[R] Problem with fitdistr function

2008-02-09 Thread Aswad Gurjar
Hello,

I am using fitdistr function for parameter estimation.
 When I use
fd-fitdistr(V2,gamma)
I get following error:
Error in optim(x = c(0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L,  :
initial value in 'vmmin' is not finite

  fd-fitdistr(V2,weibull)
Error in optim(x = c(0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L,  :
non-finite value supplied by optim

But if I use following I dont get any errors.
fd-fitdistr(V2,exponential)

I have included necessary libraries.
How can i remove this error?Are there any restrictions in using fitdistr
function?If yes is there any alternative approach for solving such problem?
My aim is to get estimated value of parameters.

The density of a gamma distribution can be infinite at zero, so fitting 
to data with exact zeros is asking for trouble. Probably the sanest way 
to handle this sort of data is to treat the zeroes as left-censored 
observations, i.e. for x=0 use pgamma(0.5,) instead of 
dgamma(0,). I think fitdistr() will do this if you set up the 
density appropriately.

[R] waning msg when R is launched

During startup - Warning message:

I don't know what it comes from. It seems like a error thought not a fatal one.

 problem?
  My aim is to get estimated value of parameters.
 
 
 The density of a gamma distribution can be infinite at zero, so fitting
 to data with exact zeros is asking for trouble. Probably the sanest way
 to handle this sort of data is to treat the zeroes as left-censored
 observations, i.e. for x=0 use pgamma(0.5,) instead of
 dgamma(0,). I think fitdistr() will do this if you set up the
 density appropriately.

  Data is as follows:

You probably forgot to read in the data; converting alone does not help. 

Try ls() to get a list of the available objects.

Re: [R] waning msg when R is launched

2008-02-09 Thread Prof Brian Ripley
You haven't given us the 'minimal information' the posting guide asks for. 
Let's guess you are using a Chinese locale on Windows, in which case you 
cannot use readChar to read non-ASCII data (as the message says).

If so, it looks like this occurs when loading a saved workspace, and is 
just a warning that will not be important if the workspace is properly 
saved.

[R] scatterplot3d to display text

2008-02-09 Thread mauroyb0

Dear all, 

I'm looking for a way to display text (label) in a scatterplot3d instead of
the default dot. I mean someting like the text() function which can be
associated with plot(). Do you think this is possible ? 

My second question is quite well covered by some threads but I haven't been
able to find a definitive way of doing. Is there a way to enable rotation in
a scatterplot3d ?


Tank you in advance for your answers.

[R] Reading data from a dataframe

2008-02-09 Thread Alexander Ovodenko
Thanks for the replies to my prior question.  My problem is that R always
says object not found when I enter a variable name into a command.  I
converted a Stata file into an Rdata file by first loading the foreign
package by entering

require(foreign)

Then I asked R to read the Stata file by entering

pol572a1- read.dta(C:\\alex\\Graduate Coursework\\Pol 572\\pol572a1.dta)

So now I can do a few things with the data, but I am only able to do so by
entering

with(pol572a1,

before typing another command. So I enter the following for a scatter plot:
with(pol572a1, plot(rgnpc, incmean))

When I run a simple linear regression, I enter the following: with(pol572a1,
lm(incmean~rgnpc))

But when try to get a fitted line, I enter the following: with(pol572a1, lm(
share.gnp)-lm(incmean~rgnpc))  But I get the following error message: Error
in lm(share.gnp) - lm(incmean ~ rgnpc) : object share.gnp not found

So what should I do to get R to read the dataframe in the ordinary way with
the usual command?  I am willing to scrap this dataframe and use the
original Stata file to start over, as long as that resolves the problem.

Thanks!

Alex

[R] R is not reading(?) my data properly

2008-02-09 Thread Alexander Ovodenko
 Thanks for the replies to my prior question.  My problem is that R always
says object not found when I enter a variable name into a command.  I
converted a Stata file into an Rdata file by first loading the foreign
package by entering

require(foreign)

Then I asked R to read the Stata file by entering

pol572a1- read.dta(C:\\alex\\Graduate Coursework\\Pol 572\\pol572a1.dta)

So now I can do a few things with the data, but I am only able to do so by
entering

with(pol572a1,

before typing another command. So I enter the following for a scatter plot:
with(pol572a1, plot(rgnpc, incmean))

When I run a simple linear regression, I enter the following: with(pol572a1,
lm(incmean~rgnpc))

But when try to get a fitted line, I enter the following: with(pol572a1, lm(
share.gnp)-lm(incmean~rgnpc))  But I get the following error message: Error
in lm(share.gnp) - lm(incmean ~ rgnpc) : object share.gnp not found

So what should I do to get R to read the dataframe in the ordinary way with
the usual command?  I am willing to scrap this dataframe and use the
original Stata file to start over, as long as that resolves the problem.

