Hi all, I'm working with a dataset from 10 treatments, each treatment with 30 subjects, each subject measured 5 times. The plot of the dataset suggests that a 3-parameter logistic could be a reasonable function to describe the data. When I try to fit the model using gnls I got the message 'Step halving factor reduced below minimum in NLS step'. I´m using as the initial values of the

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)

Hi all, I am trying to use nonlinear regression (nls) to analyze some seed germination data, but am having problems with error codes. The data that I have closely matches the germination dataset included in the drc package. Here is the head of the data temp species start end germinated TotSeeds TotGerminated Prop 1 10 wheat 0 1 0 20 0 0.0 2 10 wheat

Hi All, I'm new to R and am trying to run a unit root test on the vector "y" (a time series of inflation (i.e. changes in the Consumer Price Index quarter on quarter)). I've run the Augmented-Dickey-Fuller Test below (R's URCA package). It gives me an error that it cannot find the function ur.df unless I comment out the third last line of code (see below). I try to call

Hello, I am using the ur.df function from the {arca} package to run the augmented Dickey-Fuller unit root test on several time series. However; I do not understand the econometric interpretation of the the "phi1" and "phi2" test-statisitc which are output if you choose a "trend" or "drift" model. I looked at the source code for the function but I do not

I have a question regarding the adf.test command in the tseries library. I have a vector of time series observations (2265 daily log prices for the OEX to be exact). I also have this same data in first-differenced form. I want to test both vectors individually for staionarity with an Augmented Dickey-Fuller test. I noticed when I use the adf.test command from the tseries library, the general

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

Dear all, 1. How can I compute the intersecting area between 2 polygons ? 2. I have polygons with coordinates in decimal degrees (i.e. 13 deg 30 min = 13.5 decimal degrees). I want to compute their area and get the results in square meters or square kiometers. Can anyone give me a conversion coefficient or a pointer where I can find this information (sorry for this off topic question) ? Thanks

hi all i dont understand the error message that is produced by the optim function. can anybody help??? ie: [[1]]$message [1] "CONVERGENCE: REL_REDUCTION_OF_F <= FACTR*EPSMCH" can anyone help? ########################################################################### SK.FIT(XDATA=a,XDATAname="a",PHI1=1,v=5,vlo=2,vhi=300,phi2lo=.01) [[1]] [[1]]$par [1] -0.01377906

Hi Keep your messages in the list, you increase your chance to get some answer. I changed your data to groupedData object (see below), but I did not find any problem in it. plot(wlg) gives reasonable picture and I am not such expert to see any problem with data. Seems to me, that something has to be wrong with nlsList function. > wheat.list <- nlsList(Prop ~ SSlogis(end,Asym, xmid,

Hi Rers, I have a poission time series model with 5 parameters. I just wanted to remove two of the lag on response in the model and put it as a system model. I am not sure about the codes to combine these two on R. If anybody has any R example (code), please post it. My original model: log(Y(t))~constant+b1*Y(t-1)+b2*Y(t-2)+b3*(variable1)+b4*(variable2)+e I would like to construct a

Dear R users, I am applying the augmented-Dickey-Fuller Unit Root Test (ur.df function of the urca package) to a time series of approximately 50 values. To be sure I understood what was going on with the ur.df function, I checked the critical values of the 3 test statistics (tau, phi2 and phi3 if a trend is included) or the 2 test statistics (tau and phi1 if only a drift is included) with the

In my last e-mails, I have asked for help regarding 1. 'defining functions inside loops' 2. 'integrating functions / vector arithmetics' 3. 'vectors out of lists?' 4. 'numerical integration' Since some of these topics seemed to be relevant (I'm guessing by the # of replies I got), I'm posting a modified section of my code. Any thoughts on improvements would

Hi, I am trying to test whether a series is return series stationary, but before proceeding I wanted to make sure I understand correctly how to use the adf.test function and interpret its output... Could you please let me know whether I am correct in my interpretations? ex: I take x such as I know it doesn't have a unit root, and is therefore stationary 1/ > x <- rnorm(1000) >

I just accidently sent a partially complete email, so this contains the rest (sorry!) I'm working on translating llvm's optimized intermediate code to another compiler's intermediate code, and I'm working on the PHI instruction. Here's an example phi instruction to help explain what I'm trying to do: %inc25 = phi i32 [ 1, %entry ], [ %inc, %for.body ] What I would want to

Hi, While doing the ADF test in R using the following command I am getting the error and the result.."> x.ct=ur.df(rev$REVENUE,start=1,end=length(rev$REVENUE),frequency=1) Error in ur.df(rev$REVENUE, start = 1, end = length(rev$REVENUE), frequency = 1) : unused argument(s) (start = 1, end = 4, frequency = 1) >

Dear R users; Ive got two questions concerning nlme library 3.1-65 (running on R 2.2.0 / Win XP Pro). The first one is related to augPred function. Ive been working with a nonlinear mixed model with no problems so far. However, when the parameters of the model are specified in terms of some other covariates, say treatment (i.e. phi1~trt1+trt2, etc) the augPred function give me the following

Dear All, I am trying to convert some S-plus code that I have to run MCMC into R-code. The program works in S-plus, but runs slowly. I have managed to source the program into R. R recognizes that the program is there; for example, it will display the code when I type the function name at the prompt. However, the program will not run. When I try to run the program, I get the following error
