Hi May you help me correct my loop function. I want optim to estimates al_j; au_j; sigma_j; b_j by looking at 0 to 20, 21 to 40, 41 to 60 data points. The final result should have 4 columns of each of the estimates AND 4 rows of each of 0 to 20, 21 to 40, 41 to 60. ###MY code is n=20 runs=4 out=matrix(0,nrow=runs) llik = function(x) { al_j=x[1]; au_j=x[2]; sigma_j=x[3]; b_j=x[4]

Hi I have developed the code below. I am worried that the parameters I want to be estimated are "not being found" when I ran my code. Is there a way I can code them so that R recognize that they should be estimated. This is the error I am getting. > out1=optim(llik,par=start.par) Error in pnorm(au_j, mean = b_j * R_m, sd = sigma_j) : object 'au_j' not found #Yet

Hi I have a code that calculate maximisation using optimx and it is working just fine. I want to extend the code to run several colomns of R_j where j runs from 1 to 200. If I am to run the code in its current state, it means I will have to run it 200 times manually. May you help me adjust it to accomodate several rows of R_j and print the 200 results. ***Please do not get intimidated by the

Hi I need help figure out how to fix my code.

Hi guys, Have the following problem computing vectors with pure vector algebra and end up reverting to recursion or for-looping. Function my_cumsum calculates a weighted average (W) of ratios (R), but only up to the given size/volume (v). Now I recurse into the vector (from left to right) with what you have left from the difference of volume minus current weight, and stop when the difference is

Hi All, I want to create empty vectors inside an empty data frame.The name of the vectors has to come dynamically. For example if record_mean is my empty data frame,and i have say 4 categories,the category names for record mean data frame has to recmeanC1,recmeanC2,recmeanC3,recmeanC4,which will be dynamically created and which will again be inserted in my data frame's as column values.Each

Greetings. I've written a convenience function for multicollinearity diagnosis. I'd like to report to the user the formula that is used in a regression. I get output like this: > mcDiagnose(m1) [1] "The following auxiliary models are being estimated and returned in a list:" [1] "`x1` ~ ." formula(fmla)() [1] "`x2` ~ ." I'd like to fill in the period

Dear List members, I would like to ask for advise on quantile regression in R. I am trying to perform an analysis of a relationship between species abundance and its habitat requirements - the habitat requirements are, however, codes - 0,1,2,3... where 0<1<2<3 and the scale is linear - so I would be happy to treat them as continuos The analysis of the data somehow does not work, I am

I want to specify a 2-level mixed model using the lme function in order to test an a priori hypothesis about the between-group values of the slopes but don't know how to do this . Here is the problem. Consider first the case of a single group. The model is: Y_i= a +bX_i + error where I indexes the different values of X and Y in this group . The a priori hypothesis of the slope is: b=K.

Can anybody, please, explain me how many parameter are estimated using randomLCA? For examples, model "dentistry.lca2random" estimate 1 scale (or variance, b_j) parameter and 2 position parameters (a_cj)? Doesn't it? Do I need at least 4 diagnostic tests for such a model? What happens if I specify options blocksize and byclass? How many diagnostic tests (or rater) I need?

I would like to fit the following model: logit(p_{ij}) = \mu + a_i + b_j where a_i ~ N(0, \sigma_a^2) , b_j ~ N(0, \sigma_b^2) and \sigma_a = \sigma_b. Is it possible to fit a model with such a constraint on the variance components in glmer? -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/glmer-question-tp4351829p4351829.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at

I'm working with a orthogonal and nested model (mixed). I have four factors, A,B,C,D; A and B are fixed and orthogonal C is nested in AB interaction and finally, D is nested in C. I would like to model the following Y_ijklm=Mu+A_i+B_j+AB_ij+C_k(ij)+D_l(k(ij))+Error_m(...) I used the next command >summary(aov(abund~A*B + C % in % A:B + D % in % C % in % A:B ,datos)) Is it the correct

Dear R community, Confused by some of my lab results I ask for the definition of the null hypothesis of a two-way analysis of variance in R (anova() and aov()). Starting with the following model y = a_i + b_j , i in A and j in B is the tested null hypothesis H_0: a_i = 0 for all i in A or H_0: a_m = a_n for any m and n in A? Consequently the same questions for interaction effects.

Hi there, I am looking to fit a two-way random effects model to an *unblalanced* layout, y_ijk = mu + a_i + b_j + eps_ijk, i=1,...,R, j=1,...,C, k=1,...,K_ij. I am interested first of all in estimates for the variance components, sigsq_a, sigsq_b and sigsq_error. In the balanced case, there are simple (MM, MLE) estimates for these; In the unbalanced setup,

I'm using the lme function in nmle to estimate the variance components of a fully nested two-level model: Y_ijk = mu + a_i + b_j(i) + e_k(j(i)) lme computes estimates of the variances for a, b, and e, call them v_a, v_b, and v_e, and I can use the intervals function to get confidence intervals. My understanding is that these intervals are probably not that robust plus I need intervals on the

Hi, I wonder if there is a function in (some package of) R which computes marginal effects of the variables in a glm, say, for concretness, a probit model. By marginal effects of the covariate x_j I mean d P(y=1 | x), which is approx g(xB)B_j dx_j where g is the pdf of the normal distribution, x is the vector of covariates (at some points, say, the mean values) and B is the estimated

I am using the gls function to fit a two-stage least squares model with first order autoregressive error terms. Since there is no automated adjustment for the use of two-stage least squares in this package, I am trying to manually replicate standard errors of the coefficient estimates in order to adjust for a first stage OLS estimate of endogenous variables. However, thus far I have been unable to
