Hi All: the package "MuMIn" can be used to select the model based on AIC or AICc. The code is as follows: data(Cement) lm1 <- lm(y ~ ., data = Cement) dd <- dredge(lm1,rank="AIC") print(dd) If I want to select the model by BIC, what code do I need to use? And when to select the best model based on AIC, what the differences between the function "dredge" in

Hello, I'd like to sum the weights of each independent variable across linear models that have been evaluated using AIC. For example: > library(MuMIn) > data(Cement) > lm1 <- lm(y ~ ., data = Cement) > dd <- dredge(lm1, beta = TRUE, eval = TRUE, rank = "AICc") > get.models(dd, subset = delta <4) There are 5 models with a Delta AIC Score of

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 R-list I have a question concerning the argument "adjustSigma" in the function "lme" of the package "nlme". The help page says: "the residual standard error is multiplied by sqrt(nobs/(nobs - npar)), converting it to a REML-like estimate." Having a look into the code I found: stdFixed <- sqrt(diag(as.matrix(object$varFix))) if (object$method

I would like test AICc as a criteria for model selection for a glm using stepAIC() from MASS package. Based on various information available in WEB, stepAIC() use extractAIC() to get the criteria used for model selection. I have created a new extractAIC() function (and extractAIC.glm() and extractAIC.lm() ones) that use a new parameter criteria that can be AIC, BIC or AICc. It works as

Greetings to r-help land. I've run into some program crashes and I've traced them back to methods() behavior after the package gdata is loaded. I provide now a minimal re-producible example. This seems bugish to me. How about you? dat <- data.frame(x = rnorm(100), y = rnorm(100)) lm1 <- lm(y ~ x, data = dat) methods(class = "lm") ## OK so far library(gdata)

Hi All: Recently I am researching my dissertation about the quantile model selection by bayesian approach. I have the dependent variable(return) and 16 independent variables and I need to select the best variable for each quantile of return. And the method I used is the bayesian approach, which is based on calculating the posterior distibution of model identifier. In other words, I need to obtain

Dear all, I found a problem with 'lme4'. Basically, once you load the package 'aod' (Analysis of Overdispersed Data), the functions 'lmer' and 'glmer' don't work anymore: library(lme4) (fm1 <- lmer(Reaction ~ Days + (Days|Subject), sleepstudy)) (gm1 <- glmer(cbind(incidence, size - incidence) ~ period + (1 | herd), family = binomial, data

G'day all, I had a look at the GLM code of R (1.4.1) and I believe that there are problems with the function "glm.fit" that may bite in rare circumstances. Note, I have no data set with which I ran into trouble. This report is solely based on having a look at the code. Below I append a listing of the glm.fit function as produced by my system. I have added line numbers so that I

Dear R users, Would it be difficult to change the code of stepAIC (from the MASS library) to use AICc instead of AIC? It would be great to know of someone has tried this already. Best wishes Christoph.

All, I am working on a multiple-regression meta-analysis and have too many alternative models to fit by hand. I am using the "metafor" package in R, which generates AIC scores among other metrics. I'm using a simple formula to define these models. For example, rma(Effect_size,variance, mods=~Myco_type + N.type +total, method="ML")->mod where Effect_size is the

Hi All, Could someone help me decode what this error means ? > BIC(nb.80) Error in log(attr(object, "nobs")) : Non-numeric argument to mathematical function > BTW, nb.80 is a negative binomial glm model created using the MASS library with the call at the bottom of the message In the hopes of trying to figure this out I tried the following workaround but it did not work

Hi All, I have tried every fix on my try or tryCatch that I have found on the internet, but so far have not been able to get my R code to continue with the "for loop" after the lmer model results in an error. Here is two attemps of my code, the input is a 3D array file, but really any function would do.... metatrialstry<-function(mydata){ a<-matrix(data=NA, nrow=dim(mydata)[3],

I am trying to obtain the AICc after performing logistic regression using the Design package. For simplicity, I'll talk about the AIC. I tried building a model with lrm, and then calculating the AIC as follows: likelihood.ratio <- unname(lrm(succeeded~var1+var2,data=scenario,x=T,y=T)$stats["Model L.R."]) #Model likelihood ratio??? model.params <- 2 #Num params in my model AIC

Buenos días, Os cuento: Cargo la librería "Forecast" y ejecuto su función Arima(...) sobre una serie temporal: mimodelo <- Arima(miST$miserie, ...); Ahora si ejecuto las siguientes sentencias, voy obteniendo los resultados contenidos en "mimodelo", pero algunos de ellos no sé lo que son: mimodelo[[1]] obtengo los coeficientes del modelo ARIMA mimodelo[[2]] obtengo el

I am fitting logistic regression models, by defining my own link function, and would like to get AICc values. Using the glm command gives a value for AIC, but I haven't been able to get R to convert that to AICc. Is there a code that has already been written for this? Right now I am just putting the AIC values into an excel spreadsheet and calculating AICc, likelihood, and AIC

Is there an R implementation of a scheme for automatic smoothing parameter selection with loess, e.g., by minimizing one of the AIC/GCV statistics discussed by Hurvich, Simonoff & Tsai (1998)? Below is a function that calculates the relevant values of AICC, AICC1 and GCV--- I think, because I to guess from the names of the components returned in a loess object. I guess I could use

Hi. I'm fairly new to R and have a quick question regarding AIC, logLik and numbers of parameters. I see that there has been some correspondence on this in the past but none of the threads seem to have been satisfactorily resolved. I have been trying to use R to obtain AIC for fitted models and then to extrapolate to AICc. For example, using simple x-y regression data, I fitted a

Dear R Helpers, I have noticed that when I use lmer to analyse data, the summary function gives different values for the AIC, BIC and log-likelihood compared with the anova function. Here is a sample program #make some data set.seed(1); datx=data.frame(array(runif(720),c(240,3),dimnames=list(NULL,c('x1','x2','y' )))) id=rep(1:120,2); datx=cbind(id,datx) #give x1 a
