similar to: lmer / variance-covariance matrix random effects

If you are indeed using lme and not lmer then the needed function is VarCorr(). However, 2 recommendations. First, this is a busy list and better emails subject headers get better attention. Second, I would recommend using lmer as it is much faster. However, VarCorr seems to be incompatible with lmer and I do not know of another function to work with lmer. Hence, a better email subject header

Dear R users! I used lme to fit a mixed model with random intercept and spatial Gaussian correlation i.e. I fitted a model of the following form: Y = X*beta + error and error = U + W(t) + Z where U is the random intercept (normally distributed), W(t) the stationary Gaussian process and Z also a normally distributed (the residual) rv. Each of these three random variables have a variance which

Hola a tod en s, estoy trabajando con modelos de regresión mixta con el paquete "nlme", concretamente con la función "lme". Una vez que hago mi modelo y el summary del mismo obtengo por ejemplo la significación (valor p) de la variable independiente, así como el valor del AIC para comparar mi modelo con otro similar, pero no sé cómo obtener un valor del grado de ajuste de la

Hi, what is actually the best method to include R-plots into LaTeX documents? At the moment i use postscript("myplot.eps", width = 12.0, height = 9.0, horizontal = FALSE, onefile = TRUE, paper = "special",encoding = "TeXtext.enc") plot(foo,bar) dev.off() But it is a bit unhandy to scale later and its difficult to get nice formula in the plots. And how should

Dear R-devs, Below is a small example of what I am trying to achieve, that is trivial in R and I would like to learn how to do in C, for very large matrices: > (mymat <- matrix(c(1,0,0,2,2,1), nrow = 2)) [,1] [,2] [,3] [1,] 1 0 2 [2,] 0 2 1 And I would like to produce: [1] "a*C" "B*c" Which can be trivially done in R via something like: foo

Thanks for the first reply, Jeremy. What about the (future) implementation of RichACL? Will there be any native Linux Client support along with the SMB2/SMB3 protocol? I know, there is a native implemenation for RichACLs in ext4 FS. Unfortunately, smbcals is not a native Linux ACL Tool and has a very unhandy syntax. I just tested some days ago. ;-) I am looking for a solution that allows the

Dear R-users Coming from a proc mixed (SAS) background I am trying to get into the use of (n)lme. In this connection, I have some (presumably stupid) questions which I am sure someone out there can answer: 1) With proc mixed it is easy to get a hold on the estimated variance parameters as they can be put out into a SAS data set. How do I do the same with lme-objects? For example, I can see the

Good Morning. Below I like statement like j<-grep(".r\\b",colnames(mydata),value=TRUE); j with the \\b option which I read long time ago which Ive found useful. Are there more or these options, other than ? grep? Thanks. dstat is just my own descriptive routine. > x ?[1] "age"????????? "sleep"??????? "primary"????? "middle" ?[5]

I would appreciate confirmation that the function vcov(model.nlme) gives the var-cov matrix of the fixed effects in an nlme model. Presumably the random-effects var-cov matrix is given by cov(ranef (model.nlme)? Rob Forsyth

I have data.frame's with IDs and multiple columns. B/c some of IDs showed up more than once, I need sum up colum values to creat a new dataframe with unique ids. I hope there are some cheaper ways of doing it... Because the dataframe is huge, it takes almost an hour to do the task. Thanks so much in advance! Young # ------------------------- examples are here and sum.dup.r is at the

Hello, Is there a way to compare the relative relevance of fixed and random effects in mixed models? I have in mind measures of effect size in ANOVAs, and would like to obtain similar information with mixed models. Are there information criteria that allow to compare the relevance of each of the effects in a mixed model to the overall fit? Thank you, Bruno

Dear All, I would like to ask you to help me with my memeory. I remember using some function that would list all the possible methods I could apply to an object. Say, if I had an object of class=lme, it would tell me that that I could do stuff like qqnorm(myobjct), or VarCorr(myobject). In general, a very complete list. I though this list of all possible methods would pop out by typing

I have a loop that I would like to use to extract the "stddev" for each itteration so I can average the "stddev" for all the runs. It would be helpful to know how to extract the "stddev" for each run from the VarCorr. Thanks MCruns<-1000 sighatlvec<-rep(NA,MCruns) sighatbvec<-rep(NA,MCruns) sighatevec<-rep(NA,MCruns) for(mc in 1:MCruns) {

Dear R users, I have a question about the patterned variance-covariance structure for the random effects in linear mixed effect model. I am reading section 4.2.2 of "Mixed-Effects Models in S and S-Plus" by Jose Pinheiro and Douglas Bates. There is an example of defining a compound symmetry variance-covariance structure for the random effects in a split-plot experiment on varieties of

Hi all, I am currently doing a consistency analysis using an lmer model and trying to use parametric bootstrapping for the confidence intervals. My model is like this: model<-lmer(y~A+B+(1|C/D)+(1|E),binomial) where E is the individual level for consistency analysis, A-D are other fixed and random effects that I have to control for. Following Nakagawa and Scheilzeth I can work out the

Hi, I am currently preparing a new version of my package papeR. When I run R CMD check using the development version of R I get the following note: Package in Depends field not imported from: ?nlme?, ?lme4?, ?survival? These packages needs to imported from for the case when this namespace is loaded but not attached. I now have problems to fix this issue. It is easy to get rid of two of the

Folks In trying to use lmer for a hierarchical model, I encountered the following message: Error in UseMethod("VarCorr") : no applicable method for 'VarCorr' applied to an object of class "mer" foo.mer <- lmer(y ~ TP + (TP|M),data=joe.q) > head(joe.q[,1:5]) TP M AB Trt y 1 1 Jan A NN 19.20002 2 1 Jan A NN 19.06378 3 1 Jan A NN

All, How does one extract the level-1 variance from a model fit via lmer()? In the code below the level-2 variance component may be obtained via subscripting, but what about the level-1 variance, viz., the 3.215072 term? (actually this term squared) Didn't see anything in the archives on this. Cheers, David > fm <- lmer( dv ~ time.num*drug + (1 | Patient.new), data=dat.new )

I would appreciate some thoughts on using the bootstrap functions in the library "bootstrap" to estimate confidence intervals of ICC values calculated in lme. In lme, the ICC is calculated as tau/(tau+sigma-squared). So, for instance the ICC in the following example is 0.116: > tmod<-lme(CINISMO~1,random=~1|IDGRUP,data=TDAT) > VarCorr(tmod) IDGRUP = pdLogChol(1)
