[R] nlme formula from model specification
Dear R-community, I'm analysing some noise using the nlme-package. I'm writing in order to get my usage of lme verified. In practise, a number of samples have been processed by a machine measuring the same signal at four different channels. I want to model the noise. I have taken the noise (the signal is from position 1 to 3500, and after that there is only noise). My data looks like this: channel.matrix: pos channel0 channel1 channel2 channel3 samplenumber 1 350183 1211 2 3502370 141 3 350391 1331 4 3504373 141 5 350565451 6 350670 1601 ... 495 399552991 496 3996246 101 497 399732771 498 399824391 499 3999316 111 500 400003671 2301 350114392 2302 3502334 132 2303 350341852 2304 350431 1022 2305 350523582 2306 350605822 ... The model is channel0 ~ alpha_i + eps_{i, j} + channel1 + channel2 + channel3 where i is sample number, j is position, and: alpha_i: fixed effect for each samplenumber eps_{i, j}: random effect, here with correlation structure as AR(1) channel1, ..., channel3: fixed effect for each channel not depending on samplenumber nor position (And then afterwards I would model channel1 ~ ... + channel2 + channel3 etc.) I then use this function call: channel.matrix.grouped - groupedData(channel0 ~ pos | samplenumber, data = channel.matrix) fit - lme(channel0 ~ pos + samplenumber + channel1 + channel2 + channel3, random = ~ pos | samplenumber, correlation = corAR1(value = 0.5, form = ~ pos | samplenumber), data = channel.matrix.grouped) Is that the right way to express the model in (n)lme-notation?

Re: [R] nlme formula from model specification
Dear Mikkel, You need to do some reading on terminology. In your model the fixed effects are channel 1, 2 and 3. samplenumber is a random effect and the error term is an error term The model you described has the notation below. You do not need to create the grouped data structure. lme(channel0 ~ pos + samplenumber + channel1 + channel2 + channel3, random = ~ 1 | samplenumber, correlation = corAR1(value = 0.5, form = ~ pos | samplenumber), data = channel.matrix) HTH, Thierry PS There is a dedicated mailing list for mixed models: R-sig-mixed-models ir.

Re: [R] nlme formula from model specification
Dear Thierry, Thanks for the quick answer. I'm moving this to r-sig-mixed-models (but also posting on r-help to notify). I reserved Mixed-effects models in S and S-PLUS by Pinheiro and Bates, New York : Springer, 2000. Do you know any other good references?
