[R] Need Help for creating a new variable

2009-02-19 Thread Chun-Hao Tu


Hi R users,

I did do the research and work on for hours, but I still don't know how to 
solve my silly problem. I try to creat a new variable in my dataset.

such as if diet==C  vesl==P then trt=CP;  if diet==C  vesl==A 
then trt=CA;.  The following is my code (It does not work correctly). 

Could anyone give me a hint? Appreciate!

 

 diet-sort(rep(x=c(C,T),4))
 vesl-rep(x=c(A,P),4)
 mydata-data.frame(diet,vesl)
 
 mydata$trt-ifelse(mydata$diet==C  mydata$vesl==A, CA,
+ifelse(mydata$diet==C  mydata$vesl==P, CP,
+  ifelse(mydata$diet==T  mydata$vesl==A, TA,
+ ifelse(mydata$diet==T  mydata$vesl==P, TP
 mydata
  diet vesl trt
1CA  CA
2CP  CA
3CA  CA
4CP  CA
5TA  CA
6TP  CA

Thank you very much

Re: [R] Difference between GEE and Robust Cluster Standard Errors

Hello,

I know that two possible approaches to dealing with clustered data would be
GEE or a robust cluster covariance matrix from a standard regression. What
are the differences between these two methods, or are they doing the same
thing? Thanks.


There are two components to 'GEE'. The first is the robust cluster (or 
'sandwich') covariance, the second is the ability to choose a weight matrix to 
get higher efficiency ('working correlation').

Using the 'independence working correlation' asks for the same weighting as in 
ordinary regression, so the estimates are the same as in standard regression, 
and then the standard errors are the same as the 'robust cluster' ones (up to 
factors of n/(n-1) and similar implementation details). The standard errors are 
also the same as the Horvitz-Thompson estimator gives for cluster sampling from 
an infinite population, and they are also the same as an approximation to the 
cluster jackknife standard errors where a cluster is downweighted slightly 
rather than removed.

Re: [R] Need Help for creating a new variable

2009-02-19 Thread Mark Difford

Hi Chun,

 I did do the research and work on for hours ... I try to creat a new
 variable in my dataset.

Yes, looks like you did. Look at ?interaction, which gives you more
flexibility than ?:.

## Example
diet-sort(rep(x=c(C,T),4)) 
vesl-rep(x=c(A,P),4) 
mydata-data.frame(diet,vesl)

mydata$trt - interaction(mydata$diet, mydata$vesl)
mydata

mydata$trt - mydata$diet:mydata$vesl
mydata

Regards, Mark.

Re: [R] R: R scripts and parameters

2009-02-19 Thread Prof Brian Ripley
You seem not to have put the R bin directory in your path.  That is 
where Rterm, Rscript ... are installed (and the installer does not 
change the PATH for you).

Sorry. This is still unclear to me.
I generated a file called Test.R that contains the following lines:

commandArgs(TRUE)
cat(\n A = ,A,\n)
cat(\n B = ,B,\n)

First of all I have to clarify which command line we are talking about.
If I run the command Rscript from a Windows terminal, the system does not 
recognize such a command:
C:\Documents and Settings\Monville\Utilities-DirRscript Test.R aa bb cc
Rscript non ? riconosciuto come comando interno o esterno,
un programma eseguibile o un file batch.
The above system response tells me that Rscript is not recognized either as an 
internal or external command, an executable or a batch file.

In fact Rscript is an R command. Nevertheless, I started an R session and tried 
such a command from R console command line
and got the following:

getwd()

[1] C:/Documents and Settings/Monville/Utilities-Dir

Rscript Test.R aa bb cc

Error: unexpected symbol in Rscript Test.R

I feel I do not have a good grasp of how to run R scripts the same way as I 
usually run C programs.
Any help is welcome.
Thank  you.

A couple of weeks ago I asked how it is possible to run an R script (not a

Someone suggested the function commandArgs().
I read the on-line help and found no clarifying example. Therefore I do not

I noticed this function returns the pathname of the R executable which is not 
what I need.

I meant to ask if it is possible to open an R session and launch a script 
passing parameters that the script can retrieve and use itself.
Just like in C I can run a program and call it with  some arguments


Example_Prog A B C


The program Example_Prog can acess its own arguments through the data structures argc 
an argv.

How can I launch an R script simulating the above mechanism ?
Shall I use source (script-name) ?
Where are the arguments to be passed, as part of the source call ?
Is the function commandArgs to be places as one of the first code lines of 
the script in order to access its own arguments ?
Is there any commandArgs usage example ?



Gabor gave you a solution from within R.  If you want to run a script
from the command line, then use commandArgs(TRUE).  For example, put
this into the file test.R:

commandArgs(TRUE)

(The TRUE says you only want to see the trailing arguments, not
everything else on the command line.)

Then from the command line, do

Rscript test.R A B C

and you'll see the output

[R] Meaning of .local and the special token ..1 returned from match.call

2009-02-19 Thread Niels Richard Hansen

I am writing a version of the subset function for
a new class. I don't understand the behavior of match.call
in this particular case, and I didn't seem to be able to
find much help in the language definition or the email archive.
Here follows a minimal example:

setClass(myClass,
 representation(id = factor)
 )

setMethod(subset,myClass,
  function(x,subset,...) match.call()
  )

tmp - new(myClass,id=factor(1:10))
subset(x=tmp,subset=id 5)

which gives me

.local(x = x, subset = ..1)

I want to call a further subset function, subset.data.frame, say,
using the unevaluated expression id  5, but in this setup I
don't understand how I should proceed. I can't find any explanation of 
.local and what the ..1 means, except that ..1 is a special token. A 
small modification of the method as


setMethod(subset,myClass,
  function(x,...) match.call()
  )

where I exclude explicitly mentioning the subset argument
gives, however, what I expected:

subset(x = tmp, subset = id  5)

This might be OK, and I am able to get everything to work without
having an explicit subset argument in the class method -- by passing
the ... -- but I think it would be nice to have the subset argument like 
in the S3 version of subset.data.frame.


It seems that the issue is related to the fact that the generic
subset method has the arguments (x,...). Is there a way to get around 
this so that my method can have explicit additional arguments like the

subset-argument?

Thanks for any help, Niels

[R] Multiple merge, better solution?

2009-02-19 Thread Lauri Nikkinen
Hello,

My problem is that I would like to merge multiple files with a common
column but merge accepts only two
data.frames to merge. In the real situation, I have 26 different
data.frames with a common column. I can of course use merge many times
(see below) but what would be more sophisticated solution? For loop?
Any ideas?

