similar to: "parm" argument in confint.multinom () nnet package

I don't know if this has already come up in the list or elsewhere - a quick search did't show anything relevant - but I think it's worth of mention. The confint.lm function in package MASS doesn't work correctly when called on a subset of parameters. The bug, easy to fix, is that confidence intervals are computed for all parameters anyway, and then assigned to a matrix which is too

I can't get confint.glm to work from within a function. Consider the following (using R 1.9.1, Windows 2000): # FIRST: SOMETHING THAT WORKS FROM A COMMAND PROMPT DF <- data.frame(y=.1, N=100) (fit <- glm(y~1, family=binomial, data=DF, weights=DF[,"N"])) Call: glm(formula = y ~ 1, family = binomial, data = DF, weights = DF[, "N"]) Coefficients:

Dear All: I am interested in multinomial logit models (function multinon, library nnet) but I'm having troubles in choose whether to define the predictors as factors or not. I had posted earlier this example (thanks for the reply ronggui): worms<- data.frame(year= rep(2000:2004, c(3,3,3,3,3)),age=rep(1:3,5),

Hello, I apologize if this seems like an obvious question, but I have been looking everywhere and have yet to find an answer. I am doing a multinomial regression with multinom() in the nnet package. I have a 3 level ordered response (ordered()) variable and 4 predictors, 3 of which are numerical and one which is an ordered factor (also ordered()) with 5 levels (a, b, c, d, e). My question is in

I want to get the logLik to calculate McFadden.R2 ,ML.R2 and Cragg.Uhler.R2, but the value from multinom does not have logLik.So my quetion is : is logLik meaningful to multinomial logistic model from multinom?If it does, how can I get it? Thank you! ps: I konw VGAM has function to get the multinomial logistic model with logLik, but I prefer use the function from "official" R

Dear All. I have the following table that I want to analyze using multinom function freq segments sample 4271 Seg1 tumour 4311 Seg2 tumour 3515 Seg1 normal 3561 Seg2 normal I want to compare model with both factors to the one where only sample is present. model1=multinom(freq~segments+sample,data=table) model2=multinom(freq~ sample,data=table)

Dear all, I have run the confint() function according to below and I get the following error message: > confint(stepAIC.glm.spe.var.konn2.abund, level=0.95) Waiting for profiling to be done... Error: missing value where logical needed In addition: Warning message: NaNs produced in: sqrt((fm$deviance - OriginalDeviance)/DispersionParameter) or > confint(stepAIC.glm.spe.var.konn2.abund,

Dear all, I was trying to see how the function 'confint' is defined. Doing > confint function (object, parm, level = 0.95, ...) UseMethod("confint") <environment: namespace:stats> does not really enlighten me. How can I get to see the implementation (I guess it should be possible according to the general philosophy of the R project)? Thanks in advance S??ren

I would like to perform a multinomial logistic regression on a large data set, but do not know how. I've only thought of a few possibilities and write to seek advice and guidance on them or deepening or expanding my search. On smaller data sets, I have successfully loaded the data and issued commands such as: length(levels(factor(data$response))) [1] 6 # implies polychotomy library(nnet)

Full_Name: Soren Feodor Nielsen Version: 2.5.0 OS: linux-gnu Submission from: (NULL) (130.225.103.21) The print-out of xtable in the following example is wrong; instead of yielding the correct ci's for the second model it repeats the ci's from the first model. require(xtable) require(MASS) data(cats) b1<-lm(Hwt~Sex,cats) b2<-lm(Hwt~Sex+Bwt,cats)

Greetings all, I was in the process of creating a function to generate profile likelihood confidence intervals for a proportion using a binomial glm. This is a component of a larger function to generate and plot confidence intervals for proportions using the above, along with bootstrap (BCa), Wilson and Exact to visually demonstrate the variation across the methods to some folks. I had initially

Full_Name: Ben Bolker Version: 2.2.1 OS: Windows XP and 2000 Submission from: (NULL) (128.227.60.124) The following code, using confint() to try to get confidence intervals on an nls object that has been fitted with algorithm="port" reliably crashes R 2.2.0 and 2.2.1 with the latest version of MASS on a Windows 2000 and a Windows XP machine here. I *think* earlier versions of MASS

I see that "case weights" can be optioned in multinom(). I wanted to make sure I understand what weights= is expecting. My weights (not really mine but I'm stuck with them) are noninteger, are not scaled to sum to the sample size, and larger weights are intended to increase influence. The description of various types of weights is a perennial confusion for me; sorry. STS

It seems that confint.default returns an empty data.frame for objects of class mlm. For example: ``` nobs <- 20 set.seed(1234) # some fake data datf <- data.frame(x1=rnorm(nobs),x2=runif(nobs),y1=rnorm(nobs),y2=rnorm(nobs)) fitm <- lm(cbind(y1,y2) ~ x1 + x2,data=datf) confint(fitm) # returns: 2.5 % 97.5 % ``` I have seen proposed workarounds on stackoverflow and elsewhere, but

I am trying to create a LaTex table based on a multinom (nnet) object using the stargazer command. I have created a small data frame to demonstration the problem: data <- data.frame(age=1:21, hight=20:40, ed=c(1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3)) data$ed <- as.factor(data$ed) I then make a multinomial model using the command multinom from the nnet package: model <- multinom(ed ~

Hello, I am working with s.multinom() from the ade4package. I tried to plot the results of my %PCA (via the function dudi.pca()) followed by a MCOA (mcoa()). But when I give my variables to s.multinom() I get the following Error message: Error in FUN(1:14[[1L]], ...) : number 1 profile without data I know that it has to do with one (or two?) of the first arguments (kpca,sglmarkerfrq) but I just

I have RedHat linux 9 with R 1.8. I'm estimating models with multinom with a dependent variable that has 3 different values. Sometimes the models run fine and I can understand the results. Sometimes when I put in another variable, I see an indication that the estimation did work, but then I can't get the summary method to work. It's like this: > votemn1 <-

Following up on this -- on my system, I have 69 packages installed that appear to provide something like a confint() method: h <- help.search("confint", agrep = FALSE) p <- sort(unique(h$matches$Package)) length(p) ## [1] 69 p [1] "bamlss" "bbmle" "binom" "brglm2" [5] "broom"

Hi, I am searching for methods to compare regression models with an ordered categorical response variable (polr versus multinom). The pattern of predictions of both methods (using the same predictor variables) is quite different and the AIC is smaller for the multinom approach. I guess polr has more strict premises for the structure of the response variable, which methods can be used to test for
