Have you worked through the examples in the help pages for 'optim' and 'nlminb'? Also, 'nls', 'nlm', and 'mle{stats4}' provide related capabilities.
If you'd like further help from this groups, please submit another post. To increase your chances of a quick, informative response, I suggest you include a simple, self-contained example of something you tried that didn't produce what you expected, as suggested in the posting guide! "www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html". Best Wishes, Spencer Graves Xiaodong Jin wrote: > How to convert the following ms() in Splus to Optim in R?
