Not sure what you mean. yi <- c(2,3,2,4,3,6) xi <- c(1,4,3,2,4,5)
res <- lm(yi ~ xi) hatvalues(res) X <- cbind(1, xi) diag( X%*%solve(t(X)%*%X)%*%t(X) ) Same result.

Hello: I am trying to understand the method 'hatvalues(...)', which returns something similar to the diagonals of the plain vanilla hat matrix [X(X'X)^(-1)X'], but not quite. A Fortran programmer I am not, but tracing through the code it looks like perhaps some sort of correction based on the notion of 'leave-one-out' variance is being applied. Whatever the difference, in simulations 'hatvalues' appears to perform much better in the context of identifying outiers using Cook's Distance than the diagonals of the plain vanilla hat matrix. (As in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cook's_distance). Would prefer to understand a little more when using this method. I have downloaded the freely available references cited in the help and am in the process of digesting them. If someone with knowledge could offer a pointer on the most efficient way to get at why 'hatvalues' does what it does, that would be great. Thanks, Jean Yarrington Independent consultant. ______________________________________________ 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.
