Dear R Helper Community! Thank you for all your help and suggestions. For your reference and any future person searching the archives, here is the solution that did what I wanted it to do. As background, my goal was to find the coefficients for the following equation form: y ~ c1 * x1 * x2 ^ -c2 *x3 ^ c3 where y, x1, x2, and x3 are observed data, and c1, c2 and c3 are regression

Hi, I wonder how to pass several functions and their arguments as arguments to a function. For example, the main function is f = function(X ) { process1(X) ... process2(X) } I have a few functions that operate on X, e.g. g1(X, par1), g2(X, par2), g3(X, par3). par1, par2 and par3 are parameters and of different types. I would like to pass g1, g2, g3 and their arguments to f and g1,

Hi, I am currently working with the sem package in R, to create pathway diagrams. Id like to use the standardized path coeffcients. To get these, I use std.coef. However, using this yields only the standardized coefficients, but does not give me the standard error. Does someone know how to get std.coef to show the standard error of the standardized path coefficients as well? Thanks, Bastiaan

Dear list, I've recently came across a problem that I think I've solved and that I wanted to share with you for two reasons: - Maybe others come across the same problem. - Maybe someone has a much simpler solution that wants to share with me ;-) The problem is as follows: expand.grid() allows you to generate a data.frame with all combinations of a set of values, e.g.: >

I would like to limit the significant figures of the calibrated parameters determined by genoud() in the Rgenoud package. Below is some example output, where column 1 is model run number, columns 2-7 are the parameter values, and columns 8-12 are model fit statistics. I would like genoud to internally limit parameters to 4 decimal places as shown in this output. It is clear that the function is

 Dear R-helpers, I'm a new R-user and I was trying to gain some experience with the GNLS function of the NLME package.  This is an extract from my dataset (it's a 432x6 data.frame) called "input", in the first column I have the values that I need to fit, while the remaining columns are input variables for the theoretical model, the function "mymodel" (which returns a

Dear all, I'm calling Winbugs (1.4.3) through R2WinBugs (2.1-18 coda_0.14-7) to fit a switching random walk model, but come up with an instant trap with the log only displaying 'check('. I will paste the trap with session info below; I'd be very grateful for any ideas. Couple of leads: 1. I presume the problem relates to the r package itself or the way I call bugs(), because I

Hello, unfortunately, I don't know a better subject. I would like to be very flexible in how to process my data. Assume the following dataset: par1 <- seq(0,1,length.out = 100) par2 <- seq(1,100) fac1 <- factor(rep(c("group1", "group2"), each = 50)) fac2 <- factor(rep(c("group3", "group4", "group5", "group6"), each =

Hi, I have a data frame DATA, which (simplified of course) looks like this: know1 = c("Y","N","N","Y","N","N","Y","Y","N") par1=c(1,4,5,3,3,2,3,3,5) know2 = c("Y","Y","N","Y","N","N","N","Y","Y")

Hi R users: I'm trying to make a function where two of the parameters are functions, but I don't know how to put each set of parameters for each function. What am I missing? I try this code: f2<-function(n=2,nsim=100,fun1=rnorm,par1=list(),fun2=rnorm,par2=list()){ force(fun1) force(fun2) force(n) p1<-unlist(par1) p2<-unlist(par2) force(p1) force(p2)

Dear R users: I have a problem about catch the value from function. I have following two functions (part): sbolus1 <- function() { ....... for( i in 1:Subject) { kel<-par1 Vd<-par2 PKindex<-sbolus1.out(PKtime,kel,Vd,defun,par1,par2,Dose,i) } savefile(PKindex) } sbolus1.out<-function(PKtime,kel,Vd,defun,par1,par2,Dose,i) { time<-PKtime$time

Hello! I am getting the following errors when running optim() [I tried optim() with 3 different methods as you can see]: Error in optim(c(0.66, 0.999, 0.064), pe, NULL, method = "L-BFGS-B") : objective function in optim evaluates to length 6 not 1 > out <- optim( c(0.66, 0.999, 0.064), pe, NULL, method = "Nelder-Mead") Error in optim(c(0.66, 0.999, 0.064),

Hi R-devel, I am facing a situation where the number of options I would like to propose to the user is somewhat big (and could easily increase more and more as I will code up a little more - even coming to a point where an user should be able to implement his own options). What we have to handle options is the couple: options(par=value) and getOption("par") I was aking myselft what

Hi there again, I have a problem with the "parse"-command. First of all, I show you in a simplified way, what I am trying to do and what "R" answers: > test [1] "u.g$par1, u.g$par2" > mode(test) [1] "character" > ausdruck <- parse(text = test) Error in parse(file, n, text, prompt) : syntax error in "u.g$par1,"

Hi, I have downloaded a R script from http://www.wessa.net/rwasp_edauni.wasp#output. This script produces a densityplot graphic, amongst others, when is executed from the web page. However, when I run it in my machine the *densityplot* function produces any output, I mean a blank graphic. But, it's interesting if I run the following lines in the R interactive console: > y <-

Dear R useRs, I have a problem with nls.lm function of minpackl.lm package. I need to fit the Van Genuchten Model to a set of data of Theta and hydraulic conductivity with nls.lm function of minpack.lm package. For the first fit, the parameter estimates keep changing even after 1000 iterations (Th) and I have a following error message for fit of hydraulic conductivity (k); Reason for

Hi all, I'm trying to use lapply on a list with the following command: out<-lapply(mylist,myfun,par1=p,par2=d) (1) where myfun<-function(x,par1,par1) {.....} (2) now this function is in fact a wrapper for some Fortran code I have written so I think this might be the problem. When I call lapply() as in (1) I get the following message: Error in get(x,
