similar to: AIC value in lmer

Hi, I'm actually trying to rank a set of candidate models with an information criterion (AICc, QIC, BIC). The problem I have is that I use mixed-effect cox regression only available with the package {coxme} (see the example below). #Model1 >spring.cox <- coxme (Surv(start, stop, Real_rand) ~ strata(Paired)+R4+R3+R2+(R3|Individual), spring) I've already found some explications in

Dear R users, I have a table with the following form STATION X Y 1 -70 30 1 -70 30 1 -70 30 2 -72 29 2 -72 29 2 -72 29 2 -72 29 How want to extract unique value for those columns ... I am sure it is very simple, but I can not achieve to find the correct way ! I want to obtain something like STATION X Y 1

Hi, When doing a two-ways anova in R and comparing my same results with an SPSS output, I noticed that R calculated type I Sum of Squares. Is it possible to use Type III Sum of Squares?

Dear all, I'm trying to compare two sets of variables, the first set is composed exclusively of numerical variables and the second regroups factors and numerical variables. I can't use a Manova because of this inclusion of numerical variables in the second set. The solution should be to perform a Mancova, but I didn't find any package that allow this type of test. I've already

Dear all, I did a RDA and when I looked to the signification of the test with permutest, the output was non-significant. But when I used the envfit function, some of the vectors are significant. All the test's conditions are respected. What it means? Is it an error in the script? Commands and output: > permutest(rda.ind, perm=999, first=TRUE) Permutation test for rda  Call:

Dear all, I'm trying to get a Brownian bridge kernel (kernelbb) for each combination of two consecutive animal locations (see commands below) and put them, with a loop, inside a list. It works well at the beginning but after 42 runs, it appears the following warning : >Error in seq.default(yli[1], yli[2], by = diff(xg[1:2])) :  >  invalid (to - from)/by in seq(.) I looked at the

Hi, I am trying to fit a model with lmer in R and proc glimmix in SAS. I have simplified my code but I am surprised to see I get different results from the two softwares. My R code is : lmer(y~age_cat + (1|cat),data=fic,family=binomial(link = "logit"), NaGQ=1) My SAS code is : ods output Glimmix.Glimmix.ParameterEstimates=t_estimates; proc glimmix data=tab_psi method=laplace;

Hello. Some months age an e-mail was posted in which a comparison between Glimmix and glm was discussed. I have not been able to find that e-mail on the R archive. Does anyone recall the date of the above e-mail?

I'm fitting generalized linear mixed models to using several fixed effects (main effects and a couple of interactions) and a grouping factor (site) to explain the variation in a dichotomous response variable (family=binomial). I wanted to compare the output I obtained using PROC GLIMMIX in SAS with that obtained using lmer in R (version 2.6.1 in Windows). When using lmer I'm specifying

Dear R users, I've been trying to find an R package which does the PL estimation of spatial GLMMs especially with the negative binomial model. so it would be something similar to the "proc GLIMMIX" with the PL method in SAS. I've looked up some possible packages related to GLMMs, but it doesn't seem to be anyone using the PL estimation. Thanks for your help! Fei He UCR

I'm trying to fit a generalized mixed effects model to a data set where each subject has paired categorical responses y (so I'm trying to use a binomial logit link). There are about 183 observations and one explanatory factor x. I'm trying to fit something like: (lmer(y~x+(1|subject))) I also tried fitting the same type of model using glmmPQL from MASS. In both cases, I get a

Dear I am analysing my data wit a mixed model. I used SAS but I want to redo the same analysis in R. Here the SAS code and what I wrote in R. It seems to work but the results are not the same. I don't know how to specify the class variable in R or specify the variance matrix. Can you please help me? Thanks Jurgen ## SAS: proc glimmix data=trend method=RSPL; class pid; model mdrfinal

Dear R-users, I'm new to R, so my apologies if this question doesn't make sense. I've tried the following model in lmer, and it works perfectly: model<-lmer(aphids~densroot+zone+(1|zone/site), family=quasipoisson) But if I try the exact same model with a different variable, totmas, the model looks as follows: model<-lmer(aphids~totmas+zone+(1|zone/site), family=quasipoisson)

Dear R-users, I am currently trying to switch from SAS to R, and am not very familiar with R yet, so forgive me if this question is irrelevant. If I try to find the significance of the fixed factor "spikes" in a generalized linear mixed model, with "site" nested within "zone" as a random factor, I compare following two models with the anova function:

Hi I would like to use xen on my company laptop (DELL Latitude D830 with dual core intel cpu + 2 GB RAM) but first have to unclear some doubts about xen hypervisor. So, my company provided winxp preinstaled with some special software for my job. In addition I made dual boot with linux or opensolaris. Now I would like to be on my linux all the time with ability of using winxp all the time. :-)

Hi All, I am making the switch to R and uncertain which of the several packages for mixed models is appropriate for my analysis. I am waiting for Pinheiro and Bates' book to arrive via inter-library loan, but it will be a week or more before it arrives. I am trying to fit a generalized linear mixed model of survival data (successes/trials) as a function of several categorical fixed and

Hi, I try to compute circular means for a matrix with NAs, but the function "circ.mean" return only means for lines with complete values and do not accept "na.omit=T" or "na.rm=T", or "na.action=na.omit", or "na.fail=T". Also, I try to use "polar.plot" of the package poltrix with the same matrix, but angles are not display because of
