I also used moran.test under debug() as you suggested but if I understood
the output correctly, the error message only comes up at the end.
I have attached the full debug report below.
lag.listw(Network,x) seems to work fine although the values are very, very
small:
y<-lag.listw(Network,x)
summary(y)
Min. 1st Qu. Median Mean 3rd Qu. Max.
1.497e-310 1.200e-300 1.698e-300 1.094e-226 2.414e-300 1.994e-223
This is a bit surprising to me as the values of x are several orders of
magnitude larger:
summary(x)
Min. 1st Qu. Median Mean 3rd Qu. Max.
1082 1543 2119 2250 2886 3965

Subject: Re: [R-sig-Geo] Problem with moran.test function
Well, Moran's I is -Inf, and the analytical variance is NA, so something is
not right. The problem could lie in x, Network, or the lag of x (when x and
Network are OK but their combination is unhappy). Can you run moran.test()
under debug() and check which values lead the value of I to go to -Inf? Is
this what is going on:
data(columbus)
set.seed(1)
x <- log(rpois(n=49, 2))
x
moran.test(x, nb2listw(col.gal.nb))
where the current spdep release fails reporting:
Error in lag.listw(listw, z, zero.policy = zero.policy, NAOK =
NAOK): Variable contains non-finite values
which was a fix introduced four weeks ago, changed to a test on |Inf| from a
test on NA:
https://r-forge.r-project.org/scm/viewvc.php/pkg/src/lagw.c?root=spdep&r1=244&r2=282
If you update spdep, you'll pick up the improvement (made thanks to a bug
report by Matias Mayor Fernandez), and if this is the case, the problem is
in the x.
Hope this helps,
Roger
