I am having a couple of problems someone may be able to cast some light on.
Question 1: I am making a logistic model but when i do this: glm.model = glm(as.factor(form$finished) ~ ., family=binomial, data=form[1:150000,]) I get this: Error in model.frame(formula, rownames, variables, varnames, extras, extranames, : variable lengths differ (found for 'barrier') which is very strange because when I name the predictive factors like this: glm.model = glm(as.factor(form$finished) ~ form$first + form$second + form$third + form$barrier, family=binomial, data=form[1:150000,]) It produces a model: Call: glm(formula = as.factor(form$finished) ~ form$first + form$second + form$third + form$barrier, family = binomial, data = form[1:150000, ]) Deviance Residuals: Min 1Q Median 3Q Max -3.0884 -0.4932 -0.3951 -0.3006 2.7135 Coefficients: Estimate Std. Error z value Pr(>|z|) (Intercept) -2.957831 0.021446 -137.920 < 2e-16 *** form$first 0.624463 0.078036 8.002 1.22e-15 *** form$second 0.754057 0.080787 9.334 < 2e-16 *** form$third 7.718261 0.078532 98.281 < 2e-16 *** form$barrier -0.058185 0.002175 -26.751 < 2e-16 *** --- Signif. codes: 0 '***' 0.001 '**' 0.01 '*' 0.05 '.' 0.1 ' ' 1 (Dispersion parameter for binomial family taken to be 1) Null deviance: 144850 on 215213 degrees of freedom Residual deviance: 133292 on 215209 degrees of freedom AIC: 133302 Number of Fisher Scoring iterations: 5 Any idea why the first glm call doesn;t work? Second Question: Now I want to predict so i do this: pred <- predict(glm.model,data=form[150001:20000,],type="response") but when I try to use it I get this: > pred <- predict(glm.model,data=form[150001:200000,],type="response") > t = table(pred,form$finished[150001:200000]) Error in table(pred, form$finished[150001:2e+05]) : all arguments must have the same length and when I do this it confirms my pred is not 50000 long! > length(pred) [1] 215214 It doesn't look as though my slection of rows has worked at all. Anyone know why?
