What??s happening with this following code: require(sem) Celpe.Mod.RAM <- matrix(c( # path parametro Inicio "Produ????o -> T1", "gamma.11", NA, "Produ????o -> T2", "gamma.12", NA,

Hello. I am attempting to duplicate a negative binomial regression in R. SAS uses generalized estimating equations for model fitting in the GENMOD procedure. proc genmod data=mydata (where=(gender='F')); by agegroup; class id gender type; model count = var1 var2 var3 /dist=NB link=log offset=lregtm; repeated subject=id /type=exch; run; Since my dataset has several observations for

Dear list members, In re-running with GLMM() from the lme4 package a generalized-linear mixed model that I had previously fit with glmmPQL() from MASS, I'm getting a warning of a convergence failure, even when I set the method argument of GLMM() to "PQL": > bang.mod.1 <- glmmPQL(contraception ~ as.factor(children) + cage + urban, + random=~as.factor(children) + cage +

I am trying to run a GLMM on some binomial data. My fixed factors include 2 dichotomous variables, day, and distance. When I run the model: modelA<-glmmPQL(Leaving~Trial*Day*Dist,random=~1|Indiv,family="binomial") I get the error: iteration 1 Error in MEEM(object, conLin, control$niterEM) : Singularity in backsolve at level 0, block 1 >From looking at previous help

Hello all R-user I am relative new to the R-environment and also to GLMM, so please don't be irritated if some questions don't make sense. I am using R 2.0.0 on Windows 2000. I investigated the occurrence of insects (count) in different parts of different plants (plantid) and recorded as well some characteristics of the plant parts (e.g. thickness). It is an unbalanced design with 21

I am trying to use the LME package to run a multilevel logistic model using the following code: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------- Model1 = GLMM(WEAP ~ TSRAT2 , random = ~1 | GROUP , family = binomial, na.action = na.omit ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------

I need capabilities, for my data analysis, like the Pinheiro & Bates S-Plus/R package nlme() but with binomial family and logit link. I need multiple crossed, possibly interacting fixed effects (age cohort of twin when entered study, sex of twin, sampling method used to acquire twin pair, and twin zygosity), a couple of random effects other than the cluster variable, and the ability to

Hello, I have a problem concerning estimation of GLMM. I used methods from 3 different packages (see program). I would expect similar results for glmm and glmmML. The result differ in the estimated standard errors, however. I compared the results to MASS, 4th ed., p. 297. The results from glmmML resemble the given result for 'Numerical integration', but glmm output differs. For the

Despite lots of investigation, I haven't found any R packages might be suitable for the following problem. I'd be very grateful for suggestions. I have three-way nested data, with a series of measures (obs) taken in quick succession (equal time spacing) from each subject on different days. The measures taken on the same day are temporally correlated, so I'd like to use an AR1

Dear R-list, I try to adjust GLMM on incidence cancer data. Without random effect, in GLM the command is, for example with sex effect, glm(Observed~sex+offset(log(Expected)),family=poisson) because the observed are Poisson distribued with parameter Expected*incidence rate. But know I want to introduce random effect (for example spatial effect) and it seems to me that the "offset" does

Hello, I'm using GLMM on the pscl package and i'm not getting the AIC on the summary. The code i'm using is (example) : mmall3 <-glmmPQL(allclues ~ cycloc + male, data=dados, family=poisson, random=~1|animal/idfid) and the results: Linear mixed-effects model fit by maximum likelihood Data: dados AIC BIC logLik NA NA NA Random effects: Formula: ~1 | animal

Hi again. Perhaps a simple question this time.... I am analysing data with a dependent variable of insect counts, a fixed effect of site and two random effects, day, which is the same set of 10 days for each site, and then transect, which is nested within site (5 each). I am trying to fit the cross classified model using GLMM in lme4. I have, for potential use, created a second coding

A while ago (April 2002) there was a short thread on software for generalized linear mixed models. Since that time, has anyone written or found R code to use a glmm to analyze binomial data? I study CWD in white-tailed deer, and I'd like to do a similar analysis as Kleinschmidt et al. (2001, Am. J. Epidemiology 153: 1213-1221) used to assess control for spatial structure in malaria

Hello, I would like to fit generalized linear mixed models but I did not find the package allowing such procedure. R help under nlme package gives me "glmmPQL(MASS)" but this file does not appear in contributed packages. Thanks in advance for your answer.

Hi there Please excuse this elementary question, but I have been fumbling with this for hours and can't seem to get it right. I have a nested anova, with random factor "lakefac" nested within factor "fishfac" (fixed), with an additional fixed factor "Habfac". If I consider everything as fixed effects, it's addmittedly not the correct model, but I can at

Hello everyone I am trying to fit an ordered probit/logit model for bank rating prediction. Besides polr() in MASS package which is not written especially for this as far as I know, do you know how else I can do this? I already found the modified polr () version on the Valentin STANESCU Enrst and Young Tel. 402 4000 ---------------------------------------------------------- The information

Dear list, I am having some problems with extracting Variance Components from a random-effects model: I am running a simple random-effects model using lme: model<-lme(y~1,random=~1|groupA/groupB) which returns the output for the StdDev of the Random effects, and model AIC etc as expected. Until yesterday I was using R v. 2.0, and had no problem in calling the variance components of the

Dear all, I have tried to calculate a GLMM fit with lmer (lme4) and glmmPQL (MASS), I also used glm for comparison. I am getting very different results from different functions, and I suspect that the problem is with our dataset rather than the functions, but I would appreciate help in deciding whether my suspicions are right. If indeed we are attempting the wrong type of analysis, some

Dear all, I want to evaluate several generalized linear mixed models, including the null model, and select the best approximating one. I have tried glmmPQL (MASS library) and GLMM (lme4) to fit the models. Both result in similar parameter estimates but fairly different likelihood estimates. My questions: 1- Is it correct to calculate AIC for comparing my models, given that they use

Greetings, May you please suggest a package or function to use for fitting a GLMM (generalized linear mixed model) with spatially correlated random effects? Thank you, Elijah DePalma [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
