R & gams
At office I have been introduced by another company to new, complex energy forecasting models using gams as the basic software. I have been told by the company offering the models that gams is specialised in dealing with huge, hevy-weight linear and non-linear modelling (see an example in http://www.gams.com/modtype/index.htm) and they say it is almost the only option for doing it. I would

Question about GAMs
hi! I hope all of you can help me this question for example GAMs: ozonea<-gam(newozone~ pressure+maxtemp+s(avetemp,bs="cr")+s(ratio,bs="cr"),family=gaussian (link=log),groupA,methods=REML) formula(ozonea) newozone ~ pressure + maxtemp + s(avetemp, bs = "cr") + s(ratio,bs = "cr") #formula of gams coef(ozonea) # extract the coefficient of GAMs

GAMs in R : How to put the new data into the model?
I have 5 GAMs ( model1, model2, model3, model4 and model5) Before I use some data X(predictor -January to June data) to form a equation and calculate the expected value of Y (predictand -January to June). After variable selection, GAMs (Model 1)were bulit up! R-square :0.40 NOW, I want to use new X'( predictor -July - December data) and put into Model 1, then get the expected value of Y'

Relative GCV - poisson and negbin GAMs (mgcv)
I am using gam in mgcv (1.3-22) and trying to use gcv to help with model selection. However, I'm a little confused by the process of assessing GCV scores based on their magnitude (or on relative changes in magnitude). Differences in GCV scores often seem "obvious" with my poisson gams but with negative binomial, the decision seems less clear. My data represent a similar pattern as

GAMs and GAMMS with correlated acoustic data
Greetings This is a long email. I'm struggling with a data set comprising 2,278 hydroacoustic estimates of fish biomass density made along line transects in two lakes (lakes Michigan and Huron, three years in each lake). The data represent lakewide surveys in each year and each data point represents the estimate for a horizontal interval 1 km in length. I'm interested in comparing

Modifying the design matrix X in GAMS to suit data assimilation
I have a data assimilation problem that might be amenable to the use of GAMS, but I am not sure how feasible it is to implement. I was told the R mailing list was a great resource. My observations are spatiotemporal salinity in the San Francisco Bay at a number of instruments over a few days. The thing that I want to fit is the initial condition for a salt transport model at the beginning of this

interactions in GAMs
Hi all, I wonder if it's possible to include a double interaction in a GAM formula. Example: If I do this: mod=gam(energy~s(size, *by=color, by=sex*, k=5) + temperature, ...) I get the interaction betwen size*color and size*sex. But I need size*color*sex, being size a smoother. I've created a new variable (colorsex) which combines all the level of both color (2 levels) and sex (2

Comparing GAM objects using ANOVA
Hi, Is it possible to compare two GAM objects created with the gam() function from the mgcv package. I use a slightly modified version of anova.glm() named anova.gam(), modified from John Fox (2002). It often gives me some aberant responses, especially with "F" test. I use a quasibinomial model and scale (dispersion) is calculated and used in the calculation of the F value. Does someone

GAMs and survival data
Hello. I'm trying to analyze data, which is looking at the relationship between temperature and survival for fish (from fertilization to emergence). Looking at the raw data, there appears to be a bell shaped relationship. Ordinarily for survival data, I would run a generalized linear model (because the data has a binomial error structure). However, I am thinking that running a generalized

weights in GAMs (package mgcv)
Dear list, I?m using the ?mgcv? package to fit some GAMs. Some of my covariates are derived quantities and have an associated standard error, so I would like to incorporate this uncertainty into the GAM estimation process. Ideally, during the estimation process less importance would be given to observations whose covariates have high standard errors. The gam() function in the ?mgcv? package

GAMs
Hi I have been searching for goodness-of-fit tests (or lack of fit tests) for GAMs and cannot find anything. My problem is: after fitting a GAM to mortality data (smoothing crude estimated rates of mortality - a process called graduation in the actuarial literature), (1) how to assess the fit of the model with reference to "adherence to data" for the fitted model (I do not think the

interpretation of F-statistics in GAMs
dear listers, I use gam (from mgcv) for evaluation of shape and strength of relationships between a response variable and several predictors. How can I interpret the 'F' values viven in the GAM summary? Is it appropriate to treat them in a similar manner as the T-statistics in a linear model, i.e. larger values mean that this variable has a stronger impact than a variable with smaller F?

GAMS and Knots
Hi I was wondering if anyone knew how to work out the number of knots that should be applied to each variable when using gams in the mgcv library? Any help or references would be much appreciated. Thanks Kathryn Baldwin

autocorrelation in gams
Hi, I am looking at the effects of two explanatory variables on chlorophyll. The data are an annual time-series (so are autocorrelated) and the relationships are non-linear. I want to account for autocorrelation in my model. The model I am trying to use is this: Library(mgcv) gam1 <-gam(Chl~s(wintersecchi)+s(SST),family=gaussian, na.action=na.omit, correlation=corAR1(form =~

plotting gam models
Hi everybody, I am working with gams and I have found some questions when plotting gams models. I am using mgcv, and my model looks something like this: model<- gam(x ~ s(lat,long)) I can plot the output of the model using plot(model) or plot.gam(model) and I get a surface plot. That is ok, but what I want to do now is to extract the data used to perform the surface plot. Like that I

Help using smooth.spline with zoo object
Can someone please show me how to smooth time series data that I have in the form of a zoo object? I have a monthly economies series and all I really need is to see a less jagged line when I plot it. If I do something like s <- smooth.spline(d.zoo$Y, spar = 0.2) plot(predict(s,index(d.zoo)), xlab = "Year") # not defined for Date objects and if I do something like
