Subject: using nls to fit a curve to data
Hi,
I am trying to fit a curve to data. My command line is:
model10=nls(offspring~((A*c^k)/gamma(k))*((degdays-alpha)^(k-1))*exp(-c*(degdays-alpha)),
start=list(A=30,k=2,c=.018,alpha=131))
I get the error message:
Error in numericDeriv(form[[3]], names(ind), env) :
Missing value or an infinity produced when evaluating the model
In addition: Warning message:
full precision was not achieved in 'gammafn'
My starting values yield a curve very similar t to other models which I
fitted successfully. So any suggestions? I've tried different starting
values.