DF1 - data.frame(var1 = letters[1:5], a = rnorm(5))
DF2 - data.frame(var1 = letters[3:7], b = rnorm(5))
DF3 - data.frame(var1 = letters[6:10], c = rnorm(5))
DF4 - data.frame(var1 = letters[8:12], d = rnorm(5))

g - merge(DF1, DF2, by.x=var1, by.y=var1, all=T)
g - merge(g, DF3, by.x=var1, by.y=var1, all=T)
merge(g, DF4, by.x=var1, by.y=var1, all=T)

[R] Matrix package: band matrix

2009-02-19 Thread Thomas Lumley


I want to construct a symmetric band matrix in the Matrix package from a matrix 
where the first column contains data for the main diagonal, the second column 
has data for the first subdiagonal/superdiagonal and so on.

Since the Matrix will be 10^5 x 10^5 or so, with perhaps 10-20 non-zero 
elements above the diagonal per row, I can't do it by constructing a full 
matrix and then using the band() function to subset it to a band matrix.

Any suggestions?

Re: [R] Multiple merge, better solution?

2009-02-19 Thread markleeds
Hi: Below is a TOTAL HACK and I don't recommend it but it does seem to 
do what you want. I think that I remember Gabor saying that you can 
merge multiple data frames using zoo but I don't know the specifics. I'm 
sure he'll respond with the correct way. Below uses a global variable 
to access the
dataframe inside the loop and keeps adding on to it. Don't use it unless 
you're really desperate for a solution.


DF - DF1

for ( .df in list(DF2,DF3,DF4) ) {
  DF-merge(DF,.df,by.x=var1, by.y=var1, all=T)
}

print(DF)

[R] type III effect from glm()

2009-02-19 Thread Simon Pickett
Hi all,

This could be naivety/stupidity on my part rather than a problem with model 
output, but here goes

I have fitted a fairly simple model 

m1-glm(count~siteall+yrs+yrs:district,family=quasipoisson,weights=weight,data=m[x[[i]],])

I want to know if yrs (a continuous variable) has a significant unique effect 
in the model, so I fit a simplified model with the main effect ommitted...

m2-glm(count~siteall+yrs:district,family=quasipoisson,weights=weight,data=m[x[[i]],])

then compare models using anova()
anova(m1,m1b,test=F)

Analysis of Deviance Table

Model 1: count ~ siteall + yrs + yrs:district
Model 2: count ~ siteall + yrs:district
  Resid. Df Resid. Dev   Df Deviance F Pr(F)
1  1936  75913   
2  1936  7591300 
 

The d.f.'s are exactly the same, is this right? Can I only test the 
significance of a main effect when it is not in an interaction? 

Thanks in advance,

Simon.

Re: [R] Multiple merge, better solution?

2009-02-19 Thread baptiste auguie

Hi,


I think Reduce could help you.

DF1 - data.frame(var1 = letters[1:5], a = rnorm(5))
DF2 - data.frame(var1 = letters[3:7], b = rnorm(5))
DF3 - data.frame(var1 = letters[6:10], c = rnorm(5))
DF4 - data.frame(var1 = letters[8:12], d = rnorm(5))

g - merge(DF1, DF2, by.x=var1, by.y=var1, all=T)
g - merge(g, DF3, by.x=var1, by.y=var1, all=T)
g - merge(g, DF4, by.x=var1, by.y=var1, all=T)

test - Reduce(function(x, y) merge(x, y, all=T,by.x=var1,  
by.y=var1),

list(DF1, DF2, DF3, DF4), accumulate=F)

all.equal(test, g) # TRUE


As a warning, it's the first time I've ever used it myself...


Hope this helps,

I did originally think too, i.e. that not including the main effect was the 
problem. However, the same thing happens when I include main effects

 Hi Simon: John Fox can say a lot more about below but I've been reading 
his book over and over recently and one thing he constantly stresses is 
marginality which he defines as always including the lower order term if 
you include it in a higher order term. So, I think below is problematic 
because you are including an interaction that includes the main effect but 
not including the main effect. This definitely causes problems when trying 
to interpret
the anova table or the Anova table. That's as much as I can say. I highly 
recommed his text for this sort of thing and hopefully he will respond.


Oh, my point is that if you want to check the effect of yrs, then I think 
you have to take it out of model 2 totally in order to interpret the anova 
( or the Anova ) table.

Dear R users,
thanks to Samuel for making the package knnFinder available to the public. I was
wondering if there is an easy way to only build and store the kdd tree

It seems that nn() does both simultaneously.

[R] Use of ifelse for indicating specific rownumber

2009-02-19 Thread joe1985

Hello

I have a dataset named b2 with 1521 rows, in that dataset i have 64 rows
containing specific information.

the rownumbers with specific info are:

+ i
 [1]   22   53  104  127  151  196  235  238  249  250  263  335  344  353 
362  370  389  422  458  459  473  492  502  530  561  624  647  651  666 
671
[31]  715  784  791  807  813  823  830  841  862  865 1036 1051 1062 1068

1452
[61] 1465 1489 1512 1518

So what i want is that everytime the rownumber equals a number in i (which
obviously indicate a rownumber i b2), i want it indicated in a vector called
b2$totalvac. Fx. in rownumber 22 in b2 the 
b2$totalvac vector should have the value 1.

So thougth of  b2$totalvac - ifelse(,1,0), but i don't what to put as the
if-sentence.

Hope you can help me

Re: [R] Multiple merge, better solution?

2009-02-19 Thread baptiste auguie

Another option using Recall,


merge.rec - function(.list, ...){
if(length(.list)==1) return(.list[[1]])
Recall(c(list(merge(.list[[1]], .list[[2]], ...)), .list[-(1:2)]), ...)
}

my.list - list(DF1, DF2, DF3, DF4)
test2 - merge.rec(my.list, by.x=var1, by.y=var1, all=T)

all.equal(test2, g)

Note that your second example does not work because in the last step  
there are no common names between g and DF4 (I think). Using  
suffixes=c(, ) seems to do the trick but I'm not sure it's giving  
the result you want/expect.


Hope this helps,

Re: [R] type III effect from glm()

 Hi Simon: In below , test1 spelled out is count ~ siteall + yrs + 
district + yrs:district so this is fine.


but in test2 , you have years interacting with district but not the main 
effect for years. this is against the rules of marginality so I still 
think there's a problem. I would wait for John or the other wizaRds to

 Hi Simon: John Fox can say a lot more about below but I've been 
reading his book over and over recently and one thing he constantly 
stresses is marginality which he defines as always including the 
lower order term if you include it in a higher order term. So, I 
think below is problematic because you are including an interaction 
that includes the main effect but not including the main effect. This 
definitely causes problems when trying to interpret
the anova table or the Anova table. That's as much as I can say. I 
highly recommed his text for this sort of thing and hopefully he will 
respond.


