After estimating models using apollo, for example the example model in https://www.apollochoicemodelling.com/f ... variates.r, I cannot extract the element gradientObs from the model object.
According to the manual (https://www.apollochoicemodelling.com/f ... Apollo.pdf, p.210), it should be included in the model object of all models.
For a current project, I require the gradient contributions of individual observations.
Am I missing something, or has this feature been removed?
Thanks in advance for your help.

- This forum is for questions related to the use of Apollo. We will answer some general choice modelling questions too, where appropriate, and time permitting. We cannot answer questions about how to estimate choice models with other software packages.
- There is a very detailed manual for Apollo available at http://www.ApolloChoiceModelling.com/manual.html. This contains detailed descriptions of the various Apollo functions, and numerous examples are available at http://www.ApolloChoiceModelling.com/examples.html. In addition, help files are available for all functions, using e.g. ?apollo_mnl
- Before asking a question on the forum, users are kindly requested to follow these steps:
- Check that the same issue has not already been addressed in the forum - there is a search tool.
- Ensure that the correct syntax has been used. For any function, detailed instructions are available directly in Apollo, e.g. by using ?apollo_mnl for apollo_mnl
- Check the frequently asked questions section on the Apollo website, which discusses some common issues/failures. Please see http://www.apollochoicemodelling.com/faq.html
- Make sure that R is using the latest official release of Apollo.
- Users can check which version they are running by entering packageVersion("apollo").
- Then check what is the latest full release (not development version) at http://www.ApolloChoiceModelling.com/code.html.
- To update to the latest official version, just enter install.packages("apollo"). To update to a development version, download the appropriate binary file from http://www.ApolloChoiceModelling.com/code.html, and install the package from file
- If the above steps do not resolve the issue, then users should follow these steps when posting a question:
- provide full details on the issue, including the entire code and output, including any error messages
- posts will not immediately appear on the forum, but will be checked by a moderator first. We check the forum at least twice a week. It may thus take a couple of days for your post to appear and before we reply. There is no need to submit the post multiple times.

Re: Element gradientObs not in model object
hi
this was in an earlier version of Apollo, and is not currently implemented. It will be added again in the near future, but requires a change to the bgw optimiser first

Re: Element gradientObs not in model object
Hello Stephane,
Thank you for your response and the clarification!
Is there currently any other way to extract the score contributions on the observational or the individual level?
Kind regards
Sebastian

Re: Element gradientObs not in model object
sorry, not at present. It should be possible in a month or so
