Re: [R] apply a function down each column

2010-01-12 Thread Laetitia Schmid

Dear Steve,
my solution looks like it would work, but it does not.
I attached a text file with an extract of my data. Maybe you can try  
it yourself. I want to compare C1 with M1, C2 with M2, C3 with M3,,,  
for each column.
I do not really know what the problem is. R complains about a syntax  
error.
The function I am applying counts the common strings between the two.  
Greg Hirson helped me to write it.


lettermatch - function(a, b) {
   tb - merge(as.data.frame(table(strsplit(a, ))),  
as.data.frame(table(strsplit(b, ))), by=Var1)

   sum(apply(tb[-1], 1, min))
}

For example for the second column I tried:

for (x in 1:(nrow(dat)-1)) {
a - as.character(dat[(2x-1),1])
b - as.character(dat[(2x),1])
 lettermatch(a,b)
}

or

 a - as.character(dat[seq(1, nrow(dat), by=2),2])
 b - as.character(dat[seq(2, nrow(dat), by=2), 2])
 all.results - lettermatch(a,b)

With dat-read.delim(data_lgs.txt,stringsAsFactors=FALSE) I can  
leave the as.character away in the formula above.

It seems as if you got it already, don't you?

 b - dat[(2x), 1]
 my_function(a,b)

Is there a specification of tapply for that?


I don't think so, but depending on what you want to do, the size of
your data, and the amount of RAM you have, it might be faster to
compare everything at once (assuming `my_function` can be
vectorized), for instance:

a - dat[seq(1, nrow(dat), by=2),1]
b - dat[seq(2, nrow(dat), by=2), 1]
all.results - my_function(a,b)

Also, as an aside, I see you keep calling as.character on your data
when you extract it from your data.frame. Is your data being converted
to factors? You can look to set stringsAsFactors=FALSE if this is the
case and you are reading in data using read.table/delim/etc (see:
?read.table)

Hope that helps,

Re: [R] HoltWinters Forecasting

2010-01-12 Thread Peter Ehlers

In situations where an ancient version and a less ancient
version of R give different results for the same data it's
a good idea to check the NEWS file. For HoltWinters() you
will find an entry for R VERSION 2.8.0 that indicates a
change in the default number of start periods used to
autodetect start values from 3 to 2. While this may be
good for 'tidy' series, your series has a pretty messy
start. Another way to look for obvious differences in an
older version of a function and a newer one is to check
the help page and note the arguments and their default
values. Either way, you would find:

start.periods = 3 (R 2.7.2)
start.periods = 2 (R 2.9.1)

So, to get results more reasonable than the obvious junk
produced with start.periods = 2, try 3.

Do upgrade to 2.10.1, though.

 Subject: [R] warning inside loop
 
 
 Hi,
 
 I'm running some data simulations using (mixed effects)* 
 regression models
 that show difficulty to converge. Therefore, I seek a way of capturing
 warnings (of false convergence) inside a loop.
 
 Inside that loop, I modify data and estimate a model. I do so 
 many times
 with slightly different modifications of the data. Next, I 
 extract some of
 the model parameters and store these in a matrix. However, as 
 some of the
 models do not converge well, some of the stored parameters 
 are extracted
 from the ill-converged models. Therefore, I seek a way of 
 automatically
 detecting whether the estimation procedure has resulted in a 
 warning, so I
 can distinguish between the well- and ill-converged models.
 
 I have been trying to use functions as warnings(), as well as 
 using the
 object last.warning, but unfortunately to no avail.
 
 Try withCallingHandlers(), as in the following function
 with returns the value of the expression along with
 any warning messages as a list:
 
 withWarnings
 function (expr) 
 {
 warnings - character()
 retval - withCallingHandlers(expr, warning = function(ex) {
 warnings - c(warnings, conditionMessage(ex))
 invokeRestart(muffleWarning)
 })
 list(Value = retval, Warnings = warnings)
 }
 environment: R_GlobalEnv
 
 Typical usage would be:
 lapply(-1:1, function(i)withWarnings(log(i)))
 [[1]]
 [[1]]$Value
 [1] NaN
 
 [[1]]$Warnings
 [1] NaNs produced
 
 
 [[2]]
 [[2]]$Value
 [1] -Inf
 
 [[2]]$Warnings
 character(0)
 
 
 [[3]]
 [[3]]$Value
 [1] 0
 
 [[3]]$Warnings
 character(0)
 
 Perhaps there is some encapsulation of this already in some
 package, as try() encapsulates error catching.

 Spotfire, TIBCO Software
 wdunlap tibco.com 
 
 
 Although I cannot provide a reproducible example, I 
 schematically represent
 the procedure I seek to use below:
 
 
 for (i in 1:10)
 {
 modify data
 estimate model
 
 evaluate whether estimation produced warning
 
 extract model parameters, and store whether warning occured
 }
 
 I hope any one can give some guidelines on how to deal with 
 warnings inside
 a loop.
 
 With Kind regards,
 
 Rense
 
 
 
 
 
 *Although I use the lme4 package for that actual analysis, I sent my
 question to this mailinglist (instead of the R mixed list) 
 because I believe
 this is a general issue, rather than one associated 
 exclusively with mixed
 models.

[R] read.spss: option to.data.frame and string variables

2010-01-12 Thread RINNER Heinrich
Dear R-users,

I am using R version 2.10.1 and package foreign version 0.8-39 under windows.

When reading .sav-Files (PASW Statistics 18.0.1) containing string variables, 
these are automatically converted to factors when using option to.data.frame = 
TRUE (see example below).
It's clear to me why this happens (the default behaviour of a call to 
as.data.frame). But this is not always what one might want (or even be aware 
of).

So maybe one of the following improvements could be made?
* Add a description of this behaviour in ?read.spss.
* Or (even better): Add an extra argument, like: 
read.spss(C:\\temp\\test.sav, to.data.frame = TRUE, stringsAsFactors = FALSE).

Just a suggestion;
kind regards
Heinrich.

# EXAMPLE:
Suppose there is a simple file test.sav, containing one variable (x) of 
type STRING with 3 values (a,b,c).
 library(foreign)
 test - read.spss(C:\\temp\\test.sav)
 test
$x
[1] abc   

attr(,label.table)
attr(,label.table)$x
NULL

attr(,codepage)
[1] 1252
 is.factor(test$x)
[1] FALSE
 is.character(test$x)
[1] TRUE
# Ok, that's just fine. But things change when using option to.data.frame = 
TRUE:
 test - read.spss(C:\\temp\\test.sav, to.data.frame = TRUE)
 test
 x
1 a
2 b
3 c
 is.factor(test$x)
[1] TRUE
 is.character(test$x)

Hello,

I have a graphic and I want to plot the yaxis AND ylab on the right.
I manage to plot axis on the right with axis(4) but I don't know how to
write the ylab on the right.

barplot(data, name=leg, xlab=Probability, ylab=Number of links, axes=F)
axis(4)

And another question :
Is there an easy way to indicate that directly on barplot command ?


Thank you,

These packages have libraries that work for 32-bit R.

You need to compile 64-bit versions from sources using the setup as 
described in Brian Ripley's message on R-devel and in the R Installation 
and Administration manual.


Package repositories for 64-bit versions are not yet online for that 
*experimental* 64-bit version - although I am currently syncing them. 
The latter means an also *experimental* repository of 64-bit packages 
for Windows may go online in the CRAN network within very few days.


Note that you will need to set that repository manually for now.

In the meantime, you can get packages from my more or less private 
repository as follows:


install.packages(c(SparseM, quantreg),

contriburl=http://www.statistik.tu-dortmund.de/~ligges/CRAN/bin/windows64/contrib/2.11;, 


dependencies = TRUE)

Re: [R] drop1: warning message

No idea, you may want to tell us all your calls and give a reproducible 
example as well as properly formatted code that is more readable than 
the stuff below.


I guess you omitted some other warnings that tell you about too few 
obervations to fit the model (the fitted probabilities numerically 0 or 
1 occurred is a weak indication that your model may be overspecified).

Re: [R] read.spss: option to.data.frame and string variables

2010-01-12 Thread David Winsemius
It would be an significant undertaking to annotate all the places  
where the default behavior of strings-to-factors conversion might trip  
up the unwary. You are not the first by any means to complain. You  
might:
a) take the step that the Mayo Clinic has taken of setting the default  
in options() to FALSE, or
b) make your own read.spss with your desired arguments, and then put  
it in your .Rprofile.

[R] Beginer data.frame

2010-01-12 Thread Jean-Baptiste Combes
Hello,

I use R 2.10, and I am new in R (I used to use SAS and lately Stata), I am
using XP.