Oh, my point is that if you want to check the effect of yrs, then I 
think you have to take it out of model 2 totally in order to 
interpret the anova ( or the Anova ) table.

 Thanks for your help. I have looked at the beginners

 various aspects of the plot none of them seem to have the 
 desired effect. I have managed to ensure that the plot fills 
 the space vertically with no margins, no axes etc (using 
 mai=c(0,0,0,0)). However, horizontally there remains a margin

 Hi James,

 What you really need to do is to check out the many freely 
   
 available 
 
 pdfs for R beginners. Here is a good place to start

 http://cran.r-project.org/other-docs.html

 If I am right interpreting what you want, I think you need 
   
 to create a 
 
 blank plot with no axes, axis labels etc. Try

 plot(x,y,xlab=,ylab=,xaxt=NULL,yaxt=NULL,type=n)
 #blank plot
 points(x,y)

 type ?par into R and see how you can set parameters like 
   
 this up as 
 
 the default.

 Hope this helps?

 Simon.

 Subject: [R] Unadulterated plot


   
 To all,

 Apologies if this question has already been asked but I can't find 
 anything. I can't seem to think of more specific search 
 
 terms. I want 
 
 to display/create a file of a pure plot with a specific height and 
 width. I want to utilise every single pixel inside the 
 
 axes. I do not 
 
 want to display any margins, legends, axes, titles or 
 
 spaces around 
 
 the edges. Is this possible? Additionally, the plot I am 
 
 working with 
 
 is a filled.contour plot and I can not remove the legend? 
 
 How can I 
 
 do this?

 Kind Regards,
 James

Re: [R] type III effect from glm()

2009-02-19 Thread Mark Difford

Hi Simon,

 I want to know if yrs (a continuous variable) has a significant unique
 effect in the model, 
 so I fit a simplified model with the main effect ommitted...

[A different approach...] This is not really a sensible question until you
have established that there is no significant interaction between yrs and
district. If this interaction is significant then, ipso facto, the effect
of yrs is not unique but depends on district. So establish that first.

There is a good section on marginality in MASS (Venables  Ripley) and, as
Mark has mentioned, in Prof Fox's texts. From what I can remember, some of
these tests are reparametrized behind the scenes to enforce the marginality
constraint.

Regards, Mark.

Re: [R] table with 3 variables

Maybe reshape will help you, but I'm in doubt that your posted desired 
result fits your given data - e.g shouldn't  subject 101 Q3 give Y?


xx-data.frame(Subject=rep(100:101, each=4), 
Quarter=rep(paste(Q,1:4,sep=),2), Boolean = rep(c(Y,N),4))

reshape(xx,timevar=Quarter,idvar=Subject,direction=wide,v.names=Boolean)

And I would like to group the Subject by Quarter using as a result in the

give:

I started using the *table(Subject, Quarter)* but can't find a way to

Re: [R] type III effect from glm()

Hi Simon,

 [On my response] ...not really a sensible question until...

On reading through this...what I mean is that yours seems not to be a
sensible approach, the question itself may be reasonable. What you want to
be doing is testing whether the interaction term (yrs:district) gets
dropped. Do it by comparing nested models (basically as you have done), or
use dropterm() or stepAIC() [both are in MASS].

 There is a good section on marginality in MASS (Venables  Ripley) and, as
 Mark has mentioned, in Prof Fox's texts. From what I can remember, some of
 these tests are reparametrized behind the scenes to enforce the
 marginality constraint.
 
 Regards, Mark.

[R] Bug in predict function for naiveBayes?

2009-02-19 Thread joris meys
Dear all,

I tried a simple naive Bayes classification on an artificial dataset, but I
have troubles getting the predict function to work with the type=class
specification. With type= raw, it works perfectly, but with type=class I
get following error :

Error in as.vector(x, mode) : invalid 'mode' argument

Data : mixture.train is a training set with 100 points originating from 2
multivariate gaussian distributions (class 0 and class 1), with X1 and X2 as
coordinates in a 2-dimensional space. Mixture.test is a grid going from -15
to +15 in both dimensions. Stupid data, but it's just to test.

Code :
Sigma - matrix(c(10,3,3,2),2,2)
mixture.train - cbind(mvrnorm(n=50, c(0, 2), Sigma),rep(0,50))
mixture.train - as.data.frame(rbind(mixture.train,cbind(mvrnorm(n=50, c(2,
0), Sigma),rep(1,50
names(mixture.train) -c(X1,X2,Class)
X1 - rep(seq(-15,15,by=1),31)
X2 - rep(seq(-15,15,by=1),each = 31)
mixture.test - data.frame(X1,X2)

Bayes.res - naiveBayes(Class ~ X1 + X2, data=mixture.train)
pred.bayes -predict(Bayes.res, cbind(mixture.test$X1,
mixture.test$X2),type=class)

Tried it also with pred.bayes -predict(Bayes.res,
mixture.test,type=class), but that gives the same effect. Is this a bug or
am I missing something?

Kind regards

 You might also find

On the other hand, it's a fundamentally limited approach.  With a

Hi Kenn,

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll have to see if I can figure out how to
convert the relatively simple call to lm with an equation and the data file
to the functions you mention (or if that's even feasible).

Not an expert in statistics myself, I am mostly concentrating on the
programming aspects of R. Problem is that I suspect my colleagues who
are providing some guidance with the stats end are not quite experts
themselves, and certainly new to R.

Cheers,

Esmail

Also lsfit() is a bit quicker than lm or lm.fit.

