[R] execute functions in .dll

2010-03-19 Thread Tord Snäll
Dear all,
We have a data base with huge amounts of data that we want analysts/scientists 
to be able to use. These data can be accessed through the internet thanks to a 
SOAP based web service that we have set up. We have also developed a web 
service client using Dot.NET framework, which is built into a .dll file. 

I now wonder, do you know of a way to execute the functions in .dll files from 
within R?

Thanks,
Tord

[R] opposite estimates from zeroinfl() and hurdle()

2009-10-23 Thread Tord Snäll

Dear all,
A question related to the following has been asked on R-help before, but 
I could not find any answer to it. Input will be much appreciated.


I got an unexpected sign of the slope parameter associated with a 
covariate (diam) using zeroinfl(). It led me to compare the estimates 
given by zeroinfl() and hurdle():


The (significant) negative estimate here is surprising, given the 
biology of the species:


 summary(zeroinfl(bnl ~ 1| diam, dist = poisson, data = valdaekar, 
EM = TRUE))

Count model coefficients (poisson with log link):
 Estimate Std. Error z value Pr(|z|)   (Intercept)  3.74604
0.02635   142.2   2e-16 ***


Zero-inflation model coefficients (binomial with logit link):
 Estimate Std. Error z value Pr(|z|)  (Intercept)  21.7510 
7.6525   2.842  0.00448 **

diam -1.1437 0.3941  -2.902  0.00371 **

Number of iterations in BFGS optimization: 1
Log-likelihood: -582.8 on 3 Df


The hurdle model gives the same estimates, but with opposite (and 
expected) signs of the parameters:


summary(hurdle(bnl ~ 1| diam, dist = poisson, data = valdaekar))
Count model coefficients (truncated poisson with log link):
 Estimate Std. Error z value Pr(|z|)   (Intercept)  3.74604
0.02635   142.2   2e-16 ***

Zero hurdle model coefficients (binomial with logit link):
 Estimate Std. Error z value Pr(|z|)  (Intercept) -21.7510 
7.6525  -2.842  0.00448 **

diam  1.1437 0.3941   2.902  0.00371 **
---
Signif. codes:  0 '***' 0.001 '**' 0.01 '*' 0.05 '.' 0.1 ' ' 1

Number of iterations in BFGS optimization: 8
Log-likelihood: -582.8 on 3 Df

Why is this so?

thanks,
