similar to: specifying values in correlation matrix in nlme

I'm using R 1.7.0 on linux. With this version of R the package modreg is automatically loaded at start of session. However attempting to use predict.smooth.spline() produces Error: couldn't find function predict.smooth.spline. The function smooth.spline() is OK. What am I missing? ====================================== I.White ICAPB, University of Edinburgh Ashworth Laboratories, West

Apologies if this is this too obscure for R-help. In package splines, ns(x,,knots,intercept=TRUE) produces an n by K+2 matrix N, the values of K+2 basis functions for the natural splines with K (internal) knots, evaluated at x. It does this by first generating an n by K+4 matrix B of unconstrained splines, then postmultiplying B by H, a K+4 by K+2 representation of the nullspace of C (2 by K+4),

Can anyone explain why with latest version of R (2.0.1) on FC3, installed from R-2.0.1-0.fdr.2.fc3.i386.rpm, update.packages() produces the message /usr/lib/R/bin/Rcmd exec: INSTALL: not found. Indeed /usr/lib/R/bin seems to lack various shell scripts (INSTALL, REMOVE, etc). ====================================== I.White University of Edinburgh Ashworth Laboratories, West Mains Road Edinburgh

Hi all, I've searched threads and read up on some ways of doing this but I'm having a hard time to get it to work. Here's my basic problem. I have the following linear mixed model y = Xb+Zu+e where u~N(0,s^2*K) where K is a matrix. I read a thread that basically suggested to decompose Zu into ZPD^(1/2) D^(-1/2)P'u so that (D^(-1/2)P'u)~N(0,s'^2I) but I'm not sure

I want to make a stacked bar plot with one bar for two variables from my data "chir", the two variables have about 100 values like no, yes and na. I want to show how many no, yes and na they both have together with the stacked bar. I tried to melt these to variables first like this: melt1=melt(data_chir, measure.vars=c("N1_re", "N2_re"), var="zpd") but it

I am making the question clear.

Hi, R experts I am currently using lmekin() function in coxme package to fit a mixed effect model for family based genetic data. How can I extract the p value from a lmekin object? When I print the object in R console, I can see the p value and Z value are just over there. But I can not extract them by the coef() function. kinfit$coefficient$fixed (kinfit is the name of the lmekin object)

Hi,I use the 'lmekin' model of the 'kinship' package of R in order to estimate heritability. I want to estimate the confidence interval of the variance coefficient and so I should use a bootstrap simulation. The pedigree file has 1386 subjects so I create a kinship matrix [1386*1386].This is the code of R I use: kfit2 <- lmekin(IT~1+AGE +(1|ID), dati1,

I've moved nlme from Depends to Imports in my coxme package. However, a few of the examples for lmekin use one of the data sets from nlme. This is on purpose, to show how the results are the same and how they differ. If I use data(nlme::ergoStool) the data is not found, data(nlme:::ergoStool) does no better. If I add importFrom(nlme, "ergoStool") the error message is that

I'm having a problem rebuilding a package, new to me in R 2.15.0 (Linux) It hits all that contain the line \usepackage[pdftex]{graphics} and leads to the following when running R CMD check on the directory. (I do this often; a final run on the tar.gz file will happen before submission.) Since I float and resize my figures, removing the line is fatal in other ways.

Hi, You should look at Pinheiro and Bates (2000) Mixed-effects models in S and S-Plus. It describes how to format the correlation matrix to pass to functions lme and gls. Basically, the correlation matrix has to be one of the corStruct classes, probably corSymm for your example. So in the call to lme (or gls if you really have no random effects), use something like:

# Your mailer is set to "none" (default on Windows), # hence we cannot send the bug report directly from R. # Please copy the bug report (after finishing it) to # your favorite email program and send it to # # r-bugs@r-project.org # ###################################################### # The last line of following code produces a segmentation fault: x <- 1:10 f <- gl(5,2)

I am seeking for a method to calculate, given a fitted lme model and some data for a subject, the random effects predictors for this subject. I can only find predictors for the subjects used in creating the fit. Of course I could just add the subject and redo the fit. But I want to avoid just this refitting. Thanks for help wbk

Hello, Why the correlation between the random effects is negative? library(coxme) rats1 <- coxme(Surv(time, status) ~ (1|litter), rats) random.effects(rats1)[[1]] #one value for each of the 50 litters print(rats1) rats2 <- lmekin(time ~ (1|litter), rats) fixed.effects(rats2) random.effects(rats2)[[1]] #one value for each of the 50 litters print(rats2)

Hi My name is karthikeyan. I am using svm in R for my data set. my data set contain 60 finance ratio as variables and i want to classify into group of good and bad. I want to know how to do the crossvalidation for the svm . first i am doing modelling and i am predict and i am calculating the probabilities how can i do the cross validation and how can i plot the svm for this variables

The current coxme code has functions that depend on bdsmatrix and others that depend on Matrix, both those pacakges define S4 methods for diag. When loaded, the message appears: replacing previous import ?diag? when loading ?Matrix? Questions: 1. Do I need to worry about this? If so, what can I do about it? I suppose I could add an importFrom directive, but it will be a pain unless there

Hello everyone, I hope this is a fair enough question, but I don’t have access to a copy of Bates and Pinheiro. It is probably quite obvious but the answer might be of general interest. If I fit a fixed effect with an added quadratic term and then do it as an orthogonal polynomial using maximum likelihood I get the expected result- they have the same logLik.