I have a data which has a data.frame format called x.df (read from a csv
file). I want to take from this data observations for which the variable
Code starts with an R. I took all the Code and put them into a vector
vec-grep(R[A-Z][A-Z],x.df$Code,value=TRUE)

Then I created a function that is supposed to take all the lines in the my
data x.df for which Code equals one value of vec. See the code below
where I created a loop to do that.

 myfunc-function(data,var2,var1)
+ {
+ i=1
+ while (i632){
+ line-subset(data,var2==var1[i])
+ if (i==1){
+ df-line
+ df-data.frame(df)
+ }
+ else {
+ line-data.frame(line)
+ df-rbind(df,line)
+ }
+ i-i+1
+ }
+ fix(df)
+ }


The results of my program higly depend on the few last lines of the program.
If I put fix(df), as above, the function opens a window with my data and
it seems a sensible results (I have not checked in details but I barely have
what I am suppose to get).
 myfunc-function(data,var2,var1)
...
+ }
+ df-data.frame(df)
+ print(is.data.frame(df))
+ }
 myfunc(x.df,x.df$Code,vec)
[1] TRUE
 print(is.data.frame(df))
[1] FALSE

In the case above I ask whether or not the df is a data.frame and the
answer is true, when the program has ended, I ask again and the answer is
false.

Could anyone tell me what to do to get this data and could anyone tell me
why those differences in the results?

[R] Reading a file with mixed cyrillic/latin characters

2010-01-12 Thread Stephan Kolassa

Dear useRs,

I am trying to read a tab-delimited Unicode text file containing both 
latin and cyrillic characters and failing miserably. The file looks like 
this (I hope it comes across right):


A   B   C
3   foo ФОО
5   bar БАР

read.table(foo.txt,sep=\t,header=TRUE)

I am guessing that I can use the fileEncoding argument to read.table() 
to read this, but I can find no list of supported values of 
fileEncoding, and fileEncoding=Unicode gives an error.


The FAQ and the FAQ for Windows don't help. I have searched both the 
list archives and RSeek and am still seeking enlightenment. I am running 
R 2.10.1 on Windows XP, sessionInfo() below.


Cheers

Re: [R] R for windows 64 bit

Fine, it worked. I will try in this way.

Just the last question and I won't bother you further today. My

memory.limit is 6135.

How is the command to increase the memory usage until the maximum I

which is quite odd.

Re: [R] Beginer data.frame

2010-01-12 Thread Stephan Kolassa

Hi Jean-Baptiste,

two points:

1) Your variable df is a *local* variable which you define in your 
function myfunc(), so it is not known outside myfunc(). When you ask 
is.data.frame(df), R looks at the global definition of df - which is the 
density function of the F distribution. To make your function run 
(especially interactively) will require a major rewrite.


2) Generally, using variable names that are already used as R objects 
(like df in your example) is a bad idea. For an example of the 
problems you can run into, see 1) above.


3) Loops are not the R way. Depending on what you want to do with the 
subset of your data.frame, you may want to do something like this:


x.df[substr(x.df$Code,1,1)==R,]

Look at ?substr to learn more - this function is vectorized, meaning 
that it takes a vector input and returns a vector output. Look at 
section 2.7 in An introduction to R.


Good luck!

Hello,

I use R 2.10, and I am new in R (I used to use SAS and lately Stata), I am

I have a data which has a data.frame format called x.df (read from a csv
file). I want to take from this data observations for which the variable
Code starts with an R. I took all the Code and put them into a vector
vec-grep(R[A-Z][A-Z],x.df$Code,value=TRUE)

Then I created a function that is supposed to take all the lines in the my
data x.df for which Code equals one value of vec. See the code below
where I created a loop to do that.


myfunc-function(data,var2,var1)

+ df-rbind(df,line)
+ }
+ i-i+1
+ }
+ fix(df)
+ }

The results of my program higly depend on the few last lines of the program.
If I put fix(df), as above, the function opens a window with my data and
it seems a sensible results (I have not checked in details but I barely have
what I am suppose to get).

myfunc-function(data,var2,var1)

myfunc(x.df,x.df$Code,vec)

[1] TRUE

print(is.data.frame(df))

[1] FALSE

In the case above I ask whether or not the df is a data.frame and the
answer is true, when the program has ended, I ask again and the answer is
false.

Could anyone tell me what to do to get this data and could anyone tell me
why those differences in the results?

I am not sure if I understood you correctly, but could a simple:

subset(x.df, substring(Code,1,1)==R)

be an appropriate solution?

[R] time series analys by resting the effect of a covariate

2010-01-12 Thread Simone Santoro

Hi,

Does anyone know a way to estimate the existence of a temporal trend (each unit 
of the sample is a count) by resting the possible effect of a covariate (i.e. 
climatic factor)?
I have periodical counts of several species of waterbirds during the last 13 
years and I want to know if, resting the effect of the flooded area available, 
there would be a temporal trend.
I know the flooded area is correlated with the time series data of most of 
species I'm taking in account.

I had a look to time series section of the http://cran.r-project.org
but I didn't find nothing on this issue.

Thanks for any response

[R] coerce vector into array - change filling sequence

2010-01-12 Thread Kohleth Chia
Dear all,

When I coerce a vector into a multi dimensional array, I would like R to start 
filling the array along the last dimension, then the 2nd last etc.
Let's jump straight into an example.

x - 1 : 24
y - array(dim=c(2,2,6))

I would like to have:
y[1,1,1] = 1
y[1,1,2] = 2
...
y[1,1,6] = 6
y[1,2,1] = 7
y[1,2,2] = 8
...
y[2,1,1] = 13
...
y[2,2,1] = 19

if I do y- array(x, dim=c(2,2,6)), i think I will get
y[1,1,1] = 1
y[2,1,1] = 2
(or something not I want) instead.

Of course, I need a fast solution, as I am actually dealing with array of much 
larger size.
Any input will be appreciated
Thanks a lot

Re: [R] coerce vector into array - change filling sequence

Hi,

you can permute array dimensions using aperm():

x - 1 : 24
z - array(x, dim=c(6,2,2))
y - aperm(z,perm=c(3,2,1))
y[1,1,]

[R] Conditional Sampling

2010-01-12 Thread ehcpieterse

Hi,

I am hoping someone can help me with a sampling question.

I am using the following function to sample 10 unique observations: x -
sample(1:100, 10, replace=F)
Given the first 10 observations, I need to sample another 5 unique
observations from the remainder. I essentially want to do a Monte Carlo type
analysis on the results.

I would appreciate any feedback.

Thanks

 Hi Mister Vanhalen,
 Try this:

  And another question :
 Is there an easy way to indicate that directly on barplot command ?




 A quick look at the axis command has not revealed it.

 -- 

If your second sampling is to be on the same footing as the first,
i.e. a random subset of 5 out of the remaining 90, then this is
equivalent to sampling 15 in the first place and using the first
10 of these as your first sample:

  set.seed(54321)
  x0 - sample(1:100, 15, replace=F)
  x  - x0[1:10]
  y  - x0[-(1:10)]
  x0
  # [1] 43 50 18 27 21 83  5 20 32 34 13 61  4 57 86
  x
  # [1] 43 50 18 27 21 83  5 20 32 34
  y
  # [1] 13 61  4 57 86

  set.seed(54321)
  sample(1:100, 10, replace=F)
  # [1] 43 50 18 27 21 83  5 20 32 34

However, if the manner of taking the second sample from the
remainder will depend on the results of the first sample, then
further consideration is necessary. If this is the case, can you
indicate how the values in the first sample would influence how
the second sample is to be obtained?

Another approach, which leaves more options, is to use sample.int():

  set.seed(54321)
  X - (1:100) ## (or any other 100 values)
  n - sample.int(100,10,replace=FALSE) ## returns subset of (1:100)
  x - X[n]
  Y - X[-n]
  y - sample(Y,5,replace=FALSE)

  x
  # [1] 43 50 18 27 21 83  5 20 32 34 ## (as before)
  y
  # [1] 14 70  4 66 96## (as before)

Hoping this helps,
Ted.

Re: [R] Drought Severity Index (DSI)

A few years ago, I work with Stuart Gage who had developed a Heat /
Precipitation Index as a measure of drought severity.  It works just as
well if not better than the Palmer Drought Index.

You can find the formula in this only pdf report:  Climate Variability in
the North Central Region:

If you can not download the file.  Write to me individually and I'll send

Hello Jim,

Thanks for the response. I have the algorithm based on the original
paper (Bryant et al. 1994) and subsequent modification by Philips and
McGregor(1994). The latter gives the formula for calculating the index
in MS Excel. I'm trying to translate it to R.

Re: [R] Conditional Sampling

2010-01-12 Thread ehcpieterse

Thanks Ted, your solution does make perfect sense.

The only question I still have is that I would like to sample the remaining
5 observations after I have randomly selected the first 10. Given the
initial 10, I would like to sample the following 5 say 1,000 times to get a
simulated conditional sample, if that makes any sense.

