Dear List, After including cluster() option the coxreg (from eha package) produces results slightly different than that of coxph (from survival) in the following time-dependent treatment effect calculation (example is used just to make the point). Will appreciate any explaination / comment. cheers, Ehsan ############################ require(survival) require(eha) data(heart) # create weights

Dear R users, Could somebody please help me to find a way of comparing nonlinear, non-nested models in R, where the number of parameters is not necessarily different? Here is a sample (growth rates, y, as a function of internal substrate concentration, x): x <- c(0.52, 1.21, 1.45, 1.64, 1.89, 2.14, 2.47, 3.20, 4.47, 5.31, 6.48) y <- c(0.00, 0.35, 0.41, 0.49, 0.58, 0.61, 0.71, 0.83, 0.98,

Dear R-users, I have noticed small discrepencies in the reported estimate of the variance of the frailty by the print method for survreg() and the 'theta' component included in the object fit: # Examples in R-2.6.2 for Windows library(survival) # version 2.34-1 (2008-03-31) # discrepancy fit1 <- survreg(Surv(time, status) ~ rx + frailty(litter), rats) fit1 fit1$history[[1]]$theta

Dear all, I'm getting an error in one of the stock examples in the 'mvpart' package.

Folks, I am trying to get a loop to run which increments the object name as part of the loop. Here "fit1" "fit2" "fit3" and "fit4" are linear regression models that I have created. > for (ii in c(1:4)){ + SSE[ii]=rbind(anova(fit[ii])$"Sum Sq") + dfe[ii]=rbind(summary(fit[ii])$df) + } Error in anova(fit[ii]) : object 'fit' not found

Hi, I have a technical question about rpart: according to Breiman et al. 1984, different costs for misclassification in CART can be modelled either by means of modifying the loss matrix or by means of using different prior probabilities for the classes, which again should have the same effect as using different weights for the response classes. What I tried was this: library(rpart)

Dear all I try to refine my nlme models and with partial success. The model is refined and fitted (using Pinheiro/Bates book as a tutorial) but when I try to plot plot(augPred(fit4)) I obtain Error in predict.nlme(object, value[1:(nrow(value)/nL), , drop = FALSE], : Levels (0,3.5],(3.5,5],(5,7],(7,Inf] not allowed for vykon.fac > Is it due to the fact that I have unbalanced

Hello. I am fitting a two-level mixed model which assumes equality of variance in the lowest-level residuals across groups. The call is: fit3<-lme(CLnNAR~CLnRGR,data=meta.analysis, + na.action="na.omit",random=~1+CLnRGR|study.code) I want to test the assumption of equality of variances across groups at the lowest level. Can someone tell me how to do this? I know that one

Hello R users,  I am trying to obtain a direct adjusted survival curve. I am sending my whole code (see below). It's basically the larynx cancer data with Stage 1-4. I am using the cox model using coxph option, see the fit3 coxph. When I use the avg.surv option on fit3, I get the following error: "fits<-avg.surv(fit3, var.name="stage.fac", var.values=c(1,2,3,4), data=larynx)

Well, I would suggest using the code already in place in the survival package. Here is my code for your problem. I'm using a copy of the larynx data as found from the web resources for the Klein and Moeschberger book. larynx <- read.table("larynx.dat", skip=12, col.names=c("stage", "time", "age", "year",

Hello. One of my teaching assistants was experimenting and encountered unexpected behaviour with the lrtest function in the rms package. It appears that when you have a pair of non-nested models that employ an RCS, the error checking for non-nested models appears not to work. Here is a reproducible example. > library(rms) Loading required package: Hmisc Loading required package: lattice

Hi- I am trying to fit a log function to my data, with the ultimate goal of finding the second derivative of the function. However, I am stalled on the first step of fitting a curve. When I use the following code: FG2.model<-(nls((CO2~log(a*Time)+b), start=setNames(coef(lm(CO2 ~ log(Time), data=FG2)), c("a", "b")),data=FG2)) I get the following error: Error in

Hello, I am new to R and need some help with the legend. How can I add a legend for two variables (in two columns) each having multiple values to be explained in the legend. For example: Var 1 Var 2 <symbol> - Higher <symbol> - Higher <symbol> - Avg <symbol> - Avg <symbol> - Lower <symbol> - Lower I know we

Hi, I have two matrices with 4885 cols and 36 cols respectively . I would like to extract these 36 columns from the bigger matrix, the column values are different but the column names would be the same.Hence based on the names I would like to perform my operation. So is there any way of extracting this info in an easy way. I have tried names,which,grep,subset none have worked. Could someone help

Hi I have the following formula (I hope it is clear - if no, I can try to do better the next time) h(x, a, b) = integral(0 to pi/2) ( ( integral(D/sin(alpha) to Inf) ( ( f(x, a, b) ) dx ) dalpha ) and I want to do an mle with it. I know how to use mle() and I also know about integrate(). My problem is to give the parameter values a and b to the
