Re: [R] ramdom sampling from a dataset

2010-09-29 Thread Dennis Murphy
Try this:

x - c(2,5,9,4,5,6,7,8)
u - replicate(20, sample(x, replace = TRUE))
t(u)

The first argument of replicate() is the number of times to iterate the
process.
I believe you'll find that it does indeed do random sampling; each row
represents
a nonparametric bootstrap sample of x. There are other ways of doing this;
one is

v - matrix(sample(x, 160, replace = TRUE), ncol = 8, byrow = TRUE)

Re: [R] boxplot

2010-09-29 Thread Joshua Wiley
Dear Felipe,

Assuming you are not interested in the exact formulae that are used to
calculate each of these, from top to bottom it is:

minimum, lower quartile, median, upper quartile, maximum

If there are dots, these usually indicate outliers.

Please read ?boxplot  for more details on what R will do when.  If you
are interested in the specifics of the computations, read
?boxplot.stats

Hope that helps,

Josh

 Gotcha. Seems to only affect ylab though. Do this:

plot(1,xlab=t,ylab=t,main=t)

 then if I shrink my graphics window I can make the ylab disappear but
 not the xlab or title.

  Seems to affect any rotated expressions:

  plot(1)
 text(1,1,t,srt=90)
 text(1,1,t,srt=0)
 text(1,1,t,srt=45)


  Now shrink window and watch the rotated expressions vanish! They
 disappear when they start (or finish) out of the entire graphics
 device, not the plot region...

  I cant find anything relating to clipping in the help, and I am on
 Linux, so see if there's any news about it, try it with R-patched or
 R-devel and then report a bug after having read all the other stuff
 about R bug reporting!

I don't claim to understand it, but there is something quite
 fundamental about the properties of the X11() graphics device in R
 that makes labels that would otherwise overlap, disappear -- if
 you do 'extreme resizing' with the graphics above, you can see that
 otherwise-overlapping x- and y-axis tick labels disappear as the
 graph gets scrunched.  This is (apparently) true of X11 graphics
 on MacOS as well -- Quartz window has a different behavior.
 Trying with pdf() as well -- for height=2, width=2, only 1 y-axis
 and 2 x-axis tick labels survive, *but* the x and y labels and the
 title are all still present (but clipped, of course).
[Hmmm. Take my reports above with a grain of salt, I wasn't
 always using expression()s.]

   So I would guess that if you reported this as a bug you would
 be told that it was a poorly documented property of R's X11
 graphics model, rather than a bug ...

   I have no idea where to start looking for more information
 about what defines this behavior -- if I were desperate to know
 I would probably try asking Paul Murrell ...

   I would be very interested to see this discussed on r-devel,
 if anyone bit ...

[R] Validation / Training - test data

2010-09-29 Thread Sam
Dear List,

I have developed two models i want to use to predict a response, one with a 
binary response and one with a ordinal response.

My original plan was to divide the data into test (300 entries) and training 
(1000 entries) and check the power of the model by looking at the % correct 
predictions. However i have been told my a colleague  that 1300 entries is far 
too little to partition the data set and i should use the whole data set, and 
determine the power of the model with scores such as c-value and Brier score 
and use bootstrapping.

I understand how to bootstrap in R however i have never used it on predicted 
values.

My questions are -

1. Using the boot() command how do i use this to test the power of my 
predictive model?
2. Is it possible to bootstrap brier score or is this not necessary?
3. ( This is a separate point i am struggling with, i thought i would include 
it here instead of posting again!) I have selected the most likely model with 
AIC criteria from a set of candidate GLMM models, however as GLMM has no 
predict function i have used the best model and excluded the random effects and 
ran it as a glm and used the predict function from here - is this OK?

Thanks

Sam

Perhaps rather an unimplemented one. The root cause is that both functions use 
reformulate() on the term.labels attribute, and there is no way to specify 
that you want to reformulate into a no-intercept formula. On the other hand, 
the modeling code will happily proceed with a no-intercept model even if there 
is no -1 in formula part of a terms object, e.g. 

 x - terms(y~a+b)
 attr(x,intercept) - 0
 lm(x)

Call:
lm(formula = x)

Coefficients:
 a   b  
0.2263  0.4178  

 formula(x)
y ~ a + b

so I suppose that there is no really good excuse not to carry the intercept 
attribute over. As usual, with code as old as this, there is always the risk 
that something actually relies on current behavior.

Thanks Peter. I expected something like that.

