similar to: anova.gls from nlme on multiple arguments within a function fails

Dear R developers, first of all let me join the chorus of congratulations for the release of R 1.0.0. Well, done! Unfortunately, I find it necessary to e-mail in a bug report regarding the `nlme' package. On my office machine I experience the following trouble: bossiaea:/opt/R$ R CMD check -c nlme Checking package `nlme' ... Massaging examples into `nlme-Ex.R' ... Running

Hi, Well after trying to fix the assign commands in version 3.1.7 of your nlme package I still cannot get the plot functions to work. Basically I have no other packages installed (apart from those provided with R) so nlme is the first. my R version info is; platform sparc-sun-solaris2.7 arch sparc os solaris2.7 system sparc, solaris2.7 status

Hi there fellow R-users, I am trying to follow an example of modelling a serial correlation structure in the textbook "Mixed Effects Model in S and Splus". However, I am getting some very odd results. Here is what I am trying to run: library(nlme) data(Ovary) fm1<-lme(follicles~sin(2*pi*Time)+cos(2*pi*Time),data=Ovary,random=pdDiag(~s in(2*pi*Time))) ### The example is fine up

Hi there, I try to compare the mixed model package "lme" by Splus and R. I used the dataset "Ovary" and the following code assuming AR(1) model for the error term: lme(follicles ~ sin(2*pi*Time) + cos(2*pi*Time), data=Ovary, random = pdDiag(~sin(2*pi*Time) ) , correlation=corAR1() ) But I got different results! And then I used a simpler model: lme(follicles ~

Hi: The gls function I used in my code is the following fm<-gls(y~x,correlation=corARMA(p=2) ) My question is how to extact the AR(2) parameters from "fm". The object "fm" is the following. How can I extract the correlation parameters Phi1 and Phi2 from "fm"? These two parametrs is not in the "coef" componenet of "fm". Thanks a

Greetings R-helpers, I am attempting to fit an lme() while specifying a correlation structure, but I'm getting into trouble long before I get to that point. I am receiving the error: Error in y[revOrder] - Fitted : non-conformable arrays It doesn't seem to matter how simple or complex the model I specify is, it always gives this same error message. This makes me suspect something is

Trying following example from Pinheiro and Bates in order to fit an ARMA(1,1) model: library(nlme) fm1Ovary.lme<-lme(follicles~sin(2*pi*Time)+cos(*pi*Time),data=Ovary,random=p dDiag(~sin(2*pi*Time))) fm5Ovary.lme<-update(fm1Ovary.lme,corr=corARMA(p=1,q=1)) I get follwing error message: Error in "coef<-.corARMA"(`*tmp*`, value = c(62.3428455941166, 62.3428517930051 :

Hi, All: Is there a way to get random effects for ARMA parameters? Consider the following example from the 'corARMA' help page: fm1Ovar.lme <- lme(follicles ~ sin(2*pi*Time) + cos(2*pi*Time), data = Ovary, random = pdDiag(~sin(2*pi*Time))) fm5Ovar.lme <- update(fm1Ovar.lme, corr = corARMA(p = 1, q = 1)) fm5Ovar.lme Linear

Hi out there, I am trying to fit a species accumulation curve (increase in number of species known vs. sampling effort) for multiple regions and several bootstrap samples. The bootstrap samples represent different arrangements of the actual sample sequence. I fitted a series of nlme-models and everything seems OK, but since the observations are correlated I tried to include some correlation

There has been some recent discussion on this list about the value of using intervals with lme() to check for whether a model is ill-defined. My question is, what else can drive very large confidence intervals for the variance components (or cause the error message "Error in intervals.lme(Object) : Cannot get confidence intervals on var-cov components: Non-positive definite approximate

I'd like to know why I cannot get a plot and the QQnorm in the same sheet. The commands are simple but: library(nlme) glmod1 <- gls(upfmla,correlation=corAR1(),method="ML") summary(glmod1) par(mfrow = c(2,1)) plot(glmod1, main="GLS Residuals vs. GLS Fitted") qqnorm(glmod1) No matter what (I tried different permutations of the plotting commands) the second drawing

Hi all ! I'm new in this list and newbie about R I'm trying to use R scripts (as in the attached file) for creating some distributions plots of data retrieved by a workflow(with Rserve, to be precise). I was able to do it (even if not in a beatiful way, I have to improve it especially about labels and coordinates) with number inputs like :

Hi List, I have to compare a relationship between y and x for two locations. I found logistic regression fits both datasets well, but I am not sure how to test if relationships for both sites are significantly different. I searched the r site, however no answers exactly match the question. I used Tukey's HSD to compare two means, but the relationship in my study was not simply linear. So I

Hi all, I am having issues comparing models with lmer. As an example, when I run the code below the model summaries (AIC, BIC, loglik) differ between the summary() and anova() commands. Can anyone clear up what's wrong? Thank you! Darren Ward library(lme4) data(sleepstudy) fm1<-lmer(Reaction ~ Days + (1|Subject), sleepstudy) summary(fm1) fm2<-lmer(Reaction ~ Days +

My question concerns the logic behind hypothesis tests for fixed-effect terms in models fitted with lme. Suppose the levels of Subj indicate a grouping structure (k subjects) and Trt is a two-level factor (two treatments) for which there are several (n) responses y from each treatment and subject combination. If one suspects a subject by treatment interaction, either of the following models seem

Dear R user: I bulid a package, and in the package I use the function "nls" to solve some questions. If I have two sets of data, and I want to summary these two data's nls output, I write the command in the package source code like: { .......... summary(fm1) summary(fm2) } then i compiler the package and use "Install package(s) from local zip files" to install my

Hello, I wanted to fit a linear mixed model to a data that is similar in terms of design to the 'Machines' data in 'nlme' package except that each worker (with triplicates) only operates one machine. I created a subset of observations from 'Machines' data such that it looks the same as the data I wanted to fit the model with (see code below). I fitted a model in

The subject says it all really. Question 1. Here is some code created to illustrate my problem, can anyone spot where I'm going wrong? Question 2. The reason I'm following a manual specification of models relates to the fact that in reality I am using mgcv::gam, and I'm not aware that dredge is able to separate individual smooth terms out of say s(a,b). Hence an additional request,

Hi there, I have a data frame as listed below: > Ca.P.Biomass.A P Biomass 1 334.5567 0.2870000 2 737.5400 0.5713333 3 894.5300 0.6393333 4 782.3800 0.5836667 5 857.5900 0.6003333 6 829.2700 0.5883333 I have fit the data using logistic, Michaelis?Menten, and linear model, they all give significance. > fm1 <- nls(Biomass~SSlogis(P, phi1, phi2, phi3), data=Ca.P.Biomass.A)

Paul: I may have found the issue (which is similar to your conclusion). I checked using egsingle in the mlmRev package as these individuals are strictly nested in this case: library(mlmRev) library(nlme) fm1 <- lme(math ~ year, random=~1|schoolid/childid, egsingle) fm2 <- lmer(math ~ year +(1|schoolid:childid) + (1|schoolid), egsingle) Checking the summary of both models, the output is
