Dear Simon, Sorry for an incomplete listing of the question. #mgcv version is 1.3-29, R 2.6.1, windows XP #m.gam<-gam(mark~s(x)+s(y)+s(lstday2004)+s(ndvi2004)+s(slope)+s(elevation)+disbinary,family=binomial(logit),data=point) The above program's the core codes in my following loop programs. It works well if i run the above codes only one time for my dataset, but warnings will occur if i run many times for the following loop.
> while (j<1001) { + index=sample(ID, replace=F) + m.data$x=coords[index,]$x + m.data$y=coords[index,]$y + # For each permutation, we run the GAM using the optimal span for the above model m.gam + s.gam <-gam(mark~s(x)+s(y)+s(lstday2004)+s(ndvi2004)+s(slope)+s(elevation)+disbinary,,sp=c( 5.582647e-07,4.016504e-02,2.300424e-04,1.274065e+03,9.558236e-09, 1.868827e-08),family=binomial(logit),data=m.data) + permresults[,i]=predict.gam(s.gam) + i=i+1 + if (j%%100==0) print(i) + j=j+1 + } [1] 101 [1] 201 [1] 301 [1] 401 [1] 501 [1] 601 [1] 701 [1] 801 [1] 901 [1] 1001 warnings() over 50 > warnings() 1: In gam.fit(G, family = G$family, control = control, gamma = gamma, ... : fitted probabilities numerically 0 or 1 occurred ...................................... 14: In gam.fit(G, family = G$family, control = control, gamma = gamma, ... : Algorithm did not converge ..........................