Re: [R] indicator or deviation contrasts in log-linear modelling

2009-02-19 Thread Michael Friendly

Maja,

The need to interpret parameters in log-linear models (and therefore, 
the need to understand how the model is parameterized) often vanishes

if you visualize the fitted model or the residuals in a mosaic display.

e.g., ucb1 asserts Admit is jointly independent of Gender and Dept ---
fits very badly, but the residuals show the *nature* of the association
not accounted for.
ucb2 - Admit and Gender conditionally independent, given Dept --- fits 
badly overall, but only in one department.


 library(vcd)
 ucb1 - loglm(~Admit + Gender*Dept, data=UCBAdmissions)
 ucb1
Call:
loglm(formula = ~Admit + Gender * Dept, data = UCBAdmissions)

Statistics:
 X^2 df P( X^2)
Likelihood Ratio 877 110
Pearson  798 110
 plot(ucb1)
 ucb2 - loglm(~Admit*Dept + Gender*Dept, data=UCBAdmissions)
 ucb2
Call:
loglm(formula = ~Admit * Dept + Gender * Dept, data = UCBAdmissions)

Statistics:
 X^2 df P( X^2)
Likelihood Ratio  22  6   0.0014
Pearson   20  6   0.0028
 plot(ucb2)


maiya wrote:

I am fairly new to log-linear modelling, so as opposed to trying to fit
modells, I am still trying to figure out how it actually works - hence I am
looking at the interpretation of parameters. Now it seems most people skip
this part and go directly to measuring model fit, so I am finding very few
references to actual parameters, and am of course clear on the fact that
their choice is irelevant for the actual model fit. 


But here is my question: loglin uses deviation contrasts, so the
coefficients in each term add up to zero.
Another option are indicator contrasts, where a reference category is chosen
in each term and set to zero, while the others are relative to it. My
question is if there is a log-linear command equivalent to loglin that uses
this secong dummy coding style of constraints (I know e.g. spss genlog
does this). 


I hope this is not to basic a question!

And if anyone is up for answeing the wider question of why log-linear
parameters are not something to be looked at - which might just be my
impression of the literature - feel free to comment!

Thanks for your help!

 5101  Q1   Y
 6101  Q2   N
 7101  Q3   Y
 8101  Q4   N
 ...
 

 And I would like to group the Subject by Quarter using as a result in the
 table the value of the third variable (Boolean). The final result would
 give:

  Subjet Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4
 1100  Y  Y  Y  Y
 2101  N  N  N  N
 ...
 

 I started using the *table(Subject, Quarter)* but can't find a way to
 correspond the Boolean information in the table

Re: [R] table with 3 variables

2009-02-19 Thread David Hajage
Sorry, you don't need 'melt' :

cast(truc, Subject ~ Quarter)


2009/2/19 David Hajage dhajag...@gmail.com

 And I would like to group the Subject by Quarter using as a result in the
 table the value of the third variable (Boolean). The final result would
 give:

  Subjet Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4
 1100  Y  Y  Y  Y
 2101  N  N  N  N

 Are you sure that this is the final result you want ?

 You could use the reshape package (and not reshape function) :
 library(reshape)
 truc - data.frame(Subject=rep(100:101, each=4),
 Quarter=rep(paste(Q,1:4,sep=),2), Boolean = rep(c(Y,N),4))
 mtruc - melt(truc, id = c(Subject, Quarter))
 cast(mtruc, Subject ~ Quarter)

 Final result :
   Subject Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4
 1 100  Y  N  Y  N
 2 101  Y  N  Y  N

 Hello R-help,

 I am trying to import a large dataset from SPSS into R. The SPSS file
 is in .SAV format and is about 1GB in size. I use read.spss to import
 the file and get an error saying that I have run out of memory. I am
 on a MAC OS X 10.5 system with 4GB of RAM. Monitoring the R process
 tells me that R runs out of memory when reaching about 3GB of RAM so I
 suppose the remaining 1GB is used up by the OS.

 Why would a 1GB SPSS file take up more than 3GB of memory in R?

 Because SPSS stores data in a compressed way?

 Or because R uses quite a lot more memory to read a data set than to store
 it. Either way, even if the data set eventually took up only 1Gb in R you
 still would probably not be able to work usefully with it on a 32-bit
 machine.

 You need to either use a 64-bit system or avoid loading the whole data set.
  Unfortunately read.spss can't read the data selectively [something I'd like
 to fix, sometime], but if you had a .csv file you could read a subset of
 columns or rows using read.table.

 A better bet is likely to be putting the data set into a database (SQLite is
 easiest) and reading subsets of the data that way.  That's how I handle data
 sets of a few Gb (on a laptop with 1Gb memory).

You could try using package memisc and only bring in the variables you

See ?Rprof for profiling your R code.

If lm is the culprit, rewriting your lm calls using lm.fit might help.

Yes, based on my informal benchmarking, lm is the main bottleneck, the

of the code consists mostly of vector manipulations and control structures.

I am not familiar with lm.fit, I'll definitely look it up. I hope it's
similar
enough to make it easy to substitute one for the other.

Thanks for the suggestion, much appreciated. (My runs now take sometimes
several hours, it would be great to cut that time down by any amount :-)



Yes, the speedup can be significant.  e.g. here we cut the time down to
40% of the lm time by using lm.fit and we can get down to nearly 10% if
we go even lower level:


Wow those numbers look impressive, that would be a nice speedup to have.

I took a look at the manual and found the following at the top of
the description for lm.fit:

  These are the basic computing engines called by lm used to fit linear
   models. These should usually not be used directly unless by experienced
   users. 

I am certainly not an experienced user - so I wonder how different it
would be to use lm.fit instead of lm.

Right now I cobble together an equation and then call lm with it and the
datafile.

I.e.,

LM.1 = lm(as.formula(eqn), data=datafile)
s=summary(LM.1)

I then extract some information from the summary stats.

I'm not really quite sure what to make of the parameter list in lm.fit

I will look on-line and see if I can find an example showing the use of
this - thanks for pointing me in that direction.

Re: [R] Unadulterated plot

as I previously told you in my broken  English, probably the function
you're looking for is not filled.contour but image and contour
The following code makes exactly what you ask for

data(akima)
akima
akima.smooth -
 with(akima, interp(x, y, z, xo=seq(0,25, length=500),
yo=seq(0,20, length=500)))
op - par(ann=FALSE, mai=c(0,0,0,0))
image  (akima.smooth, main = interp(akima data, *) on finer grid)
contour(akima.smooth, add = TRUE,drawlabels=F)

cheers

Patrizio

2009/2/19 James Nicolson jlnicol...@gmail.com:
 good point! Provide your own set of x,y,z co-ords, mine are pretty big
 but you can use any.

 library(akima)

 fr3d = data.frame(x,y,z)
 xtrp - interp(fr3d$x,fr3d$y,fr3d$z,linear=FALSE,extrap=TRUE,duplicate=
 strip)

 op - par(ann=FALSE, mai=c(0,0,0,0))
 filled.contour(xtrp$x, xtrp$y, xtrp$z, asp = 0.88402366864, col =
 rev(rainbow(28,start=0, end=8/12)), n = 40)

 Hi,

 Thanks for your help. I have looked at the beginners
 documentation and while there are options to configure
 various aspects of the plot none of them seem to have the
 desired effect. I have managed to ensure that the plot fills
 the space vertically with no margins, no axes etc (using
 mai=c(0,0,0,0)). However, horizontally there remains a margin
 to the right that pads the space between the filled.contour
 and its legend.
 I've tried options to par and filled.contour but I can't seem
 to remove the legend.

