Dear all, I run the GAMs (generalized additive models) in gam(mgcv) using the following codes.
m.gam <-gam(mark~s(x)+s(y)+s(lstday2004)+s(ndvi2004)+s(slope)+s(elevation)+disbinary,family=binomial(logit),data=point) And two repeated warnings appeared. Warnings: 1: In gam.fit(G, family = G$family, control = control, gamma = gamma, ... : Algorithm did not converge 2: In gam.fit(G, family = G$family, control = control, gamma = gamma, ... : fitted probabilities numerically 0 or 1 occurred Q1: For warning1, could it be solved by changing the value of mgcv.toloptions for gam.control(mgcv.tol=1e-7)? Q1: For warning2, is there any impact for the results if the "fitted probabilities numerically 0 or 1 occurred" ? How can i solve it? I didn't try the possible solutions for them, because it took such a longer time to run the whole programs. Could anybody suggest their solutions? Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks. -- With Kind Regards, oooO::::::::: (..)::::::::: :\.(:::Oooo:: ::\_)::(..):: :::::::)./::: ::::::(_/:::: ::::::::::::: [***********************************************************************] Zhi Jie,Zhang ,PHD Tel:+86-21-54237149 Dept. of Epidemiology,School of Public Health,Fudan University Address:No. 138 Yi Xue Yuan Road,Shanghai,China Postcode:200032 Email:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Website: www.statABC.com [***********************************************************************] oooO::::::::: (..)::::::::: :\.(:::Oooo:: ::\_)::(..):: :::::::)./::: ::::::(_/:::: ::::::::::::: [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ 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.
