How can I estimate overall Theta of one candidate given value of difficulty,discrimination,guessing and responses  any formula of theta estimation on R studio

plz anyone help about how to calculate  overall theta using 3pl

Almost the same code as before. See last line.

if(!require(mirt)) install.packages("mirt"); library(mirt)
LSAT #data
parameters <- mirt( data=LSAT,
                             model=1,
                             itemtype='3PL',
                             pars="values"
                             )

parameters[parameters$name == "a1", ]$value <- c(0.6,0.7,0.8,0.9,1.0)  
parameters[parameters$name == "a1", ]$est <- FALSE    
parameters[parameters$name == "d", ]$value <- c(-0.6*-1,-0.7*1,-0.8*2,-0.9*-.5,-1.0*.26)  
parameters[parameters$name == "d", ]$est <- FALSE    
parameters[parameters$name == "g", ]$value <- c(0.2,0.23,.3,0.12,0.16)  
parameters[parameters$name == "g", ]$est <- FALSE    

mod <- mirt( data=LSAT,
                    model=1,
                    itemtype='3PL',
                    pars=parameters
)

coef(mod,simplify=TRUE,IRTpars = TRUE)
fscores(mod)
fscores(mod, response.pattern=c(1,1,0,1,0)) # for one pattern.

I AYESHA I WANT TO TAKE HELP IN THE PACKAGE IRT_PARAMETER_ESTIMATION PLURALSIGHT HERE IS THE LINK

https://github.com/pluralsight/irt_parameter_estimation/blob/master/irt_parameter_estimation/baker_mle.py

PROBLEM:- kindly help me that in bakers.mle.py file what is the formate used to enter the data in theta,r anf f and how i can run the full def function of 3pl mle

Here is the data which i want to pass to 3pl mle function kindly guide me that error is shown

ERROR

WHEN I PASS THE DATA IN THIS FORM THEN DOESNT SHOW ANY THING AFTER ITERATION 0 MSG

RESULT NOTHING

KINDLY GUIDE METHAT HOW CAN I ESTIMATE THE ABILITY OF SINGLE CANDIDATE BY PASSING THE DATASET ON 3PL FUNCTION DATASET

No clue what this is, so sorry I'm afraid this might be the wrong forum to ask code-related questions for that python package. I'm sure it can be done in mirt though, provided that you can describe what exactly you are trying to do.
