[R] Error in FastTau(formula, data = d) : unused argument(s) (data = d)

[varin sacha]

Dear R-helpers,

Another problem with FastTau function from the RobPer packages. Any solution to solve my problem would be highly appreciated.

install.packages( "boot",dependencies=TRUE )
install.packages( "RobPer",dependencies=TRUE  )

library(boot)
library(RobPer)

n<-200
b<-runif(n, 0, 5)
z <- rnorm(n, 2, 3)
a <- runif(n, 0, 5)

y_model<- 0.1*b - 0.5 * z - a + 10
y_obs <- y_model +c( rnorm(n*0.9, 0, 0.1), rnorm(n*0.1, 0, 0.5) )
df<-data.frame(b,z,a,y_obs)

 # function to obtain MSE
 MSE <- function(data, indices, formula){
    d <- data[indices, ] # allows boot to select sample
    fit <- FastTau(formula, data = d)
    ypred <- predict(fit)
   mean((d[["y_obs"]]-ypred)^2)
 }
 
# Make the results reproducible
 set.seed(1234)
 
 # bootstrapping with 600 replications
 results <- boot(data = df, statistic = MSE,
                  R = 600, formula = model.matrix(~b+z+a))
str(results)

boot.ci(results, type="bca" )
