[R] Maximum log likelihood estimates of the parameters of a nonlinear model.

2010-09-10 Thread Odette Gaston
Dear all,

Is it possible to generate AIC or something equivalent for nonlinear
model estimated based on maximum log likelihood l in R?
I used nls based on least squares to estimate, and therefore I cannot
assess the quality of models with AIC. nlme seems good for only mixed
models and mine is not mixed models.

res - nls(y ~ d*(x)^3+a*(x)^2+b*x+c, start=list(a=2, b=1,c=1,d=1), data=d)

If anybody does know a R-function to estimate nonlinear model based on
maximum log likelihood, please let me know.

Thanks for your help in advance!
Odette

Re: [R] Package installation failed

2009-01-24 Thread Odette Gaston
Dear Uwe and folks,

I had connections to CRAN daily and won't have problems for most packages,
but only some does. Installed directory is:
C:\Documents and Settings\R\library\downloaded_packages

 I do not have set library path except the R default. I tried to download
lme4 and packages that unable to install, but still same error message
came up.

error in normalizePath(path) :
path[1]: no such file to load

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 Hmmm, what does traceback() tell you at that point?
 Have you had a cionnection to CRAN and has something been downloaded?
 If so, to which directory?
 Where is R installed?
 Do you have set some library path other than the R default?

   Many thanks,

[R] Class and object problem

2008-12-24 Thread Odette Gaston
Dear all,

I have a problem with accessing class attributes. I was unable to solve this
yet, but someone may know how to solve it.
I'm trying to extract some information from the summary, and Akaike
weight has the desired value.
Object for a model fitted using the glmmML function from the
glmmML package:
result - glmmML(cbind (y, n-y)~ x+a+b+c, family = binomial, data, 
cluster)
library(MASS)
stepAIC(result)
Then calculated the delta AIC by hand (following is the best four).
model1 - 0.0
model2 - 1.8
model3 - 4.2
model4 - 6.2

Then followed equation as below:
*W -  exp(-0.5 * Delta) / sum(exp(-0.5 * Delta))*
However, result was always same value as [1] even each delta AIC is
different values.
I don't know why happened.

I've also tried Ben's AIC tab in the bbmle package under the Ben's
suggestion:
 summary - stepAIC(result)
 AICtab(summary)

When I try to run the code from within a package, error came up
as UseMethod(logLik) no method to use logLik.

 I've tried adding  slot -summary (result)
 slotName (slot)
but it didn't help, slotName is NULL.

Thanks for any kind of suggestions!

Re: [R] Akaike weight in R

2008-12-21 Thread Odette Gaston
Hi Graham,

Appreciate for your help, but actually I've already looked at this website,
and wasn't success yet. 1st, I cannot run *W = exp(-0.5 * Delta) /
sum(exp(-0.5 * Delta))* in the R.

 *W - exp(-0.5 * Delta) / sum(exp(-0.5 * Delta))*
*note: Delta means AIC difference between models.*
**
I don't know why but always showing 1 even I changed Delta.

Also, I couldn't find OAD package, where can I get one?
Would be wonderfully appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Odette

 You could have a look at this.

 Which is in the OAD package

Re: [R] generate random number

2008-11-21 Thread Odette Gaston
Hi Dimitris,

Appreciate for your reply with detailed information, many thanks!

I realize that generating random number won't be so simple more than I
expected, but got some hints from the advice. I am actually hoping to do a
parametric bootstrap likelihood test, because this is the way of testing for
glmm result what I understood. Following is what I would like to do:

# settings
n - number of samples
y - c(2 2 1 0 0 2 0 2 1 2 2 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 0 2 0 2 2)
x - c(22 22 24 21 26 18 23 21 17 15 22 24 21 17 26 15 16 13 22 15 15 23 16
23 18 37 22 30) #dependent=y
#independent=x

 Then, I would like to generate random number on glmm = random.y - rbinom
(num,n,p) to do this test. However, this only hypothesized binomial
distribution, not include normal one. In this case, how would you be able to
do? Apologize if I didn't understand correctly what you wrote and make
confuse you. Greatly appreciated if you help me. Any advice would be
wonderful!

Best reagards,
Odette
