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

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))});

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 =

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

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

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

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'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,

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 everyone, I was trying to do some distribution fitting with a numerical field called Tolls. The sample size = 999 rows. Basically I assigned the Toll data to a new variable K by doing: k<-dtest$Toll After that, tried to fit a gamma distribution by doing: fitG<-fitdist(k, "gamma") Then the following messages showed (oh and I checked for empty rows before doing this):

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) -

Hello, I used optim to find the MLE estimates of some parameters. See the code below. It works for data1(x). but It did not work for data2 and the error says" L-BFGS-B needs finite values of 'fn' ". data2: c(x, 32) that is, if I added the number 32 at the end of data1. The error appears "non-finite function value" etc. Any comments or suggestions? Thanks!

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
