similar to: nls, how to determine function?

Hi I want to change a control parameter for an nls () as I am getting an error message "step factor 0.000488281 reduced below 'minFactor' of 0.000976562". Despite all tries, it seems that the control parameter of the nls, does not seem to get handed down to the function itself, or the error message is using a different one. Below system info and an example highlighting the

Hello, I am wondering if someone can help me. I have the following function that I derived using nls() SSlogis. I would like to find its derivative. I thought I had done this using deriv(), but for some reason this isn't working out for me. Here is the function: asym <- 84.951 xmid <- 66.90742 scal <- -6.3 x.seq <- seq(1, 153,, 153) nls.fn <- asym/((1+exp((xmid-x.seq)/scal)))

Dear all, I am trying to fit a non linear regression model to time series data. If I do this: reg.logis = nls(myVar~SSlogis(myTime,Asym,xmid,scal)) I get this error message (translated to English from French): Erreur in nls(y ~ 1/(1 + exp((xmid - x)/scal)), data = xy, start = list(xmid = aux[1], : le pas 0.000488281 became inferior to 'minFactor' of 0.000976562 I then tried to set

Hi! When checking validity of a model for a large number of experimental data I thought it to be interesting to check the information provided by the summary method programmatically. Still I could not find out which method to use to get to those data. Example (not my real world data, but to show the point): [BEGIN] > DNase1 <- subset(DNase, Run == 1) > fm1DNase1 <- nls(density ~

This works fine: fit42<-nls(Vfs~SSlogis(Months,Asym.Int+Asym.Group*Groupdum,xmid,scal), data=df, start=c(Asym.Int=22,Asym.Group=5,xmid=2,scal=6), na.action=na.omit) But this, identical except using gnls, doesn't converge: fit43<-gnls(Vfs~SSlogis(Months,Asym.Int+Asym.Group*Groupdum,xmid,scal), data=df, start=c(Asym.Int=22,Asym.Group=5,xmid=2,scal=6), na.action=na.omit) Error in gnls(Vfs

How to set the nlme() function to return the answer without the intercept parametrization? #========================================================================================= library(nlme) Soybean[1:3, ] (fm1Soy.lis <- nlsList(weight ~ SSlogis(Time, Asym, xmid, scal),                        data = Soybean)) (fm1Soy.nlme <- nlme(fm1Soy.lis)) fm2Soy.nlme <- update(fm1Soy.nlme,

Hi folks, I am tearing my hair out on this one. I am using an example from Pinheiro and Bates. ### this works data(Orange) mod.lis <- nlsList(circumference ~ SSlogis(age, Asymp, xmid, scal), data=Orange ) ### This works mod <- nlme(circumference ~ SSlogis(age, Asymp, xmid, scal), data=Orange, fixed = Asymp + xmid + scal ~ 1, start =

Hi, I guess this is a final plea, and maybe this should go to R-help but here goes. I am writing a set of functions for calibration and prediction, and to calculate standard errors and intervals I need the variance function to be evaluated at new prediction points. So for instance fit<-gnls(Y~SSlogis(foo,Asym,xmid,scal),weights=varPower())

Could someone explain the meaming of this error message from augPred: > augPred(area3.pen.nlme, primary=~day) Error in predict.nlme(object, value[1:(nrow(value)/nL), , drop = FALSE], : Levels 1,2,3 not allowed for block > predict.nlme(area3.pen.nlme) does not produce an error. area3.pen.nlme was created with: > area3.pen.nlme <- nlme(area ~ SSlogis(day, Asym, xmid, scal),

Mmmh, seems as if I really should change my options as I seem to keep sending off empty bug-reports ;-/ Sorry guys. Here is the content that should have been in the last e-mail: `R CMD check nlme' fails on my machine. The final output in nlme-Ex.Rout is: > library(nlme) > data(Soybean) > fm1 <- nlme(weight ~ SSlogis(Time, Asym, xmid, scal), data = Soybean, + fixed =

I am trying to fit a logistic model to my 10 year data (1999-2008) by year. Codes like below: Year <- c(1999: 2008) for(y in 1:length(year)) { file.input <- paste("C:\\", year[y], "\\data.csv", sep="") table <- read.csv(file=fileinput, header=TRUE, as.is=TRUE, na.strings=c("")) initial <- getInitial(percent ~ SSlogis(age, Asym,

"in non linear modelling finding appropriate starting values is something like an art"... (maybe from somewhere in Crawley , 2007) Here a colleague and I just want to compare different response models to a null model. This has worked OK for almost all the other data sets except that one (dumped below). Whatever our trials and algorithms, even subsetting data (to check if some singular

deriv seems to have problems with a minus-sign before a bracket. Below are four examples of the same function, the top one is wrong, all others are correct (hopefully).

Hello, I'm trying to generate a sine wave in R to fit my observations using the general formula: y=a*sin(b[x+h*pi)]+k where a = amplitude, b=period, h=phase shift, and k=vertical shift I want to use following translation to bring the sine function up onto the y-axis to range from 0-1, and this will place the wave on the x-axis from 0-pi/2. y=1/2sin(2[x+ 1/4*pi]) + 1/2 Additionally, I need

I have a question regarding robust nonlinear regression with nlrob. I would like to place lower bounds on the parameters, but when I call nlrob with limits it returns the following error: "Error in psi(resid/Scale, ...) : unused argument(s) (lower = list(Asym = 1, mid = 1, scal = 1))" After consulting the documentation I noticed that upper and lower are not listed as parameter in

Hello, I have this data: Time AMP 0 0.2000000 10 0.1958350 20 0.2914560 40 0.6763628 60 0.8494534 90 0.9874526 120 1.0477692 where AMP is the concentration of this metabolite with time. If you plot the data, you can see that it could be fitted using a logistic regression. For this purpose, I used this code: AMP.nls <- nls(AMP~SSlogis(Time,Asym, xmid, scal), data

Hello, I am doing several self-starting growth functions for using with nls(). When I list the self-starting functions included in nls library, for instance, SSlogis, there is: > SSlogis function (input, Asym, xmid, scal) ... <environment: 03476D20> attr(,"class") [1] "selfStart" What is this <environment: 03476D20> instruction? By using deriv() and then

Hi, I would like to be able to access the calculated results from the nls package. Using the example in R, fm3DNase1 we can reurn certain parts of the calculations: > coef(fm3DNase1) Asym xmid scal 2.345179 1.483089 1.041454 > resid(fm3DNase1) [1] -0.0136806237 -0.0126806237 0.0089488569 0.0119488569 -0.0025803222 [6] 0.0064196778 0.0026723396 -0.0003276604

Thank you Martin. If I understand correctly, OP could do wheat.list <- nlsList(Prop ~ SSfpl(end, A, B, xmid, scal), data=wlg) or add some small value to all zeroes wlg$prop < -wlg$Prop+1e-7 wheat.list <- nlsList(prop ~ SSlogis(end,Asym, xmid, scal), data=wlg) which gives fairly reasonable results. plot(augPred(wheat.list)) Am I correct?