As I see it, the intercept (or more often, removal of the intercept)
is treated differently from other terms, and information on the presence
of an intercept is stored in an attribute of the terms object rather
than the formula. This attribute is not copied when using drop.terms
or [.terms. I believe it should be, but as you say Peter, some may rely
on the way the functions behave now.

So basically, you should use code like

x - terms(y~a+b-1)
z - x[2]
attr(z, intercept) -  attr(x, intercept)

to make sure that the intercept information is preserved.

[R] 3D Graphics

Dear All,

I have made a scatter plot and placed a plane within it using scatterplot3d.
However, I have been asked for the data points to be a surface plot or have
the plane more closely resemble the data rather than show trends.

I have since tried to use the rgl package. Why doesn't this package use the
window which already contains graphics?

I have one axis with decreasing values and two others with increasing
values, hence I get an error message when I've tried using pers3d.

Are there anyother ways in which I can create a surface plot?

Thank you,

2010-09-29 Thread deadlyspider

Ok, I don't think I was specific enough.

The data originally came in this form


1  a  12
2  b  4
3  a  3
4  c  54
5  a  12
6  b  11
7  c  9
8  c  2
.  .  .
.  .  .
.  .  .



Where I sorted by the second column (NB the second column is the categories
and they have long names). I would then like separate boxplots for each
category.

The loop idea would be nice but unfortunately I do not fully understand the
answer given.

Thanks.

Re: [R] 95% confidence intercal with glm

2010-09-29 Thread Sam
I am looking to do the same but am a bit confused 

 and apply the inverse link function for your model.

i understand up to this point and i understand what this means, however i am 
unsure why it needs to be done and how you do it - i.e i use family=binomial 
is this wrong if i use this method to calculate 95% CI?

Thanks

 Hi
 
 I had to use a glm instead of my basic lm on some data due to unconstant

 now, when I plot the model over the data, how can I easily get the 95%
 confidence interval that sormally coming from:
 
 yv - predict(modelVar,list(aveLength=xv),int=c)
 matlines(xv,yv,lty=c(1,2,2))
 
 There is no interval argument to pass to the predict function when using a
 glm, so I was wondering if I had to use an other function
 

 You need to use predict with se=TRUE; construct the confidence
intervals by computing predicted values +- 1.96 times the standard
error returned; and apply the inverse link function for your model.

 If heteroscedasticity is your main problem, and not a specific
(known) non-normal distribution, you might consider using the gls
function from the nlme package with an appropriate 'weights' argument.

Re: [R] Regular expressions: offsets of groups

2010-09-29 Thread Titus von der Malsburg
Bill, Michael,

good to see I'm not the only one who sees potential for improvements
in the regexpr domain.  Adding a subpattern argument is certainly a
step in the right direction and would make my life much easier.
However, in my application I need to know not only the position of one
group but also the position of the overall match in the original
string.  The ideal solution would provide positions and match lengths
for the whole pattern and for all groups if desired.  Only this would
solve all related issues.  One possibility is to have a subpattern
argument that accepts a vector of numbers (0 refers to the whole
pattern):

   gregexpr(a+(b+), abcdaabbc, subpattern=c(0,1))
 [[1]]:
 [[1]][[1]]:
 [1] 1 5
 attr(, match.length):
 [1] 2 4
 [[1]][[2]]:
 [1] 2 7
 attr(, match.length):
 [1] 1 2

A weakness of this solution is that the structure of the return values
changes if length(subpattern)1.  An alternative is to have a separate
function, say ggregepxr for group gregexpr, that returns a list of
lists as in the above example.  This function would always return
positions and match lengths of the whole pattern (group 0) and all
groups.  The original gregexpr could still have the subpattern
argument but it would only accept single numbers.  This way the return
format of gregexpr remains the same.

Best,

  Titus

[R] svg plot and dashed lines

  Dear users,

When I boxplot(), the lines of the whiskers are dashed. However, when I

How can I have the dashed lines in the svg file?
I don't have this problem with a ps file, but I cannot edit such file as

Basically have individual questions ( x) to which an organization can

plot (like the matrix corrolation plots I have seen on R graph site) 
showing for eac question (x) a circle or shape of varying size and/or

The usual graphics drivers don't support OpenGL, which rgl uses.  It

an rgl canvas, but I don't know anyone who has done that.



I have one axis with decreasing values and two others with increasing

You can always plot against negative x without labels, and add the

Are there anyother ways in which I can create a surface plot?

Re: [R] Problems extracting p-value from summary(aov(...))

