[R] Generating Data

2011-10-14 Thread Muhammed Rauf Ahmad
Dear All I need to generate multivariate NON-NORMAL data in R, which follows a given mean vector and covariance matrix, say multivariate exponential data. How can I do that? Best regards mra __ R-help@r-project.org mailing list

Is there a function in R that will generate data from a known mean and 95% CI? I do not know the distribution or sample size of the original data. Cheers, Tyler L Hicks PhD Student Washington State University - Vancouver E-mail: tyler_hi...@wsu.edu Website: www.thingswithwings.org Back

Hi: I don't know if this is what you meant but here's a way to cheat and do it. 1) back out the [sigma over sqrt root of n] from the 95 % CI and call it X. 2) then generate data using rnorm(n*, known mean, sigma*) where sigma*/sqrt(n*) = X is satisfied. 3) there will be many solutions to 2)

R can tell you how many possible answers there are with those givens though: ?Inf Really though, you can get at some information if you are willing to set one of those definitively. I.e. If you set sample size you can 'find' data which match specs but isn't going to be applicable to anything

Jim the 2x2 case is reasonably straightforward because the support is quite a small set. With the aylmer package you could do this: a - matrix(c(1,5,7,8),2,2) sample(seq_along(allprobs(a)),100,replace=TRUE,prob=allprobs(a)) [1] 3 2 4 1 3 4 4 4 4 3 3 4 4 2 3 4 5 4 3 3 4 4 2 1 4 3 3 3 4 2 3

This sounds rather like homework. If so, then talk to your instructor for help. Otherwise: First you go to R Site Search at http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/search.html or to google. Then you search for normal distribution. Then you search for plot. Then you search for cluster. If you have
