Hi, I am hoping some one can help with this. I am using nlme to fit a random coefficients model. It ran for hours before returning Error: Singularity in backsolve at level 0, block 1 The model is > plavix.nlme<-nlme(PLX_NRX~loglike(PLX_NRX,PD4_42D,GAT_34D,VIS_42D,MSL_42D,SPE_ROL,XM2_DUM,THX_DUM,b0,b1,b2,b3,b4,b5,b6,b7,alpha), + data=data, + fixed=list(b0 +

I've added a "backsolve" method to the bdsmatrix library. Per the Extending manual section 7.1 I've also added the following 3 lines along with my setMethod definitions for 2 classes. backsolve <- function(r, ...) UseMethod("backsolve") backsolve.default <- base:::backsolve formals(backsolve.default) <- c(formals(backsolve.default), alist(... = )) I've

I get the following error from one of my Rd files in R CMD check (R 2-14.0) * checking Rd files ... WARNING Error in switch(attr(block, "Rd_tag"), TEXT = if (!grepl("^[[:space:]]* $", : EXPR must be a length 1 vector problem found in ?backsolve.Rd? This is likely something that will be glaringly obvious once it's pointed out, but without a line number I can't

I'm hoping that someone with deeper insight into S4 than I, that is to say virtually everyone reading this list, could help resolve the following problem in SparseM. We have setGeneric("backsolve", function(r, x, k = NULL, upper.tri = NULL, transpose = NULL, twice = TRUE, ...) standardGeneric("backsolve"), useAsDefault= function(r, x,

Hello there I'm writing some c-code to solve a numerically tough problem for me in R. Looking in Lapack.h, i find the following line F77_NAME(dgesvx)(const int* fact, const char* trans, const int* n, and I believe that "fact" should've been char instead of int, i.e. F77_NAME(dgesvx)(const char* fact, const char* trans, const int* n, My reasoning: In the R-source:

I am trying to add support for select_cc. In ARM it can be implemented with: mov $dst, $falseVal cmp $a, $b moveq $dst, $trueVal My current strategy is to expand select_cc in two ARM nodes: ARM::SELECT and ARM::CMP. The two nodes would be connected by a flag edge. ARM::CMP would then expand to "cmp $a, $b". This instruction has no results. It only alters the CPSR (current program

Hi I'm trying to use ouch's hansen and brown functions but I get the error: > brown(logflatnodes,archotreeouch) Error in backsolve(l, x, k = k, upper.tri = upper.tri, transpose = transpose) : NA/NaN/Inf in foreign function call (arg 1) and with hansen also: Error in optim(par = c(sqrt.alpha, sigma), fn = function(par) { : function cannot be evaluated at initial parameters

Hi, I am trying to convert the following NLMIXED code to NLME, but am running into problems concerning 'Singularity in backsolve'. As I am new to R/S-Plus, I thought I may be missing something in the NLME code. NLMIXED *********** proc nlmixed data=kidney.kidney; parms delta=0.03 gamma=1.1 b1=-0.003 b2=-1.2 b3=0.09 b4=0.35 b5=-1.43 varu=0.5; eta=b1*age+b2*sex+b3*gn+b4*an+b5*pkn+u;

Dear R-ers, I am having trouble understanding why I am getting an error using glmmPQL (library MASS). I am getting the following error: iteration 1 Error in MEEM(object, conLin, control$niterEM) : Singularity in backsolve at level 0, block 1 The long story: I have data from an experiment on pairwise comparisons between 3 treatments (a, b, c). So a typical run of an experiment

Dear All, After upgrading to R-2.4.0-dapper2 (my system is ubuntu 6.06 LTS), I often met problems when loading some packages like Matrix. Here is the details: > library(Matrix) Error in loadNamespace(package, c(which.lib.loc, lib.loc), keep.source = keep.source) : in 'Matrix' methods specified for export, but none defined: Arith, Math, Math2, +, %*%, Schur, as.matrix, chol,

In a newly downloaded version (today) of R-2-4-0alpha, with all packages from CRAN also installed today, I get: > library(Matrix) Erro en loadNamespace(package, c(which.lib.loc, lib.loc), keep.source = keep.source) : in 'Matrix' methods specified for export, but none defined: BIC, anova, coef, confint, deviance, fitted, fixef, formula, head, lmer, logLik, mcmcsamp, plot,

Dear Douglas Bates. I just downloaded the compiled version (I'm a poor Windows devil, not yet having found the time to move to a more advanced platform...) from NT- the files are dated 30.5-1999 so they are not old - and the problem persisted....wonder what I did wrong ?

In my package 'glmmML' I'm using old C code and linpack in the optimizing procedure. Specifically, one part of the code looks like this: F77_CALL(dpoco)(*hessian, &bdim, &bdim, &rcond, work, info); if (*info == 0){ F77_CALL(dpodi)(*hessian, &bdim, &bdim, det, &job); ........ This usually works OK, but with an ill-conditioned data

Hi, For another trainingset I get this error message, which again is rather cryptic to me: Setting default kernel parameters Error in array(0, c(n, p)) : 'dim' specifies too large an array RMate stopped at line 0 of selection Calls: rvm ... .local -> backsolve -> as.matrix -> chol -> diag -> array thanks for any suggestions!

Hi all, I would like to fit a gamm model of the form: Y~X+X*f(z) Where f is the smooth function and With random effects on X and on the intercept. So, I try to write it like this: gam.lme<- gamm(Y~ s(z, by=X) +X, random=list(groups=pdDiag(~1+X)) ) but I get the error message : Error in MEestimate(lmeSt, grps) : Singularity in backsolve at level 0, block 1

I need to find solutions to a tridiagonal system. By this I mean a set of linear equations Ax = d where A is a square matrix containing elements A[i,i-1], A[i,i] and A[i,i+1] for i in 1:nrow, and zero elsewhere. R is probably not the ideal way to do this, but this is part of a larger problem that requires R. In my application it is much easier (and much faster) to generate the diagonal and

I am trying to run a GLMM on some binomial data. My fixed factors include 2 dichotomous variables, day, and distance. When I run the model: modelA<-glmmPQL(Leaving~Trial*Day*Dist,random=~1|Indiv,family="binomial") I get the error: iteration 1 Error in MEEM(object, conLin, control$niterEM) : Singularity in backsolve at level 0, block 1 >From looking at previous help

Dear R-help, Why can't lme cope with an incomplete whole plot when analysing a split-plot experiment?
