Hi, First, when I try the example Prostate with bound 0.44 (as in the manual), I got a different result: > l1c.P <- l1ce(lpsa ~ ., Prostate, bound=0.44) > l1c.P ....

Dear R-help, I am having trouble with the predict function in lasso2. For example: > data(Iowa) > l1c.I <- l1ce(Yield ~ ., Iowa, bound = 10, absolute.t=TRUE) > predict (l1c.I) # this works is fine > predict (l1c.I,Iowa) Error in eval(exper,envir, enclos) : couldn't find function "Yield" And I have similar trouble whenever I use the newdata argument in

In the package lasso2, there is a Prostate Data. To find coefficients in the prostate cancer example we could impose L1 constraint on the parameters. code is: data(Prostate) p.mean <- apply(Prostate, 5,mean) pros <- sweep(Prostate, 5, p.mean, "-") p.std <- apply(pros, 5, var) pros <- sweep(pros, 5, sqrt(p.std),"/") pros[, "lpsa"] <-

Hi, I tried several settings by using the "family=gaussian" in "gl1ce", but none of them works. For the case "glm" can work. Here is the error message I got: > glm(Petal.Width~Sepal.Length+Sepal.Width+Petal.Length ,data=iris,family=gaussian()) > gl1ce(Petal.Width~Sepal.Length+Sepal.Width+Petal.Length ,data=iris,family=gaussian()) Error in eval(expr, envir,

Hello, I am trying to shrink the coefficients of a logistic regression for a sparse dataset, I am using the lasso (lasso2) and I am trying to determine the shrinkinage factor by cross-validation. I would like please some of the experts here to tell me whether i'm doing it correctly or not. Below is my dataset and the functions I use w= a b c d e P A 0 0 0 0 0 1 879 1 0 0 0 0 1 3 0 1 0 0 0 7 7

I have had problems like this before. Probably there is something important that I don't know about routing. Let me introduce to you "Lasso2", a CentOS 4 www server that has been working perfectly well for years. Now I added a second nw card (eth1), automatically using kudzu. I cannot get this dual nw setup to work. The first nw card (eth0) stopped at once working properly,

There are some googlable ways to feed a list of filenames to vim, but I stumble on weird results. With my filelist, I try to do cat list | xargs vim ...to edit the files listed in the file "list".

Dear R community: My platform: R 1.7.0 + windows2000. I am trying to install the package "lasso2" which I saw in the following web address: http://cran.us.r-project.org/src/contrib/PACKAGES.html#emplik. However, I failed to install it from R menu "Packages| Install package(s) from CRAN" since I could not find this item in the list. Thanks in advance! Rui [[alternative

Hi, I am working on a project about hospital efficiency. Due to the high multicolinearlity of the data, I want to fit the model using ridge regression. However, I believe that the data from large hospital(indicated by the number of patients they treat a year) is more accurate than from small hosptials, and I want to put more weight on them. How do I do this with lm.ridge? I know I just need

Disclaimer : Short of having local statistical expertise at hand, I'm using this list because I use R for variable selection in the context of linear multiple regression but the questions I have relate more to basic statistics than to R per se. Please redirect me to another appropriate list if such a list exists. I have the very common problem of identifying which (subset of) variables are

Dear all, I was recently contacted by a user about an alledged problem/bug in the latest version of lasso2. After some investigation, we found out that it was a user error which boils down to the following: > x <- matrix(rnorm(200), ncol=2) > var <- "fred" > apply(x, 2, var) Error in get(x, envir, mode, inherits) : variable "fred" of mode "function"

Thanks. I wonder if there is a general way of extracting var(u) and var(e), which would be needed to simulate u and e. Clearly, one can get the estimated parameters, but is there a clever way of 'setting up' the matrices??

Hi all, I want to know some details about the c routine “lasso” in the functions of “gl1ce()” . However, I have following troubles. First, I can not find the routine in the local directories of this function (or package). Second, if I found the routine, could I call it just like this way, say, fit <- .C("lasso", …,PACKAGE = "lasso2") in my own functions. My system is

Hello list, I've been searching around trying to find whether somebody has written such a package of least angle regression on generalized linear models, like what Lasso2 package does. The extension to generalized linear models is briefly discussed in the comment by D. Madigan and G. Ridgeway. Is such a package available? Thanks, Mike [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, Is there an R implementation of least angle regression for binary response modeling? I know that this question has been asked before, and I am also aware of the "lasso2" package, but that only implements an L1 penalty, i.e. the Lasso approach. Madigan and Ridgeway in their discussion of Efron et al (2004) describe a LARS-type algorithm for generalized linear models. Has

I would like to draw a sample from a linear mixed model y=Xb+Zu+e which has been fitted with lme(), i.e. a model y ~ N(Xb, C), where C=Z cov(u) Z' + cov(e). I've tried to figure out how to extract C from an lme object, because that would solve my problem when also using the predict() function, but without any luck. Can anyone help on that?
