Windows R 1.8.0 hangs when Mem Usage >1.8GB
I have a loop that increases the size of an object after each iteration. When the Windows Task Manager shows "Mem Usage" about 1.8GB, the Rgui.exe process no longer responds. I use: "C:\Program Files\R\rw1080\bin\Rgui.exe" --max-mem-size=4000M --min-vsize=10M --max-vsize=3000M --min-nsize=500k --max-nsize=1000M I have a dual Xeon 2.8GHz processor box with 4GB of memory and

Do Users of Nonlinear Mixed Effects Models Know Whether Their Software Really Works?
Do Users of Nonlinear Mixed Effects Models Know Whether Their Software Really Works? Lesaffre et. al. (Appl. Statist. (2001) 50, Part3, pp 325-335) analyzed some simple clinical trials data using a logistic random effects model. Several packages and methods MIXOR, SAS NLMIXED were employed. They reported obtaining very different parameter estimates and P

Nonlinear Regression
Hello I followed the example in page 59, chapter 11 of the 'Introduction to R' manual. I entered my own x,y data. I used the least squares. My function has 5 parameters: p[1], p[2], p[3], p[4], p[5]. I plotted the x-y data. Then I used lines(spline(xfit,yfit)) to overlay best curves on the data while changing the parameters. My question is how do I calculate the residual sum of squares.

Nonlinear weighted least squares estimation
Hi there, I'm trying to fit a growth curve to some data and need to use a weighted least squares estimator to account for heteroscedasticity in the data. A weights argument is available in nls that would appear to be appropriate for this purpose, but it is listed as 'not yet implemented'. Is there another package which could implement this procedure? Regards, Robert Brown

'nls' and its arguments
Dear R experts! I'd to fit data by 'nls' with me-supplied function 'fcn'. 1) I'd like 'fcn' to accept arbitrary arguments, i.e. I defined it as f(...) {<body>}. (Ok, that's not actually impotant). 2) Second, I would NOT like to supply every parameter in the formula. To illustrate this, let's look at the last example of 'nls' help

conservative robust estimation in (nonlinear) mixed models
Conservative robust estimation methods do not appear to be currently available in the standard mixed model methods for R, where by conservative robust estimation I mean methods which work almost as well as the methods based on assumptions of normality when the assumption of normality *IS* satisfied. We are considering adding such a conservative robust estimation option for the random effects to

Nonlinear statistical modeling -- a comparison of R and AD Model Builder
There has recently been some discussion on the list about AD Model builder and the suitability of R for constructing the types of models used in fisheries management. https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2006-January/086841.html https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2006-January/086858.html I think that many R users understimate the numerical challenges that some of the typical

Weighted nls
Dear R Community, I am attempting to perform a weighted non-linear least squares fit. It has already been noted that the weights option is not yet implemented for the nls function, but no one seems to offer any suggestions for getting around this problem. I am still curious if a) anyone has code they have written which includes a weight options for nls, or b) if there is another model which

Robust Non-linear Regression
Hi, I'm trying to use Robust non-linear regression to fit dose response curves. Maybe I didnt look good enough, but I dind't find robust methods for NON linear regression implemented in R. A method that looked good to me but is unfortunately not (yet) implemented in R is described in http://www.graphpad.com/articles/RobustNonlinearRegression_files/frame.htm

How can I 'predict' from an nls model with a fit specified for separate groups?
Following an example on p 111 in 'Nonlinear Regression with R' by Ritz & Streibig, I have been fitting nls models using square brackets with the grouping variable inside. In their book is this example, in which 'state' is a factor indicating whether a treatment has been used or not: > Puromycin.m1 <- nls(rate ~ Vm[state] * + conc/(K[state] + conc), data = Puromycin,

Compiler options for Makefile.win
Dear all, For certain reasons I have to compile the source code of my package on Windows XP using Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0, thus I had to create a "Makefile.win". Now I have a question regarding compiler options /MT vs /MD for Makefile.win. The following partial output shows that when building my package on Windows XP using "R CMD build --binary xps" with compiler

Question when compiling source code with VC++
Dear Duncan, In your document "readme.packages.txt" you have a very helpful chapter on "Using Visual C++". Please allow me to ask you one question: Why do you propose the option "/MT" instead of option "/MD"? (To my knowledge usually option "/MD" is used when compiling programs with VC++.)

Dear Dirk, Yes, I know, however forget for one moment R. If I use tar independent of R it still should not create these hidden files. BTW, do you know where these hidden files are stored on the Mac?

Nonlinear robust regression
Hello, I would like to make a nonlinar fit (exactly the exponencial fit) to the data. But my data set is not ideal at all, so any robust method (such as LTS) would be bettre then LS. Could you advice me, please, if there is any R package or R function which provides the nonlinear robust regression? Thank you Eva Gelnarova
