similar to: Bootstrap BCa confidence limits with your own resamples

I'm using R 2.15.1 on a 64-bit machine with Windows 7 Home Premium and package 'boot'. I've found that using a number of bootstrap resamples in boot() that is less than the number of data results in a fatal error. Once the number of resamples meets or exceeds the number of data, the error disappears. Sample problem (screwy subscripted syntax is a relic of edited down a more

Dear List, Couple of issues while using functions from ?BCA? library: 1. I am trying to use ?lift.chart? function from ?BCA? library, but facing issues while using model where model formula is passed as formula object in glm. When model formula is written as text, then it works fine. In my case input variables and target variables are going to change dynamically, so have to used formula as

Sometimes one might like to obtain pointwise bootstrap bias-corrected, accelerated (BCA) confidence intervals for a large number of statistics computed from a single dataset. For instance, one might like to get (so as to plot graphically) bootstrap confidence bands for the fitted values in a regression model. (Example: Chiu S et al., Early Acceleration of Head Circumference in Children with

Dear All, I am trying to use the bca.ci function on a boot.out object which consists a few NaN's and I want to ignore those NaN's, and get a ci only for the "normal" values. boot.out$t has R number of values for 3000 different statistics, so when I use boot.ci(boot.out, index=i) and i happens to be a column in boot.out$t with some NaN's in there I get an error message. I

i was searching for the source of bca.ci, a function of the package boot. I tried require(boot, keep.source=TRUE) but again the source was not viewable. How should i do?

Hello, I have a question regarding bootstrap confidence intervals. Suppose we have a data set consisting of single measurements, and that the measurements are independent but the distribution is unknown. If we want a confidence interval for the population mean, when should a bootstrap confidence interval be preferred over the elementary t interval? I was hoping the answer would be

I'm using R 2.15.1 on a 64-bit machine with Windows 7 Home Premium. Sample problem (screwy subscripted syntax is a relic of edited down a more complex script): > N <- 25 > s <- rlnorm(N, 0, 1) > require("boot") Loading required package: boot > v <- NULL # hold sample variance estimates > i <- 1 > v[i] <- var(s) # get sample variance >

Hi I'm using boot package for some analysis on linear regression coeficients. My problem is that I can not compute bca intervals, I get an error message > bca.ci(blm8901,index=1) Error in if (!all(rk > 1 & rk < R)) warning("Extreme Order Statistics used as Endpoints") : missing value where logical needed The problem is the empinf.reg function that is

I'm confused about name spaces. This morning I installed the boot package because I wanted to look at bca.ci. So I did library(boot), but then I had, > bca.ci Error: Object "bca.ci" not found I had a look in the boot R directory and bca.ci was there as expected. So then I took a look at the NAMESPACE file for the boot package and saw that bca.ci wasn't exported. I tried

Hello everybody, when I create an object of class boot with the function tsboot() from the package boot and try to compute several types of confidence intervals with boot.ci("object of class boot created with tsboot") I obtain the warning message, that "BCa-intervals are not defined for time-series bootstraps". Does that hold in general? Or is it just not defined in

Good Morning, I'm having what I hope to be a simple problem. I am generating bootstrap confidence intervals using package (boot) - which works perfectly. The issue I am having is getting the results into a format which I can write out to a database. To be clear I am having no problems generating the results, I just need to convert the format of the results such that I can store the results in

Dear R-Experts, Thanks to Prof. Bonnett, I have got an R script working to calculate confidence intervals around the semipartial correlation coefficients. Now, I would like to calculate BCa bootstrap CIs using the boot library and the boot.ci(results, type="all") function. How could I modify my R script (here below reproducible example) to get the BCa bootstrap CIs ? CIsemipartcorr

Dear List I have run into some problems with boot.ci from package boot. When I try to obtain a confidence interval of type bca, boot.ci() returns the following error when the data set i large: Error in bca.ci(boot.out, conf, index[1L], L = L, t = t.o, t0 = t0.o, : estimated adjustment 'a' is NA Below is an example that produces the above mentioned error on my machine. library(boot)

In the boot package,consider a scalar function to boot. > estimator <- function(x, d) { + mean(x[d]) + } > > data <- city$u > b <- boot(data, estimator, R=1000) > b$t0 [1] 64 > ci <- boot.ci(b, type=c("bca"), conf=.95) > ci$bca conf [1,] 0.95 49.44 991.39 36.78807 110.0254 Now if I want estimators to return a vector,E.g. it's {c(mean(x[d]),

Hi Jeff and others, When building the llvm runtime, I always get this error message: 'Can't destroy file: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.' The file is destoyed anyway. I think that the the real error is the path for the file (*/\file.tmp). However, I can't find the bug in the source. Do you have any clue?:

Hello, I'm not much of a programmer, and am trying to understand the workings of the function below called "RStatFctn" within this bootstrap procedure. RStatFctn is defined to have two arguments: "x", intended to be a data vector; and "d" intended to be an index (or so it looks to me). Later, "rnormdat" is created to be the data vector. However,