 If I am right interpreting what you want, I think you need

 to create a

 blank plot with no axes, axis labels etc. Try

 plot(x,y,xlab=,ylab=,xaxt=NULL,yaxt=NULL,type=n)
 #blank plot

 type ?par into R and see how you can set parameters like

[R] DLM and matrices with 0 eigenvalues

2009-02-19 Thread Rebecca Sela
I am using DLM to fit a state space model.  The covariance matrix of states (W) 
is given by:
a 0 a 0
0 0 0 0
a 0 a 0
0 0 0 0
where a is a parameter to be estimated.  Even though the matrix is positive 
semidefinite, sometimes DLM gives me an error that W is not a valid variance 
matrix.  As far as I can tell, the reason is that one of R's computed 
eigenvalues is very slightly negative (something like -5E-17).  Is there a way 
to work around this?

Thanks!

Re: [R] Multiple merge, better solution?

2009-02-19 Thread Gabor Grothendieck
The zoo package has a multi-way merge for zoo objects.   Its
just   do.call(merge, z)   where z is a list of zoo objects.
In detail:

set.seed(1)
DF1 - data.frame(var1 = letters[1:5], a = rnorm(5), b = rnorm(5), c = rnorm(5))
DF2 - data.frame(var1 = letters[3:7], a = rnorm(5), b = rnorm(5), c = rnorm(5))
DF3 - data.frame(var1 = letters[6:10], a = rnorm(5), b = rnorm(5), c
= rnorm(5))
DF4 - data.frame(var1 = letters[8:12], a = rnorm(5), b = rnorm(5), c
= rnorm(5))

# create list of data frames
DFs - list(A = DF1, B = DF2, C = DF3, D = DF4)

library(zoo)

# convert to list of zoo objects
z - lapply(DFs, function(x) zoo(as.matrix(x[ ,-1, drop = FALSE]),
as.character(x[,1])))

# perform merge
zz - do.call(merge, z)

# to convert back to data frame
DF - as.data.frame(var1 = time(zz), coredata(zz))

[R] code patterns in vector

2009-02-19 Thread Stefan Uhmann

Dear List,

I have this column/vector:

vec - c(function, missing, string)

and want to compute a second column/vector:
- value if the pattern unc is found: 1
- value if the pattern iss is found: 2
- value if none of the patterns is found: 0

This should be the result:
 vec2
[1] 1 2 0

Any help? Tried it with grep, but the output is not as long as vec, so 
I'm lost a bit here.

vec2[grep(unc, vec)] - 1

Note that an entry containing both unc and iss will get a 1

Re: [R] Age as time-scale in a cox model

2009-02-19 Thread Terry Therneau

You asked about survival curves with age scale versus follow-up scale.

 fit1 - coxph(Surv(time/365.25, status) ~ t5 + id + age, data=stanford2)
 surv1- survfit(fit1)
 surv1
  n  events  median 0.95LCL 0.95UCL 
157.000 102.000   1.999   0.898   3.608 

 summary(surv1, times=3)
 time n.risk n.event survival std.err lower 95% CI upper 95% CI
3 46  850.451  0.04250.3750.543

  I've taken the liberty of rewriting your query using the standard survival 
library calls instead of Design, since I don't attempt to keep up with the 
latter.  The above shows a median survival of 1.999 years after enrollment, and 
a 3 year survival of 45%.  I was surprised when you put id in the model, but 
it turns out to have p=.03!  It seems that patients entered later in the study 
have better survival.
  
  Now for age scale:

 fit2 - coxph(Surv(age, age+ time/365.25, status) ~ t5 + id, stanford2)
 surv2- survfit(fit2)
 surv2
  n  events  median 0.95LCL 0.95UCL 
1.0   102.012.212.228.1 

This shows a median age at death of 12.2 years.  Puzzling, isn't it.

First, note that your code
  cph(Surv(age,age+time, status) ~ t5+id, data=stanford2...

doesn't make sense due to different time scales: age in years and time in days.

As to your final question:
These are obviously out-of sync, so there must be some way I can adjust them 
to 
mean the same thing. The first means the probability of surviving a 1000 days 
since they started being followed up while the second means the probability of 
surviving up to starting age+1000 days. How do I get the equivalent risks from 
the two models?

  The first fit is on a time since entry scale, and so the survival curve is 
with respect to time since entry.  The second is on an age scale, and so the 
curve will be in terms of absolute age, not starting age + x.  There is no 
simple way to realign them.
   As to the curve above with a median age of 12.2 years.  We know that a usual 
Kaplan-Meier curve can become unstable at the right hand end due to very small 
n 
(=5), which leads to big steps.  With start,stop data this can happen at the 
left end too.  In the stanford2 data set there is one subject who enters the 
study at age 12 and dies at age 12.2.  At the time of death there is only 1 
person at risk, so the survival curve goes to zero (100% death rate).  This 
curve is mathematically correct, but not at all useful.

Besides the above (good!) solution, you might want to understand why
your original solution didn't work:

  mydata$trt-ifelse(mydata$diet==C  mydata$vesl==A, CA,
 +ifelse(mydata$diet==C  mydata$vesl==P, CP,

The problem here is that you are using  rather than .  From the man page:

 '' and '' indicate logical AND and '|' and '||' indicate
 logical OR.  The shorter form performs elementwise comparisons in
 much the same way as arithmetic operators.  The longer form
 evaluates left to right examining only the first element of each
 vector.

I trust this makes things clearer.

Re: [R] type III effect from glm()

2009-02-19 Thread John Fox
Dear Mark and Simon,

I assume from the variable names that siteall and district are factors and
that yrs is numeric. If that's the case, then the second model formula, ~
siteall + district + yrs:district, nests yrs within district, that is, will
fit a separate slope for years within each level of district -- what you'd
get by ~ siteall + district/years or ~ siteall + district + yrs %in%
district. This model is equivalent to ~ siteall + yrs*district, although
it's parametrized differently. To see what's happening, check
model.matrix(test1) and model.matrix(test2).

More generally, R avoids violating marginality. If you want type-III
tests, you could use the Anova() function in the car package, but if I
properly interpreted the meaning of the predictors, the type-III test for
the main effect of yrs is simply the test that the slope for yrs is 0 in
the first (reference) category of district, assuming that you're using the
default dummy-coded (contr.treatment) contrasts -- not generally a
particularly interesting hypothesis.