Thanks!

Alex

Re: [R] Loading Data to R

My simple-minded approach is simply to save the data
as a csv file and read it in using read.table or
read.csv

Re: [R] R ver 2.0.1 NA in Probability Vector Error Messages

2008-02-09 Thread ONKELINX, Thierry
Gabriella,

First of all I would suggest that you upgrade to a recent R version
(2.6.2).

Without a reprodicible example of your code it is very hard to examine
the problem. Use traceback() to identify were the problem occurs in your
code.

Onderwerp: [R] R ver 2.0.1 NA in Probability Vector Error Messages

Hello, 

   I am currently operating R version 2.0.1. I am running an analysis
that uses previously written fuctions that I load into R 2.0.1 via the
file menu (file--load workspace). There are other colleagues on my team
that are operating the same version of R, using the same input datafile,
the same workspace, and the same R code to run this analysis. Their
analysis runs without any errors, yet mine does does not. The analysis
that we are running attempts to create a  sample of individuals that
meets certain compositional demographic criteria. To achieve this we ask
R to run though up to 10,000 iterations before producing a sample that
BEST (i.e., with the smallest rate of error) conforms to the proportions
of these demographic characteristics that we specify. When I run this
analysis, R produces an output file that results from fewer interations
with higher error rates than what my colleagues have achieved when
running the same exact code on the same exact data. The error message
that populates my R output window is as follows: Error in
sample(length(x), size, replace, prob) : NA in probability vector. I do
not understand why I receive this error message, whereas my colleages do
not. Any guidance/advice would we extremely helpful!

Thank You!

Re: [R] shortest distance between two point pattern

2008-02-09 Thread huber
Dear Miltinho,

there is also the function matchpt in the Biobase package (in 
Bioconductor) that seems to do what you want (in n dimensions).

It's written in C, and the implementation is simple and of complexity 
n*m. (For larger problems, there are more efficient nearest neighbor 
search algorithms, but I am not aware whether or where in R.). This one 
works well for medium sized problem as in your example.

 Dear all, 
 
 I'm looking for a way to display text (label) in a scatterplot3d instead of

 associated with plot(). Do you think this is possible ? 

Yes, it is, type:

vignette(s3d, scatterplot3d)

and take a look at example on pages 18-19 which is almost the same as 
page 14 of

Ligges, U. and Mächler, M. (2003): Scatterplot3d - an R Package for 
Visualizing Multivariate Data.  Journal of Statistical Software 8 (11), 
1-20.

It makes use of the function xyz.convert() that is included in the 
returned object from scatterplot3d().




 My second question is quite well covered by some threads but I haven't been
 able to find a definitive way of doing. Is there a way to enable rotation in
 a scatterplot3d ?

Well just some limited rotation by specifying the angle. If you want 
nice interactive rotation of things, I'd recommend package rgl.

Best wishes,
Uwe Ligges

You'd need

plot(incmean ~ rgnpc, data = po1572a1)

(The reason for this limitation is that plot needs to evaluate its first

 lm(incmean~rgnpc))
 
 But when try to get a fitted line, I enter the following: with(pol572a1,
 lm(
 share.gnp)-lm(incmean~rgnpc))  But I get the following error message:
 Error
 in lm(share.gnp) - lm(incmean ~ rgnpc) : object share.gnp not found
 
 So what should I do to get R to read the dataframe in the ordinary way
 with
 the usual command?  I am willing to scrap this dataframe and use the
 original Stata file to start over, as long as that resolves the problem.
 
 Thanks!

 That won't work:  share.gnp.mdl will be created in the local
 environment created by with(), and then discarded.  You need to put
 it outside, i.e. 
 
 share.gnp.mdl - with(pol572a1, lm(incmean~rgnpc) )
 

Thank you for the correction. I see that I was committing the same error 
I had described above it albeit in a different manner. I do hope he first 
saw your earlier post, or that of Onkelinx suggesting the data=  
approach before following me into a blind alley.

 Greetings.