I want to build this into an iterative process to see how the first sample
affects the resulting samples. Even though all the observations have the
same probabilty to get sampled, they each have a different expected value.

OK, if I now understand you, you are interested in the properties
of the remaining (90) observations, given that they do not include
any of the (10) cases sampled in the first round.

In that case, I think you should adopt the sample.int() approach
I also suggested:

  X - (1:100) ## (or any other 100 values)
  n - sample.int(100,10,replace=FALSE) ## returns subset of (1:100)
  x - X[n]
  Y - X[-n]   ## The set remaining after the first 10 were taken
  ## Now you can sample repeatedly from Y until your eyes fall out.
  ## So build up a matrix of (say) 1000 samples from Y:
  M - sample(Y,5,replace=FALSE)
  for(i in (2:1000)){ M - rbind(M,sample(Y,5,replace=FALSE)) }

The repeated samples M of 5 from Y of course imply replacing each
sample of 5 back in Y, so they are available at each turn. You can
not, of course, sample 1000*5 from 100 without replacement! (Each
sample of 5 is obtained without replacement, however).

I hope this is getting close!
Ted.

There are also two graph/network analysis packages available for R,

Formerly the package-manual.tex was around too --- very handy for various

[R] List arguments from data frame columns in formula

2010-01-12 Thread npobedina

Hi!
I'm trying to run logistic regression on a dataset which is contained in
dataframe data (y is in the first col, and 28 parameters for the model).
How can I write formula for function `glm` without listing explicitly all 28
paramaters?
`glm(data[,1]~data[,2]+data[,3]+data[,4]+...,family=binomial)`

As an option I can use `glm.fit(data[,-1],data[,1],family =
binomial(link=logit))`. But the obtained object cannot be used in function
`predict.glm`.

Thanks,
Natalia

[R] Multiple symbols per single line in a legend

2010-01-12 Thread Primoz PETERLIN
Hello everybody,

Is it possible to coax legend() into displaying more than one simbol per
line in legend? I have a graph like the one attached to this mail; I would
like to reorganize the legend in such a way that the duplicate text would be
omitted, i.e., the first line would read square triangledown increasing
frequency and the second one would read circle triangleup decreasing
frequency. Before resorting to box() and text() I would like to check
whether some clever method already exists that would solve my problem. :)

Thanks in advance.

All the best,

[R] Placing eps files from R into Adobe InDesign documents: specifying fontfamily

2010-01-12 Thread dwalcerz

This is a solution I am posting for a problem that others may have.

If you want to:
1.  Place lattice graphics from R into an Adobe InDesign document, and
2.  Use the export as eps function in R to maximize resolution (it is much
better than exporting as a metafile or bitmap), and
3.  Use long strings of text in your titles or captions or to label your
axes.

Then you will have problems because:
1.  Adobe InDesign doesn't recognize R fontfamilies in eps files, and
2.  Adobe InDesing replaces the default R font, Helvetica, with a fontfamily
that looks like Courier, which significantly changes the physical length of
each character string and disrupts the spacing and justification of titles,
captions, and axis labels.

The way I solved this problem is:
1.  When you execute a graph in R, use the Hershey family of fonts.  I
particulary like HersheySans.  You can specify the fontfamily for axes and
strips and titles as shown in the example below.
2.  Export the file in eps by right-clicking the on-screen display and
selecting 'save as postscript'.
3.  Place the file in InDesign using the usual command (ctrl-D) and
selecting the file.  You will still get the Adobe error about unrecognized
fonts, but the automatic replacement that Adobe uses for the Hershey
fontfamily is much better than the one they use for Helvetica, your spacing
and justification will be almost perfect, and you get the excellent
resolution and small size of vector-graphics.

In the following example the fontfamily is specified for strips, axes, and
titles with these lines:
par.strip.text=list(fontfamily=HersheySans) #for strips
scales=list(alternating=1, tck=c(1,0), fontfamily=HersheySans) #for axes
xlab=list(Combined Score, fontfamily=HersheySans) #for titles such as
'main', 'sub', 'xlab' and 'ylab'

Here is the example:
bwplot(school.name~score|assessment+course_code, data=temp2.stack,
plot.points=FALSE, drop.unused.levels=TRUE,
panel=function(..., box.ratio, varwidth) {
panel.violin(..., col=cornsilk, varwidth=FALSE, 
box.ratio=box.ratio)
panel.bwplot(..., box.ratio=0.1)
},
layout=c(2,3,1),
par.strip.text=list(fontfamily=HersheySans),
scales=list(alternating=1, tck=c(1,0),
fontfamily=HersheySans,
x=list(relation=same, cex=0.7, rot=90),
y=list(relation=same, cex=0.7, rot=0)),
xlab=list(Combined Score, fontfamily=HersheySans),
ylab=list(School(State)(students), fontfamily=HersheySans)
)

[R] getting p values

2010-01-12 Thread Rosario Garcia Gil
Dear colleges

I need to get the p values for a table with 15000 entries of t values. Does any 
of you know how to do it? I can, of course, get one by one but that is not 
sensible.

Thanks
Rosario

[R] barplot: border color when stacked

2010-01-12 Thread RINNER Heinrich
Dear R-users,

I am using R version 2.10.1 under windows.

In a barplot, I want to mark one of the bars with a special border color.
For example:
barplot(c(3, 7, 11), border = c(NA, red, NA))

But how to do this when the bars are stacked?
for example:
barplot(matrix(1:6, ncol=3)) # border of second bar (i.e. the one with total 
height = 7) should be red again, I try:
barplot(matrix(1:6, ncol=3), border = c(NA, red, NA))

Obviously, this doesn't give me what I want.
Your advice would be appreciated;
kind regards
Heinrich.

Re: [R] apply a function down each column

2010-01-12 Thread Peter Ehlers

Laetitia,

I was just responding to your comment that R complains
about a syntax error. But I realize now that 2x would
probably cause an unexpected symbol error.

Here's what I get when I run your loop; what do you get?

 for (x in 1:(nrow(dat)-1)) {
+  a - as.character(dat[(2x-1),1])
Error: unexpected symbol in:
for (x in 1:(nrow(dat)-1)) {
 a - as.character(dat[(2x
  b - as.character(dat[(2x),1])
Error: unexpected symbol in  b - as.character(dat[(2x
  lettermatch(a,b)
Error in strsplit(a, ) : object 'a' not found
 }
Error: unexpected '}' in }


and here's what I get when I fix the obvious syntax
error:

 for (x in 1:(nrow(dat)-1)) {
+  a - as.character(dat[(2*x-1),1])
+  b - as.character(dat[(2*x),1])
+  lettermatch(a,b)
+ }
Error in fix.by(by.x, x) : 'by' must specify valid column(s)


That leaves two problems:
1) you're looking at the wrong column in dat[,1]; that
   should be dat[,2], etc.
2) that error message indicates that your index variable (x)
   gets to invalid values.

Try this:

for (x in 1:(nrow(dat)/2)) {
 a - dat[(2*x-1),2]  # odd rows
 b - dat[(2*x),2]# even rows
 print(lettermatch(a,b))
}

You don't need the as.character() if you have character data.
Always do a str(dat) before you do any analysis.

Dear Steve,
my solution looks like it would work, but it does not.
I attached a text file with an extract of my data. Maybe you can try it
yourself. I want to compare C1 with M1, C2 with M2, C3 with M3,,, for
each column.
I do not really know what the problem is. R complains about a syntax error.
The function I am applying counts the common strings between the two.
Greg Hirson helped me to write it.

lettermatch - function(a, b) {
   tb - merge(as.data.frame(table(strsplit(a, ))),
as.data.frame(table(strsplit(b, ))), by=Var1)
   sum(apply(tb[-1], 1, min))
}

For example for the second column I tried:

for (x in 1:(nrow(dat)-1)) {
a - as.character(dat[(2x-1),1])


Shouldn't that be 2*x-1??

  -Peter Ehlers


b - as.character(dat[(2x),1])
 lettermatch(a,b)
}

or

 a - as.character(dat[seq(1, nrow(dat), by=2),2])
 b - as.character(dat[seq(2, nrow(dat), by=2), 2])
 all.results - lettermatch(a,b)

With dat-read.delim(data_lgs.txt,stringsAsFactors=FALSE) I can
leave the as.character away in the formula above.

Hello World,
I have a function that makes pairwise comparisons between two
strings. I would like to apply this function to my data (which
consists of columns with different strings) in the way that it
compares the first with the second entry, and then the third with the
fourth, and then the fifth with the sixth, and so on down each column...
So (2x-1) and (2x) would be the different entries to be compared!

dat= my data:

for the first column: compare dat[(2x-1),1] with dat[(2x),1] and x
would be 1:i, i=length(dat[,1])

I think the best way to do that is a loop:

a - as.character(dat[(2x-1),1])
b - as.character(dat[(2x),1])

for (i in 1:length(dat[,1]) my_function(a, b))

Can somebody help me to apply a function with a loop in the way I
want to a column?

