R- Users: Can someone indicate what I am during wrong? This is a script essentially from
Venerable & Ripley's text on interpolating a surface with loess function but I can not get it to run. Thanks. John Lewis Professor McGill University Montreal library(MASS) library(modreg) data(topo) par(mfcol=c(2,2), pty="s") topo.loess <- loess(z ~ x * y, topo, degree=2, span = 0.25, normalize=F) topo.mar <- list(x = seq(0, 6.5, 0.1), y=seq(0, 6.5, 0.1)) topo.lo <- predict(topo.loess, expand.grid(topo.mar), se=T) lo.1 <- as.data.frame(topo.lo) lo.2 <- as.matrix(lo.1$fit) lo.3 <- as.matrix(lo.1$se.fit) contour(topo.mar$x,topo.mar$y,lo.2, levels = seq(700,1000,25), xlab="fit", ylab="") points(topo) contour(topo.mar$x,topo.mar$y,lo.3, levels = seq(5, 25, 5), xlab="standard error", ylab="") title("Loess degree = 2") points(topo) This is the error I keep getting. "Error in contour.default(topo.mar$x, topo.mar$y, lo.2, levels = seq(700, : no proper `z' matrix specified" I received this same message when I ran the script first without changing topo.lo from a list to data.frame etc. as seen below. contour(topo.mar$x,topo.mar$y,topo.lo$fit, levels = seq(700,1000,25), xlab="fit", ylab="") I checked the length of each variable and they are correct.
