Dear listers, I am doing an time-series analysis on the relationship fo daily air pollutants and mortality using generalized additive models. I have two questions as followed:
Question 1: How can I get the relative risk estimates from the smoothing spines ? I have found a paper which focused on this problem. The paper is "np.OR: an s-plus function for pointwise nonparametric estimation of odds ratios of continuous predictors". Please see the attached files. Question 2: Is there some functions in package mgcv ? If not, can I use the method described in the above reference? Thanks a lot in advance Yanshen Zhang http://www.nabble.com/file/p14165792/an%2Bs-plus%2Bfunction%2Bfor%2Bpointwise%2Bnonparametric%2Bestimation%2Bof%2Bodds-ratios%2Bof%2Bcontinuous%2Bpredictors.pdf an+s-plus+function+for+pointwise+nonparametric+estimation+of+odds-ratios+of+continuous+predictors.pdf http://www.nabble.com/file/p14165792/an%2Bs-plus%2Bfunction%2Bfor%2Bpointwise%2Bnonparametric%2Bestimation%2Bof%2Bodds-ratios%2Bof%2Bcontinuous%2Bpredictors.pdf an+s-plus+function+for+pointwise+nonparametric+estimation+of+odds-ratios+of+continuous+predictors.pdf -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/pointwise-nonparametric-estimation-of-odds-ratios-of-continuous-predictors-tf4947653.html#a14165792 Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