It seems as if you got it already, don't you?

for (x in 1:(nrow(dat)-1)) {
 a - dat[(2x-1),1]
 b - dat[(2x), 1]
 my_function(a,b)
}


Is there a specification of tapply for that?

I don't think so, but depending on what you want to do, the size of
your data, and the amount of RAM you have, it might be faster to
compare everything at once (assuming `my_function` can be
vectorized), for instance:

a - dat[seq(1, nrow(dat), by=2),1]
b - dat[seq(2, nrow(dat), by=2), 1]
all.results - my_function(a,b)

Also, as an aside, I see you keep calling as.character on your data
when you extract it from your data.frame.

[R] optim: abnormal termination in lnsrch (resend)

2010-01-12 Thread Mario Valle

Attached a script that reproduces the problem.
My function is fold.val() and at the end seems the curve contained in 
lnsrch.dat is fitted quite well, but optim generates the error.


Thanks again!

I'm using optim(param, fun, method='L-BFGS-B', lower=lo, upper=up) to 
minimize a certain function.

Often the minimization ends with the message:
ERROR: ABNORMAL_TERMINATION_IN_LNSRCH

What is optim() trying to say?
What have I to change in my function to make the minimization succeed?
Do you think using BBoptim() instead of optim() changes anything?

Thanks for your help!

Re: [R] Functions for QUAIDS and nonlinear SUR?

 I would like to estimate a quadratic almost ideal demand system in R which is

The systemfit package has the function nlsystemfit() for estimating
systems of non-linear equations, e.g. by non-linear SUR. However, in
contrast to the systemfit() function for estimating systems of linear
equations, the function nlsystemfit() is still under development and
has convergence problems rather often. So, I cannot recommend using
nlsystemfit() for an important analysis. :-(

 but it is readily available in STATA (nlsur), see B. Poi (2008): Demand-system
 estimation: Update, Stata Journal 8(4).
 Now I am thinking, what is quicker learning to program STATA which seems
 not really comfortable for programming or implement the method in R which
 might be above my head in terms of econometrics.

You do not have to start from scratch but you could improve the
nlsystemfit() function, e.g. by implementing analytical gradients of
the objective function -- and I could assist you with this. If you are
interested in improving nlsystemfit(), please apply at R-Forge [1] for
getting write access to systemfit's SVN repository.

I need to get the p values for a table with 15000 entries of t values. Does any

Put the t values into a vector, then use pt() in an appropriate way to 
calculate them all at once.  (An appropriate way depends on details 
like whether you want one or two tailed value, degrees of freedom, etc.)

[R] Calculate the percentages of the numbers in every column.

2010-01-12 Thread Kelvin
Dear friends,

I have a table like this, I have A B C D ... levels, the first column
you see is just the index, and there are different numbers in the
table.

  A  B  C  D  ...
10   2   1   0
21   0   2   1
32   3   0   0
40   0   1   0
50   2   3   1
...

I want to calculate the frequencies or the percentages of the numbers
in every column.

How do I get a table like this, the first column is the levels of
numbers, and the numbers inside the table are the percentages. All the
percentages should add up to 1 in every column.

  A B  C D   ...
  0  0.2   0.3   0.1   0.1
  1  0.1   0.1   0.2   0.1

[R] optimization challenge

2010-01-12 Thread Greg Snow
I have a challenge that I want to share with the group.

This is not homework (but I may assign it as such if I teach the appropriate 
class again) and I have found one solution, so don't need anything urgent.  
This is more for fun to see if others can find a better solution than I did.

The challenge:

I want to read a book in a given number of days.  I want to read an integer 
number of chapters each day (there are more chapters than days), no stopping 
part way through a chapter, and at least 1 chapter each day.  The chapters are 
very non uniform in length (some very short, a few very long, many in between) 
so I would like to come up with a reading schedule that minimizes the variance 
of the length of the days readings (read multiple short chapters on the same 
day, long chapters are the only one read that day).  I also want to read 
through the book in order (no skipping ahead to combine short chapters that are 
not naturally next to each other.

My thought was that the optim function with method=SANN would be an 
appropriate approach, but my first couple of tries did not give very good 
results.  I have since come up with an optim with SANN solution that gives what 
I consider good results (but I accept that better is possible).

Below is a data frame with the lengths of the chapters for the book that 
originally sparked the challenge for me (but the general idea should work for 
any book).  Each row represents a chapter (in order) with 3 different measures 
of the length of the chapter.

For this challenge I want to read the book in 128 days (there are 239 chapters).

I will post my solutions in a few days, but I want to wait so that my direction 
does not influence people from trying other approaches (if there is something 
better than optim, that is fine).

Good luck for anyone interested in the challenge,

The data frame:

bom3 - structure(list(Chapter = structure(1:239, .Label = c(1 Nephi 1,

[R] Non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) help

2010-01-12 Thread kellys17

Hi,

 I am currently working on some data and feel that NMDS would return an
excellent result. With my current data set however I have been experiencing
some problems and cannot carry out metaMDS. I have tried with a few smaller
data sets which I created for practice sake and this has worked fine.

 I think it is the set up of my data set that is causing me trouble. I have
18 columns and 18 rows, as needed for the n x n matrix. However, within the
data set I have a lot of zeros, i.e. more than just the zeros where column B
meets row B. Do I need to get rid of these excess zeros in order for metaMDS
to work?

 Any help is much appreciated,

 Seán Kelly.

Re: [R] svm

Hi Steve,

 

Thank you so much for your reply. I really needed to know how SVM works without 
removing the class label while receiving it in the formula parameter. It does 
not if I remove the class label.

  Hi Steve,
 
  Thank you very much for your reply. Your code is more readable and obvious

 No Problem.
 
  Could you please help me in these questions?:
 
  1) “Formula” is an alternative to “y” parameter in SVM. is it correct?
 
 No, that's not correct.
 
 There are two svm functions, one that takes a formula object
 (svm.formula), and one that takes an x matrix, and a y vector
 (svm.default). The svm.formula function is called when the first
 argument in your svm(..) call is a formula object. This function
 simply parses the formula and manipulates your data object into an x
 matrix and y vector, then calls the svm.default function with those
 params ... I usually prefer to just skip the formula and provide the x
 and y objects directly.
 
 Load the e1071 library and look at the source code:
 
 R library(e1071)
 R e1071:::svm.formula
 
 You'll see what I mean.
 
  2) I forgot to remove the “class label” from the dataset besides I gave the
  program the class label in formula parameter but the program works! Could
  you please clarify this point to me?
 
 The author of the e1071 package did you a favor. The predict.svm
 function checks to see if your svm object was built using the formula
 interface .. if so, it looks for you label column in the data you are
 trying to predict on and ignores it.
 
 Look at the function's source code (eg, type e1071:::predict.svm at
 the R prompt), and look for the call to the delete.response function
 ... you can also look at the help in ?delete.response.

  R mydata - as.matrix(read.delim(the_whole_dataset.txt))
  R train.x - mydata[,-1]
  R train.y - mydata[,1]
 
  R mymodel - svm(train.x, train.y, cross=3, type=C-classification)
  ## or
  R mymodel - svm(train.x, train.y, cross=3, type=eps-regression)
 
  As an aside, I also like to be explicit about the type= parameter to
  tell what I want my SVM to do (regression or classification). If it's
  not specified, the SVM picks which one to do based on whether or not
  your y vector is a vector of factors (does classification), or not
  (does regression)
 
   Do I have to the same steps with testingset? i.e. the testing set must
   not
   contain the label too? But contains the same structure as the training
   set?
   Is it correct?
 
  I guess you'll want to report your accuracy/MSE/something on your
  model for your testing set? Just load the data in the same way then
  use `predict` to calculate the metric your after. You'll have to have
  the labels for your data to do that, though, eg:
 
  testdata - as.matrix(read.delim('testdata.txt'))
  test.x - testdata[,-1]
  test.y - testdata[,1]
  preds - predict(mymodel, test.x)
 
  Let's assume you're doing classification, so let's report the accuracy:
 
  acc - sum(preds == test.y) / length(test.y)
 
  Does that help?

