Relevant Bugs Ids : 7987, 7989 H is a 100x100 singular but symmetric matrix (a matrix defining the neighbourhood structure for a spatial data) available from.. http://www.stat.ohio-state.edu/~pkapat/miscl/bugMatrix.RData > load(file="bugMatrix.RData") > ls() "H" > I <- diag(rep(1,100)) > g <- 0.1318467 > M <- I - g*H > y <- eigen(M) > y$vec[,91] ## all NaNs Interestingly, as suggested in bug id 7989, this is very sensitive to the scaling factor g. The error dissapears with even a slightly different value of g, like 0.131846 instead of 0.1318467. I run a Debian/testing (2.6.8-11 kernel) on Dell P4 i386 arch. This error does not occur on Windows XP (R 2.1.1) or Red Hat Enterprise GNU/Linux 2.6.9-11 running R 2.1.1. I have tried on both of them. Seems like a wiered bug !! Kapat Dept. of Stat.
