Hi,

I am trying to bootstrap the difference between each parameters among two non linear 
regression (distributed loss model) as
following:

# data.frame
> Raies[1:10,]
   Tps  SolA  Solb
1    0 32.97 35.92
2    0 32.01 31.35
3    1 21.73 22.03
4    1 23.73 18.53
5    2 19.68 18.28
6    2 18.56 16.79
7    3 18.79 15.61
8    3 17.60 13.43
9    4 14.83 12.76
10   4 17.33 14.91
etc...

# non linear model (work well)

RaiesLossA.nls<-nls(SolA~a/(1+b*Tps)^c,start=c(a=32,b=0.5,c=0.6))
RaiesLossB.nls<-nls(Solb~a/(1+b*Tps)^c,start=c(a=33,b=1.5,c=0.5))


# bootstrap
library(boot)

dif.param<-function(data,i){
RaiesLossA.nls<-nls(SolA[i]~a/(1+b*Tps[i])^c,start=c(a=31,b=0.5,c=0.6))
RaiesLossB.nls<-nls(Solb[i]~a/(1+b*Tps[i])^c,start=c(a=33,b=1.4,c=0.5))
RaiesLossA.nls$m$getPars()-RaiesLossB.nls$m$getPars()
}

>  myboot<-boot(Raies,dif.param,R=1000)

Error in numericDeriv(form[[3]], names(ind), env) :
        Missing value or an Infinity produced when evaluating the model

It seems that the init values (start=) may come not to be suitable while bootstraping. 
Data can be sent offline to whom wanted to
try on the dataset.

Any hint welcome!
