Dear all, I would be grateful if anyone can help me with the following: My aim is to compute explicitely the sum S=A+B where A=sum(exp(c_i/d)), i=1,...,n; B, c_i, and d are real numbers with -Inf<B,c_i<+Inf; and d>0. The problem is that when c_i/d >710 (for some i) R is setting exp(c_i/d) to be equal to +Inf and hence the whole summation S. So in simple cases where for example c_i=8

Dear R users, I have a Fortran code that I would like to compile and call from R later. I have never worked with Fortran before. Does anyone know the steps to create Fortran DLLs for R on a Windows PC. Is anyone aware of a manual (or does anyone know how to) that explains: - What tools and software I need to download for that - How to set the paths in my PC - What

Dear all, I would be very grateful if you could help me with: Given the regularized gamma function Reg=int_0^r (x^(k-1)e^(-x))dx/int_0^Inf (x^(k-1)e^(-x))dx ; 0<r<Inf (which is eventually the ratio of the Incomplete gamma function by the gamma function), does anyone know of a package in R that would evaluate the derivative of the inverse of Reg with respect to k? I am aware that the

Hello everyone, I'm trying to use mle from package stats4 to fit a bi/multi-modal distribution to some data, but I have some problems with it. Here's what I'm doing (for a bimodal distribution): # Build some fake binormally distributed data, the procedure fails also with real data, so the problem isn't here data = c(rnorm(1000, 3, 0.5), rnorm(500, 5, 0.3)) # Just to check

Dear all I've got the dataset data:2743;4678;21427;6194;10286;1505;12811;2161;6853;2625;14542;694;11491; ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? 14924;28640;17097;2136;5308;3477;91301;11488;3860;64114;14334 I know from other testing that it should be possible to fit the data with the exponentialdistribution. I tried to get parameterestimates for the exponentialdistribution with R, but as the values of the parameter

Hello list, I just started R today and tried something quite simple. I wanted to create a colored plot and eventually after hours of fiddling around got it working. However, my solution seems very suboptimal and I'd really appreciate your hints on how to improve. I believe that R already offers many functions I coded (e.g. distance between two vectors, vector length, vector normalization and

Dear R users, I am new to R. I would like to find *maximum likelihood estimators for psi and alpha* based on the following *log likelihood function*, c is consumption data comprising 148 entries: fn<-function(c,psi,alpha) { s1<-sum(for(i in 1:n){(c[i]-(psi^(-1/alpha)*(lag(c[i],-1))))^2* (lag(c[i],-1)^((-2)*(alpha+1)) )}); s2<- sum(for(m in 1:n){log(lag(c[m],-1)^(((2)*alpha)+2))});

Good Afternoon, I am relatively new to R and have been trying to figure out how to estimate regression coefficients using the MLE method. Some background: I am trying to examine scenarios in which certain estimators might be preferred to others, starting with MLE. I understand that MLE will (should) produce the same results as Ordinary Least Squares if the assumption of normality holds. That

Dears useRs, I am using the mle function but this gives me the follow erros that I don't understand. Perhaps there is someone that can help me. thank you for you atention.

Dear, I'm starting on R language. I would like some help to implement a MLE function. I wish to obtain the variables values (alpha12, w_g12, w_u12) that maximize the function LL = Y*ln(alpha12 + g*w_g12 + u*w_u12). Following the code: rm(list=ls()) ls() library(stats4) Model = function(alpha12,w_g12,w_u12) { Y = 1 u = 0.5 g = -1 Y*log(alpha12 + g*w_g12 + u*w_u12) } res =

Dear R-help readers, I am writing to you in order to ask you a few questions about distribution fitting in R. I am trying to find out whether the set of event interarrival times that I am currently analyzing is distributed with a Gamma or General Pareto distribution. The event arrival granularity is in minutes and interarrival times are in seconds, so the values I have are 0, 60, 120, 180, and

I'm trying to calculate the maximum likelihood estimate for a binomial distribution. Here is my code: y <- c(2, 4, 2, 4, 5, 3) n <- length(y) binomial.ll <- function (pi, y, n) { ## define log-likelihood output <- y*log(pi)+(n-y)*(log(1-pi)) return(output) } binomial.mle <- optim(0.01, ## starting value binomial.ll,

Hi, When I run the following code, r <- c(3,4,4,3,5,4,5,9,8,11,12,13) n <- rep(15,12) x <- c(0, 1.1, 1.3, 2.0, 2.2, 2.8, 3.7, 3.9, 4.4, 4.8, 5.9, 6.8) x <- log10(x) fr <- function(c, alpha, beta) { P <- c + (1-c) * pnorm(alpha + beta * x) P <- pmax(pmin(P,1),0) -(sum(log(choose(n,r))) + sum(r * log(P)) + sum((n -r)* log(1-P))) } fit <- mle((fr), start = list(c

I tried the following ordered logistic regression in R: mod1 <- polr(altitude~sp + wind_dir + wind_speed + hr, data=altioot) But when I asked The summary of my regression I got the folloing error message: > summary (mod1) Re-fitting to get Hessian Error in optim(start, fmin, gmin, method = "BFGS", hessian = Hess, ...) : the initial value of 'vmin' is not

I have this problem: I have an Internet line input with variable speed. I have a max speed and a min speed: Vmax and Vmin. The speed is always changing between Vmax and Vmin. I want to share the actual bandwidth (you don''t not how much, you only know the speed is between Vmax and Vmin) for N clients. The bandwidth should be shared so nobody can get more bandwidth than the others.

Hello, I am trying to use nlm to estimate the parameters that minimize the following function: Predict<-function(M,c,z){ + v = c*M^z + return(v) + } M is a variable and c and z are parameters to be estimated. I then write the negative loglikelihood function assuming normal errors: nll<-function(M,V,c,z,s){ n<-length(Mean) logl<- -.5*n*log(2*pi) -.5*n*log(s) -

Hi, R developers. when running mle inside a loop I found a nasty behavior. From time to time, my model had a degenerate minimum and the loop just crashed. I tracked it down to "vcov <- if (length(coef)) solve(oout$hessian)" line, being the hessian singular. Note that the minimum reached was good, it just did not make sense to calculate the covariance matrix as the inverse of a

With the exception of "L-BFGS-B", all of the other optim() methods return the value of the function when they are given a trivial function (i.e., one with no variable arguments) to optimize. I don't think this is a "bug" in L-BFGS-B (more like a response to an undefined condition), but it leads to a bug in stats4::mle -- a spurious error saying that a better fit has been

I have an issue using mle in versions of 32 bits. I am writing a package which I want to submit to the CRAN. When doing the check, there is an example that has an error running in the 32 bits version. The problem comes from the mle function, using it with a lower constrain. In 64 bits version it works fine but when I put it in the R 32 bits it fails. (same numbers, all equal!) The call is:
