similar to: BHHH algorithm

I am currently trying to find MLE of a function with four parameters. My codes run well but i don't get the results. I get the following message: BHHH maximisation Number of iterations: 0 Return code: 100 Initial value out of range. I don't know this is so because of the way i have written my loglikelihood or what. The loglikelihood LogLik<-function(param){ beta_1<-param[1]

Dear R users, I am new to R. I would like to find *maximum likelihood estimators for psi and alpha* based on the following *log likelihood function*, c is consumption data comprising 148 entries: fn<-function(c,psi,alpha) { s1<-sum(for(i in 1:n){(c[i]-(psi^(-1/alpha)*(lag(c[i],-1))))^2* (lag(c[i],-1)^((-2)*(alpha+1)) )}); s2<- sum(for(m in 1:n){log(lag(c[m],-1)^(((2)*alpha)+2))});

Have a look at ?optim. I don't think it has the BHHH algorithm as an option, though. =========================================== David Barron Jesus College University of Oxford -----Original Message----- From: r-help-bounces at stat.math.ethz.ch [mailto:r-help-bounces at stat.math.ethz.ch]On Behalf Of Harold Doran Sent: 10 July 2003 15:43 To: Fohr, Marc [AM]; R-help at stat.math.ethz.ch

Hello all, I have a problem estimating Random Effects model using censReg function. small part of code: UpC <- censReg(Power ~ Windspeed, left = -Inf, right = 2000,data=PData_In,method="BHHH",nGHQ = 4) Error in maxNRCompute(fn = logLikAttr, fnOrig = fn, gradOrig = grad, hessOrig = hess, : NA in the initial gradient ...then I tried to set starting values myself and here is

Hi, I have two sets of data that I would like to put into a data frame. But since they have different length, I am not sure how to do this. Here is an example of my data: data set one: date growth 1/1/2007 10 1/2/2007 10.2 1/3/2007 10.4 1/4/2007 10.6 data set two: date growth 1/1/2007 22 1/2/2007 22.5 1/4/2007 22.4 I would like to combine the two data sets and

Hello R community, I have been using R's inbuilt maximum likelihood functions, for the different methods (NR, BFGS, etc). I have figured out how to use all of them except the maxBHHH function. This one is different from the others as it requires an observation level gradient. I am using the following syntax: maxBHHH(logLik,grad=nuGradient,finalHessian="BHHH",start=prm,iterlim=2)

Hi, I was recently plowing through the docs of the quantreg package by Roger Koenker and came across the total variation penalty approach to 1-dimensional spline fitting. I googled around a bit and have found some papers originated in the image processing community, but (apart from Roger's papers) no paper that would discuss its statistical aspects. I have a couple of questions in this

Hi, I was wondering if there was an R package or routines for the Dantzig Selector (Candes & Tao, 2007). I know Emmanuel Candes has Matlab routines to do this but I was wondering if someone had ported those to R. Thanks, T ---Reference--- @article{candes2007dantzig, title={{The Dantzig selector: statistical estimation when p is much larger than n}}, author={Candes, E. and Tao, T.},

Dear list, this is not a particular R question but perhaps someone can help. I am running a maximum likelihood estimation (competing risk duration model with unobserved heterogeneity) on 30 different datasets. The problem is that on 2 datasets the model does not converge. I am interested if there are any methods, based on the gradients or (an approximation of) the hessian which helps to

Hi there, I am really new to statistics in R and statistics itself as well. My situation: I ran a lot of OLS regressions with different independent variables. (using the lm() function). After having done that, I know there is endogeneity due to omitted variables. (or perhaps due to any other reasons). And here comes the Hausman test. I know this test is used to identify endogeneity. But what I

Hello, I am trying to conduct a Hausman test to choose between FE estimators and RE estimators. When I try to run: library(plm) fixed <- plm(ROS ~ DiffClosenessC +ZZiele + AggSK + nRedundantStrecken + Degree + KantenGew + BetweennessC + SitzKappazitaet, data=Panel,index=c("id","time"),model="within") summary(fixed) fixef(fixed) random <-plm(ROS ~

Hi, I am trying to run a panel regression using 88 observations and 9 variables. In-built Hausman Test did not work, then I found a code for auxiliary regression method for the Hausman test. The panel models are: fe=plm(gd ~ l+g+o+c+g1+h+n+r, model = "within", data = new.frame,index = c("id")) re=plm(gd ~ l+g+o+c+g1+h+n+r, model = "random", data = new.frame,index =

Greetings, I'm playing aroung with the library and try to encode some PCM samples out of a WAVE file. I recognized that my own encoding is bigger than the encoding with the command line tool and I can't figure out why it is so. I tried some API functions to get a better result but I missed. minimal test code: http://stinfwww.informatik.uni-leipzig.de/~mai02cal/test.c example wav:

Hi, can anybody tell me how the Hausman test for endogenty works? I have a simulated model with three correlated predictors (X1-X3). I also have an instrument W for X1 Now I want to test for endogeneity of X1 (i.e., when I omit X2 and X3 from the equation). My current approach: library(systemfit) fit2sls <- systemfit(Y~X1,data=data,method="2SLS",inst=~W) fitOLS <-

Hi, everybody. I am working processing EEG data from 1000 pacients. I have a specific syntax to perform the Spectral Analysis and a loop to analyse all subjects. each subject data are in separate folders (P1, P2 P3...) My question is: in some cases, some errors can appear in one subject. I want to know if is possible to jump to the next subject and perform the same syntax , exibiting an error

UseRs, I want to do a bds.test but the function return this : > bds.test(erro.exp,m=15); Error in as.vector(x, mode = "double") : (list) object cannot be coerced to double How can I fix this problem? Thanks savano [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

UseR's, I run R on Red Hat linux 8. I did some graphics using: ps.options(paper="a4",horizontal=T,family="Times"); postscript(file="boxplotdistancia.eps"); boxplot(distancia); dev.off() How I change the font size? Thanks for helping. Savano

Oh Hi Arne, You may recall we visited with this before. I do not believe the problem is algorithm specific. The algorithms I use the most often are BFGS and BHHH (or maxBFGS and maxBHHH). For simple econometric models such as probit, Tobit, and evening sample selection models, old and new versions of R work equally well (I write my own programs and do not use ones from AER or sampleSekection).

Hi, I'm trying to write an LLVM backend using LLVM's retargetable code generator, and I'm confused about how the SelectionDAG works. Let me give you an example from the SPARC backend (as this is what is often mentioned in the documentation). This is how the "branch always" instruction is defined: def BA : BranchSP<0b1000, (ins brtarget:$dst),