 At the moment, I'm applying R to some AIX 'nmon' output, trying to get

 some of them are more edifying than others. (ahem)

 I'm trying to develop a somewhat general framework for plotting these
 measures, in the hopes that it's of some use to people other than me.
 One obstacle I encounter is that, when I select one column out of a
 data.frame, the result is no longer a data.frame.  So, say I've got,
 in data frame 'input'

   disk1 disk2 disk3 disk4
 T 0 1 0 4
 T0001 0 1 0 5
 T0002 0 1 0 5
 T0003 0 2 0 4

 T0005 0 1 0 3
 T0006 0 0 0 3

 and somewhere I've noted a list

 targets - c('disk2','disk3')

 I can say

 input[,targets]
   disk2 disk3
 T 1 0
 T0001 1 0
 T0002 1 0
 T0003 2 0
 T0004 2 0
 T0005 1 0
 T0006 0 0

 but if

 targets - c('disk2')
 input[,targets]
 [1] 1 1 1 2 2 1 0

 Ick.

 I've been reading through the indexing and data.frame docs, and remain
 unsatisfied so far.  Where is my thinking going wrong?

 this should maintain the classes of the vectors. I'm guessing that y

[R] Comparing spatial point patterns - Syrjala test

2008-02-09 Thread jiho
Dear Lists,

At several stations distributed regularly in space[1], we sampled  
repeatedly (4 times) the abundance of organisms and measured  
environmental parameters. I now want to compare the spatial  
distribution of various species (and test wether they differ or not),  
or to compare the distribution of a particular organism with the  
distribution of some environmental variable.
Syrjala's test[2] seems to be appropriate for such comparisons. The  
hamming distance is also used (but it is not associated with a test).  
However, as far as I understand it, Syrjala's test only compares the  
distribution gathered during one sampling event, while I have four  
successive repeats and:
- I am interested in comparing if, on average, the distributions are  
the same
- I would prefer to keep the information regarding the variability of  
the abundances in time, rather than just comparing the means, since  
the abundances are quite variable.

Therefore I have two questions for all the knowledgeable R users on  
these lists:
- Is there a package in which Syrjala's test is implemented for R?
- Is there another way (a better way) to test for such differences?

Thank you very much in advance for your help.

Those are not in the Adobe Symbol encoding used for plotmath.

Since you have not told us your platform and locale as requested in the 
posting guide, I don't know if the following is relevant to you.

If you have a suitable Unicode font and the means to use it (which most 
likely means a UTF-8 locale in R  2.7.0) they are the glyphs for \u226a 
and \u226b (see 
http://www.alanwood.net/unicode/mathematical_operators.html).  A quick

 Could someone check and confirm that the MD5 sums on the CRAN server
 are incorrect?  (And fix it?)  Thanks,

 p.s.  Given that two CRAN servers have the bad value, I'm guessing
 it's safe to install.  It installed okay is seems to be running fine.

Thanks for noticing this.  I don't know what happened, but the version 
that was uploaded was shorter than the real one, which should have 
30750532 bytes.  The md5sum.txt file is correct for the real one, but 
doesn't match the truncated one.

I've redone the upload, and now the md5sum matches.  It will take some 
time for CRAN to synchronize with the change; it won't be immediately 
visible.  But I also changed the page to say Last change: 2008-02-09, 
so if you see that date, you should be getting the right download.

I'll have to put some tests into the upload script.

[R] md5 hash is wrong for 2.6.2 (Windows)

2008-02-09 Thread Paul Lynch
Hi,
   I've downloaded R-2.6.2-win32.exe (base) from two CRAN sites

I've worked out what happened:  there was a build of R-patched which 
overwrote the release, because it happened before the VERSION file had 
been updated to include Patched.  I don't upload md5sum.txt in the 
R-patched or R-devel scripts, so that's why you detected the difference.

To confirm this, you could check the NEWS file:  it contained entries 
for 2.6.2 Patched, as well as the 2.6.2 entries.  As far as I know it's 
perfectly safe to use.

 Since you have not told us your platform and locale as requested in  
 the posting guide

R version 2.7.0 Under development (unstable) (2008-02-05 r44340)
i386-apple-darwin8.10.1

locale:
C

 I don't know if the following is relevant to you.

 If you have a suitable Unicode font and the means to use it (which  
 most likely means a UTF-8 locale in R  2.7.0) they are the glyphs  
 for \u226a and \u226b (see 
 http://www.alanwood.net/unicode/mathematical_operators.html) 
 .  A quick check suggests that not many fonts do.

