similar to: Import data set from another package?

I'm testing out a new version of coxme and R CMD check fails with "could not find function ranef" (or random.effects or fixef, or anything from nlme). The NAMESPACE file has the line below importFrom(nlme, ranef, random.effects, fixef, fixed.effects, VarCorr) and nlme is declared in the DESCRIPTION file as an import. I feel that I must be staring at some obvious (but

User of the coxme library (mixed effects Cox models) are instructed to use ranef(), fixed(), VarCorr(), etc to retrieve bits out of a fitted model; it purposely uses the same methods as nlme and/or lmer. The current behavior is to "depend" on nlme. If I defined the methods myself in coxme, then someone who had both nlme and coxme loaded will suffer from "last loaded wins",

The current coxme code has functions that depend on bdsmatrix and others that depend on Matrix, both those pacakges define S4 methods for diag. When loaded, the message appears: replacing previous import ?diag? when loading ?Matrix? Questions: 1. Do I need to worry about this? If so, what can I do about it? I suppose I could add an importFrom directive, but it will be a pain unless there

I'm having a problem rebuilding a package, new to me in R 2.15.0 (Linux) It hits all that contain the line \usepackage[pdftex]{graphics} and leads to the following when running R CMD check on the directory. (I do this often; a final run on the tar.gz file will happen before submission.) Since I float and resize my figures, removing the line is fatal in other ways.

I've finally narrowed down a puzzling problem: here is the short test case. tmt34% R --vanilla R version 2.10.0 (2009-10-26) Copyright (C) 2009 The R Foundation for Statistical Computing ISBN 3-900051-07-0 > temp <- matrix(runif(50), ncol=2) > t(temp) %*% temp [,1] [,2] [1,] 7.916016 6.049698 [2,] 6.049698 7.650694 > library(kinship) Loading required package:

The survival package uses a generalized cholesky decompostition throughout.? If A is a symmetric matrix A= LDL' where L is lower triangular with 1s on the diagonal, D is diagonal, and D[i,i] =0 if column i of A is redundant.? Being able to read the rank and dependencies directly off of D is very handy. The bdsmatrix package uses the same, but exposes it to the user as gchol and solve

Dear R experts; I am trying to extract the p values from a coxme object (package coxme). I can see the value in the model output, but I wanted to have the result with a higher number of decimal places. I have searched the mailing list and followed equivalent suggestions for nlme/lme objects, but I wasn't successful. Thanks; Catarina [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello, Why the correlation between the random effects is negative? library(coxme) rats1 <- coxme(Surv(time, status) ~ (1|litter), rats) random.effects(rats1)[[1]] #one value for each of the 50 litters print(rats1) rats2 <- lmekin(time ~ (1|litter), rats) fixed.effects(rats2) random.effects(rats2)[[1]] #one value for each of the 50 litters print(rats2)

Version 2.2 of coxme has been posted to CRAN, Windows versions and mirrors should appear in due course. This is a major update with three features of note: 1. A non-upwardly compatable change: Extractor functions: beta= fixed effects, b=random effects nlme lme4 coxme <2.2 coxme 2.2 lmekin 2.2 ------------------------------------------------------ beta

Hi all, I have a questions regarding mixed effects models: I'm trying to plot e.g. fitted vs residuals for each level of the random effects, and i'm getting the same error. I guess this might be a problem of the graphic capabilities of R. Is there any way to obtain those plots? library(nlme) attach(ergoStool) names(ergoStool) [1] "effort" "Type"

Hi, R experts I am currently using lmekin() function in coxme package to fit a mixed effect model for family based genetic data. How can I extract the p value from a lmekin object? When I print the object in R console, I can see the p value and Z value are just over there. But I can not extract them by the coef() function. kinfit$coefficient$fixed (kinfit is the name of the lmekin object)

The coxme package has a ranef() method, as does lme4. I'm having trouble getting them to play together, as shown below. (The particular model in the example isn't defensible, but uses a standard data set.) The problem is that most of the time only one of lme4 or coxme will be loaded, so each needs to define the basic ranef function as well as a method for it. But when loaded together

I am making the question clear.

R version 2.9.0 running on Centos (Red Hat linux). I have a pair of packages coxme and bdsmatrix. The latter is installed in my local library (I don't have permission for global install at work.) That is, it is in the location pointed to in R_LIBS_USER. In R, the command library(bdsmatrix) works fine. Coxme depends on bdsmatrix, in fact uses some cross-calls to it's C routines, which

I'm working on the next iteration of coxme. (Rather slowly during the summer). This is the most subtle code I've done in S, both mathematically and technically, and seems a perfect vehicle for the "literate programming" paradym of Knuth. The Sweave project is pointed at S output however, not source code. I would appreciate any pointers to an noweb type client that was

I've recently updated the coxme package, which calls internal routines from the bdsmatrix package.? (It is in fact mentioned as an example of this in the Extensions manual.) The call connections are a blocks like this, one for each of the 9 called C routines. void bdsmatrix_prod4(int nrow,??? int nblock,?? int *bsize, ??????????????????? double *bmat, double *rmat, ??????????????????? int

Using the "ergoStool" data cited in Mixed-Effects Models in S and S-PLUS by Pinheiro and Bates as an example, we have ======== > library(nlme) > fm <- lme(effort~Type-1, data=ergoStool, random=~1|Subject) > summary(fm) Linear mixed-effects model fit by REML Data: ergoStool AIC BIC logLik 133.1308 141.9252 -60.5654 Random effects: Formula: ~1 | Subject

Martyn, No, that didn't work. One other thing in the mix (which I don't think is the issue) is that I call one of the C-entry points of expm. So the DESCRIPTION file imports expm, the NAMESPACE file imports expm, and the init.c file is #include "R.h" #include "R_ext/Rdynload.h" /* Interface to expm package. */ typedef enum {Ward_2, Ward_1, Ward_buggy_octave}

Almost all of the coxme package and an increasing amount of the survival package are now written in noweb, i.e., .Rnw files. It would be nice to process these using the Sweave function + a special driver, which I can do using a modified version of Sweave. The primary change is to allow the following type of construction <<coxme>> coxme <- function(formula, data, subset, blah blah
