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

Question: after fitting a gamma function to some data, how do I get predicted values? I'm a SAS programmer, I new R, and am having problems getting my brain to function with the concept of "object as class ...". The following is specifics of what I am doing: I'm trying to determine the pdf from data I have created in a simulation. I have generated frequency counts

Dear anonymous, The big mistake in the output might be obvious to you but not to others. Please make clear what the correct output should be or at least what is wrong with the current output. And please DO read the posting guide which asks you not to post in HTML. ir. Thierry Onkelinx Instituut voor natuur- en bosonderzoek / Research Institute for Nature and Forest team Biometrie &

Hi, i am sorry, the output should be values between 0 and 0.1 and not supposed to be 1.00, it is because they are type 1 error rate. And now i get output 1.00 for several samples,rhis is no correct. The loop do not run for every row. i do not know where is my mistake. As i use the same concept on normal distribution setup, i get the result. Sent from my phone On Thierry Onkelinx

Always keep the mailing list in cc. The code runs for each row in the data. However I get the feeling that there is a mismatch between what you think that is in the data and the actual data. ir.

i have combined all the variables in a matrix, and i wish to conduct a simulation row by row. But i found out the code only works for the every first row after a cycle of nine samples. But after check out the code, i don know where is my mistake... can anyone pls help .... #For gamma disribution with equal skewness 1.5 #to evaluate the same R function on many different sets of data

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

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))

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

Hi All, could anybody help me to understand what is this error means ? mydata=read.table("C:/Documents and Settings/angieb/Desktop/CommercialGL/cl_ilf_claimdata.csv",header=TRUE,sep=",") > names(mydata) [1] "ILFTable" "liabLimit" "AnnAggLimit" "DedAmt" "Loss" "TIL" >

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

Hi there, I have a dataset from a longitudinal study with a lot of drop-out. I want to implement the inverse probability weighting method by Robins 1995 JASA paper "Analysis of semiparametric regression models for repeated outcomes in the presence of missing data". Does anyone know if there is a package to do it in R (or other software)? Thanks a lot! Lei

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

Hi all - my first time here and am having an issue with the Predict function. I am using a tutorial as a guide, locate here: http://www.ats.ucla.edu/STAT/R/dae/mlogit.htm My code gives this error > newdata1$predicted <- predict(mlogit,newdata=newdata1,type="response") Error in `$<-.data.frame`(`*tmp*`, "predicted", value = c(0.332822934960197, : replacement has

Hello R users, I am performing a multinomial logit regression and would like to constrain a few model coefficients to be equal. Here is my model: multi <- vglm(case123con ~ SNP_A1+SNP_A2+age, multinomial, work.analy) where case123con is a four level categorical variable (case 1, case 2, case 3, control) and SNP_A1 and SNP_A2 are indicator functions (yes/no). The output of this

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.

I want to test whether the proportional odds assumption for an ordered regression is met. The UCLA website points out that there is no mathematical way to test the proportional odds assumption (http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat//R/dae/ologit.htm), and use graphical inspection ("We were unable to locate a facility in R to perform any of the tests commonly used to test the parallel slopes

Dear R users, I'm having a problem with maxiter specification in VGLM function. I tried to increase the number of iteration to 100, but it still stopped at 30, which is the default. Here is my script: FIT <- vglm(SFH_PCT ~ RD_DEN + CAR_HH + TRS + RES_L, tobit(Lower=0), maxiter = 100) Thanks Gary [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I'm trying to use the inflated binomial distribution of zeros (since 75% of the values are zeros) in a randomized block experiment with four quantitative treatments (0, 0.5, 1, 1.5), but I'm finding it difficult, since the examples available in VGAM packages like for example, leave us unsure of how it should be the data.frame for such analysis. Unfortunately the function glm does not have
