[R] missing values and gam (was: how to handle missing values)

2003-07-17 Thread Tor A Strand
Thank you for all the responses on generalized additive models(gam) and
missing values. I am now able set up a model using gam and have a certain
understanding of how R deals with missing values.

The problem is, however, I am still not able to a gam model that is from a
dataset that contains missing values.

The function

C-gam(depvar~var1+var2+s(var3), data=dataset)
Returns the errors

Error in na.omit.default() : Argument object is missing, with no default

Again, can anyone help a newbie.

Tor

mgcv 0.9 will handle missing values properly (provided you are happy that 
dropping them is 'proper'). There is a pre-release version at:

www.stats.gla.ac.uk/~simon/simon/mgcv.html

(it is a pre-release version, so there will be bugs, reports of which
gratefully received!)