Regards,
 John

   Hi Simon: John Fox can say a lot more about below but I've been
  reading his book over and over recently and one thing he constantly
  stresses is marginality which he defines as always including the
  lower order term if you include it in a higher order term. So, I
  think below is problematic because you are including an interaction
  that includes the main effect but not including the main effect. This
  definitely causes problems when trying to interpret
  the anova table or the Anova table. That's as much as I can say. I
  highly recommed his text for this sort of thing and hopefully he will
  respond.
 
  Oh, my point is that if you want to check the effect of yrs, then I
  think you have to take it out of model 2 totally in order to
  interpret the anova ( or the Anova ) table.

[R] read.table : how to condition on error while opening file?

2009-02-19 Thread Stephane Bourgeois
Hi,

 

I'm using read.table in a loop, to read in multiple files. The problem
is that when a file is missing there is an error message and the loop is
broken; what I'd like to do is to test for the error and simply do
next instead of breaking the loop. Anybody knows how to do that?

 

Example: 

 

filelist - c(file1.txt, file2.txt, file3.txt)

 

for (i in 1:3) {

  if (read.table(filelist[i]) == ERROR LOADING FILE) {
# this is where I do not know how to write the condition

print(paste(error opening file , filelist[i], sep=))

next

  } else {

tmp - read.table(filelist[i])

  }

}

 

 

Cheers,

 

Stephane

Re: [R] Unadulterated plot

2009-02-19 Thread James Nicolson
To All,

I'm using R 2.8.1. I have attached two images, one shows what I get and
the other shows what I want. All I want is the plotting region. Surely
there must be a way of plotting individual regions/components in R?

Patrizio, I prefer filled.contour() for my data. I still have the same
problem (a legend to the right) if I use image() then contour()!

Regards,
James

ps. No need for apologies Simon :D I'm grateful for any assistance
fruitless or not.


Patrizio Frederic wrote:
 James,
 as I previously told you in my broken  English, probably the function
 you're looking for is not filled.contour but image and contour
 The following code makes exactly what you ask for

 data(akima)
 akima
 akima.smooth -
  with(akima, interp(x, y, z, xo=seq(0,25, length=500),
 yo=seq(0,20, length=500)))
 op - par(ann=FALSE, mai=c(0,0,0,0))
 image  (akima.smooth, main = interp(akima data, *) on finer grid)
 contour(akima.smooth, add = TRUE,drawlabels=F)

 cheers

 Patrizio

 2009/2/19 James Nicolson jlnicol...@gmail.com:
   
 good point! Provide your own set of x,y,z co-ords, mine are pretty big
 but you can use any.

 library(akima)

 fr3d = data.frame(x,y,z)
 xtrp - interp(fr3d$x,fr3d$y,fr3d$z,linear=FALSE,extrap=TRUE,duplicate=
 strip)

 op - par(ann=FALSE, mai=c(0,0,0,0))
 filled.contour(xtrp$x, xtrp$y, xtrp$z, asp = 0.88402366864, col =
 rev(rainbow(28,start=0, end=8/12)), n = 40)
 par(op)

 I tried all these settings too (none of them made a difference)...
 usr=c(0,845,0,747), mfcol=c(1,1), mfrow=c(1,1),
 oma=c(0,0,0,0),omi=c(0,0,0,0), plt=c(1,1,1,1)

 Hi,

 Thanks for your help. I have looked at the beginners
 documentation and while there are options to configure
 various aspects of the plot none of them seem to have the
 desired effect. I have managed to ensure that the plot fills
 the space vertically with no margins, no axes etc (using
 mai=c(0,0,0,0)). However, horizontally there remains a margin
 to the right that pads the space between the filled.contour
 and its legend.
 I've tried options to par and filled.contour but I can't seem
 to remove the legend.

 Kind Regards,

 If I am right interpreting what you want, I think you need

   
 to create a

 
 blank plot with no axes, axis labels etc. Try

 plot(x,y,xlab=,ylab=,xaxt=NULL,yaxt=NULL,type=n)
 #blank plot

 type ?par into R and see how you can set parameters like

   
 this up as

 
 the default.

 Hope this helps?

Re: [R] Questions about biglm

2009-02-19 Thread Greg Snow
The idea of the biglm function is to only have part of the data in memory at a 
time.  You read in part of the data and run biglm on that section of the data, 
then delete it from memory, load in the next part of the data and use update to 
include the new data in the analysis, delete that, read in the next group, run 
update, and repeat until you have processed all the data.  The result will then 
be the same as if you ran lm on the entire dataset (possible slight differences 
due to rounding).  The bigglm function or code from other packages (SQLiteDF 
for one) can automate this a bit more.

The code for VIF below uses the model.matrix command, this returns the x matrix 
for the analysis when used with an lm object. Since biglm is based on the idea 
of not having all the data in memory at once, I would be very surprised if 
model.matrix worked with biglm objects, so that code is unlikely to work as is.

One approach is to do VIF and other diagnostics on a subset of the data (random 
sample, stratified random sample) that fits easily into memory, then after 
making decisions about the model based on the diagnostics, run the final model 
with biglm to get the precise results using the full data set.  You can do the 
diagnostics on a couple different random subsets to confirm the decisions made.

Hope this helps,

 Subject: [R] Questions about biglm
 
 Hello folks,
 
 I am very excited to have discovered R and have been exploring its
 capabilities. R's regression models are of great interest to me as my
 company is in the business of running thousands of linear regressions
 on large datasets.
 
 I am using biglm to run linear regressions on datasets that are as
 large as several GB's. I have been pleasantly surprised that biglm
 runs the regressions extremely fast (one regression may take minutes
 in SPSS vs seconds in R).
 
 I have been trying to wrap my head around biglm and have a couple of
 questions.
 
 1. How can I get VIF's (Variance Inflation Factors) using biglm? I was
 able to get VIF's from the regular lm function using this piece of
 code I found through Google, but have not been able to adapt it to
 work with biglm. Hasn't anyone been successful in this?
 
 vif.lm - function(object, ...) {
   V - summary(object)$cov.unscaled
   Vi - crossprod(model.matrix(object))
 nam - names(coef(object))
   if(k - match((Intercept), nam, nomatch = F)) {
 v1 - diag(V)[-k]
 v2 - (diag(Vi)[-k] - Vi[k, -k]^2/Vi[k,k])
 nam - nam[-k]
 } else {
 v1 - diag(V)
 v2 - diag(Vi)
 warning(No intercept term detected. Results may
 surprise.)
 }
 structure(v1*v2, names = nam)
 }
 
 2. How reliable / stable is biglm's update() function? I was
 experimenting with running regressions on individual chunks of my
 large dataset, but the coefficients I got were different compared to
 those obtained form running biglm on the whole dataset. Am I mistaken
 when I say that update() is intended to run regressions in chunks
 (when memory becomes an issue with datasets that are too large) and
 produce identical results to running a single regression on the
 dataset as a whole?
 
