glmmTMB_phylo: Error in Matrix::rankMatrix(TMBStruc$data.tmb[[whichX]]) : length(d <- dim(x)) == 2 is not TRUE

I am trying to run the following model:

mod1<- phylo_glmmTMB(response ~ sv1 + # sampling variables
sv2 + sv3 + sv4 + sv5 + 
sv6 + sv7 +  
(1|phylo) + (1|reference_id), #random effects
ziformula = ~ 0,
#ar1(pos + 0| group) # spatial autocorrelation structure; group is a dummy variable
phyloZ = supertreenew,
phylonm = "phylo",
family = "binomial",
data = data)

But I keep getting the error:

Error in Matrix::rankMatrix(TMBStruc$data.tmb[[whichX]]) : 
length(d <- dim(x)) == 2 is not TRUE

This error is also occurring with other reproducible example (data) that I found.

Before I run the model, I just loaded my data (data and supertree) and computed a Z matrix from supertree:

#Compute Z matrix
#supertreenew <- vcv.phylo(supertreenew) 
#or
supertreenew <- phylo.to.Z(supertreenew)
#enforced match between
supertreenew <- supertreenew[levels(factor(data$phylo)), ]

I have installed the development version via:

remotes::install_github("wzmli/phyloglmm/pkg")

But no success.

The dimension of my supertree are:

[[1]] ... [351]
[[2]] ... [645]

Any guess?

Solution 
  • control = glmmTMB::glmmTMBControl(rank_check = "skip")

    to your phylo_glmmTMB call should work around the problem.
