gpuLm
is used to fit linear models using a
GPU enabled QR decomposition.
It can be used to carry out regression,
single stratum analysis of variance and
analysis of covariance (although aov
may provide a more
convenient interface for these).
Note: The QR decomposition employed by gpuLm
is optimized for speed
and uses minimal pivoting. If rank-revealing pivot is desired, then the
function gpuQR
, should be used. The most reliable
determination of rank, however, will be obtained with the svd
command.

Models for lm
are specified symbolically. A typical model has
the form response ~ terms
where response
is the (numeric)
response vector and terms
is a series of terms which specifies a
linear predictor for response
. A terms specification of the form
first + second
indicates all the terms in first
together
with all the terms in second
with duplicates removed. A
specification of the form first:second
indicates the set of
terms obtained by taking the interactions of all terms in first
with all terms in second
. The specification first*second
indicates the cross of first
and second
. This is
the same as first + second + first:second
.
If the formula includes an offset
, this is evaluated and
subtracted from the response.
If response
is a matrix a linear model is fitted separately by
least-squares to each column of the matrix.
See model.matrix
for some further details. The terms in
the formula will be re-ordered so that main effects come first,
followed by the interactions, all second-order, all third-order and so
on: to avoid this pass a terms
object as the formula (see
aov
and demo(glm.vr)
for an example).
A formula has an implied intercept term. To remove this use either
y ~ x - 1
or y ~ 0 + x
. See formula
for
more details of allowed formulae.
Non-NULL
weights
can be used to indicate that different
observations have different variances (with the values in
weights
being inversely proportional to the variances); or
equivalently, when the elements of weights
are positive
integers w_i, that each response y_i is the mean of
w_i unit-weight observations (including the case that there are
w_i observations equal to y_i and the data have been
summarized).
lm
calls the lower level functions lm.fit
, etc,
see below, for the actual numerical computations. For programming
only, you may consider doing likewise.
All of weights
, subset
and offset
are evaluated
in the same way as variables in formula
, that is first in
data
and then in the environment of formula
.
lm
returns an object of class
"lm"
or for
multiple responses of class c("mlm", "lm")
.
The functions summary
and anova
are used to
obtain and print a summary and analysis of variance table of the
results. The generic accessor functions coefficients
,
effects
, fitted.values
and residuals
extract
various useful features of the value returned by lm
.
An object of class "lm"
is a list containing at least the
following components:
coefficients |
a named vector of coefficients |
residuals |
the residuals, that is response minus fitted values. |
fitted.values |
the fitted mean values. |
rank |
the numeric rank of the fitted linear model. |
weights |
(only for weighted fits) the specified weights. |
df.residual |
the residual degrees of freedom. |
call |
the matched call. |
terms |
the |
contrasts |
(only where relevant) the contrasts used. |
xlevels |
(only where relevant) a record of the levels of the factors used in fitting. |
offset |
the offset used (missing if none were used). |
y |
if requested, the response used. |
x |
if requested, the model matrix used. |
model |
if requested (the default), the model frame used. |
na.action |
(where relevant) information returned by
|
In addition, non-null fits will have components assign
,
effects
and (unless not requested) qr
relating to the linear
fit, for use by extractor functions such as summary
and
effects
.
Considerable care is needed when using lm
with time series.
Unless na.action = NULL
, the time series attributes are
stripped from the variables before the regression is done. (This is
necessary as omitting NA
s would invalidate the time series
attributes, and if NA
s are omitted in the middle of the series
the result would no longer be a regular time series.)
Even if the time series attributes are retained, they are not used to
line up series, so that the time shift of a lagged or differenced
regressor would be ignored. It is good practice to prepare a
data
argument by ts.intersect(..., dframe = TRUE)
,
then apply a suitable na.action
to that data frame and call
gpuLm
with na.action = NULL
so that residuals and fitted
values are time series.
Offsets specified by offset
will not be included in predictions
by predict.lm
, whereas those specified by an offset term
in the formula will be.
The design was inspired by the S function of the same name described in Chambers (1992). The implementation of model formula by Ross Ihaka was based on Wilkinson & Rogers (1973).
This function was adapted for Nvidia's CUDA–supporting GPGPUs by
Mark Seligman at Rapid Biologics LLC.
