Dear Friends. I found something very puzzling with constOptim(). When I change the parameters for ConstrOptim, the error messages do not seem to be consistent with each other:
> constrOptim(c(0.5,0.3,0.5), f=fit.error, gr=fit.error.grr, ui=ui,ci=ci) Error in constrOptim(c(0.5, 0.3, 0.5), f = fit.error, gr = fit.error.grr, : initial value not feasible > constrOptim(c(0.5,0.9,0.5), f=fit.error, gr=fit.error.grr, ui=ui,ci=ci) Error in constrOptim(c(0.5, 0.9, 0.5), f = fit.error, gr = fit.error.grr, : initial value not feasible > constrOptim(c(0.3,0.5,0.5), f=fit.error, gr=fit.error.grr, ui=ui,ci=ci) Error in f(theta, ...) : argument "lambda1" is missing, with no default I only changed the parameters, how come the lambda1 that is not missing in the first 2 cases suddently become missing? For your convenience, I put the complete code below: Best Wishes Yuchen Luo ######################################## rm(list = ls()) mat=5 rint=c(4.33,4.22,4.27,4.43,4.43,4.44,4.45,4.65,4.77,4.77) tot=rep(13319.17,10) sh=rep(1553656,10) sigmae=c(0.172239074,0.188209271,0.193703774,0.172659891,0.164427247,0.24602361,0.173555309,0.186701165,0.193150456, 0.1857315601) ss=c(56.49,56.39,56.55,57.49,57.37,55.02,56.02,54.35,54.09, 54.67) orange=rep(21.25,10) apple2=expression(rint*(1.0-rec)*(1.0-(pnorm(-lambda/2.0+log(((ss+(tot/sh*1000.0)*lbar)/(tot/sh*1000.0)/lbar*exp(lambda*lambda)))/lambda)-((ss+(tot/sh*1000.0)*lbar)/(tot/sh*1000.0)/lbar*exp(lambda*lambda))*pnorm(-lambda/2.0-log(((ss+(tot/sh*1000.0)*lbar)/(tot/sh*1000.0)/lbar*exp(lambda*lambda)))/lambda))+(exp(rint*(lambda*lambda/(sigmae*ss/(ss+lbar*(tot/sh*1000.0)))/(sigmae*ss/(ss+lbar*(tot/sh*1000.0)))))*((((ss+(tot/sh*1000.0)*lbar)/(tot/sh*1000.0)/lbar*exp(lambda*lambda))^(sqrt(0.25+2.0*rint/(sigmae*ss/(ss+lbar*(tot/sh*1000.0)))/(sigmae*ss/(ss+lbar*(tot/sh*1000.0))))+0.5)*pnorm(-log(((ss+(tot/sh*1000.0)*lbar)/(tot/sh*1000.0)/lbar*exp(lambda*lambda)))/((sigmae*ss/(ss+lbar*(tot/sh*1000.0)))*sqrt(mat+(lambda*lambda/(sigmae*ss/(ss+lbar*(tot/sh*1000.0)))/(sigmae*ss/(ss+lbar*(tot/sh*1000.0))))))-sqrt(0.25+2.0*rint/(sigmae*ss/(ss+lbar*(tot/sh*1000.0)))/(sigmae*ss/(ss+lbar*(tot/sh*1000.0))))*(sigmae*ss/(ss+lbar*(tot/sh*1000.0)))*sqrt(mat+(lambda*lambda/(sigmae*ss/(ss+lbar*(tot/sh*!