Re: [R] how to handle missing values . when importing data in

It may depend on what format the file is in, but if it is a tabular
text file or a CSV file then you can use the na.strings parameter.
Here is an example of a little CSV file with . used for missing:

file temp.csv:
--
A,B,C,D
1.1,1.2,1.3,1.4
2.1,2.2,.,2.4
3.1,.,3.3,3.4
4.1,.,.,4.4

  D - read.csv(temp.csv,na.strings=.)
  D
  # A   B   C   D
  # 1 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4
  # 2 2.1 2.2  NA 2.4
  # 3 3.1  NA 3.3 3.4
  # 4 4.1  NA  NA 4.4

So the . have gone in as NA (the right thing to do in the first
instance with missing data). Now you can replace these by zeros:

  D[is.na(D)] - 0
  D
  # 1 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4
  # 2 2.1 2.2 0.0 2.4
  # 3 3.1 0.0 3.3 3.4
  # 4 4.1 0.0 0.0 4.4

Re: [R] optim: abnormal termination in lnsrch (resend)

2010-01-12 Thread Ravi Varadhan
Mario,

It seems likely that your function is not smooth in the parameters.  This
may create problems for some optimizers that require smoothness.  However, I
was able to get good convergence with `spg' function in my BB package.  

Here is how it works:

 require(BB)
Loading required package: BB
Loading required package: numDeriv

 m - spg(param, fold.err, xx=h$x, yy=h$y, lower=lo, upper=up)

It is also interesting that `spg' converges well from a random, infeasible
starting point.

I'm using optim(param, fun, method='L-BFGS-B', lower=lo, upper=up) to

Often the minimization ends with the message:
ERROR: ABNORMAL_TERMINATION_IN_LNSRCH

What is optim() trying to say?
What have I to change in my function to make the minimization succeed?
Do you think using BBoptim() instead of optim() changes anything?

  Thanks Ted, your solution does make perfect sense.
 
  The only question I still have is that I would like to sample

  following 5 say 1,000 times to get a simulated conditional sample,
  if that makes any sense.
 
  I want to build this into an iterative process to see how the
  first sample affects the resulting samples. Even though all the
  observations have the same probabilty to get sampled, they each
  have a different expected value.
  --
 
 OK, if I now understand you, you are interested in the properties
 of the remaining (90) observations, given that they do not include
 any of the (10) cases sampled in the first round.
 
 In that case, I think you should adopt the sample.int() approach
 I also suggested:
 
   X - (1:100) ## (or any other 100 values)
   n - sample.int(100,10,replace=FALSE) ## returns subset of (1:100)
   x - X[n]
   Y - X[-n]   ## The set remaining after the first 10 were taken
   ## Now you can sample repeatedly from Y until your eyes fall out.
   ## So build up a matrix of (say) 1000 samples from Y:
   M - sample(Y,5,replace=FALSE)
   for(i in (2:1000)){ M - rbind(M,sample(Y,5,replace=FALSE)) }
 
 The repeated samples M of 5 from Y of course imply replacing each
 sample of 5 back in Y, so they are available at each turn. You can
 not, of course, sample 1000*5 from 100 without replacement! (Each
 sample of 5 is obtained without replacement, however).
 
 I hope this is getting close!
 Ted.

[R] post-hoc after ancova

2010-01-12 Thread Mahua Ghara
I have done ancova with categorical and continuous predictor variables.
The categorical predictor variable shows significant effect on the dependent
variable.
I would like to do a post-hoc test to see which groups in the categorical
variable differ.

I have explored Tukey test in multcomp package. My study is similar to the
litter data. In the code it's mentioned that the contrast matrix also has
some trends like otrend, atrend and ltrend.

otrend = c(-1.5, -0.5, 0.5, 1.5),
atrend = doselev - mean(doselev),
ltrend = log(1:4) - mean(log(1:4)))

Here are my questions:

Are this trends absolutely essential for conducting the Tukey test?
If yes, how can I set these trends?


thanks,
mahua

You can also try the additional argument to optim for tracing  the

Use optim(param, fun, method='L-BFGS-B', lower=lo, upper=up

[R] Making routine faster by using apply instead of for-loop

2010-01-12 Thread Etienne Stockhausen

Hey everybody,

I have a small problem with a routine, which prepares some data for
plotting.
I've made a small example:

   c=10
   mat=data.frame(matrix(1:(c*c),c,c))
   row.names(mat)=seq(c,1,length=c)
   names(mat)=c(seq(2,c,length=c/2),seq(c,2,length=c/2))
   v=as.numeric(row.names(mat))
   w=as.numeric(names(mat))
   for(i in 1:c)
   { for(j in 1:c)
   {
   if(v[j]+w[i]=c)(mat[i,j]=NA)
   }}

This produces exactly the data I need to go on, but if I increase the
constant c ,to for instance 500 , it takes a very long time to set the NA's.
I've heard there is a much faster way to set the NA's using the command
apply( ), but I don't know how.
I'm looking forward for any ideas or hints, that might help me.

Best regards

Etienne

Re: [R] how to handle missing values . when importing data in R

2010-01-12 Thread jim holtman
What is the structure of the data that you are reading in?  Are you using
'read.table', 'scan', etc.?  Are all the columns numeric, or do you just
want to change some of them?  If you have used 'na.strings' to cause the
values of the missing data to be set to NA, then you can iterate through the
appropriate columns to change NAs to zero, but this depends on your
structure.  For example if you know the names of the columns, you could do:

for (i in c('col1', 'col3', 'col8')) df[[i]][is.na(df[[i]])] - 0

 The whole thing runs in well under a second on my machine (a several

 th element is the number of numbers whose digits sum to i.  The basic
 idea is recursion on the number of digits; if n_{t,d} is the number of
 d-digit numbers that sum to t, then n_{t,d} = \sum_{i\in(0,9)} n_{t-
 i,d-1}. (Adding the digit i to each of those numbers makes their sum
 t and increases the digits to d).  When digits==1, then 0 isn't a valid
 choice and that also implies the sum of digits can't be 0, which fits
 well with the 1 indexing of arrays.

On unix-alike systems one can do

R CMD Rd2dvi --no-clean package name

You get a message saying

There is probably a similar incantation that works under Windoze.

     Reduce(+, llply(0:9, function(x) {c(rep(0,x),dm1,rep(0,9-x))}))
   }
 }

 nsums - llply(1:8, nsum3)
 nsums[[5]][17]
 # [1] 3675
 nsums[[8]][17]
 # [1] 229713

 The whole thing runs in well under a second on my machine (a several
 years old dual core Windows machine).  In the results of nsum3, the i-
 th element is the number of numbers whose digits sum to i.  The basic
 idea is recursion on the number of digits; if n_{t,d} is the number of
 d-digit numbers that sum to t, then n_{t,d} = \sum_{i\in(0,9)} n_{t-
 i,d-1}. (Adding the digit i to each of those numbers makes their sum
 t and increases the digits to d).  When digits==1, then 0 isn't a valid
 choice and that also implies the sum of digits can't be 0, which fits
 well with the 1 indexing of arrays.

[R] Drop last numeral

2010-01-12 Thread LCOG1

Hello all, 
  Frustrated and i know you can help 

I need to drop the last numeral of each of my values in my data set.  So for
the following i have tried the ?substring but since i have to specify the
length, but because my data are of varying lengths it doenst work so well

Data-c(1131, 1132, 1731 ,1732 ,1821 ,1822, 2221 ,,
2241 ,2242,414342 ,414371 ,414372)
Bldgid-substring(as.character(Data),1,3)

returns:
113 113 173 173 182 182 222 222 224 224 414 414
414

but i want

113, 113, 173 ,173 ,182 ,182, 222 ,222, 224 ,224,41434
,41437 ,41437)

The values thats have more than 4 numerals are whats messing things up. 
Tried ?formatC as well but couldn't get it to coerce things correctly. 
Thanks for the help

Re: [R] Non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) help

 Hi,
 
  I am currently working on some data and feel that NMDS would return an
 excellent result. With my current data set however I have been experiencing
 some problems and cannot carry out metaMDS. I have tried with a few smaller
 data sets which I created for practice sake and this has worked fine.

What were the errors/warnings you received that led you to this
conclusion? Please read the posting guide:

http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html

before replying to the list as from the above, there is almost no way
that we can help you.

 
  I think it is the set up of my data set that is causing me trouble. I have
 18 columns and 18 rows, as needed for the n x n matrix. However, within the
 data set I have a lot of zeros, i.e. more than just the zeros where column B
 meets row B. Do I need to get rid of these excess zeros in order for metaMDS
 to work?

You can provide a dissimilarity matrix *or* a community matrix to
metaMDS. If the latter, it will compute the dissimilarity for you (via
metaMDSdist() ) and you can avail yourself of the argument 'zerodist' to
that function --- see ?metaMDS for the arguments.

From the above, I deduce that the error from metaMDS is along the lines
of:

...zero or negative distance between objects X and Y...

which is because isoMDS can't work with samples that have zero
dissimilarity to one another. Indeed - by definition they should be
placed in the same location so why ordinate them at all, just use one of
the samples.