 Thanks!
 
 Dobo

Re: [R] Questions about biglm

2009-02-19 Thread John Fox
Dear Greg and Dobo,

The vif() in the car package computes VIFs (and generalized VIFs) from the
covariance matrix of the coefficients; I'm not sure whether it will work
directly on objects produced by biglm() but if not it should be easily
adapted to do so.

I hope this helps,

 Subject: Re: [R] Questions about biglm
 
 The idea of the biglm function is to only have part of the data in memory
at
 a time.  You read in part of the data and run biglm on that section of the
 data, then delete it from memory, load in the next part of the data and
use
 update to include the new data in the analysis, delete that, read in the
next
 group, run update, and repeat until you have processed all the data.  The
 result will then be the same as if you ran lm on the entire dataset
(possible
 slight differences due to rounding).  The bigglm function or code from
other
 packages (SQLiteDF for one) can automate this a bit more.
 
 The code for VIF below uses the model.matrix command, this returns the x
 matrix for the analysis when used with an lm object. Since biglm is based
on
 the idea of not having all the data in memory at once, I would be very
 surprised if model.matrix worked with biglm objects, so that code is
unlikely
 to work as is.
 
 One approach is to do VIF and other diagnostics on a subset of the data
 (random sample, stratified random sample) that fits easily into memory,
then
 after making decisions about the model based on the diagnostics, run the
 final model with biglm to get the precise results using the full data set.
 You can do the diagnostics on a couple different random subsets to confirm
 the decisions made.
 
 Hope this helps,

  Subject: [R] Questions about biglm
 
  Hello folks,
 
  I am very excited to have discovered R and have been exploring its
  capabilities. R's regression models are of great interest to me as my
  company is in the business of running thousands of linear regressions
  on large datasets.
 
  I am using biglm to run linear regressions on datasets that are as
  large as several GB's. I have been pleasantly surprised that biglm
  runs the regressions extremely fast (one regression may take minutes
  in SPSS vs seconds in R).
 
  I have been trying to wrap my head around biglm and have a couple of
  questions.
 
  1. How can I get VIF's (Variance Inflation Factors) using biglm? I was
  able to get VIF's from the regular lm function using this piece of
  code I found through Google, but have not been able to adapt it to
  work with biglm. Hasn't anyone been successful in this?
 
  vif.lm - function(object, ...) {
V - summary(object)$cov.unscaled
Vi - crossprod(model.matrix(object))
  nam - names(coef(object))
if(k - match((Intercept), nam, nomatch = F)) {
  v1 - diag(V)[-k]
  v2 - (diag(Vi)[-k] - Vi[k, -k]^2/Vi[k,k])
  nam - nam[-k]
  } else {
  v1 - diag(V)
  v2 - diag(Vi)
  warning(No intercept term detected. Results may
  surprise.)
  }
  structure(v1*v2, names = nam)
  }
 
  2. How reliable / stable is biglm's update() function? I was
  experimenting with running regressions on individual chunks of my
  large dataset, but the coefficients I got were different compared to
  those obtained form running biglm on the whole dataset. Am I mistaken
  when I say that update() is intended to run regressions in chunks
  (when memory becomes an issue with datasets that are too large) and
  produce identical results to running a single regression on the
  dataset as a whole?
 
  Thanks!
 
  Dobo

Re: [R] indicator or deviation contrasts in log-linear modelling

I realise that in the case of loglin the parameters are clacluated post

however other programmes that use Newton-Raphson as opposed to IPF work the
other way round, right?
In which case one would expect the output of parameters to be limited to the
particular contrast used. But since loglin uses IPF I would have thought the
choice of style of parameter to be output could be made...
Anyway, this is the line that interests me:


lm( as.vector( loglin(...,fit=TRUE)$fit ) ~  your favored contrasts  )


only I'm not profficient in R to figure out the last term :(
How would I go about this then if my prefered contrasti is setting the first
categories as reference cats?


See An Introduction to R Chapter 11

and try this:


 for ( i in ls('package:stats',pat='contr[.]')){
 cat( i, '\n' )
 print( get(i)(letters[1:5]) )
 options(contrasts=c(unordered=i,ordered='contr.poly'))
 print( coef( glm( Freq~ Dept*Gender,
as.data.frame(UCBAdmissions),family=poisson)) )
 }




I literaly just need the equivalent of

loglin(matrix(c(1,2,3,4), nrow=2), list(c(1,2)), param=TRUE)

which would give me parameters under indicator contrast. glm... well, I'd
have to work on it

Regarding the more general points

ad 2) I would have thought that direct inspection of cell frequencies is
precisely the wrong/misleading thing to do - the highest order coefficients
can be inspected directly in order to see the interaction without the
(lower) marginal effects, or alternatively the table can be standardized to
uniform margins for the same sort of inspection.


OK, to each her own.

But try this out yourself. What is the story here?

(Review ?UCBAdmissions, if you need to.)


options(contrasts=c(unordered='contr.sum',ordered='contr.poly'))
print( cbind(coef( glm( Freq~ Admit*Dept*Gender,

  as.data.frame(UCBAdmissions),family=poisson)) ))

statistician?


Now try it again. But with this display:

 Female  0.18 0.32 0.66 0.65 0.76 0.93


You can pretty easily see that admission rates vary by department, that 
all departments but one have pretty equal admission rates by gender and 
that in that department the rate is a 20% higher for females. (And yes, 
a significance test confirms this).


Maybe not a statistified as talking about three-way interactions and 
coefficients of products of contrasts, but I'll bet a lot of scientists 
would find the tables more compelling.


HTH,

Chuck



ad 3) and yes, I figured as much! I can't see how lower order terms can be
interpreted at all if higher order interactions exist? I've seen it done,
e.g I've seen it claimed that in a standardized table the lower order terms
are all equal to zero, which is of course not true?

Thanks!
Maja

To All,

I'm using R 2.8.1. I have attached two images, one shows what I get and
the other shows what I want. All I want is the plotting region. Surely
there must be a way of plotting individual regions/components in R?

