Dear all,
I am stuck on the following problem with integrate(). I have been out of
luck using RSiteSearch()..
My function is
g2<-function(b,theta,xi,yi,sigma2){
xi<-cbind(1,xi)
eta<-drop(xi%*%theta)
num<-exp((eta + rep(b,length(eta)))*yi)
den<- 1 + exp(eta + rep(b,length(eta)))
result=(num/den)*exp((-b^2)/sigma2)/sqrt(2*pi*sigma2)
r=prod(result)
return(r)
}
And I am interested in evaluating the simple integral, but:
> integrate(g2,-2,2,theta=c(-2,3),xi=c(1,2,5,6),yi=c(1,0,1,1),sigma2=1)
Error in integrate(g2, -2, 2, theta = c(-2, 3), xi = c(1, 2, 5, 6), yi =
c(1, :
evaluation of function gave a result of wrong length
>
I have checked the integrand function
> valori<-seq(-2,2,l=30)
> risvalori<-NULL
> for(k in valori)
risvalori[length(risvalori)+1]<-g2(k,theta=c(-2,3),xi=c(1,2,5,6),yi=c(1,0,1,1),sigma2=1)
> plot(valori, risvalori)
And the integral exists..
Please, any comment is coming?
many thanks,
vito
