similar to: problem with predict() for gam() models

Hello I'm using function gam from package mgcv to fit splines. ?When I try to make a prediction slightly beyond the original 'x' range, I get this error: > A = runif(50,1,149) > B = sqrt(A) + rnorm(50) > range(A) [1] 3.289136 145.342961 > > > fit1 = gam(B ~ s(A, bs="ps"), outer.ok=TRUE) > predict(fit1, newdata=data.frame(A=149.9), outer.ok=TRUE) Error

I am struggling to get GAM model predictions from the top models calculated using model.avg in the package "MuMIn". My model looks something like the following: gamp <- gam(log10(y)~s(x1,bs="tp",k=3)+s(x2,bs="tp",k=3)+ s(x3,bs="tp",k=3)+s(x4,bs="tp",k=3)+s(x5,bs="tp",k=3)+ s(x6,bs="tp",k=3)+x7,data=dat,

Sometimes, for specific models, I get this error from predict.gam in library mgcv: Error in complete.cases(object) : negative length vectors are not allowed Here's an example: model.calibrate <- gam(meansalesw ~ s(tscore,bs="cs",k=4), data=toplot, weights=weight, gam.method="perf.magic") > test <- predict(model.calibrate,newdata) Error in

Hello everyone. I am doing a logistic gam (package mgcv) on a pretty large dataframe (130.000 cases with 100 variables). Because of that, the gam is fitted on a random subset of 10000. Now when I want to predict the values for the rest of the data, I get the following error: > gam.basis_alleakti.1.pr=predict(gam.basis_alleakti.1, +

Recently I was using GAM and couldn't help noticing the following incoherence in prediction: > data(gam.data) > data(gam.newdata) > gam.object <- gam(y ~ s(x,6) + z, data=gam.data) > predict(gam.object)[1] 1 0.8017407 > predict(gam.object,data.frame(x=gam.data$x[1],z=gam.data$z[1])) 1 0.1668452 I would expect that using two types of predict arguments

Hi all, I try to interpolate a data set in the form: time Erg 0.000000 48.650000 1.500000 56.080000 3.000000 38.330000 4.500000 49.650000 6.000000 61.390000 7.500000 51.250000 9.000000 50.450000 10.500000 55.110000 12.000000 61.120000 18.000000 61.260000 24.000000 62.670000 36.000000 63.670000 48.000000 74.880000 I want to get smoothed splines by using the class gam The first way I tried , was

Dear list, I'm currently trying to use the rms package to get predicted ordinal responses from a conditional ratio model. As you will see below, my model seems to fit well to the data, however, I'm having trouble getting predicted mean (or fitted) ordinal response values using the predict function. I have a feeling I'm missing something simple, however I haven't been able to

Hello fellow R users, I would need your help on GAM/GAMM models and interpolation on a marked spatial point process (cases and controls). I use the mgcv package to fit a GAMM model with a binary outcome, a parametric part (var1+..+varn), a spline used for the spatial variation, and a random effect coded through another spline in this form: gam(outcome~var1+.+varn+s(xlong+ylat)+s(var,

As I understand it,  predict.lm(l ,newdata=nd ,interval="confidence") yields confidence bands for the predicted mean of new observations and lm.predict(l ,newdata=nd ,interval="prediction") yields confidence bands for new observations themselves, given an lm object l.   However with regard to {mgcv} although  predict.gam (g ,se.fit=TRUE ,interval= "prediction")

Dear, I am trying to get a prediction of my GAM on a response type. So that I eventually get plots with the correct values on my ylab. I have been able to get some of my GAM's working with the example shown below: * model1<-gam(nsdall ~ s(jdaylitr2), data=datansd) newd1 <- data.frame(jdaylitr2=(244:304)) pred1 <- predict.gam(model1,newd1,type="response")* The problem I am

I am fitting a two dimensional smoother in gam, say junk = gam(y~s(x1,x2)), to a response variable y that is always positive and pretty well behaved, both x1 and x2 are contained within [0,1]. I then create a new dataset for prediction with values of (x1,x2) within the range of the original data. predict(junk,newdata,type="response") My predicted values are a bit strange

Hi, I have used package quantreg to estimate a non-linear fit to the lowest part of my data points. It works great, by the way. But I'd like to extract the predicted values. The help for predict.qss1 indicates this: predict.qss1(object, newdata, ...) and states that newdata is a data frame describing the observations at which prediction is to be made. I used the same technique I used

Hello all, Thank you for the previous assistance I received from this listserve! My current question is: How can I create an appropriate matrix of values from a GAM (actually a GAMM) to make a 3-D plot? This model is fit as a tensor product spline of two predictors and I have used it to make specific predictions by calling:

I'm looking for the best way to do the following: run a set of GAM models, and then make predictions with new data. My problem is the size of the gam model object, I would like to strip it down to the bare minimum of information needed to apply the model to new data. For example, if this were a linear model, I would just keep the betas. If this were an ordinary spline fit, I think I

Hello, Is it possible to estimate prediction interval using GAM? I looked through ?gam, ?predict.gam etc and the mgcv.pdf Simon Wood. I found it can calculate confidence interval but not clear if I can get it to calculate prediction interval. I read "Inference for GAMs is difficult and somewhat contentious." in Kuhnert and Venable An Introduction to R, and wondering why and if that

Dear all, I'm a fairly new R user having two questions regarding gam: 1. The prediction example on p. 38 in the mgcv manual. In order to get predictions based on the original data set, by leaving out the 'newdata' argument ("newd" in the example), I get an error message "Warning message: the condition has length > 1 and only the first element will be used in: if

This is in regards to the suggested use of type="lpmatrix" in the documentation for mgcv::predict.gam. Could one not get the same result more simply by using type="terms" and interpolating each term directly? What is the advantage of the lpmatrix approach for prediction outside R? Thanks. -- View this message in context:

Hi, I'm using a loop to evaluate several models by taking adjacent variables from my dataframe. When i try to get predictions for new values, i get an error message about a missing variable in my new dataframe. Below is an example adapted from ?gam in mgcv package library(mgcv) set.seed(0) n<-400 sig<-2 x0 <- runif(n, 0, 1) x1 <- runif(n, 0, 1) x2 <- runif(n, 0, 1) x3 <-

Hi everybody, I am trying to fit a GAM model without intercept using library mgcv. However, the result has nothing to do with the observed data. In fact the predicted points are far from the predicted points obtained from the model with intercept. For example: #First I generate some simulated data: library(mgcv) x<-seq(0,10,length=100) y<-x^2+rnorm(100) #then I fit a gam model with

Dear R-help list, I?m using the mgcv package to plot predictions based on the gam function. I predict the chance of being a (frequent) participant at theater plays vs. not being a participant by age. Because my outcome variable is dichotomous, I use the binomial family with logit link function. Dataset in attachment, code to read it in R: data <- read.spss("pas_r.sav") attach(data)
