Dear useRs, upon request, the VGAM package (currently version 0.7-1) has been officially released on CRAN (the package has been at my website http://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~yee/VGAM for a number of years now). VGAM implements a general framework for several classes of regression models using iteratively reweighted least squares (IRLS). The key ideas are Fisher scoring, generalized linear and

hi! i send again my question because there was a problem earlier that someone did not see my attached file. If you really can't download it, this is the attached file. Please help me how to convert this S plus file to R. Is there a quick method to do it? I don't have an S plus installer here. --------------------------------------------------- # Computes a possible choice for

hi! I would like to ask help how to generate numbers from g-and-h distribution. This distribution is like normal distribution but span more of the kurtosis and skewness plane. Has R any package on how to generate them? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much! Form, Filame Uyaco --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

The symptom triggering this email is that an S4 summary method sometimes refuses to be invoked, even when a package is explicitly loaded, if the first load of the package is implicit. It may or may not be specific to 'summary' methods and/or the 'VGAM' package. I've sent to R-devel because (i) it looks like some kind of bug to me, but I'm not sure; (ii) it's not

Dear, When i multiply the y of a regression by 10, I would expect that the coefficient would be multiply by 10 and the z value to stay constant. Here some reproducible code to support the case. *Ex 1* library(mvtnorm) library(VGAM) set.seed(1) x=rmvnorm(1000,sigma=matrix(c(1,0.75,0.75,1),2,2))

Hi , I know this question has been asked twice in the past but to my knowldege, it still hasn't been solved. I am doing a zero inflated binomial model using the VGAM package, I need to obtain p values for my Tvalues in the vglm output. code is as follows > mod2=vglm(dmat~Season+Diel+Tidal.phase+Tidal.cycle,zibinomial, data=mp1) > summary(mod2) Call: vglm(formula = dmat ~ Season +

Hi, R-users Could someone help me to understand this following error. I'm using vglm function in VGAM package Best regards and thank you for your ehlp ######## mydata <- read.table("Data2_overruns.csv", sep =";", header = T, row.names=NULL) > attach(mydata) > > y <- mydata$cat.event > phase.vol <-mydata$phase.vol > pilote <- mydata$pilote

Dear R-help gurus (and T.Yee, the VGAM maintainer) - I've been banging my head against the keyboard for too long now, hopefully someone can pick up on the errors of my ways... I am trying to use optim to fit a zero-inflated negative binomial distribution. No matter what I try I can't get optim to recognize my initial parameters. I think the problem is that dnbinom allows either

Anyone know how to get p-values for the t-values from the coefficients produced in vglm? Attached is the code and output ? see comment added to output to show where I need p-values + print(paste("********** Using VGAM function gamma2 **********")) + modl2<- vglm(MidPoint~Count,gamma2,data=modl.subset,trace=TRUE,crit="c") + print(coef(modl2,matrix=TRUE))

Hello, I want to generate data set from Cox PH model with gamma frailty effects. theta(parameter for frailty distribution)=2 beta=1.5 n=300 cluster size=30 number of clusters=10 I think I should first generate u from Gamma(Theta,theta) and then using this theta I could not decide how I should generate the survival times? Is there any package for this? or any document you could suggest? Any

Hello. I have yet to receive a response to my previous post, so I may have done a poor job asking the question. So, here is the general question: how can I run a run a multivariate (more than one non-independent, response variables) ordered probit regression model? I've had success doing this in the univariate case using the vglm() function in the VGAM package. For example:

Hi Folks, I wonderif someone who is familiar with the details of vglm in the VGAM package can assist me. I'm new to using it, and there doesn;t seem much in the documentation that's relevant to the question below. Say I have a vector x of 0/1 responses and another vector y of 0/1 responses, these in fact being a bivariate set of 0/1 responses equivalent to cbind(x,y). E.g.

R-Experts: I am using the vglm function of the VGAM library to perform proportional odds ordinal logistic regression. The issue that I would like help with concerns the format in which the response variable must be provided for this function to work correctly. Consider the following example: ------ library(VGAM) library(MASS) attach(pneumo) pneumo # Inspect the format of the original dataset

Hello R users, I have a puzzle with the VGAM package, on my first excursion into generalized additive models, in that this very nice package seems to want to do either more or less than what I want. Precisely, I have a 4-component outcome, y, and am fitting multinomial logistic regression with one predictor x. What I would like to find out is, is there a single nonlinear function f(x) which acts

Dear R developers: I am trying to fit a PPO model using vglm from the library VGAM, and get an error while executing the code.

Hello everyone, using the VGAM package and the following code library(VGAM) bp1 <- vglm(cbind(daten$anzahl_b, daten$deckung_b) ~ ., binom2.rho, data=daten1) summary(bp1) coef(bp1, matrix=TRUE) produced this error message: error in object$coefficients : $ operator not defined for this S4 class I am bit confused because some day ago this error message did not show up and

Dear R Helpers This is the R code (which I have slightly changed) I got in VGAM package for estimating the parameters of FRECHET. _________________________________________________________________ y = rfrechet(n <- 100, shape=exp(exp(0))) # (A) fit3 = vglm(y ~ 1, frechet3(ilocation=0), trace=TRUE, maxit=155) # (B) coef(fit3, matrix=TRUE) # (C)

Hi All, I'm fitting an proportional odds model using vglm() from VGAM. My response variable is the severity of diseases, going from 0 to 5 (the severity is actually an ordered factor). The independent variables are: 1 genetic marker, time of medical observation, age, sex. What I *need* is a p-value for the genetic marker. Because I have ~1.5 million markers I'd rather not faffing

Hello, since I installed the package VGAM I have problems useing the predict for othere methods. for example I have a model from glm and polr the command predict(model) I get the error: unable to find an inherited method for function "predict", for signature "polr". Has perhaps anybody a solution, because Iwould need vglm and also other methods like tree in a loop. Thanks a

I would like to fit a Pareto Distribution and I am using the following codes fit=vglm(ycf1 ~ 1, pareto1(location=alpha), trace=TRUE, crit="c") fitted(fit) But the fitted values turn out to be the same for each observation. I guess the problem is with "ycf1 ~ 1", I would be grateful if anyone can give me some advice on how to define the formula. Many thanks -- View this
