similar to: mgcv::gamm error when combining random smooths and correlation/autoregressive term

Hello, I am trying to fit a gamm (package mgcv) model with a smooth term, a linear term, and an interaction between the two. The reason I am using gamm rather than gam is that there are repeated measures in time (which is the smooth term x1), so I am including an AR1 autocorrelation term. The model I have so far ended up with is of the type gamm(y ~ s(x1) + s(x1, by=x2), correlation =

Dear R users, I am trying to use "gamm" from package "mgcv" to model results from a mesocosm experiment. My model is of type M1 <- gamm(Resp ~ s(Day, k=8) + s(Day, by=C, k=8) + Flow + offset(LogVol), data=MyResp, correlation = corAR1(form= ~ Day|Mesocosm), family=poisson(link=log)) where the response variable is counts, offset by the

Hello, I have two gamm question (I am using gamm in mgcv). 1. In have, say 5 time series. Monthly data, 20 year. The 5 time series are from 5 stations. The data are in vectors, so I have fitted something along the lines of: tmp<-gamm(Y ~ s(Year,by=station1)+s(Year,by=station2)+ s(Year,by=station3)+s(Year,by=station4)+

Dear R-helpers, I'd like to understand how to test the statistical significance of a random effect in gamm. I am using gamm because I want to test a model with an AR(1) error structure, and it is my understanding neither gam nor gamm4 will do the latter. The data set includes nine short interrupted time series (single case designs in education, sometimes called N-of-1 trials in medicine)

In the summary of the gam object produced by gamm, the "Approximate significance of smooth terms" appears to be a test of the improvement in fit over a linear model, rather than a test of the significance of the overall effect of x on y: test.gamm<-gamm(y~te(x, bs="cr"), random=list(grp=~1)) summary(test.gamm$gam) . . . Approximate significance of smooth terms:

Dear useRs, I am using the gamm function in the mgcv package to model a smooth relationship between a covariate and my dependent variable, while allowing for quantification of the subjectwise variability in the smooths. What I would like to do is to make subjectwise predictions for plotting purposes which account for the random smooth components of the fit. An example. (sessionInfo() is at

Dear R users, I have repeated measurements on individuals. I want to estimate the time-varying effect of a factor variable X (taking three levels), e.g. a model in the spirit of Hastie and Tibshirani (1993). I am considering using the package "mgvc" which implements generalized additive models, especially the function gamm, which estimates generalized additive mixed models, and thus,

Dear users I am fitting a Generalized Additive Mixed Models (gamm) model to establish possible relationship between explanatory variables (water temperature, dissolved oxygen and chlorophyll) and zooplankton data collected in the inner and outer estuarine waters. I am using monthly time-series which are auto-correlated. In the case of the inner waters, I have applied satisfactoryly (by

Hi, I was reading the book on "Mixed Effects Models and Extensions in Ecology with R" by Zuur et al. In Section 6.2, an example is discussed where a gamm-model is fitted, with a smoother for time, which differs for each value of ID (4 different bird species). In earlier versions of R, the following code was used BM2<-gamm(Birds~Rain+ID+

Dear All Hopefully someone out there can point out what I am missing! I have a (large, several hundred) dataset of gardens in which over two years the presence/absence of a particular bird species is noted each week. I have good reason to believe there is a difference between the two years in the weekly proportion of gardens and would like to assess this, before going on to look in more detail at

HELLO ALL, I AM GETTING AN ERROR MESSAGE WHEN TRYING TO RUN A GAMM MODEL LIKE THE ONE BELOW. I AM USING R VERSION 2.14.1 (2011-12-22) AND MGCV 1.7-12. M1 <-gamm(DepVar ~ Treatment + s(Year, by =Treatment), random=list(Block=~1), na.action=na.omit, data = mydata, correlation = corARMA(form =~ Year|Treatment, p = 1, q = 0)) THIS IS THE ERROR MESSAGE Error in `*tmp*`[[k]] : attempt to

Hello, I am having some difficulty converting my gam code to a correct gamm code, and I'm really hoping someone will be able to help me. I was previously using this script for my overdispersed gam data: M30 <-gam(efuscus~s(mic, k=7) +temp +s(date)+s(For3k, k=7) + pressure+ humidity, family=negbin(c(1,10)), data=efuscus) My gam.check gave me the attached result. In order to

I'd like to compare tests based on the mixed model representation of additive models, testing among others y=f(x1)+f(x2) vs y=f(x1)+f(x2)+f(x1,x2) (testing for additivity) In mixed model representation, where X represents the unpenalized part of the spline functions and Z the "wiggly" parts, this would be: y=X%*%beta+ Z_1%*%b_1+ Z_2%*%b_2 vs y=X%*%beta+ Z_1%*%b_1+ Z_2%*%b_2 + Z_12

Dear everyone, I'm encountering an unknown error message when using gamm function: > fitoutput <- gamm(cvd~as.factor(dow)+pm10+s(time,bs="cr",k=15,fx=TRUE)+s(tmean,bs="cr",k=7,fx=TRUE) + ,correlation=corAR1(form=~1|city),family=poisson,random=list(city=~pm10),data=mimp) Maximum number of PQL iterations: 20 iteration 1 iteration 2 iteration 3 iteration 4

Hi, I've been using gamm4 to build GAMMs for exploring environmental influences on genetic ancestry. Things have gone well and I have 2 very straightforward questions: 1. I've used method=REML. Am I correct that this is an alternative method for estimating the smooth functions in GAMMs rather than GCV that is often used for GAMs? I've read up on REML and it makes sense, but I'm

Hello, I have a response variable that is a time series of 0's and 1's. And a couple of continous explanatory variables. I would like to fit a gamm with auto-correlation and binomial distribution using gamm in mgcv. Something simple like: tmp<-gamm(y ~ s(x), correlation=corAR1(), binomial) However, I read in various messages on this newsgroup that glmmPQL (used

Hi list, I'm working with gamm models of this sort, using Simon Wood's mgcv library: gm<- gamm(Z~te(x,y),data=DATA,random=list(Group=~1)) gm1<-gamm(Z~te(x,y,by=Factor)+Factor,data=DATA,random=list(Group=~1)) with a dataset of about 70000 rows and 110 levels for Group in order to test whether tensor product smooths vary across factor levels. I was wondering if comparing those two

Dear R-users, To obtain the percentage of deviance explained when fitting a gam model using the mgcv library is straightforward: summary(object.gam) $dev.expl or alternatively, using the deviance (deviance(object.gam)) of the null and the fitted models, and then using 1 minus the quotient of deviances. However, when a gamm (generalizad aditive mixed model) is fitted, the

Hi I am an engineer and am running the package mgcv and specifically the command gamm (generalized additive mixed modelling), with random effects. i have a few queries: 1. When I run the command with 1000/2000 observations, it runs ok. However, I would like to see the results as in vis.gam command in the same package, with the 3-d visuals. It appears no such option is available for gamm in the

Hi R-users, I'm using R 2.11.1, mgcv 1.6-2 to fit a generalized additive mixed model. I'm new to this package...and just got more and more problems... 1. Can I include correlation and/or random effect into gam( ) also? or only gamm( ) could be used? 2. I want to estimate the smoothing function s(x) under each level of treatment. i.e. different s(x) in each level of treatment. shall I
