Two y-axes with mfrow() or layout()

If you need to have two y-axes, the solution is to use a combination of axis() and mtext(). For example:

x <- 1:5
y1 <- rnorm(5)
y2 <- rnorm(5,20)
par(mar=c(5,4,4,5)+.1)
plot(x,y1,type="l",col="red")
par(new=TRUE)
plot(x, y2,,type="l",col="blue",xaxt="n",yaxt="n",xlab="",ylab="")
axis(4)
mtext("y2",side=4,line=3)
legend("topleft",col=c("red","blue"),lty=1,legend=c("The variable y1","The variable y2"))

But if you want have several plots in the same graphs, using layout() or mfrow(), a problem occurs because the size of the second y-axe is not the same as the size of the first:

layout(matrix(1:4, ncol=2))
x <- 1:5
y1 <- rnorm(5)
par(mar=c(5,4,4,5)+.1)
plot(x,y1,type="l",col="red", ylab="Variable y1")
axis(4)
mtext("Variable y2",side=4,line=3)

The problem occurs because cex parameter for mtext is an absolut value and it does not use par("cex"). The solution is to force the use of par("cex"):

layout(matrix(1:4, ncol=2))
x <- 1:5
y1 <- rnorm(5)
par(mar=c(5,4,4,5)+.1)
plot(x,y1,type="l",col="red", ylab="Variable y1")
axis(4)
mtext("Variable y2",side=4,line=3, cex=par("cex"))

Standard error from Hessian Matrix... what can be done when problem occurs

An Hessian matrix is a square matrix of partial second order derivative. From the square-root of the inverse of the diagonal, it is possible to estimate the standard error of parameters. Let take an example: val=rnorm(100, mean=20, sd=5) # Return -ln L of values in val in Gaussian distribution with mean and sd in par fitnorm<-function(par, val) {   -sum(dnorm(val, par["mean"], par["sd"], log = TRUE)) } # Initial values for search p<-c(mean=20, sd=5) # fit the model result <- optim(par=p, fn=fitnorm, val=val, method="BFGS", hessian=TRUE) # Inverse the hessian matrix to get SE for each parameters mathessian <- result$hessian inversemathessian <- solve(mathessian) res <- sqrt(diag(inversemathessian)) # results data.frame(Mean=result$par, SE=res)   library(MASS) (r<-fitdistr(val, "normal")) It works well. However, the inverse of the matrix cannot be calculated if the second order derivative for some paramete

stepAIC from package MASS with AICc

Due to a bug in dropterm() and addterm() in package MASS, it is impossible to use AICc with stepAIC() . Here is a solution. Enter these commands and now you can use: stepAIC(g0, criteria="AICc") or stepAIC(g0, criteria="BIC") For example: datax <- data.frame(y=rnorm(100), x1=rnorm(100),                     x2=rnorm(100), x3=rnorm(100), x4=rnorm(100)) g0 <- glm(y ~ x1+x2+x3+x4, data=datax) gx_AICc <- stepAIC(g0, criteria="AICc") gx_AIC <- stepAIC(g0, criteria="AIC") gx_AIC <- stepAIC(g0, criteria="BIC")
