Dear all, I need to compute tensor product of B-spline defined over equi-spaced break-points. I wrote my own program (it works in a 2-dimensional setting) library(splines) # set the break-points Knots = seq(-1,1,length=10) # number of splines M = (length(Knots)-4)^2 # short cut to splineDesign function bspline = function(x) splineDesign(Knots,x,outer.ok = T) # bivariate tensor product of

dear all, I apologize for my delay in replying you. Here my contribution, maybe just for completeness: Similar to "earth", "segmented" also fits piecewise linear relationships with the number of breakpoints being selected by the AIC or BIC (recommended). #code (example and code from Martin Maechler previous email) library(segmented) o<-selgmented(y, ~x, Kmax=20,

I?m trying to run a logistic joinpoint regression utilising the ljr package. I?ve been using the forward selection technique to get the number of knots for the analysis, but I?m uncertain as to my results and the interpretation. The documentation is rather brief ( in the package and the stats in medicine article is quite technical) and without any good examples. At the moment I?m thinking 1)find

Hello I'm using function gam from package mgcv to fit splines. ?When I try to make a prediction slightly beyond the original 'x' range, I get this error: > A = runif(50,1,149) > B = sqrt(A) + rnorm(50) > range(A) [1] 3.289136 145.342961 > > > fit1 = gam(B ~ s(A, bs="ps"), outer.ok=TRUE) > predict(fit1, newdata=data.frame(A=149.9), outer.ok=TRUE) Error

Dear List, I'm using gam in a multiple imputation framework -- specifying the knot locations, and saving the results of multiple models, each of which is fit with slightly different data (because some of it is predicted when missing). In MI, coefficients from multiple models are averaged, as are variance-covariance matrices. VCV's get an additional correction to account for how

Dear All, I'm interested in creating a function similar to ns() from package splines that can be passed in a model formula. The idea is to produce "safe" predictions from a model using this function. As I have seen, to do this I need to use makepredictcall(). Consider the following toy example: myns <- function (x, df = NULL, knots = NULL, intercept = FALSE, Boundary.knots =

Goodmorning, This is a documentation related question about the B-spline function in R. In the help file it is stated that: "df degrees of freedom; one can specify df rather than knots; bs() then chooses df-degree-1 knots at suitable quantiles of x (which will ignore missing values)." So if one were to specify a spline with 6 degrees of freedom (and no intercept) then a basis

Dear Rusers, I am now using R and SAS to fit the piecewise linear functions, and what surprised me is that they have a great differrent result. See below. #R code--Knots for distance are 16.13 and 24, respectively, and Knots for y are -0.4357 and -0.3202 m.glm<-glm(mark~x+poly(elevation,2)+bs(distance,degree=1,knots=c(16.13,24)) +bs(y,degree=1,knots=c(-0.4357,-0.3202

Dear R-help, In the rms package, I have fitted an ols model with a variable represented as a restricted cubic spline, with the knot locations specified as a previously defined vector. When I save the model object and open it in another workspace which does not contain the vector of knot locations, I get an error message if I try to predict with that model. This also happens if only one workspace

Dear, When fitting the following model knots <- 5 lrm.NDWI <- lrm(m.arson ~ rcs(NDWI,knots) I obtain the following result: Logistic Regression Model lrm(formula = m.arson ~ rcs(NDWI, knots)) Frequencies of Responses 0 1 666 35 Obs Max Deriv Model L.R. d.f.

Dear List, I'm using GAMs in a multiple imputation project, and I want to be able to combine the parameter estimates and covariance matrices from each completed dataset's fitted model in the end. In order to do this, I need the knots to be uniform for each model with partially-imputed data. I want to specify these knots based on the quantiles of the unique values of the non-missing

Hi, I have a question about the usage of eval(). Wonder if any experienced user can help me out of it. I use eval() in the following function: semireg.pwl <- function(coef.s=rnorm(1),coef.a=rnorm(1),knots.pos=knots.x,knots.ini.val=knots.val){ knotn <- length(knots.pos) def.par.env <- sys.frame(1) print(def.par.env) print(environment(coef.s)) tg <- eval( (parse(text=

Hello. I seem to be having the same problem that Paul had in the thread titled "[Rd] R 2.15.2 make check failure on 32-bit --with-blas="-lgoto2"" from October of last year <https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2012-October/065103.html> Unfortunately, that thread ended without an answer to his last question. Briefly, I am trying to compile an Rblas for Windows NT 32bit

Hi r-helpers. Please forgive my ignorance, but I would like to plot a smoothing spline (smooth.spline) from package "stats", and show the knots in the plot, and I can't seem to figure out where smooth.spline has located the knots (when I use nknots). Unfortunately, I don't know a lot about splines, but I know that they provide me an easy way to estimate the location of local

Apologies if this is this too obscure for R-help. In package splines, ns(x,,knots,intercept=TRUE) produces an n by K+2 matrix N, the values of K+2 basis functions for the natural splines with K (internal) knots, evaluated at x. It does this by first generating an n by K+4 matrix B of unconstrained splines, then postmultiplying B by H, a K+4 by K+2 representation of the nullspace of C (2 by K+4),

Hi, all I want to choose same knots in GAM for 10 different studies so that they has the same basis function. Even though I choose same knots and same dimensions of basis smoothing, the basis representations are still not same. My command is as follows: data.gam<-gam(y~s(age,bs='cr',k=10)+male,family=binomial,knots=list(age=seq(45,64,length=10))) What is my mistake for choice of

Below is an example of a problem I encounter repeatedly when I write functions. A call works at the command line, but it does not work inside a function, even when I have made sure that all required variables are available within the function. The only way I know to solve it is to make the required variable global, which of course is dangerous. What is the elegant or appropriate way to solve

Dear list, if I do smooth.spline(tmpSec, tmpT, all.knots=T) with the attached data, I get this error-message: Error in smooth.spline(tmpSec, tmpT, all.knots = T) : smoothing parameter value too small If I do smooth.spline(tmpSec[-single arbitrary number], tmpT[-single arbitrary number], all.knots=T) it works! I just don't see it. It works for hundrets other datasets, but not for
