Hi everyone, while trying to use 'segmented' (R i386 2.15.0 for Windows 32bit OS) to determine the breakpoint I got stuck with an error message and I can't find solution. It is connected with psi value, and the error says:
Error in seg.glm.fit(y, XREG, Z, PSI, weights, offs, opz) : (Some) estimated psi out of its range This is the code I am using: library("segmented") curva<-read.table("lamintr1.txt", header=T) attach(curva) fit.glm<-glm(gpp~temp, weight=NULL, family=gaussian) plot(temp,gpp,xlab=expression("temp"), ylab="gpp",pch=15,cex=0.8,xlim=c(0,50), ylim=c(0,40)) o1<-glm(gpp ~ temp, weight=NULL, family=gaussian) os1<-segmented(o1, seg.Z=~temp, psi=15, control=seg.control(n.boot=0, display=T, it.max=5)) plot(os1, add=TRUE, res=TRUE, se=FALSE, show.gap=TRUE, linkinv = FALSE, res.col=1, rev.sgn=FALSE, const=0) summary(os1) And the most surprising fact is that it works for some of my data, eg: temp gpp 5 5.08050857592085 10 9.50809597873546 15 21.0206415558052 20 21.5340216521042 25 22.8455243983385 30 17.6106786978697 but not for the others, that fit within similar range (in what case I tired to change the psi value but it didn't help), eg: temp gpp 5 10.1494724447878 10 9.64730588470101 15 19.3439579009423 20 20.6756229089911 25 13.7902544619339 30 21.9355758560751 or temp gpp 5 8.64380785577685 10 9.47992535226006 15 16.7556554476544 20 14.5189937476639 25 20.6874556832793 30 17.5509059595314 I saw post with similar questons but none of them had the answer I am looking for. Would there be anyone that could help me with this? Thanks a lot for your time and help.
