[R] Variance component estimation in glmmPQL

2012-11-27 Thread nblarson
Hi all, I've been attempting to fit a logistic glmm using glmmPQL in order to estimate variance components for a score test, where the model is of the form logit(mu) = X*a+ Z1*b1 + Z2*b2. Z1 and Z2 are actually reduced rank square root matrices of the assumed covariance structure (up to a constan

Flip date and q in your formula, you've got them backwards from what you've said you're trying to model. armstrwa wrote: > > > Yeah, I did look at the help(loess) page, but I wasn't really sure what to > do with that. I was inputting it as: > >> test<-loess(date ~ q,data.frame(date,q),span=0.

64 Bit R w/JAGS seems to be stalling out as well, I ran a test run of 100 iterations and it's been hanging for 8 hours so that doesn't seem to be the solution. I'll take a look at PYMC. That CppBUGS package looks pretty interesting, I'll keep my eye on it. My C programming book arrives today fro

Re: [R] Finding coordinates for maximum of a function

2011-03-15 Thread nblarson
That actually won't work. max(y) will give a value, not a coordinate, so x[max(y)] is definitely not what you want. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Finding-coordinates-for-maximum-of-a-function-tp3355369p3356483.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nab

This is where which.max() comes in handy n<-length(x) x.c<-rep(0,n) for(i in 1:n){ x.c[i]<-which.max[y1] } x.c is then a vector of x coordinates for the maximum for columns y1,y2,...,yn -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Finding-coordinates-for-maximum-of-a-function-t

Re: [R] creating character vector

2011-03-14 Thread nblarson
The reason this doesn't work is because R thinks that in the command as.character(c(first,second)) that first and second are variables that exist within the working environment. Since they don't (I assume), R doesn't know what to do with the command. Using the quotes indicates to R that you're s

Has anybody had issues running MCMC (either BUGS or JAGS) on data sets of this magnitude (ie 30k x 20-30). I've been trying to run a hierarchical random effects model on expression data but R completely stalls out on jobs run on 32bit R on our server (doesn't respond...then eventually crashes out
