Doug, I have been attempting to learn a little bit about nlme without too much documentation except the online help. The Latex file in the nlme directory looks interesting but uses packages that I do not have so that I have not been able to read it. I have run the example from gnls to compare it with the results I get from my libraries (code below - I have not included output as it is rather

An executable version 0.6 of my libraries is now available at www.luc.ac.be/~jlindsey/rcode.html This works with MS R0.64.2 and appears possibly to work with R65.0. There is a serious problem with the Fortran compiler as some of the examples for elliptic and carma crash it. These same examples do not crash R63.0 with the library executables of Jan 99. I am releasing this anyway because of the

Dear All, I've come across a problem in predict.lme. Assigning a model formula to a variable and then using this variable in lme (instead of typing the formula into the formula part of lme) works as expect. However, when performing a predict on the fitted model I gan an error messag - predict.lme (but not predictlm) seems to expect a 'properly' typed in formula and a cannot extract

Dear Douglas Bates. I just downloaded the compiled version (I'm a poor Windows devil, not yet having found the time to move to a more advanced platform...) from NT- the files are dated 30.5-1999 so they are not old - and the problem persisted....wonder what I did wrong ?

Hi, I'm having some problems regarding the packages lme4 and nlme, more specifically in the denominator degrees of freedom. I used data Orthodont for the two packages. The commands used are below. require(nlme) data(Orthodont) fm1<-lme(distance~age+ Sex, data=Orthodont,random=~1|Subject, method="REML") anova(fm1) numDF DenDF F-value p-value (Intercept) 1

Using formulas constructed from strings only partially works for me in lme: library(nlme) data(Orthodont) fm2<-lme(as.formula("distance~age"),data=Orthodont,random=~1|Subject) summary(fm2) # works augPred(fm2) # fails #Error in inherits(object, "formula") : #Argument "object" is missing, with no default I assume that my use of as.formula is wrong, but

Hi everyone, I have a quick and probably easy question about lme for this list. Say, for instance you want to model growth in pituitary distance as a function of age in the Orthodont dataset. fm1 = lme(distance ~ I(age-8), random = ~ 1 + I(age-8) | Subject, data = Orthodont) You notice that there is substantial variability in the intercepts (initial distance) for people at 8 years, and that

Dear all, I noticed the following in the call of lme using msVerbose. fm1 <- lme(distance ~ age, data = Orthodont, control = lmeControl(msVerbose=T)) 9 318.073: -0.567886 0.152479 1.98021 10 318.073: -0.567191 0.152472 1.98009 11 318.073: -0.567208 0.152473 1.98010 fm2 <- lme(distance ~ age, random =~age, data = Orthodont,

I am trying to estimate models with subsets using the NLME package. However, I am getting an error in the case below (among others): > subset <- c(rep(TRUE, 107), FALSE) > fm2 <- lme(distance ~ age + Sex, data = Orthodont, random = ~ 1, subset=subset) Error in xj[i] : invalid subscript type 'closure' > fm2 <- lme(distance ~ age + Sex, data = Orthodont, random = ~ 1,

Hi, Excuse me for asking this silly question. But I really couldn't understand why cov() and ccov() don't work for my calculation of covariance matrix. a <- matrix(1:8, 2, 4) a [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [1,] 1 3 5 7 [2,] 2 4 6 8 > ccov(a) Error in solve.default(cov, ...) : Lapack routine dgesv: system is exactly singular I also tried colume bind, but it

Dear friends. I tried the session below with 10 MB in both vsize and nsize but didn't get the example work. Is this a problem in LME or in me or both or somewhere else or undefined ?

I have a question regarding bootstrap coverage. I am trying to understand the benefits of using the bootstrap for small sample sets. To do this I created a normal population and then picked 10 from the populations and applied both traditional statistical methods and the Bootstrap (bcanon, 5000 bootstrap samples) to calculate a 95% confidence interval of on the mean. I saved the width of the

Hi, I have a string that I want to use in a variable call. How can I remove the quotes and/or the string properties of the string to use it in a variable call? Here's an example: library(lme) fm2 <- lme(distance ~ age, data = Orthodont, random = ~ 1) summary(fm2) I want to update the above regression to include new predictors according to what is in a string: predictors <-

Dear all, I've stumbled a similar issue with the package cluster when compiling the 3.4.0 version with the settings of Fedora RPM specs. Compiling R with the default setting of configure yields a version that works for cluster... and nlme. I did not find the exact option that was the cause of this issue but I'm willing to help.

Dear R developers, first of all let me join the chorus of congratulations for the release of R 1.0.0. Well, done! Unfortunately, I find it necessary to e-mail in a bug report regarding the `nlme' package. On my office machine I experience the following trouble: bossiaea:/opt/R$ R CMD check -c nlme Checking package `nlme' ... Massaging examples into `nlme-Ex.R' ... Running

lme() and gls() models from the nlme package are all crashing with R.3.4.0. Identical code ran correctly, without error in R 3.3.3 and earlier versions. The behavior is easily demonstrated using one of the examples form the lme() help file, along with two simple variants. I have commented the errors generated by these calls, as well as the lines of code generating them, in the code example below.

Hi, 1/ I wonder why a anova.lme on a single lme object does not print the sum of squares (as expected from the help: "a data frame with the sums of squares, numerator degrees of freedom, denominator degrees of freedom, F-values, and P-values"). Example: > fm2 <- lme(distance ~ age + Sex, data = Orthodont, random = ~ 1) > anova(fm2) numDF denDF F-value p-value

Dear list members, how can multiple imputation realized for anova tables in R? Concretely, how to combine F-values and R^2, R^2_adjusted from multiple imputations in R? Of course, the point estimates can be averaged, but how to get standarderrors for F-values/R^2 etc. in R? For linear models, lm.mids() works well, but according to Rubins rules, standard errors have to be used together with
