Hello all, I'm trying to use confint from the MASS package to compute confidence intervals for an nls object. When I plot the results, however, they don't make sense - lines cross over the fitted model or just don't match the data. Code is : Thanks for help dat<-data.frame(a,b) with(dat, plot(a,b)) model<-(nls(b~(1/exp(a*x))*n, data=dat, start=list(x=.001,n=20),

Dear colleagues, I have used statistical software "R" in academic research, and I find very interesting. So now I have started my studies at advanced level. I have conducted several statistical models of the type "*nls*". In respect of procedures for models of the type nls, I'd like you answer only one question that I have had doubts, related to the formula

I have found some "issues" (bugs?) with nls confidence intervals ... some with the relatively new "port" algorithm, others more general (but possibly in the "well, don't do that" category). I have corresponded some with Prof. Ripley about them, but I thought I would just report how far I've gotten in case anyone else has thoughts. (I'm finding the code

Dear R-helpers, I am using confint() within a function, and I want to turn off the message it prints: x <- rnorm(100) y <- x^1.1+rnorm(100) nlsfit <- nls(y ~ g0*x^g1, start=list(g0=1,g1=1)) > confint(nlsfit) Waiting for profiling to be done... 2.5% 97.5% g0 0.4484198 1.143761 g1 1.0380479 2.370057 I cannot find any way to turn off 'Waiting for. .." I tried

Hi all, I've got a list (Reg3Lst) with 1000 nls regression results in it. I'd like to get the confidence interval of the parameters obtained with the nonlinear regressions. Thus I've used this: for (i in 1:1000) { foo<-list(foo,confint(Reg3Lst[[i]])) } For some regressions the confidence interval is not estimated because of a singular gradient result. Then it

Dear R users, I?m trying to optimize simultaneously two binomials inequalities (used in acceptance sampling) which are nonlinear solution, so there is no simple direct solution. Please, let me explain shortly the the problem and the question as following. The objective is to obtain the smallest value of 'n' (sample size) satisfying both inequalities: (1-alpha) <= pbinom(c, n, p1)

I need confint() for glm() to supress the messages "Waiting for profiling to be done..." because they mess up the caching mechanism of pgfSweave (see https://github.com/cameronbracken/pgfSweave/issues/40). I have read the help page of confint(), but I do not know how to get the help page for the glm() version, if any such help page exists. Is there a general way of turning of output

Hello all - This code will run, but it bogs down my computer when I run it for finer and finer time increments and more generations. I was wondering if there is a better way to write my loops so that this wouldn't happen.

It seems that confint.default returns an empty data.frame for objects of class mlm. For example: ``` nobs <- 20 set.seed(1234) # some fake data datf <- data.frame(x1=rnorm(nobs),x2=runif(nobs),y1=rnorm(nobs),y2=rnorm(nobs)) fitm <- lm(cbind(y1,y2) ~ x1 + x2,data=datf) confint(fitm) # returns: 2.5 % 97.5 % ``` I have seen proposed workarounds on stackoverflow and elsewhere, but

I can't get confint.glm to work from within a function. Consider the following (using R 1.9.1, Windows 2000): # FIRST: SOMETHING THAT WORKS FROM A COMMAND PROMPT DF <- data.frame(y=.1, N=100) (fit <- glm(y~1, family=binomial, data=DF, weights=DF[,"N"])) Call: glm(formula = y ~ 1, family = binomial, data = DF, weights = DF[, "N"]) Coefficients:

Hi, I am currently doing logistic regression analyses and I am trying to get confidence intervals for my partial logistic regression coefficients. Supposing I am right in assuming that the formula to estimate a 95% CI for a log odds coefficient is the following: log odds - 1.96*SE to log odds + 1.96*SE then I am not getting the right CI. For instance, this is a summary of my model:

Full_Name: Christian Lajaunie Version: 2.5.1 OS: Fedora fc6 Submission from: (NULL) (193.251.63.39) confint() does not use the appropriate variance term when the design matrix contains a zero column (which of course should not happen). Example: A 10x2 matrix with trivial column 1: > junk <- data.frame(x=rep(0,10), u=factor(sample(c("Y", "N"), 10, replace=T))) The

Dear R developers, I noticed a bug in the stats4 package, specifically in the confint method applied to ?mle? objects. In particular, when some ?fixed? parameters define the log likelihood, these parameters are stored within the mle object but they are not used by the ?confint" method, which retrieves their value from the global environment (whenever they still exist). Sample code: >

the function confint uses the profiling method of the function of the package MASS confint.glm even after the package has been detached! 1: might this be the intenden behavior? 2. How does the function remember its 'MASS' functionality after detaching the package? R: 1.8.0; Windows 2000 Here is a sample program > set.seed(7882) > x<-rep(c(0,1),c(20,20)) >