Is your matrix your own dissimilarity matrix? If so, is there some
reason you can't use the ones provided in vegan or metaMDS?

If there is a good reason, and you want to include all samples, then
you'll need to come up with a means for handling them. metaMDSdist allow
you to add a small value to the zero dissimilarities. The details are in
the code, but effectively all zero distances are replaced by half the
smallest non zero distance. You could do a similar replacement yourself
if you feel this is warranted and/or justified.

minDij - min(Dij[Dij  0) / 2
Dij[Dij = 0] - minDij

Will do this replacement if Dij is your matrix (replace Dij with
whatever the name of your matrix is). Then supply the new matrix to
metaMDS.

For most applications I have needed nMDS for, I would delete the samples
with duplicated species composition rather than add ad hoc amounts to
samples just to get the software to produce a result.

Re: [R] R for windows 64 bit

2010-01-12 Thread Alexander Shenkin
Hi Alessia,

Note that, while your physical limit might be 6 GB, Windows memory
management allows more memory than that to be allocated (aka Virtual
Memory, or at least that's what they called it in XP).  Windows swaps
out memory from RAM to the hard disk and back when necessary (please
excuse the explanation if you already know all this).  For processing
large vectors, this swapping might bring your system to a standstill. 
Regardless, the maximum memory for a windows process is larger than
the physical RAM you have available.

In addition to the substring and regular expression solutions, if you are 
certain that everything will be numeric (and integer as in your examples), then 
you could just convert to numeric, divide by 10, and then drop the decimal 
(floor or as.integer).

Re: [R] Making routine faster by using apply instead of for-loop

 Subject: [R] Making routine faster by using apply instead of for-loop
 
 Hey everybody,
 
 I have a small problem with a routine, which prepares some data for
 plotting.
 I've made a small example:
 
 c=10
 mat=data.frame(matrix(1:(c*c),c,c))
 row.names(mat)=seq(c,1,length=c)
 names(mat)=c(seq(2,c,length=c/2),seq(c,2,length=c/2))
 v=as.numeric(row.names(mat))
 w=as.numeric(names(mat))
 for(i in 1:c)
 { for(j in 1:c)
 {
 if(v[j]+w[i]=c)(mat[i,j]=NA)
 }}
 
 This produces exactly the data I need to go on, but if I increase the
 constant c ,to for instance 500 , it takes a very long time 
 to set the NA's.

The first problem is that random (element-by-element)
access to a data.frame is much slower than the equivalent
access to a matrix.  Rewriting your code a bit to
use a matrix speeds up the c=500 case by a factor of 750.
f0 - function (c = 10)  {
mat = matrix(1:(c * c), c, c)
rownames(mat) = seq(c, 1, length = c)
colnames(mat) = c(seq(2, c, length = c/2), seq(c, 2, length = c/2))
v = as.numeric(rownames(mat))
w = as.numeric(colnames(mat))
for (i in 1:c) {
for (j in 1:c) {
if (v[j] + w[i] = c) {
mat[i, j] = NA
}
}
}
mat
}
Rewriting that to insert the NA's one operation speeds it up by
another factor of 10 (in the c=500 case)
f1 - function (c = 10) {
v - seq(c, 1, length = c)
w - c(seq(2, c, length = c/2), seq(c, 2, length = c/2))
mat - matrix(1:(c * c), nrow = c, ncol = c, dimnames = list(v, 
w))
mat[outer(w, v, `+`) = c] - NA
mat
}

If you really want a matrix, pass the output of these functions
into data.frame (with check.names=FALSE since the column
names are not considered legal on data.frame: the contain
duplicates and look numeric).

By the way, it is generally a bad idea to use apply() on
a data.frame.  It is meant for matrices.

Bill Dunlap
Spotfire, TIBCO Software
wdunlap tibco.com 

 I've heard there is a much faster way to set the NA's using 
 the command
 apply( ), but I don't know how.
 I'm looking forward for any ideas or hints, that might help me.
 
 Best regards
 
 Etienne

2010-01-12 Thread Peter Ehlers

Your code is doing too many needless things.
The following takes about one second on my slow Vista laptop.

n - 500
mat - matrix(1:(n*n), n)
v - n:1
z - 2*1:(n/2)
w - c(z, rev(z))
for(i in seq_len(n)){
  for(j in seq_len(n)){
if(v[j] + w[i] = n)(mat[i,j] - NA)
  }
}
rownames(mat) - v
colnames(mat) - w

str(mat)

You end up with matrix, but if you really want a data.frame
with duplicate names, that's easy to get. Do you actually
want those row/col names or are they just used to identify
the cells that get NA?

Depending on what you really need, the following may be
good enough; takes about 0.1 seconds.

n - 500
mat - matrix(1:(n*n), n)
for(i in 1:(n/2)){mat[i, -(1:(2*i))] - mat[n+1-i, -(1:(2*i))] - NA}

Hey everybody,

I have a small problem with a routine, which prepares some data for

I've made a small example:

   c=10
   mat=data.frame(matrix(1:(c*c),c,c))
   row.names(mat)=seq(c,1,length=c)
   names(mat)=c(seq(2,c,length=c/2),seq(c,2,length=c/2))
   v=as.numeric(row.names(mat))
   w=as.numeric(names(mat))
   for(i in 1:c)
   { for(j in 1:c)
   {
   if(v[j]+w[i]=c)(mat[i,j]=NA)
   }}

This produces exactly the data I need to go on, but if I increase the
constant c ,to for instance 500 , it takes a very long time to set the 
NA's.

I've heard there is a much faster way to set the NA's using the command
apply( ), but I don't know how.
I'm looking forward for any ideas or hints, that might help me.

Best regards

Re: [R] expand.grid game

2010-01-12 Thread Greg Snow
How trivial is probably subjective, I don't think it is much above trivial.  I 
would not have been surprised to see this question on an exam in my 
undergraduate (300 or junior level) probability course (the hard part was 
remembering the details from that class from over 20 years ago).  My favorite 
test question of all time came from that course: You have a deck of poker 
cards with the 3's removed (and jokers), you deal yourself 5 cards at random, 
what is the probability of getting a straight (not including straight flushes)?

This problem is simpler.  Just think of the 8 places in the number as urns, and 
the 17 1's as balls to be put into the urns.  One ball has to go in the first 
urn, so you have 16 left, there are choose(16+8-1,8-1) ways to distribute 16 
undistinguishable balls among 8 distinguishable urns. But that includes some 
solutions with more than 9 balls in an urn which violates the digits 
restriction, so subtract off the illegal counts.  If we place 10 balls in the 
first urn, then we have 7 remaining balls to distribute between the 8 urns or 
choose( 7+8-1, 7), If we place 1 ball in the first urn and 10 balls in one of 
the 7 other urns (7*), then there are choose( 6+8-1, 7 ) ways to distribute the 
remaining 6 balls in the 8 urns.  Not too complicated once you remember (or 
look up) the formula for urns and balls.

 something
  that is linear in time (for the number of digits) and gives the

    }
  }
 
  nsums - llply(1:8, nsum3)
  nsums[[5]][17]
  # [1] 3675
  nsums[[8]][17]
  # [1] 229713
 
  The whole thing runs in well under a second on my machine (a several
  years old dual core Windows machine).  In the results of nsum3, the
 i-
  th element is the number of numbers whose digits sum to i.  The
 basic
  idea is recursion on the number of digits; if n_{t,d} is the number
 of
  d-digit numbers that sum to t, then n_{t,d} = \sum_{i\in(0,9)}
 n_{t-
  i,d-1}. (Adding the digit i to each of those numbers makes their
 sum
  t and increases the digits to d).  When digits==1, then 0 isn't a
 valid
  choice and that also implies the sum of digits can't be 0, which
 fits
  well with the 1 indexing of arrays.

Re: [R] LD50 and SE in GLMM (lmer)

2010-01-12 Thread Linda Bürgi

Thank you very much for the code Bill! I only had to change very few things to 
make it work for probit and lmer (instead of glmmPQL) and it works perfectly! 

Here's my code (I had some trouble with the output style glm.dose, so I just 
have it come out as an ugly list now, which isn't a problem since I only have 
to put it into a table).


model4 - lmer (y~time + (1|blc/instar),REML=FALSE, 
family=binomial(link=probit))
summary(model4)

 

dose.p.glmm - function(model4, cf = 1:2, p = 0.5) {
eta - probit(p)
b - fixef(model4)[cf]
k - (eta - b[1])/b[2]
names(k) - paste(p = , format(p), :, sep = )
pd - -cbind(1, k)/b[2]
SE - sqrt(((pd %*% vcov(model4)[cf,cf]) * pd) %*% c(1, 1))
list(k, SE)
}
dose.p.glmm (model4, cf=1:2, p=0.5)

 

With this, I don't even need the pnorm- probit transformation.

