Dear list members, when running ML optimization of constrained models using BiSSE, I get the following error message for one optimization:
fit.l5 <- find.mle(lik.l5, p_ML[argnames(lik.l5 )]) error in all.branches.matrix(pars, cache, initial.conditions, branches, : , Bad initial conditions: calculation failure along branches? I quite don't understand why I get this error message nor how to fix it. I used ML estimates of the full model as starting points. Any idea to figure out the problem would be greatly acknowledged....although it's friday :) !! Thanks and best regards, Lena [[alternative HTML version deleted]] _______________________________________________ R-sig-phylo mailing list - R-sig-phylo@r-project.org https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-phylo Searchable archive at http://www.mail-archive.com/r-sig-phylo@r-project.org/
