similar to: rrp.impute: for what sizes does it work?

Hello R experts I am using Hmisc aregImpute and Impute (following example on page 105 of The Hmisc and Design Libraries). *My end goal is to have NAs physically replaced in my dataframe. I have read the help pages and example in above sited pdf file, but to no avail. Here is example of what I did. Ph, my data frame, is attached. > xt <- aregImpute (~ q5 + q22rev02 + q28a, n.impute=10,

>From Internet I downloaded the file Hmisc.zip and used it for R package updation. and R gave the message 'Hmisc' successfull unpacked. But when I use the functions like aregImpute the package is displaying coundn't find the function Where as in help.search it is giving that use of the function >

I tried multiple imputation with aregImpute() and fit.mult.impute() in Hmisc 3.8-3 (June 2010) and R-2.12.1. The warning message below suggests that summary(f) of fit.mult.impute() would only use the last imputed data set. Thus, the whole imputation process is ignored. "Not using a Design fitting function; summary(fit) will use standard errors, t, P from last imputation only. Use

I am a new user of R for Windows, enthusiast about the many functions of the Design and Hmisc libraries. I combined the results of a Cox regression model after multiple imputation (of missing values in some covariates). Now I got my vector of coefficients (and of standard errors). My question is: How could I use directly that vector to run programs such as 'nomogram', 'calibrate',

  I have timeseries data for some factors, and some missing values are there in those factors, I want impute those missing values without disturbing the distribution of that factor, and maintaining the correlation with other factors. Pl. suggest me some imputation methods. I tried some functions in R like aregImpute, transcan. After the imputation I am unable to retrive the data with imputed

Hi! Does anyone know how to do the test for goodness of fit of a logistic model (in rms package) after running fit.mult.impute? I am using the rms and Hmisc packages to do a multiple imputation followed by a logistic regression model using lrm. Everything works fine until I try to run the test for goodness of fit: residuals(type=c("gof")) One needs to specify y=T and x=T in the fit. But

I have always avoided missing data by keeping my distance from the real world. But I have a student who is doing a study of real patients. We're trying to test regression models using multiple imputation. We did the following (roughly): f <- aregImpute(~ [list of 32 variables, separated by + signs], n.impute=20, defaultLinear=T, data=t1) # I read that 20 is better than the default of

Dear all; I am trying to use HMISC imputation function to perform multiple imputations on my data and I keep on getting errors for the code given in the help files. When using "aregImpute" the error is; >f <- aregImpute(~y + x1 + x2 + x3, n.impute=100) Loading required package: acepack Iteration:1 Error in .Fortran("wclosepw", as.double(w), as.double(x),

I am doing multiple imputation with Hmisc, and can't figure out how to replace the NA values with the imputed values. Here's a general ourline of the process: > set.seed(23) > library("mice") > library("Hmisc") > library("Design") > d <- read.table("DailyDataRaw_01.txt",header=T) > length(d);length(d[,1]) [1] 43 [1] 2666

hi, i'm trying to learn how to use aregImpute by doing the examples provided with the package, and after installing Hmisc.1.6-1.zip (for Windows), and running the very first example on R 1.7.1, i get an error message warning me about "mace" (see below) and acepack. i found the acepack package, but its filename ends in tar.gz and i'm finding it difficult to open (because its

Hello, I would like to use the aregImpute and fit.mult.impute to impute missing values for my dataset and then conduct logistic regression analyses on the data, taking into account that we imputed values. I have no problems imputing the values using aregImpute, but I am getting an error at the fit.mult.impute stage. Here is some sample code (I actually have more observations and variables to

Hello R-help, Thanks for everyone's very helpful suggestions so far. I am now trying to use aregImpute for my missing data imputation. Here are the code and error messages. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Hello, I have a general question about combining imputations as well as a question specific to the rms and Hmisc packages. The situation is multiple regression on a data set where multiple imputation has been used to give M imputed data sets. I know how to get the combined estimate of the covariance matrix of the estimated coefficients (average the M covariance matrices from the individual

Dear R-help, I am trying to impute missing data for the first time using R. The norm package seems to work for me, but the missing values that it returns seem odd at times -- for example it returns negative values for a variable that should only be positive. Does this matter in data analysis, and/or is there a way to limit the imputed values to be within the minimum and maximum of the actual

I'm looking for a package that has a start-of-the-art method of imputation of missing values in a data frame with both continuous and factor columns. I've found transcan() in 'Hmisc', which appears to be possibly suited to my needs, but I haven't been able to figure out how to get a new data frame with the imputed values replaced (I don't have Herrell's book). Any

Hi all, I'm currently working with a dataset that has quite a few missing values and after some investigation I figured that multiple imputation is probably the best solution to handle the missing data in my case. I found several references to functions in S-Plus that perform multiple imputation (NORM, CAT, MIX, PAN). Does R have corresponding functions? I searched the archives but was not

Hi, I am a long time SPSS user but new to R, so please bear with me if my questions seem to be too basic for you guys. I am trying to figure out how to analyze survey data using logistic regression with multiple imputation. I have a survey data of about 200,000 cases and I am trying to predict the odds ratio of a dependent variable using 6 categorical independent variables (dummy-coded).

Dear alltogether, I experience very strange behavior of imputation of NA's with the NORM library. I use R 2.2.0, win32. The code is below and the same dataset was also tried with MICE and aregImpute() from HMISC _without_ any problem. The problem is as follows: (1) using the whole dataset results in very strange imputations - values far beyond the maximum of the respective column, >

Dear r-help list, I'm trying to use multiple imputation for my MSc thesis. Having good exemples using the Hmisc package, I tried the aregImpute function. But with my own dataset, I have the following error : Erreur dans matxv(X, xcof) : columns in a (51) must be <= length of b (50) De plus : Warning message: In f$xcoef[, 1] * f$xcenter :   la taille d'un objet plus long n'est pas

I would like to impute missing data in a set of correlated variables (columns of a matrix). It looks like transcan() from Hmisc is roughly what I want. It says, "transcan automatically transforms continuous and categorical variables to have maximum correlation with the best linear combination of the other variables." And, "By default, transcan imputes NAs with "best
