Dear R listers, I posted this problem several days ago but it seems nobody answered. I use nlm to optimize a given function ,but it always generates the following warnings " Error in nlm(foo, theta.start) : non-finite value supplied by 'nlm' " I don't know why ,can anybody give me some hints ?? thanks in advance. regards .

Dear R listers, I have a very annoying problem using nlm(). I want to find the minimizer of my target function, if written in \LaTeX is f(\mu1,\mu2,\sigma1,\sigma2) = \sum_i^n( w_ig_t(z_i) ), where g_t(z) is a pdf of bivariate normal distribution and z_i is my samples. I cannot get the estimation result generated by nlm(), and I got the following errors " Error in

Hi, I first report the installing error to the r-sig-mac mailing list but it seems nobody ever encounter this annoying problem and I got no replies. so I am trying to forward it to this list, hope it never bothers. Anyone had the same problem, or what does the warning message mean ? Thank you in advance ! Begin forwarded message: > From: Peng Jiang <jp021@sjtu.edu.cn> > Date:

Hi, Is there any package that I can use to simulate the Gaussian Mixture Model , which is a mixture modeling method that is widely used in statistical learning theory. I know there is a mclust, however, I think it is a little bit different from my problem. Thanks very much.. regards. -------------------------- Peng Jiang ??

Hi, dear R experts , I am new. I met this problem when I am trying to learn how to use the nlminb() function. I tried the example which the document provides ( as the following code ) and R gives no response . I don't know whether it is running or not and it takes a very long time but still output nothing so I just close the session window. my question is is there any method

Dear list, I will not use this account later, so i have to quit this list. I don't know how to quit this list, I search the official website and find no answer. thanks very much !! [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R Users, I would like to plot three time series on the same graph, two axis on the left and one axis on the right. The time series that I am graphing on the left do not share a similar scale: one has a range of 1:100 and the other a range of 25000:70000. How can I display the tick marks for both on the left hand side without superimposing them, i.e. one set of tick marks in black right

Hi all, I want to use "which.max" to identify the maximum in a 2D array/matrix and I want "argmin" and return the row and column indices. But "which.max" only works for vector... Is there any convinient way to solve this problem? Thanks a lot! [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi all Just wondering whether one can undertake Lp norm estimation (a type of regression analysis) in R? i.e. argmin S ( | y(i) - x(i)b | ^p ) where: * S is the summation over observation i= 1,2,...,n * y is a vector of n observations * x is an n by p matrix of explanatory variables * b is a p by 1 vector of beta coefficients and * p is a constant to be estimated such that

Hi, I'm having trouble using the constrOptim function to generate the 9-component vector argmin of the function ELfsds: ELfsds <- function(pvechat){ LG=0 for(i in 1:9){ LG=LG+log(pvechat[i]) } return(-LG) } with accompanying gradient function: gradfunc <- function(thetavec){ g=1/(9*thetavec) return(g) } The constraints on the optimization problem are: 1 - components of

Dear all, I am facing the following problem in optimization: w = (d, o1, ..., op, m1, ..., mq) is a 1 + p + q vector I want to determine: w = argmin (a - d(w))' A (a - d(w)) where a is a 1xK marix, A is the covariance matrix of vector a, d(w) is a 1xK vector which parameters are functions of parameters d, o1 .. op, m1 .. mq. Is there some function to solve this problem easily? I know

Hi, dear R experts . is there any package contain an universal EM procedure, that is , for arbitrary d.f. , not just the one in mclust . thanks in advance best regards ----------------------------------------------- Peng Jiang ?? ,Ph.D. Candidate Antai College of Economics & Management ????????

Dear R users, I've had no joy finding a solution to this online or in any of my R books. Many thanks in advance for any help you can give. I'm seeking to output a data frame (or matrix - it doesn't matter which for my purposes) to a .txt file, but omit any row or column names. The data frame that I'm using doesn't actually have column or row names to start with as it has been

Hi! I have a problem of finding a specific value in a column.
