R 中的更新函数和变量访问

update function in R and variables access

我需要更新函数内的模型公式。这是一个例子:

A <- runif(n = 200)             #  generate some data
B <- runif(n = 200)
P <- 1/(1+exp(.5-A))            #  generate event probability
outcome <- runif(n = 200) < P   #  generate outcome

my.function <- function(model, data.to.add) {   # this is the function for updating the formula
  new.model <- update(object = model, formula. = ~ . + data.to.add)
  return (new.model)
}

test <- my.function(model = glm(outcome ~ B, family = binomial(link="logit")), data.to.add = A) 

不幸的是,执行此代码会引发如下错误:

Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : object 'data.to.add' not found 

似乎my.function无法将变量data.to.add的值提供给update函数。我可以做些什么来为另一个函数内的 update 函数提供正确的变量范围?

编辑:好的,如果要传递给要更新的函数的变量在全局环境中,那么您的解决方案很好,现在如果我必须在函数内定义变量,由于作用域较少,我会再次遇到错误变量的:

A <- runif(n = 200)             #  generate some data
P <- 1/(1+exp(.5-A))            #  generate event probability
outcome <- runif(n = 200) < P   #  generate outcome

nested.update<-function(model) {
  B<-runif(n = 200)
  my.function <- function(model, data.to.add) {   # this is the function for updating the formula
    data.to.add <- paste('. ~ . +', deparse(substitute(data.to.add)), sep = "")
    new.model <- update(object = model, formula. = data.to.add)
    return (new.model)
  }
  return(my.function(model = model, data.to.add = B))
}

nested.update(model = glm(outcome ~ A, family = binomial(link="logit")))

编辑

my.function <- function(model, data.to.add) {   # this is the function for updating the formula
  data.to.add <- sprintf('. ~ . + %s', deparse(substitute(data.to.add)))
  new.model <- update(object = model, formula. = data.to.add)
  return (new.model)
}

my.function(lm(mpg ~ wt, data = mtcars), disp)

# Call:
#   lm(formula = mpg ~ wt + disp, data = mtcars)
# 
# Coefficients:
#   (Intercept)           wt         disp  
#      34.96055     -3.35083     -0.01772 

my.function(lm(mpg ~ wt, data = mtcars), hp)

# Call:
#   lm(formula = mpg ~ wt + hp, data = mtcars)
# 
# Coefficients:
#   (Intercept)           wt           hp  
#      37.22727     -3.87783     -0.03177 

错误答案:

R 调度 update.formula 而不是默认的 update.default,因为您将公式传递给 update。参数名称是 oldnew。在 update.default 中,名称是 modelformula.,就像您现在使用的那样。

还使用变通方法将正确的变量名称输入到公式中

my.function <- function(model, data.to.add) {   # this is the function for updating the formula
  data.to.add <- sprintf('. ~ . + %s', deparse(substitute(data.to.add)))
  new.model <- update(old = model, new = data.to.add)
  return (new.model)
}

my.function(y ~ a, b)
# y ~ a + b
my.function(y ~ a, c)
# y ~ a + c
