Thanks for kind help from Steven and Christos last time. Now I got new
problem regarding the codes for calculating the "weights" (w) in "AIC ()
function".
The original code is as below:
> getAnywhere("logLik.lm")
function (object, REML = FALSE, ...)
{
res <- object$residuals
p <- object$rank
N <- length(res)
if (is.null(w <- object$weights)) {
w <- rep.int(1, N)
} else {
excl <- w == 0
if (any(excl)) {
res <- res[!excl]
N <- length(res)
w <- w[!excl]
}
}
Now my question is, if I use "lm()" function to fit a multiple linear
regression model, such as "mod.fit<-lm(formula = Y~ X1 + X2 + X3, data =
set1)", what code could I use to extract the "weights" (w) out? or how to
calculate the weights(w) shown in above codes? Thanks for your time and kind
help!