 

Thank you very much!

 CC: r-help@r-project.org
 
 Sorry for the delay in response. I had a somewhat similar need
 recently with the difference that I used a logit link for a bioassay.
 The design had different dose-response replicates that I modeled as
 blocks. It looks like you are concentrating on estimation of fixed
 effects and thus the population / marginal LD50 estimate. If so, then
 there is a function called dose.p in the MASS package, courtesy of
 Venables and Ripley, which is used in the context of an example on 190
 - 194 of the 4th edition of their book (2002), 4th ediiion, that I
 think would be very helpful to study. The example code can also be
 found in the ch07.R file in the scripts sub-directory/folder of the
 MASS package directory/folder. The example illustrates the use of GLM
 with a logit link. To adapt it for use with a GLMM, I came up with the
 following, which is nearly identical to how dose.p is defined in R
 2.10.0
 
 dose.p.glmm - function(obj, cf = 1:2, p = 0.5) {
 eta - obj$family$linkfun(p)
 b - fixef(obj)[cf]
 x.p - (eta - b[1L])/b[2L]
 names(x.p) - paste(p = , format(p), :, sep = )
 pd - -cbind(1, x.p)/b[2L]
 SE - sqrt(((pd %*% vcov(obj)[cf, cf]) * pd) %*% c(1, 1))
 res - structure(x.p, SE = SE, p = p)
 class(res) - glm.dose
 res
 }
 
 Essentially only the fixef() call in the 2nd line of the body was
 needed to replace the coef() call. Please also note that I used this
 for a glmmPQL() call from the MASS package, not lmer().
 
 
  And one more question: is it correct to use pnorm (where John Maindonald 
  used exp(hat)/(1+exp(hat)))?
 
 
 Unfortunately I don't know offhand, and do not have a reference handy
 to check to be sure, so perhaps you can find a local statistician to
 help? I myself always have a preference to use the logit / logistic
 over probit, as they are both symmetric around 0.5 and are often
 reported to provide similar results.
 
 Hope that helps,
 Bill

 2010/1/7 Linda Bürgi patili_bue...@hotmail.com:
 
  Hi All!
 
 
 
  I am desperately needing some help figuring out how to calculate LD50 with 
  a GLMM (probit link) or, more importantly, the standard error of the LD50.
 
 
 
  I conducted a cold temperature experiment and am trying to assess after how 
  long 50% of the insects had died (I had 3 different instars (non 
  significant fixed effect) and several different blocks (I did 4 replicates 
  at a time)= random effect).
 
 
 
  Since there is no predict function for lmer, I used the following to get 
  predicted values (thanks to a post by John Maindonald (I'll attach his post 
  below)):
 
 
 
 
  model4 - lmer (y~time + (1|blc/instar),family=binomial(link=probit))
  summary(model4)
 
 
 
   b - fixef(model4)
   X - (model.matrix(terms(model4),zerotest))
   hat - X%*%b
   pxal - pnorm(hat)# probit link, for logit it would be: pval - 
  exp(hat)/(1+exp(hat))
   pval
 
 
  Once I get the pval, I see where the 0.5 predicted value lies and I adjust 
  the x's in zerotest to be more detailed in that range, eg. x: 1-420hours, I 
  see that 0.5 is in the 320hours area, so I adjust x to be 320.1, 320.2, 
  320.3, etc. to get the precise 0.500. Very clumsy but I guess it's correct?
 
 
 
  Now my biggest problem: how do I get the SE?
 
 
 
  John Maindonald goes on to do this:
 
  U - chol(as.matrix(summary(model4)@vcov))
 
  se - sqrt(apply(X%*%t(U), 1, function(x)sum(x^2)))
 
  list(hat=hat, se=se, x=X[,xcol])
 
 
 
  Unfortunately, I could not figure out what the chol(as.matrix...) part is 
  about (chol does what?) and therefore I have no idea, how to use this code 
  to get my LD50 SE (I would need the SE to be expressed in terms of x).
 
  Could anybody help me with this?
 
 
 
  And one more question: is it correct to use pnorm (where John Maindonald 
  used exp(hat)/(1+exp(hat)))?
 
 
 
  Thanks so much in advance!

[R] [Solved][Code Snippets] Dropping Empty Regressors

2010-01-12 Thread Idgarad
To make a long story short I was doing some in-sample testing in which some
dynamically created regressors would end up either all true or all false
based on the validation portion. In my case a new mainframe configuration
(this is a crappy way to handle a level shift but I do what I can.) So here
is the code snippet that finally let me pre-check my regressors and drop any
of them that were all true or all false.

First the automagic STL outlier grabber that caused part of the problem:


# tsSource being my time Series source.
# sh2 is a table of all my regessors that have been previously pulled in
# this has historic and future values in it also, it gets sliced later.
# the EOM is the regessor holding weeks that contain an 'End of Month'
#
# This appends the found IOs to the regressor table. Stepwise tends to
# remove them later on. I needed a programtic way of removing useless
# regressors for model verification since I would not know their names
# if any are found

tsSourceDiag - stl(tsSource,s.window=per, robust=TRUE)
#
tsSourceIO - which(tsSourceDiag $ weights   1e-8)
#
# This is how to append run-time regessors
for(z in tsSourceIO) {
tmpname -paste(PreIO,z,sep=)
#COPY EOM AS A TEMPLATE
sh2[[tmpname]] - sh2[[EOM]]
#SET IT ALL TO 0
sh2[[tmpname]][]-FALSE
#SET The Proper Indice to TRUE
sh2[[tmpname]][z]- TRUE
}


So to get rid of them (those empty useless regressors) I cooked up this:

###
#Prune Empty Regressors (All false or all true)
# the newmcReg you see is a copy of the sh2 from earlier
# newmcReg = New Model Current Regressors
# sh2 later became cReg.
#
# Yes it makes my eyes bleed. in short we count all the trues
# and all the false and if they happen to be the same number
# as the length we know they are all true or false.
#
# the trick I finally found was that you could in fact -c()
# a list (e.g. ask for everything but the following) but you
# can't apparently do that inline so we just make a list of
# regressors that get shown the door then after hunting
# them down we give em the boot. This mess is soley
# so my in-sample Arima doesn't choke on xreg=newmcReg
# in which one of the newmcReg happen to be all true or false.
#
# God I wish I had taken more then a Trig course. Where was I?
#
# Yes that phantom 'i' you see is that this is all in a big loop
# for 6 possible models
# lm1 = all regressors w/ intercept
# lm2 = lm1 stepwise removal
# lm3 = all regressors wo/ intercept
# lm4 = lm3 stepwise removal
# lm5 = Hand Tuned
# lm6 = lm5 stepwise removal
###
toPurge=c()
for(k in names(newmcReg[[i]])) {
 print (paste(check to see if,k,is a useless regressors for model,i))
 if(sum(newmcReg[[i]][k][,1])==length(newmcReg[[i]][k][,1])) {
  print(paste(All of,k,are TRUE))
  getLost=which(names(newmcReg[[i]])==k)
  toPurge=c(toPurge,getLost)
  print(paste(k, has been added to the purge list for model, i,!))
 }
 if(sum(newmcReg[[i]][k][,1]==FALSE)==length(newmcReg[[i]][k][,1])) {
  print(paste(All of,k,are FALSE))
  getLost=which(names(newmcReg[[i]])==k)
  toPurge=c(toPurge,getLost)
  print(paste(k, has been added to the purge list for model, i,!))
 }
}
toPurge
# Do this only if there are any or R will beat you senseless and
# steal all your MMs!
if(length(toPurge)!=0) {
names(newmcReg[[i]])
names(newmcReg[[i]][-c(toPurge)])
newmcReg[[i]] - newmcReg[[i]][-c(toPurge)]

[R] Strange behavior when trying to piggyback off of fitdistr

2010-01-12 Thread Adler, Avraham
Hello.

I am not certain even how to search the archives for this particular question, 
so if there is an obvious answer, please smack me with a large halibut and send 
me to the URLs.

I have been experimenting with fitting curves by using both maximum likelihood 
and maximum spacing estimation techniques. Originally, I have been writing 
distribution-specific functions in 'R' which work rather well. As the procedure 
is identical for all distributions, other than the actual distribution function 
itself, I thought I would try to build a single function that accepted the 
distribution as an input and returned the results. Never having played with 
calls, formals, and arguments before, I figured I would rip off, cough, cough, 
be inspired by the venerable fitdistr in MASS, which accepts distribution 
inputs.

