Dear All, I am trying to convert some S-plus code that I have to run MCMC into R-code. The program works in S-plus, but runs slowly. I have managed to source the program into R. R recognizes that the program is there; for example, it will display the code when I type the function name at the prompt. However, the program will not run. When I try to run the program, I get the following error

Folks, Based on http://www.biostat.wustl.edu/archives/html/s-news/1999-06/msg00125.html I thought I should experiment with using survreg() to estimate tobit models. I start by simulating a data frame with 100 observations from a tobit model > x1 <- runif(100) > x2 <- runif(100)*3 > ystar <- 2 + 3*x1 - 4*x2 + rnorm(100)*2 > y <- ystar > censored <- ystar <= 0

I am running 1.3.1 on a Windows (NT 4.0) machine. I've fit a nonlinear model intended to predict crop yield from nutrient information, and want to use the profile function. If I type say, profile(simparj.fm) I get the following error message: "Error in prof$getProfile(): number of iterations exceeded maximum of 5.25515e-308" I used the profiler function to profile simparj,fm step

I am running my code in a loop and it does not work but when I run it outside the loop I get the values I want. n <- 1000; # Sample size fitglm <- function(sigma,tau){ x <- rnorm(n,0,sigma) intercept <- 0 beta <- 0 ystar <- intercept+beta*x z <- rbinom(n,1,plogis(ystar)) xerr <- x + rnorm(n,0,tau) model<-glm(z ~ xerr, family=binomial(logit))

I am new to R and I am trying to do a monte carlo simulation where I generate data and interject error then test various cut points; however, my output was garbage (at x equal zero, I did not get .50) I am basically testing the performance of classifiers. Here is the code: n <- 1000; # Sample size fitglm <- function(sigma,tau){ x <- rnorm(n,0,sigma) intercept <- 0 beta

Dear R-users: The following code produces two cones in two panels. What I would like to have is to have them in one, and to meet in the origin. Does anyone have any good ideas how to do this? Thanks for your help Jaakko library(lattice) A<-matrix(ncol=2, nrow=64) for(i in 0:63) { A[i+1,1]<-sin(i/10) A[i+1,2]<-cos(i/10) }

library(ROCR) n <- 1000 fitglm <- function(iteration,intercept,sigma,tau,beta){ x <- rnorm(n,0,sigma) ystar <- intercept+beta*x z <- rbinom(n,1,plogis(ystar)) xerr <- x + rnorm(n,0,tau) model<-glm(z ~ xerr, family=binomial(logit)) *int*<-coef(model)[1] *slope*<-coef(model)[2] # when add error you are suppose to get slightly bias slope. However when I change

Dear all, I'm using zeroinfl() from the pscl-package for zero inflated Poisson regression. I would like to calculate (aproximate) prediction intervals for the fitted values. The package itself does not provide them. Can this be calculated analyticaly? Or do I have to use bootstrap? What I tried until now is to use bootstrap to estimate these intervals. Any comments on the code are welcome.

Dear R experts,   I'm running the following stationary bootstrap programming to find the parameters estimate of a linear model:     X<-runif(10,0,10) Y<-2+3*X a<-data.frame(X,Y) coef<-function(fit){   fit <- lm(Y~X,data=a)    return(coef(fit)) }  result<- tsboot(a,statistic=coef(fit),R = 10,n.sim = NROW(a),sim = "geom",orig.t = TRUE)   Unfortunately, I got this

Hi Ben, Ok! I've removed nvidiafb from kernel config. Now linux is able to boot with the msi Geforce GT 710 card and eventually ends up displaying a slightly distorted lightdm login screen. The mouse cursor moves, but never changes to typing cursor mode when hovering the password input box, and I am also unable to enter the password, some graphics glitches in the login box too. There are
