Hello, I've executed the following predict.coxph function to enable prediction for new variable values (error is included).
*predict(cox_out,newdata=data.frame(Meter3.Value=100.001, Meter4.Value=200.001,Meter5.Value=300.001,Meter10.Value= 400.001,type="expected")) Error in model.frame.default(data = data.frame(Meter3.Value = 100.001, : variable lengths differ (found for 'Meter3.Value') 6: model.frame.default(data = data.frame(Meter3.Value = 100.001, Meter4.Value = 200.001, Meter5.Value = 300.001, Meter10.Value = 400.001, type = "expected"), formula = ads1S ~ Meter3.Value + Meter4.Value + Meter5.Value + Meter10.Value, na.action = function (object, ...) object)* I feel as though I've exhaustively researched the "variable length" problem, that is: Meter3.Value is Double, Numeric in both the original dataframe that created the cox_out object (i.e., type: list class:coxph) and Double, Numeric in the newdata dataframe below. Thanks for taking a look at this. Steve I've included all the code and two datasets at this location in Dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/2m51tl4l60iq9ru/0DkPYA1E-c 1. R_code_for_coxph.txt is the set of R functions used in the analysis 2. final_sheet_v3_2.xlsx is the input data set 3. cox_out.R is the coxph object I'm also curious if anyone has had any experience with the collapse parameter in predict(). Any insight here would be very helpful. I'm using the same data as above. I'm assuming, based on the documentation, that collapse is just a vector of the subject ID's to aggregate the hazard function by subject ID but it's not working. I created a simple dataframe called collapse: ASSET_ID 1 260 2 263 but the predict function is complaining about one of the covariates: *predict(cox_out,type="expected",collapse)* *Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : object 'Meter3.Value' not found* [[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.
