Hi, I am trying to do logistic regression for data of 104 patients, which have one outcome (yes or no) and 15 variables (9 categorical factors [yes or no] and 6 continuous variables). Number of yes outcome is 25. Twenty-five events and 15 variables mean events per variable is much less than 10. Therefore, I tried to analyze the data with penalized regression method. I would like please some of the

Hi,   I'm using lars package to run some regression analysis and my doubt now is how can I predict my model to another dataset? Let me explain a little better: I have a dataset from which I withhold some data. With the data that wasn't withheld, I create the model. Now, what I'm not being able to do is apply the model back to the data that I withheld. Any suggestions?   Here it goes

Hey, I have stacked a couple of garchFit objects in a list with names $fit1, $fit2, ..., $fiti assigning objects names using a loop, i.e. after running the loop modelStack = list($fit1, $fit2,...,$fiti). Thus the following apply; a = modelStack$fit2, then a is the second garchFit object of formal class 'fGarch' with 11 slots, @call, @formula... etc. I then want to extract information in

Dear list, I am getting weired with fitting data with a 1/x-polynomial. Suggest I have the following data: x <- c(1,2,3,4,5,6,7) y <- c(100,20,4,2,1,.3,.1) I may fit this with a linear model fit1 = lm(y ~ I(x)) Getting plot out of this model I applied library(polynom) pol1 = polynomial(fit1$coefficients) f1 = as.function(pol1) plot(x,y) lines(x, f1(x), col = 2) Clearly, this model

I stumbled across a mild glitch when trying to compare the result of gam() fitting with the result of lm() fitting. The following code demonstrates the problem: library(gam) x <- rep(1:10,10) set.seed(42) y <- rnorm(100) fit1 <- lm(y~x) fit2 <- gam(y~lo(x)) fit3 <- lm(y~factor(x)) print(anova(fit1,fit2)) # No worries. print(anova(fit1,fit3)) # Likewise. print(anova(fit2,fit3)) #

Hi, I am computing the Nelson-Aalen (NA) estimate of baseline cumulative hazard in two different ways using the "survival" package. I am expecting that they should be identical. However, they are not. Their difference is a monotonically increasing with time. This difference is probably not large to make any impact in the application, but is annoyingly non-trivial for me to just

Hello all, I wish to extract the terms from an rpart object. Specifically, I would like to be able to know what is the response variable (so I could do some manipulation on it). But in general, such a method for rpart will also need to handle a "." case (see fit2) Here are two simple examples: fit1 <- rpart(Kyphosis ~ Age + Number + Start, data=kyphosis) fit1$call fit2 <-

Hi, I want to do a global likelihood ratio test for the proportional odds logistic regression model and am unsure how to go about it. I am using the polr() function in library(MASS). 1. Is the p-value from the likelihood ratio test obtained by anova(fit1,fit2), where fit1 is the polr model with only the intercept and fit2 is the full polr model (refer to example below)? So in the case of the

Hi, I just encountered what I thought was strange behavior in MDS. However, it turned out that the mistake was mine. The lesson learned from my mistake is that one should plot on a square pane when plotting results of an MDS. Not doing so can be very misleading. Follow the example of an equilateral triangle below to see what I mean. I hope this helps others to avoid this kind of headache.

I got my posting bounced and sorry if I accidentally post twice. I have been looking at 'lars' pkg and got puzzled by the behavior of function 'lars'. I want to do weighted lasso regression and can't get a match from lars output with lm output. Here is an example: y = rnorm(10) x = matrix(runif(50),nrow=10) X = data.frame(y,x) z = runif(10) X = data.frame(y,x,z) X$z = X$z /

Hello All, Does anyone know why length(fit1$time) < length(fit2$n) in survfit.coxph output? Why is the predicted time length is not the same as the number of samples (n)?

Dear all, the help file for predict.gbm states that "The predictions from gbm do not include the offset term. The user may add the value of the offset to the predicted value if desired." I am just not sure how exactly, especially for a Poisson model, where I believe the offset is multiplicative ? For example: library(MASS) fit1 <- glm(Claims ~ District + Group + Age +

Hello R users, I've used the following help two compare two regression line slopes. Wanted to test if they differ significantly: Hi, I've made a research about how to compare two regression line slopes (of y versus x for 2 groups, "group" being a factor ) using R. I knew the method based on the following statement : t = (b1 - b2) / sb1,b2 where b1 and b2 are the two slope

Hi, I am working with R version 2.1.0, and I seem to have run into what looks like a bug. I get the same error message when I run R on Windows as well as when I run it on Linux. When I call anova to do a LR test from inside a function, I get an error. The same call works outside of a function. It appears to not find the right environment when called from inside a function. I have provided

Hello dear R help members. I am trying to understand the anova.rq, and I am finding something which I can not explain (is it a bug?!): The example is for when we have 3 nested models. I run the anova once on the two models, and again on the three models. I expect that the p.value for the comparison of model 1 and model 2 would remain the same, whether or not I add a third model to be compared

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 List, I used rlm to calculate two regression models for two data sets (rlm due to two outlying values in one of the data sets). Now I want to compare the two regression slopes. I came across some R-code of Spencer Graves in reply to a similar problem: http://www.mail-archive.com/r-help at stat.math.ethz.ch/msg06666.html The code was: > df1 <- data.frame(x=1:10, y=1:10+rnorm(10))
