Re: [R] How can I estimate a Box-Cox function with R?

2009-05-22 Thread Ikerne del Valle



	Thanks Gregory. I see that that with 
boxcox.lm() the optimal lambda is obtained and 
plotted against log-likelihood.


library(MASS)
boxcox(Volume ~ log(Height) + log(Girth), data = trees,
   lambda = seq(-0.25, 0.25, length = 10))

But has how can I see the fit of the same linear 
model with the optimal BoxCox transformation, the 
standard error for lambda etc.?


Best. Ikerne.



Have you looked at the boxcox function in the 
MASS package?  That may do what you want.

Dear Fernando and all:

Thanks for your help. Now works. This is
 a training example to learn how to estimate a
 Box-Cox (right and/or left side transformations)
 with R (as LIMDEP does) in order to compare these
 estimations with the ones derived by applying
 NLS, ones the dependent variable has been divided
 by its geometric mean (see below) as suggested by
 (Zarembka (1974) and Spitzer (1984). However the
 example of the demand of money seems not to work.
 Any idea to face the error messages or how to
 estimate a Box-Cox function with R?

Best regards,
Ikerne

[R] nlrwr package. Error when fitting the optimal Box-Cox transformation with two variables

2009-05-19 Thread Ikerne del Valle



Dear all:

	I'm trying to fit the optimal Box-Cox 
transformation related to nls (see the code 
below) for the demand of money data in Green (3th 
Edition) but in the last step R gives the next 
error message.
	Error en 
`[.data.frame`(eval(object$data), , 
as.character(formula(object)[[2]])[2]) :

  undefined columns selected.
¿Any idea to solve the problem?
Thanks in advance,
