The locfit library is now available through CRAN, in the Contributed R Code directory. Locfit fits local regression, likelihood and density estimation models, in the spirit of loess but with many additional features. To install, unpack the locfit_19980309.tar.gz file, and R INSTALL locfit Most of the functionality and examples on my home page http://cm.bell-labs.com/stat/project/locfit/ should

Hi list, This was asked a couple of years ago but I can't find a resolution. Is there any way to get the coefficients from one of the local polynomial fits in locfit. I realize that locfit only constructs polynomials at a handful of intelligently selected points and uses interpolation to predict any other points. I would like to know the terms of the polynomials at these points. It seems

Hi, I'm trying to work through the examples and code in Loader's LOCAL REGRESSION AND LIKELIHOOD, and have run into a problem with the code for one sided smoothing and change point analysis (p. 110-112). The code, after loading locfit: midp<-(1945:1988)+0.5 fitl<-locfit(thickness~left(year), data=penny, alpha=c(0,10), deg=1, ev=midp)

I'm having difficulties with plot.locfit.3d, at least I think that is the problem. I have a large dataframe (about 4 MM cases) and was hoping to see a non-parametric estimate of the hazard plotted against two variables: > fit <- locfit(~surv.yr+ ur_protein + ur_creatinine, data=TRdta, cens = 1-death, family = "hazard", xlim=c(0,10)) # it took somewhere between 1 and 2

Dear R-users, One of the main reasons I moved from GAUSS to R (as an econometrician) was because of the existence of the library LOCFIT for local polynomial regression. While doing some checking between my former `GAUSS code' and my new `R code', I came to realize LOCFIT is not quite doing what I want. I wrote the following example script:

I am trying to reproduce Figure 10.5 of Loader's book: Local Regression and Likelihood. The code provided in the book does not seem to work. I have managed (a while ago) to get the accompanied R-code for the figures in the book (file called lffigs.R) from somewhere - cannot find it on the web anymore. The code in the .R script file does not work either. Could anybody please direct me in

I installed the locfit package under Linux (gcc 2.7.2). Installation was ok but > x <- runif(200) > y.compl <- 10*x*x*rgamma(200,3) > med.y <- median(y.compl) > cens <- ifelse(y.compl<=med.y,1,0) > y <- cens * y.compl + (1-cens)*med.y > library(locfit) > m <- locfit(y~x,cens=cens,family="gamma") /usr/local/src/R-0.61.1/bin/R.binary: can't

Hello, Here is a problem I have had trying to install locfit, the package for R. I have already contacted Clive Loader who thinks the problem has more to do with R than locfit, so here is the point : The version of R I am currently running is R-base-0.90 that I installed using the R-base-0.90.1-1.i386.rpm package. I dowloaded the locfit package available at the CRAN site and ran : R INSTALL

Hi All, In another thread Andy Liaw, who CRAN lists as locfit maintainer; said: <quote> From: "Liaw, Andy" <andy_liaw at merck.com> To: "Guy Green" <guygreen at netvigator.com>; <r-help at r-project.org> Subject: Re: Alternatives to linear regression with multiple variables Date: 22 February 2010 17:50 You can try the locfit package, which I believe

Hello!!! I'm just a beginner of R. I work with locfit to get the density from an numeric vector. It looks good when I plot the graph, but I need the output data of locfit. For example I need somthing like that (only integer values for the input): numeric vector (input of locfit) density (output of locfit) 1 0.05.... 2 0.04.. 3 0.01 ... Thank you for your help and your time.

Dear R users, i am using locfit package developed by loader in R software, my problem is that as i am doing independont forecast using locfit object , i am able to do independont forecast for more than one years simultaniously. But when i am doing one year forecast(single) this code is giving following error... "Warning message: 'newdata' had 1 rows but variable(s) found have 24

Hello there, I am presently using the locfit package in "R" and would appreciate some help here. Could anyone tell me tell me how I can obtain the various components (x and y values)of the density estimation after using the "R" command "locfit"? For example, with the command "fhat<-density(somename)" I can obtain the x and y values by simply calling

Dear R-devel, I'm working on Prof. Loader's new version of locfit to try to get it pass R CMD check. I'm almost there, but I have a problem with some Rd files that I hope some one can help me resolve. Here's an example: In the package there's a function called locfit.censor(). This function can be used in a few different ways: locfit.censor(x, y, cens, ...)

Dear, I am doing some statistics analysis using R software. I am currently trying to implement your library locfit. I am using Win NT and R1.1.1 version obtained on the following Webmaster : http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/ms/departments/sia/project/locfit/index.html When trying to run it, the following message appears: ********** Error in .C("guessnv", nvm = integer(1), ncm =

Dear memberships, I'm trying to estimate the following multivariate local regression model using the "locfit" package: BMI=m1(RCC)+m2(WCC) where (m1) and (m2) are unknown smooth functions. My problem is that once I get the regression done I cannot get the fitted values of each of this smooth functions (m1) and (m2). What I write is the following library(locfit) data(ais)

Dear all, after building the R-1.1.1 from source on our alpha everything seems to work, but locfit still hangs... I installed locfit with install.packages(...), the installation process went fine, but calling locfit() blocks the R environment. Has anybody got an idea howto get to the roots of this problem? Thanks M. Eger -- +------------------------------------------------------- | Marcus

Dear R experts, We've been playing with the locfit package and are experiencing a problem I am hoping for some help on. We have a dataset of 13k points, one dimension of which is "judgment", either 0 or 1, and the other "score", an arbitrary scalar (in this case it's between .65 and .85). We use

I have a problem with the use of locfit with censured data, when I carry out locfit by: fitbmt<-locfit(~recur,data=BMTAGE11,cens=df.status,family="hazard",alpha=0.5) it does not give me any message, but if I want to obtain the graph or even if I ask for (fitbmt) made it gives me the following message: > fitbmt31 Problem: Object "fitbmt31" not found, while calling

Dear list members, I am trying to understand this output from the smoothing package locfit (1.5-4, running on R 2.8.1 on Windows Vista 64 bit). # sample code x<-1:100 y<-rnorm(100) fit<-locfit(y~x,family="gaussian") #default parameters are fine plot(fit,band="global") #plot seems "reasonable", confidence bands use a global estimate of variance
