Dear R users: I want to model mosquito count data based on landcover attributes and meteorological variables using a Poisson GLSM in the geoRglm package. I have monthly mosquito counts over more than 20 years with repeated observations from individual trap sites over time. I have used as.geodata() to successfully read my dataset into the geodata format utilized by geoR and geoRglm,

Hi All, I'm trying to use the geoRglm package to run a poisson spatial glm on a dataset with several covariates. When I run without covariates I have no problems. control1.data.geo <- mcmc.control(S.scale=0.2, thin = 1) model1.data.geo <- list(cov.pars = c(1,1), beta=c(1), family="poisson") test1.model1 <- glsm.mcmc(data.geo, model=model1.data.geo,

Hi R-people: Working in geoRglm, it shows me, according to AIC criterion, that the non-spacial model describes the process in a better way. It's the first time that I'm facing up to. These are my results: OP2003Seppos.AICnonsp-OP2003Seppos.AICsp #[1] -4 (OP2003Seppos.lf0.p<-exp(OP2003Seppos.lf0$beta)/(1+exp(OP2003Seppos.lf0$beta))) #P non spatial #[1] 0.9717596

Hello, I used glsm.mcmc and likfit.glsm to create model. Now I want to predict at different locations, but I can't get glsm.krige to work. I keep getting the error that trend.d and trend.l must have similar specifications. I have tried numerous ways to include the covariates in the glsm.krige model, and I keep getting the same error message. The bolded part is the part that doesn't work.

ComRades: I am geeting the error message Error in ldots[[which(MET)]] : attempt to select less than one element when I try to fit the geostatistical model with the likfit() function of geoR. I have tried with old data for which likfit() successfully maximised the likelihood in previous versions of geoR, and yet the current version fails. I have tried in Windows Vista and Windows XP (I haven't

Hi I'm using geoR package to perform linear spatial interpolation(OK). The function likfit() fails to compute REML. The error meassage is : Error in solve.default(v$varcov, xmat); How I can find out that likfit() is failed to process and retrieving the error message ? Thank you so much for your help.

We want to compute a pseudo R-squared for a model whose parameter estimation was based on maximum likelihood (function likfit, package geoR). I tried to compute the R2 proposed by Maddala (1983) which compare the maximized likelihood for the model without any predictor and the maximized likelihood for the model with all predictors. I got a really low value (0,01%). Did I miss something? Are

Hi, I want to automatically fit variograms to a large number of different sample data sets, and call the funtion "likfit" (in package geoR) from within a for-loop. "likfit" does again call "optim". After ssuccessfully fitting variograms to some of the data sets, the procedure crashes and I get the error message: Error in optim(par = ini, fn = negloglik.GRF,

Hi I am struggling to fit a non-linear trend using the likfit function in geoR. Specifically I want a sigmoidal function, something like SSfpl in the nls package to fit the trend. But it seems trend.spatial in geoR only works with lm or glm type models. Any ideas how I can specify the model to calculate the kriging parameters using REML, including the parameters of a sigmoidal trend function

Hi, I'm writing some R code that requires a massive amount of looping and would ideally like to write it so that it avoid the use of "for" loop ... however I'm having some trouble. Very briefly, the basic idea is to implement a binary partitioning algorithm to determine the optimal cutpoint based on deviance measures obtained from likelihood estiamtes. This is in the

Hi, R-folks: I have been tryin many combination of parameter to make Matern variogram to work, but I can't find the available one. I'm near to be crazy. I tiped: A?o2003Selg.lf<-likfit(A?o2003Selg,cov.model="matern",ini.cov.pars=c(1.5,14),kappa=2.5,fix.kappa=FALSE,nugget=0.08,lambda=0.008,fix.lambda=FALSE,hessian=TRUE) the hessian shows: $hessian [,1]

Hi. I'm trying to perform what should be a reasonably basic analysis of some spatial presence/absence data but am somewhat overwhelmed by the options available and could do with a helpful pointer. My researches so far indicate that if my data were normal, I would simply use gls() (in nlme) and one of the various corSpatial functions (eg. corSpher() to be analagous to similar analysis in SAS)

Hola, LLevo buscando desde hace tiempo como hacer el Goodness of fit test en R. Es decir, me explico, intento hacer una cosa parecida que se hace en Minitab, por ejemplo, yo tengo un conjunto de datos, y lo que quiero es sabes que tipo de distibución es, en minitab se hace un histograma para ver si se ajusta bien o no a la campana de Gauss, luego vemos si aproximar la distribución de la muestra

Hi everyone !   I'm am trying to fit a kriging model to a set of data. When I just run the "likfit" command I can obtain the results. However when I try to pass additional arguements to the optimization function "optim" I get errors. That is I want to obtain the hessian matrix so matrix (hessian=TRUE).   Heres a little example( 1-D). Can anyone shed some light?  Where am I

I have been modelling spatial data using function likfit in package geoR. Now that I have the spatial regression models, I would like to calculate the amount of variance explained by both the trend and the spatial parts of the model. Any advice on how to do this would be much appreciated. Cheers, Ailsa

I am having difficulty getting the trend.spatial function in geoR to work properly. After creating a trend.spatial object with a covariate, I try to add the command into my likfit() function as follows: trend1.trend.spatial <- trend.spatial("1st", trend1.geodata) trend1.spatial.EC0.1.reml <- likfit(spatial.geodata, trend1.trend.spatial, ini.cov.pars = spatial.EC0.1.eyefit,

Dear Aaron, I am really a tool user and not a tool maker (actually an ecologist doing some biostatistics)... so, I take the liberty of sending a copy of this e-mail to the r-help list where capable computer persons and true statisticians may provide more relevant information and also to Paulo Ribeiro and Peter Diggle, the authors of geoR.. I really feel that your huge matrix cannot be