Thanks. The Mac character palette tells me that they correspond to  
Unicode 226A and B or UTF8 E2 89 AA and AB.

My question now is, how do I tell expression() to use the glyphs for  
these?

Re: [R] error in the function

2008-02-09 Thread jim holtman
a quick look at it shows you would be trying to access y[n+1] in the
last part of that loop and that is greater than the number of entries
in 'y' so you will get an NA and this is not legal for comparisons.

Re: [R] Error in optim while using fitdistr() function

 Hello,

 I am trying to fit distribution for data consisting of 421 readings.It is
 basically no of requests arrived per minute.It contains many 0 entries as
 no of requests.When i use
 fd-fitdistr(V2,gamma)
 I get following error:

 What should I do ? I need this function because I want to get value of
 estimated parameters.
 Is there any other function to perform such calculations?

[R] PCA + Hotelling's T^2

2008-02-09 Thread Pedro Mardones
Dear R users;
Is there any function to plot the confidence ellipse (Hotelling's T^2)
in an score plot from a PCA?
I have the scores off course , say scores for PC1 and PC2, and the
value of the Hotelling's T^2 statistic.
Thanks for any hint

Re: [R] [R-sig-Geo] Comparing spatial point patterns - Syrjala test

 http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/Rhelp02a/archive/51226.html

Thank you for your answer. Indeed I saw this email during my research
before posting my message. Unfortunately nobody answered it. I just
hoped that things may have improved in this area of R since then and
that potential authors, such as authors of the spatstat package, would
be reading these lists.
I will contact those people personally indeed.

Thanks again.

  At several stations distributed regularly in space[1], we sampled
  repeatedly (4 times) the abundance of organisms and measured
  environmental parameters. I now want to compare the spatial
  distribution of various species (and test wether they differ or not),
  or to compare the distribution of a particular organism with the
  distribution of some environmental variable.
  Syrjala's test[2] seems to be appropriate for such comparisons. The
  hamming distance is also used (but it is not associated with a test).
  However, as far as I understand it, Syrjala's test only compares the
  distribution gathered during one sampling event, while I have four
  successive repeats and:
  - I am interested in comparing if, on average, the distributions are
  the same
  - I would prefer to keep the information regarding the variability of
  the abundances in time, rather than just comparing the means, since
  the abundances are quite variable.
 
  Therefore I have two questions for all the knowledgeable R users on
  these lists:
  - Is there a package in which Syrjala's test is implemented for R?
  - Is there another way (a better way) to test for such differences?
 
  Thank you very much in advance for your help.

Hello,

Thank You for response.Yes,It is discrete data.I have tried discrete model

discrete data?
When I try goodfit() test for discrete distribution:

where x[[1]] is my data with 9 bins.

 Chenge your model, most likely.

 You are telling us a) the response is discrete and b) there is a
 substantial probability that the value is zero.  The gamma distributon
 is a model for a continuous response, your response is integer valued.
 Perhaps you should consider something the Poisson or Negative Binomial.

 Evem from the little you give us, the problem seems more statistical
 than computational to me.

 What should I do ? I need this function because I want to get value of
 estimated parameters.
 Is there any other function to perform such calculations?
 Please help me.
 Thank You.

 Code is as follows:
 x-data.frame()
 N-data.frame((read.table(cs2ip.txt)))
 attach(N)
 library(MASS)
 fd-fitdistr(V2,gamma)

Re: [R] Error in optim while using fitdistr() function for estimationof parameters

Chenge your model, most likely.

You are telling us a) the response is discrete and b) there is a
substantial probability that the value is zero.  The gamma distributon
is a model for a continuous response, your response is integer valued.
Perhaps you should consider something the Poisson or Negative Binomial.

Evem from the little you give us, the problem seems more statistical
than computational to me.

Subject: [R] Error in optim while using fitdistr() function for
estimationof parameters

  Hello,

I am trying to fit distribution for data consisting of 421 readings.It
is
basically no of requests arrived per minute.It contains many 0 entries
as no
of requests.When i use
fd-fitdistr(V2,gamma)
I get following error:
Error in optim(x = c(0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L,
:
initial value in 'vmmin' is not finite

What should I do ? I need this function because I want to get value of
estimated parameters.
Is there any other function to perform such calculations?
Please help me.
Thank You.

Code is as follows:
x-data.frame()
N-data.frame((read.table(cs2ip.txt)))