After a few hours, I actually got it working decently (although unfinished). 
However, I am finding something very weird. At its core, the technique requires 
the difference between the value of the cumulative distribution function at 
neighboring evaluations. I implement this by running p($DIST) on the vector of 
sorted losses (call it SP), creating two new vectors, one c(0, SP) and one 
c(SP, 1), and then taking the latter minus the former. If there happen to be 
two instances of the same value, unless it is known rounding error, one 
substitutes the density at that point for the difference in the cumulative 
distribution (which would be 0, as the CDF of two identical values is the 
same). So, I run d($DIST), add a 0 in front to make it the same length, and 
return a new vector equal to pmax.int(DIFFERECEN, DENSITY), with the idea that 
the density is always 0 and always less than the difference in cumulative 
distributions, so it will only be max in the case of DIFFERENCE being trul!
 y 0. I then take negative the sum of the log of the differences and that is 
the function passed to optim.

What is weird is when I leave out the density correction (which is safe 
99.% of the time as the chances of two identical losses is almost 0 
(assuming no clustering/capping) ), I get a very similar result to my 
distribution-customized function which calls the proper plnorm or pgenpareto 
directly. When I add in the correction, the value is orders of magnitude 
higher, which not only affects the fit (slightly) but also affects the goodness 
of fit statistics. I have no idea why this happens, although in theory, if the 
function is pulling too many density values, it would return a higher value as 
the densities are much closer to 0 so the neg-log is a larger number.

In the code pasted below, if spacing returns -sum(log(SP2), it works fine. If 
it returns -(sum(log(SP3)), it gives strange results.

I do not have the S programming language book (perhaps I should invest in it) 
and the online help wasn't that helpful to me, so I would very much appreciate 
any responses y'all may have.

Thank you very much,

from over 20 years ago).  My favorite test question of all time  
came from that course: You have a deck of poker cards with the 3's  
removed (and jokers), you deal yourself 5 cards at random, what is  
the probability of getting a straight (not including straight  
flushes)?


This problem is simpler.  Just think of the 8 places in the number  
as urns, and the 17 1's as balls to be put into the urns.  One ball  
has to go in the first urn, so you have 16 left, there are choose(16 
+8-1,8-1) ways to distribute 16 undistinguishable balls among 8  
distinguishable urns. But that includes some solutions with more  
than 9 balls in an urn which violates the digits restriction, so  
subtract off the illegal counts.  If we place 10 balls in the first  
urn, then we have 7 remaining balls to distribute between the 8  
urns or choose( 7+8-1, 7), If we place 1 ball in the first urn and  
10 balls in one of the 7 other urns (7*), then there are choose( 6 
+8-1, 7 ) ways to distribute the remaining 6 balls in the 8 urns.   
Not too complicated once you remember (or look up) the formula for  
urns and balls.

I realize I'm late coming to this, but I was reading it in my post-
vacation catch-up and it sounded interesting so I thought I'd give

it a

shot.

After coding a couple of solutions that were exponential in time

(for

the number of digits), I rearranged things and came up with

something

that is linear in time (for the number of digits) and gives the

count

of numbers for all sums at once:

library(plyr)
nsum3 - function(digits) {
  digits - as.integer(digits)[[1L]]
  if (digits==1) {
rep(1,9)
  } else {
dm1 - nsum3(digits-1)
Reduce(+, llply(0:9, function(x) {c(rep(0,x),dm1,rep(0,9-

x))}))

  }
}

nsums - llply(1:8, nsum3)
nsums[[5]][17]
# [1] 3675
nsums[[8]][17]
# [1] 229713

The whole thing runs in well under a second on my machine (a  
several

years old dual core Windows machine).  In the results of nsum3, the

i-

th element is the number of numbers whose digits sum to i.  The

basic

idea is recursion on the number of digits; if n_{t,d} is the number

of

d-digit numbers that sum to t, then n_{t,d} = \sum_{i\in(0,9)}

n_{t-

i,d-1}. (Adding the digit i to each of those numbers makes their

sum

t and increases the digits to d).  When digits==1, then 0 isn't a

valid

choice and that also implies the sum of digits can't be 0, which

fits

well with the 1 indexing of arrays.

[R] parsing protocol of states

2010-01-12 Thread Andreas Wittmann

Dear R-users,

actually i try to parse some state protocols for my work. i an easy 
stetting the code below works fine, if states are reached only once. in 
harder settings it could be possible that one state gets visited more 
times. in this case for me its interesting to see how much waiting time 
lies between to states on the whole.


by the way i didn't use R as a parsing tool so far, so any advice for 
doing this more effectivly are quite welcome.

Hi Alessia,

Note that, while your physical limit might be 6 GB, Windows memory
management allows more memory than that to be allocated (aka Virtual
Memory, or at least that's what they called it in XP).  Windows swaps
out memory from RAM to the hard disk and back when necessary (please
excuse the explanation if you already know all this).  For processing
large vectors, this swapping might bring your system to a standstill.
Regardless, the maximum memory for a windows process is larger than
the physical RAM you have available.

In this case 6Gb was the default (as physical maximum in the particular 
machine) and there was bug in the *experimental* version of R that did 
not allow to increase memory size from within R using memory.limit() 
which already has been fixed thanks to Brian Ripley.

misleading saying a new version.

Therefore, I will wait for when they will be available officially,
since it is just a few days.


Or just use today my private repository I indicated in the other mail.

However, I tried also to go to the cran pages and download them and
insert into the library. For quantreg it worked, for sparseM it did
not probably because it's a win32 version, as you said.

Dear all,

I just download and set this new version of R. I am now trying to
download the packages I need which are sperseM and quantreg. I
downloaded and insert into the library file the quantreg pacjkage and
it seems to work. However, when I try to do the same with sparseM I
get the following error message:

Loading required package: SparseM
Error in inDL(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now), ...) :
  unable to load shared library
'C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-211~1.0DE/library/SparseM/libs/SparseM.dll':
  LoadLibrary failure:  %1 non è un'applicazione di Win32 valida.


Any help for it?


Please do refer to the posting referred to in that thread (and Henrique,
please do not post just the URL without the explanations).

https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2010-January/056301.html

You cannot mix 32-bit Windows binary packages with this experimental port
(it is not a 'new version'): you need to install from the package
sources.
  If that is too difficult for you, please do not try to use unsupported
experimental builds (and Uwe Ligges may have some binary packages
available
for test in a few days).




Thanks a lot

Dear all,

do you know if there is any particular version of R to implement with
windows 64 bit, in such a way to increase the amount of memory it can
use?

How should I increase the memory, and more importantly to set a higher
max vector size? It still stops me saying Could not allocate vector
of size 145

thanks to all
alessia

[R] Problems connecting with MySQL using odbcDriverConnect (RODBC package) on Linux

2010-01-12 Thread Marcus, Jeffrey
I am sure I'm doing something wrong here but not sure what. 

Our system administrator recently installed UnixODBC and the MyODBC
driver on a Linux box running Linux version 2.6 x86_64. 

I have an .odbc.ini file in my home directory with following lines:

[mydb]
Description = MySQL server on my-server
Driver=/usr/lib64/libmyodbc3.so
SERVER=my-server

I can successfully do the following:

library(RODBC)
channel - odbcConnect(mydb)
sqlQuery(channel, show databases)

And in general, I have no problems using odbcConnect to connect to the
mydb DSN.

However, for various reasons I want to make a DSN-less connection
using odbcDriverConnect. However, everything I've tried generated a
data source not found message (see below for details)

 After reading through various documents, I tried doing following. 

(1) Put an odbcinst.ini file in my home directory with following lines 
[MySQL]
Description = ODBC for MySQL
Driver=/usr/lib64/libmyodbc3.so
Setup   = /usr/lib/libodbcmyS.so
FileUsage   = 1

(2) Install it with odbcinst -i -f. This seems to work as when I type
odbcinst -j I get

DRIVERS: /home/jmarcus/odbcinst.ini
SYSTEM DATA SOURCES: /home/jmarcus/odbc.ini
USER DATA SOURCES..: /home/jmarcus/.odbc.ini


(2) Set the environment variable to point to this file:

bash-3.2$  ODBCSYSINI=/home/jmarcus
bash-3.2$ export ODBCSYSINI

(3) Start R

Note that R has inherited environment variable
 Sys.getenv(ODBCSYSINI)

 ODBCSYSINI
/home/jmarcus

(4) Try to connect to the MySQL server

  conn -
odbcDriverConnect(connection=Driver={MySQL};Server=my-server;Database=m
y_database;Uid=my_username;Pwd=my_password)

This generates following:

Warning messages:
1: In odbcDriverConnect(connection =
Driver={MySQL};Server=my-server;Database=my_database;Uid=my_username;Pw
d=my_password) :
  [RODBC] ERROR: state IM002, code 0, message [unixODBC][Driver
Manager]Data source name not found, and no default driver specified
2: In odbcDriverConnect(connection =
Driver={MySQL};Server=my-server;Database=my_database;Uid=my_username;Pw
d=my_password) :
  ODBC connection failed


Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.
  
 Jeff
