Dear R users; I'm trying to fit nonlinear model (asymptotic regression model) with gnls from library nlme in R 2.1.0 with no big issues so far. However after installed the version R 2.1.1, when I tried to update the initial model including a var-cov model I've got the error: "Error: Object "convIter" not found". This error occurs only with R 2.1.1. Any ideas? Thanks

If possible I would like to combine two different character arrays in combinations Array1 <- c("height","weight","age","sex") Array2 <- c("trt0","trt1","trt2") I would like to combine these two character vectors to end up with such ... Array3 "height.trt0.trt1" "height.trt0.trt2"

Kia ora list members: I'm having a little difficulty getting the correct standard errors from a glm.object (R 1.9.0 under Windows XP 5.1). predict() will gives standard errors of the predicted values, but I am wanting the standard errors of the mean. To clarify: Assume I have a 4x3x2 factorial with 2 complete replications (i.e. 48 observations, I've appended a dummy set of data at the

Hi: I have data from an assay in the form of two vectors, one is response and the other is a predictor. When I attempt to fit a 5 parameter logistic model with "nls", I get converged parameter estimates. I also get the same answers with "gnls" without specifying the "weights" argument. However, when I attempt to use the "gnls" function and try to

Hello. A quick question about incorporating variation due to study in the metafor package. I'm working with a particular data set for meta-analysis where some studies have multiple measurements. Others do not. So, let's say the effect I'm looking at is response to two different kinds of drug treatment - let's call their effect sizes T1 and T2. Some studies have multiple

Hi, I have an experiment with 2 independant factors which I have been trying to analyse in R. The problem is that there are several data points recorded on the same animal. However, no combination of treatments is repeated on the same animal. All possible combinations of treatments are done in a random order with as many points as possible being done on 1 animal before moving onto the next. The

I'm trying to understand better the differences between fixed and random effects by running very simple examples in the nlme package. My first attempt was to try doing a t-test in lme. This is very similar to the Rail example that comes with nlme, but it has two groups instead of five. So I try a1 <- 1:10 a2 <- 7:16 t.test(a2,a1) getting t(18)=4.43, p=.0003224. Then I try to do it

Hello, Everyone, I am sorry that my message got truncated. I resend it again as below: Hello, R Users, I have a list (say listexp) of 10,000 elements, each of which consists of a matrix (5X6).

#Dear All, #I'm having a bit of a trouble here, please help me... #I have this data set.seed(4) mydata <- data.frame(var = rnorm(100), temp = rnorm(100), subj = as.factor(rep(c(1:10),5)), trt = rep(c("A","B"), 50)) #and this model that fits them lm <- lm(var ~ temp * subj, data = mydata) #i want to

All, I'm trying to create an augPred plot in the nlme library, similar to the plot on p.43 of Pinheiro & Bates (Mixed Effects Models in S and S-Plus) for their Pixel data. My data structure is the same as the example but I still get the error msg below. > comp.adj.UKV <- groupedData(adj.UKV ~ Time | Patient_no/Lisinopril, data = comp.adj.UKV.frm, order.groups = F) >

All, I have a question RE plotting the prediction lines of a random effects model via augPred. I'll illustrate via the Pixel dataset within the nlme package: library(nlme) attach(Pixel) fm1Pixel = lme(pixel ~ day + I(day^2), data = Pixel, random = list(Dog = ~ 1)) plot(augPred(fm1Pixel)) ### 10 fitted lines since there are 10 dogs fm2Pixel = update(fm1Pixel, . ~ . + Side)

Dear all I am trying nlme together with Pinheiro/Bates book. I constructed grouped data object with suitable plotting layout (according to some common factor, panels from bottom to top are in increasing order). When I do nlme(... some stuff...) I get fitted object which I can plot with plot(augPred(fit.nlme6, level=0:1)) but it results in completely different ordering. Is there any way

Hi all, I'm new to R and have the following problem: I have a 2 factor design (a has 2 levels, b has 3 levels). I have an object kidney.aov which is an aov(y ~ a*b), and when I ask for model.tables(kidney.avo, se=T) I get the following message along with the table of effects: Design is unbalanced - use se.contrast() for se's but the design is NOT unbalanced... each fator level

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

Hi Well, yes I tried it about two weeks ago but my post did not get through as it still awaits moderator approval. I could check which column is offending but actually it is only minor nuisance, I can live with selection of columns before fitting a model. What seems to me strange is that both full dataset and only selected colums gave me identical fit results but only one works within augPred.

Dear all I encountered strange behaviour of augPred with virtually the same data First I made groupedData object. > mar.g<-groupedData(rutilizace~doba|int, data=mar) When I perform nlme on complete dataset I get an error with augPred > fit<-nlsList(rutilizace~SSasymp(doba, Asym, R0, lrc), data=mar.g) Warning message: c("1 error caught in nls(y ~ cbind(1 - exp(-exp(lrc) * x),

Hi All, I'm generating 10 different data sets with 1 and 0 in a matrix form and writing the output in separate files. Now I need to stack all these data sets in one vector and I know that stack only operates on list or data frame however I got these data sets by converting list to a matrix so can't go backwards now. Is there a way i can still use Stack? Please see the program:

Dear all as I did not get any response on my post about abline and plot(augPred)) I try again. I hope I do not break some posting guide rules. I would try to contact package maintainer directly but there is stated to be R-core people, so I feel R-help list shall be OK. I need to draw straight lines through augPred plotted panels (vertical or horizontal) at specified point. I know I shall

It got through just fine. It appeared on Aug 15. It just didn't get any replies. As I read your original question in this thread, it was not clear to me that you had

I have been trying for hours now to perform an orthogonal contrast through an ANOVA in R. I have done a two-factor factorial experiment, each factor having three levels. I converted this dataset to a dataframe with one factor with nine treatments, as I couldn't work out what else to do. I have set up a matrix with the eight orthogonal contrasts that I wish to perform, but despite