Patrizio, I prefer filled.contour() for my data. I still have the same
problem (a legend to the right) if I use image() then contour()!
  


I don't see why you'd get a legend in that case.  But it's hard to get 
the contour lines to match the colour changes
when using image with contour, so I can see why you might prefer 
filled.contour.


I think you're going to have to edit filled.contour to do what you 
want.  It's not too hard:  just comment out the code that sets up the 
layout, then everything until just before the second plot.new().  Insert 
par(mar=c(0,0,0,0)), and you'll get a filled contour plot with no margins.

Hi,

Thanks for your help. I have looked at the beginners
documentation and while there are options to configure
various aspects of the plot none of them seem to have the
desired effect. I have managed to ensure that the plot fills
the space vertically with no margins, no axes etc (using
mai=c(0,0,0,0)). However, horizontally there remains a margin
to the right that pads the space between the filled.contour
and its legend.
I've tried options to par and filled.contour but I can't seem
to remove the legend.

Re: [R] matrix computation???

2009-02-19 Thread Greg Snow
You are computing the hat matrix to predict stack.loss, but stack.loss is a 
column in the A matrix, so you predictions are all perfect (given stack.loss, 
what is stack.loss, fairly simple answer, all errors are 0).  I think you want 
to redo this using only the 3 columns other than stack.loss in the call to svd, 
then you should get the results that you are expecting.

state=map('state',plot=F)$names

#set up some random state-color data
cols = 
as.data.frame(cbind(state=states,x=sample(1:10,length(states),replace=T)))

#do the plot
map('usa')
for(this_state in state){

map('state',region=this_state,add=T,fill=T,col=cols$x[cols$state==this_state])
}

 I'm getting a map, but the values are not being mapped to correct states.
 What do I need to do to fix that?

Re: [R] problem with using %in% condition while using in if() condition

2009-02-19 Thread Greg Snow
The %in% operator returns a vector of logicals the same length as the vector to 
the left. The if program flow operator expects a single logical value, not a 
vector, since you are giving it a vector it looks at just the 1st element, 
ignores the rest and gives the warning.  This warning should be taken seriously 
since it indicates that what is happening and what you intend probably do not 
match.  

If you tell us more about what you are trying to do, we can give more help.

Some possibilities:  use any() or all() to reduce the vector to a single 
logical value.
Use ifelse(), subscripting, or some other method to accomplish what you want.

 Hi all,
 I got one problem with using %in% condition while using in if()
 condition
 where
 I used the condition as
 
 
 if(SubFinSpt$SPECIMENTYP %in% CAP$SPECIMENTYP)
 
 this   if()condition is in  else condition
 and hear  *SubFinSpt$SPECIMENTYP* having only one value   but
 *CAP$SPECIMENTYP
 *having nearly 20 SPECIMENTYP's
 
 while applying this condition I got one warning that says  only first
 element is checked
 and after that warning it is executing normally and giving results
 but i want to know why it is giving this warning
 
 can any one explain why it is comming and how to resolve it
 
 thanks in advance

I assume you first tried without specifying directories?
The directories you use do not work for me, with WINEPATH the culprit.
If you do not have the latest wine I advise to upgrade  not specify

[R] Source code for nlm()

Where can I find the source code for nlm()?  I dowloaded the R2.8.1.tar.gz
file and looked at all the .c and .f files, but couldn't find either nlm.c
or nlm.f
 
There is an nlm.r file, but that is not useful.

 Hi Kenn,

 Thanks for the suggestions, I'll have to see if I can figure out how to

X - model.matrix(formula, data)

will calculate the X matrix for you.


 Not an expert in statistics myself, I am mostly concentrating on the

 are providing some guidance with the stats end are not quite experts
 themselves, and certainly new to R.

 Also lsfit() is a bit quicker than lm or lm.fit.

Re: [R] read.table : how to condition on error while opening file?

2009-02-19 Thread lauramorg...@bluewin.ch
Hello Stephane,
here is something you could try, 

filelist - c(file1.txt, file2.txt, file3.txt)
for (i in 1:3) {
tmpList-try(read.table(filelist[[i]]), silent=TRUE)
if(inherits(tmpList, try-error))
{print(paste(error opening file , filelist[[i]]))
} else {
tmp-read.table(filelist[[i]])-namelist[[i]]
   }
 }

There is though a problem that I didnt manage to fix, that is: if , suppose, 
file1.txt exists, file2 doesn't exist 
and file 3 exists,
the dataframe in file 1 will at first be called tmp, but then it will be 
substituted by the data.frame in file 3...
It is as if you would do:
c(1,2,3,4)-tmp
and then do
c(1,6,7,8)-tmp
the second tmp will substitute the first one...

Hope this helps
Laura

 Hi,

  

 I'm using read.table in a loop, to read in multiple files. The problem
 is that when a file is missing there is an error message and the loop is
 broken; what I'd like to do is to test for the error and simply do
 next instead of breaking the loop. Anybody knows how to do that?

  

 Example: 

  

 filelist - c(file1.txt, file2.txt, file3.txt)

  

 for (i in 1:3) {

   if (read.table(filelist[i]) == ERROR LOADING FILE) {
 # this is where I do not know how to write the condition

 print(paste(error opening file , filelist[i], sep=))

 next

   } else {

 tmp - read.table(filelist[i])

   }

 }

[R] TAR Models and predictive residuals

2009-02-19 Thread Andreas Klein
Hello R users.

There is a paper from Ruey Tsay with the title: Testing and Modelling 
Threshold Autoregressive Processes, published in 1989 in the Journal of the 
American Statistical Association (March, Vol. 84, No. 405).

Mr. Tsay describes a very interesting way of identifying and modelling 
threshold AR processes.

1. Is there a package in R or some routines, which implements his ideas and his 
methodology?

2. Is there a routine in R to calculate the predictive residuals (like defined 
in the paper)?


Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Andreas.

[R] Using R in Java?

2009-02-19 Thread nicro

Hi 2 questions-
1. Is there a package that will allow me to run R scripts (entirely) from
Java?
2. If so, is there a way to capture the output of those scripts, (including
images) and embed them in my SWT java app?

My challenge is I have a java app that does some statistical chores- it
would be fantastic if the users could use their R skills to modify a script
in whatever R environment they like and then my app could use that script to
calculate the results and display them in the app.

I have found StatET and JavaGD with rJava/JRI and read through all the
docs... its seems possible that some combination may give me what I want,
but its not very clear.

Any suggestions anyone?

Thanks!
