Hello, I'm trying to use the bam() function in the R mgcv package for a large set of grouped binary data. However, I have found that this function does not take data in the format of cbind(numerator, denominator) on the left hand side of the formula. As an example, consider the following
dat1 <- data.frame(id=rep(1:6, each=3), num=rbinom(18, size=10, prob=0.8), den=rbinom(18, size=5, prob=0.5), x=rnorm(18)) m1.1 <- gam(cbind(num, den) ~ x+s(id, bs="re"), data=dat1, family=binomial) m2.1 <- bam(cbind(num, den) ~x+ s(id, bs="re"), data=dat1, family=binomial) Running the above results in > dat1 <- data.frame(id=rep(1:6, each=3), num=rbinom(18, size=10, prob=0.8), > den=rbinom(18, size=5, prob=0.5), x=rnorm(18)) > m1.1 <- gam(cbind(num, den) ~ x+s(id, bs="re"), data=dat1, family=binomial) > m2.1 <- bam(cbind(num, den) ~x+ s(id, bs="re"), data=dat1, family=binomial) Error in dev.resids(y, mu, weights) : argument mu must be a numeric vector of length 1 or length 36 Is this a known issue? If so, is there a way to handle it?
