我正在尝试在57个不同的时间点使用重复测量来运行线性混合模型。但是我不断收到错误消息:
Error in solve.default(estimates[dimE[1L] - (p:1), dimE[2L] - (p:1), drop = FALSE]) :
系统在计算上是奇异的:倒数条件数= 7.7782e-18
这是什么意思？
我的代码是这样的:
model.dataset = data.frame(TimepointM=timepoint,SubjectM=sample,GeneM=gene)
library("nlme")
model = lme(score ~ TimepointM + GeneM,data=model.dataset,random = ~1|SubjectM)
数据如下:

最佳答案
tl; dr 我认为您的问题是每个人在每个时间点的响应值(分数)都完全相同(即，个体内的完美同质性)，因此随机效应项可以完全解释数据；固定效果没有任何剩余。您确定不想使用gene作为您的响应变量吗？ (经过一堆建模尝试后发现，通过绘制该死的数据，每个人都应该首先做的事情……)
## simplifying names etc. slightly
dd <- data.frame(timepoint,sample,gene,score,)
library("nlme")
m0 <- lme(score ~ timepoint + gene, data=dd,
random = ~1|sample)
## reproduces error
作为第一步检查，让我们看看固定效果模型中是否有单数的内容:
lm(score~timepoint+gene,dd)
##
## Call:
## lm(formula = score ~ timepoint + gene, data = dd)
##
## Coefficients:
## (Intercept) timepoint gene
## 5.414652 -0.004064 -0.024485
不，那很好。
让我们在
lme4中尝试一下:library(lme4)
m1 <- lmer(score ~ timepoint + gene + (1|sample), data=dd)
## Error in fn(x, ...) : Downdated VtV is not positive definite
让我们尝试缩放和集中数据-有时会有所帮助:
ddsc <- transform(dd,
timepoint=scale(timepoint),
gene=scale(gene))
lme仍然失败:m0sc <- lme(score ~ timepoint + gene, data=ddsc,
random = ~1|sample)
lmer可以-有点!m1sc <- lmer(score ~ timepoint + gene + (1|sample), data=ddsc)
## Warning message:
## In checkConv(attr(opt, "derivs"), opt$par, ctrl = control$checkConv, :
## Model is nearly unidentifiable: very large eigenvalue
## - Rescale variables?
结果给出了几乎为零的参数系数。 (剩余方差也非常小。)
## m1sc
## Linear mixed model fit by REML ['lmerMod']
## Formula: score ~ timepoint + gene + (1 | sample)
## Data: ddsc
## REML criterion at convergence: -9062.721
## Random effects:
## Groups Name Std.Dev.
## sample (Intercept) 7.838e-01
## Residual 3.344e-07
## Number of obs: 348, groups: sample, 8
## Fixed Effects:
## (Intercept) timepoint gene
## 5.714e+00 -4.194e-16 -1.032e-14
在这一点上，我只能想到几种可能性:
library(ggplot2); theme_set(theme_bw())
ggplot(dd,aes(timepoint,score,group=sample,colour=gene))+
geom_point(size=4)+
geom_line(colour="red",alpha=0.5)
啊哈!
