It seems this was intended to be distance <- lapply(covar, function(el, metric) dist(as.matrix(el), method=metric), metric = metric)
similarly to Variogram.lme. Thank you for the report: it will be fixed in the next release of nlme. On Wed, 24 Dec 2008, agale...@umich.edu wrote:
Hello, 1. Illustrating example: sessionInfo at the end of this email library(nlme) fm1 <- gls(weight ~ Time * Diet, BodyWeight) Variogram(fm1, form = ~ Time | Rat)[1:10,] Error in FUN(X[[1L]], ...) : unused argument(s) (method = "euclidean") 2. It appears that the error is caused by the statement: distance <- lapply(covar, function(el, metric) dist(as.matrix(el), metric), method = metric) in Variogram.gls() method 3. After replacing the statement in question with: distance <- lapply(covar, function(el) dist(as.matrix(el), metric)) Variogram.gls appears to work properly as shown below. library(nlme) fm1 <- gls(weight ~ Time * Diet, BodyWeight) Variogram(fm1, form = ~ Time | Rat)[1:10,] variog dist n.pairs 1 0.007239522 1 16 2 0.014584634 6 16 3 0.014207936 7 144 4 0.018442267 8 16 5 0.011128505 13 16 6 0.019910082 14 128 7 0.027072311 15 16 8 0.034140379 20 16 9 0.028320657 21 112 10 0.037525507 22 16 Happy Holiday Season and Happy New Year Andrzej Galecki University of Michigan > sessionInfo() R version 2.7.2 (2008-08-25) i386-pc-mingw32 locale: LC_COLLATE=English_United States.1252;LC_CTYPE=English_United States.1252;LC_MONETARY=English_United States.1252;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=English_United States.1252 attached base packages: [1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base other attached packages: [1] nlme_3.1-89 loaded via a namespace (and not attached): [1] grid_2.7.2 lattice_0.17-13 tools_2.7.2 ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
