[R-sig-eco] convergence problems for zero-inflated model

2013-09-23 Thread Lee, Laura
Hi all! I'm using a zero-inflated model using the function 'zeroinfl' and running into convergence problems (system is computationally singular). How can I modify the code so it does not calculate a Hessian matrix? Thanks, Laura E-mail correspondence to and from this address is subject to t

Laura, Hacking the function is straightforward. Change this line: hessian <- control$hessian into hessian <- FALSE and then this one: vc <- -solve(as.matrix(fit$hessian)) as vc <- diag(1, length(fit$par), length(fit$par)) Then you take care of the unexported model_offset_2 function as pscl
