) Z = lapply(A, function(df){plm(Total.Sales
