mgcv 1.4 is now on CRAN. It includes new features to allow mgcv::gam to fit almost any (quadratically) penalized GLM, plus some extra smoother classes. New gam features ------------------------- * Linear functionals of smooths can be included in the gam linear predictor, allowing, e.g., functional generalized linear models/signal regression, smooths of interval data, etc. * The parametric

Hi, Currently the `gaussian' family's initialization code signals an error if any response data are zero or negative and a log link is used. Given that zero or negative response data are perfectly legitimate under the GLM fitted using `gaussian("log")', this seems a bit unsatisfactory. Might it be worth changing it? The current offending code from `gaussian' is:

Hi, According to the help file for model.frame/get_all_vars, the following should produce the same output from both functions, but it doesn't... > dat <- list(X=matrix(1:15,5,3),z=26:30) > model.frame(~z+X,dat) z X.1 X.2 X.3 1 26 1 6 11 2 27 2 7 12 3 28 3 8 13 4 29 4 9 14 5 30 5 10 15 > get_all_vars(~z+X,dat) [1] z X <NA> <NA> <0

mgcv 1.5-0 is now on CRAN. Main changes are: * REML and ML smoothness selection are now available. * A Tweedie family has been added. * `gam.method' has been replaced (see arguments `method' and `optimizer' for `gam') For other changes see the changeLog.

The plots look reasonable to me. The plot of residuals against linear predictor always looks scary when many of the fitted values are very close to zero, so I tend to look at residuals against sqrt(fitted) in such cases. I don't think that the presence of the zero curve is a reason to reject the model --- it's easy to produce such plots by fitting a completely correct model to simulated

Hi Greg, For quasi families I've used extended quasi-likelihood (see Mccullagh and Nelder, Generalized Linear Models 2nd ed, section 9.6) in place of the likelihood/quasi-likelihood in the expression for the (RE)ML score. I hadn't realised that this was possible before the paper was published. best, Simon ps. sorry for slow reply, the original message slipped through my filter for

re: Cubic splines in package "mgcv" I don't have access to Gu (2002) but clearly the function R(x,z) defined on p126 of Simon Wood's book is piecewise quartic, not piecewise cubic. Like Kunio Takezawa (below) I was puzzled by the word "cubic" on p126. As Simon Wood writes, this basis is not actually used by mgcv when specifying bs="cr". Maybe the point is

Dear list: since it took me a little while to figure out how to make use of naresid, I thought that the below R code might be useful as an example on the help page. Regards, Markus # generate some data x1 <- runif(20) y <- 10 + 5*x1 + rnorm(20) summary(lm.0 <- lm(y ~ x1)) # append some NA's to y y <- c(y, rep(NA, 5)) # generate some further x1s x1 <- c(x1, runif(5)) #

Dear users, I am trying to show the equation (including coefficients from the model estimates) for a gam model but do not understand how to. Slide 7 from one of the authors presentations (gam-theory.pdf URL: http://people.bath.ac.uk/sw283/mgcv/) shows a general equation log{E(yi )} = ?+ ?xi + f (zi ) . What I would like to do is put my model coefficients and present the equation used. I am an

I am having trouble understanding the way naresid is used when using predict/residual in a new data frame. >From the example below, the NAs are displayed when predicting inside the original frame, but are dropped when applied to a new frame. ultimately I need to cbind the residuals and predictions to a dataframe. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. >

The help pages of R-1.2.2 include several pages on various time series functions, but when I try to use these functions they appear not to be available .... am I missing something obvious, or are these functions not yet built?

Dear useRs, This is the first time I post to this list and I would appreciate any help available. I've used the excellent mgcv package for a while now to investigate geographical patterns of language variation, and it has has always worked without any problems for me. The problem below occurs using R 2.14.0 (both 32 and 64 bit versions in Windows and the 64 bit version in Unix) and mgcv (both

Dear R users I have a list, as follows: > intvl.period.myrs $Devonian [1] 4.8 4.2 9.5 5.7 $Ordovician [1] 7.2 5.1 10.2 1.9 $Silurian [1] 4.7 3.0 7.8 2.0 3.3 1.6 2.6 2.7 I want to write a loop that will sum up the values in each part, and give me a vector containing the (in this case 3) summed values this is what I have so far: for (i in 1:length(names(intvl.periods.myrs)) {

Qusetion #1 ********* Model selection in GAM can be done by using: 1. step.gam {gam} : A directional stepwise search 2. gam {mgcv} : Smoothness estimation using GCV or UBRE/AIC criterion Suppose my model starts with a additive model (linear part + spline part). Using gam() {mgcv} i got estimated degrees of freedom(edf) for the smoothing splines. Now I want to use the functional form of my model

Sometimes, for specific models, I get this error from predict.gam in library mgcv: Error in complete.cases(object) : negative length vectors are not allowed Here's an example: model.calibrate <- gam(meansalesw ~ s(tscore,bs="cs",k=4), data=toplot, weights=weight, gam.method="perf.magic") > test <- predict(model.calibrate,newdata) Error in

Hi -I'm running a GAM with 7 explanatory variables with a Poisson error structure. All of the variables are continuous so I'm getting error messages in R. cod.fall.full.gam.model<-gam(Kept.CPUE~s(HOUR)+s(LAT_dec)+s(LONG_dec)+s(meantemp_C)+s(meandepth_fa)+s(change_depth)+s(seds), data=cod.fall.version2,family=poisson) In dpois(y, mu, log = TRUE) ... : non-integer x = 5.325517

Hello all... I'm attempting to write my own GAM plot function, so I can overlay it on top of an already existing plot. Problem is that after I do the gam, e.g. m<-gam(...), I cannot match the graph that gam.plot outputs when I attempt to plot the values from m$residuals, m$linear.predictors or m$fitted.values. Kind of at a loss what variables to use or if I need to do something
