Julia 中缺少值的 MixedModel

Question

当响应变量具有 missing 时，无法运行 MixedModel。 我得到ERROR: KeyError: key missing not found

以前 Julia 可以毫无问题地运行它。

我使用 CSV.read 加载我的数据，但下面的示例使用来自名为 languageR 的 R 包中的数据集

using DataFrames, MixedModels, GLM, RDatasets, RData, RCall, Missings, CSV

#load data
lexdec = rcopy(R"languageR::lexdec")

#replace one value with missing
lexdec.rt = recode(lexdec.RT, 6.905753 => missing)

#run mixedmodel
fm = fit(MixedModel, @formula(rt ~ 1 + Class*NativeLanguage*Frequency + Trial + (1|Subject) + (1|Word)), lexdec)

ERROR: KeyError: key missing not found
#plus a long Stacktrace

如果自变量缺失（比如频率），则会出现同样的错误。想要一个可以解决这两种情况下缺失的解决方案。

Answer 1

MixedModels 的开发版本可以处理缺失值。看起来它只是删除了缺少值的行。这与R 中的na.omit 相同。

#install development version
add https://github.com/dmbates/MixedModels.jl

julia> #run mixedmodel
       fm = fit(MixedModel, @formula(rt ~ 1 + Class*NativeLanguage*Frequency + Trial + (1|Subject) + (1|Word)), lexdec)
Linear mixed model fit by maximum likelihood
 rt ~ 1 + Class + NativeLanguage + Frequency + Trial + Class & NativeLanguage + Class & Frequency + NativeLanguage & Frequency + Class & NativeLanguage & Frequency + (1 | Subject) + (1 | Word)
