similar to: Problem with library "car"

Greetings to r-help land. I've run into some program crashes and I've traced them back to methods() behavior after the package gdata is loaded. I provide now a minimal re-producible example. This seems bugish to me. How about you? dat <- data.frame(x = rnorm(100), y = rnorm(100)) lm1 <- lm(y ~ x, data = dat) methods(class = "lm") ## OK so far library(gdata)

I've prepared preliminary versions of two packages that I plan eventually to contribute to CRAN: car (for "Companion to Applied Regression") is a package that provides a variety of functions in support of linear and generalized linear models, including regression diagnostics (e.g., studentized residuals, hat-values, Cook's distances, dfbeta, dfbetas, added-variable plots,

Am I asking for too much: for any object that a stat proc returns ( y <- lm( y~x) , etc ) ) , is there a super convenient function like give_all_extractors( y ) that lists all extractor functions , the datatype returned , and a text descriptor field ("pairwisepval" "lsmean" etc) That would just be so convenient. What are my options for querying an object so that I can

Hi there, I hope I can get advice regarding the calculation of leverage values or studentized residual values of a non-linear regression model. It seems like rstudent() does not work on a nls object. Many thanks in advance! Best regards, Xingli

Hi there, I have the problem, that I'm not able to reproduce the SPSS residual statistics (dfbeta and cook's distance) with a simple binary logistic regression model obtained in R via the glm-function. I tried the following: fit <- glm(y ~ x1 + x2 + x3, data, family=binomial) cooks.distance(fit) dfbetas(fit) When i compare the returned values with the values that I get in SPSS,

Hi, I've looked around but can't find a clear answer to the difference for these two? Any help? Thanks! -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/dfbetas-vs-dfbeta-tp26331704p26331704.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Hello. I want to get the proper influence function for the glm coefficients in R. This is supposed to be inv(information)*(y-yhat)*x. So I am wondering what is the exact mathematical formula for the output that the functions: dfbeta() OR lm.influence()$coefficients return for a glm model. I am confused because: 1. Their columns don't sum to zero as influences should. 2. They

I had a look at some influence measures, and it seems to me that currently several methods handle multiple lm (mlm) objects wrongly in R. In some cases there are separate "mlm" methods, but usually "mlm" objects are handled by the same methods as univariate "lm" methods, and in some cases this fails. There are two general patterns of problems in influence measures:

Hi, P-values in Durbin-Watson test obtained through the use of functions available in packages "lmtest" and "car" are different. The difference is quite significant. function "dwtest" in "lmtest" is much faster than "burbinwatson" in "car". Actually, you can take a nap while the latter trying to calculated Durbin-Watson test. My question

I'm trying to write some functions extending influence measures to multivariate linear models and also allow subsets of size m>=1 to be considered for deletion diagnostics. I'd like these to work roughly parallel to those functions for the univariate lm where only single case deletion (m=1) diagnostics are considered. Corresponding to stats::hatvalues.lm, the S3 method for class

I am struiggling a bit with this function 'hatvalues'. I would like a little more undrestanding than taking the black-box and using the values. I looked at the Fortran source and it is quite opaque to me. So I am asking for some help in understanding the theory. First, I take the simplest case of a single variant. For this I turn o John Fox's book, "Applied Regression Analysis

Hello: I am trying to understand the method 'hatvalues(...)', which returns something similar to the diagonals of the plain vanilla hat matrix [X(X'X)^(-1)X'], but not quite.  A Fortran programmer I am not, but tracing through the code it looks like perhaps some sort of correction based on the notion of 'leave-one-out' variance is being applied. Whatever the

Hello I am running a regression without the intercept, and want to compute dfbetas. How do I do this? The dfbetas function only works when the intercept is included in the model. Regards K [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I wonder if anybody could help me in converting this easy SAS program into R. (I'm still trying to do that!) PROC IMPORT OUT= WORK.CHLA_italian DATAFILE= "C:\Documents and Settings\carleal\My Documents\REBECCA\stat\sas\All&nutrients.xls" DBMS=EXCEL2000 REPLACE; GETNAMES=YES; RUN; data chla_italian; set chla_italian;

Hi all, In using the identify command, I get the following message > plot(hatvalues(scireg3)) > abline(h=.0154,lty=2) # plots a reference line at (k + 1)/n > identify(1:1165, hatvalues(scireg3),row.names(sciach)) Error in xy.coords(x, y) : 'x' and 'y' lengths differ which doesn't allow me to see the observation number when I scroll over with the mouse. What

I understand that the hat matrix is a function of the predictor variable alone. So, in the following example why do the values on the diagonal of the hat matrix change when I go from an unweighted fit to a weighted fit? Is the function hatvalues giving me something other than what I think it is? library(ISwR) data(thuesen) attach(thuesen) fit <- lm(short.velocity ~ blood.glucose)

Dear useRs, I have some trouble with the calculation of Cook's distance in R. The formula for Cook's distance can be found for example here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cook%27s_distance I tried to apply it in R: > y <- (1:400)^2 > x <- 1:100 > lm(y~x) -> linmod # just for the sake of a simple example >

Hi, I am using coxph with weights to represent sampling fraction of subjects. Our simulation results show that the robust SE of beta systematically under-estimate the empirical SD of beta. Does anyone know how the robust SE are estimated in coxph using weights? Is there any analytical formula for the “weighted” robust SE? Any help is appreciated! Thanks so much in advance Willy
