Create a Model List Object
glmlist
creates a glmlist
object containing a list of fitted glm
objects with their names.
loglmlist
does the same for loglm
objects.
The intention is to provide object classes to facilitate model comparison,
extraction, summary and plotting of model components, etc., perhaps using
lapply
or similar.
There exists a anova.glm
method for glmlist
objects. Here,
a coef
method is also defined, collecting the coefficients from all models in
a single object of type determined by result
.
glmlist(...) loglmlist(...) ## S3 method for class 'glmlist' coef(object, result=c("list", "matrix", "data.frame"), ...)
... |
One or more model objects, as appropriate to the function,
optionally assigned names as in |
object |
a |
result |
type of the result to be returned |
The arguments to glmlist
or loglmlist
are of the form value
or name=value
.
Any objects which do not inherit the appropriate class glm
or loglm
are excluded, with a warning.
In the coef
method, coefficients from the different models are matched by name in the list of
unique names across all models.
An object of class glmlist
loglmlist
, just like a list
,
except that each model is given a name
attribute.

The function llist
in package Hmisc
is similar, but perplexingly
more general.
The function anova.glm
also handles glmlist objects
LRstats
gives LR statistics and tests for a glmlist
object.
data(Mental) indep <- glm(Freq ~ mental+ses, family = poisson, data = Mental) Cscore <- as.numeric(Mental$ses) Rscore <- as.numeric(Mental$mental) coleff <- glm(Freq ~ mental + ses + Rscore:ses, family = poisson, data = Mental) roweff <- glm(Freq ~ mental + ses + mental:Cscore, family = poisson, data = Mental) linlin <- glm(Freq ~ mental + ses + Rscore:Cscore, family = poisson, data = Mental) # use object names mods <- glmlist(indep, coleff, roweff, linlin) names(mods) # assign new names mods <- glmlist(Indep=indep, Col=coleff, Row=roweff, LinxLin=linlin) names(mods) LRstats(mods) coef(mods, result='data.frame') #extract model components unlist(lapply(mods, deviance)) res <- lapply(mods, residuals) boxplot(as.data.frame(res), main="Residuals from various models")