2010-09-29 Thread Dennis Murphy
Hi:

Try this:

test.summary[[1]][, 5]

It should return a vector of p-values, the last being NA. In your case,
since there is only one non-NA p-value, it is enough to do

test.summary[[1]][, 5][1]

You mean that wasn't obvious?   :)

Explanation:
summary(aovobj) actually returns a list, but that's not obvious from looking
at the print method. If you ask for its names, as in names(summary(aovobj)),
it returns NULL, further adding to the confusion. However, since it is a
list,
summary(aovobj)[[1]]  returns the ANOVA table, and ANOVA tables in R's
modeling functions are typically matrices. The model terms are the rownames
of the matrix (although that isn't obvious at first, either). That being the
case, the p-values are in column 5 (whose column name is 'Pr(F)' ), so we
can extract that column with
summary(aovobj)[[1]][, 5]   orsummary(aovobj)[[1]][, 'Pr(F)']
To get the first element of that p-value vector, use
summary(aovobj)[[1]][, 5][1]

HTH,
Dennis

Hi:

Are you thinking of a levelplot/heatmap? Some places to look:

?levelplot in the lattice package
?geom_tile in the ggplot2 package
?heatmap2 in the gplots package

You can find many more heatmap functions in R; try

library(sos)# install first if you don't have it - *very* handy
for quick searches
findFn('heatmap')

There are more than a few packages with heatmap functions...

Re: [R] Validation / Training - test data

2010-09-29 Thread Frank Harrell

Split sample validation is highly unstable with your sample size.

The rms package can help with bootstrapping or cross-validation, assuming
you have all modeling steps repreated for each resample.

 i understand up to this point and i understand what this means,
 however i am unsure why it needs to be done and how you do it - i.e
 i use family=binomial is this wrong if i use this method to
 calculate 95% CI?

 There is no interval argument to pass to the predict function

 function


 You need to use predict with se=TRUE; construct the confidence
 intervals by computing predicted values +- 1.96 times the standard
 error returned; and apply the inverse link function for your
 model.

 If heteroscedasticity is your main problem, and not a specific
 (known) non-normal distribution, you might consider using the gls
 function from the nlme package with an appropriate 'weights'
 argument.

Re: [R] matrix plot

2010-09-29 Thread Thomas Stewart
HH-

I'm not familiar with the plots you mention, but the following is a quick
attempt to create the plot you describe.

data-data.frame(
  org=1:10,
  q1=sample(1:10,replace=T),
  q2=sample(1:10,replace=T),
  q3=sample(1:10,replace=T))

#  This generates a random data set like the one you describe.  It looks
like this:

#   org q1 q2 q3
#11  9  1  4
#22  1  2  1
#33  1  3  7
#44 10  9  6
# ...

n-ncol(data)-1 # NUMBER OF ORGANIZATIONS

new.mat-apply(data[,-1],2,function(x){xtabs(~factor(x,levels=1:10))})

plot(rep(1:n,each=10),rep(1:10,n),
  pch=16,
  cex=c(new.mat),
  xaxt=n,
  xlab=Question,
  ylab=Score)
axis(1,at=1:n)

Instead of cex=c(new.mat), you can supply a function of new.mat, say
cex=f(new.mat) to specify the size of the dots.

Hope that helps.

To get a index.corrected Brier score, 

However i am also wanting to bootstrap the predicted probabilities  output from 
 predict(model1, type = response) to get a idea of confidence, or am i best 
just using se.fit = TRUE and then calculating the 95%CI? Does what i want to do

[R] short captions for xtable?

Hi,

For my dissertation, I've made copious use of xtable. I've just gotten
stumped however. I'm a fan of extended captions explaining the table, but
now I have to assemble a a list of tables and the captions are unwieldy. I
presume xtable calls LaTeX's \caption function. Is there a way to include
short captions (a la \caption[short caption]{long caption}?

Thanks in advance for you help.

Re: [R] Splitting data in to multiple boxplots

2010-09-29 Thread Joshua Wiley
Hi,

The form of the data is not terribly important neither is whether it
was sorted as boxplots are not order dependent are category a is a
sorted or not.  See below for individual plots with your new data.


# read in data
dat - read.table(textConnection(
1  a  12
2  b  4
3  a  3
4  c  54
5  a  12
6  b  11
7  c  9
8  c  2
), header = FALSE)
closeAllConnections()

# add names since you said they lack them
names(dat) - c(id, cat, value)

# this makes it so it will ask for input before
# changing plots
par(ask = TRUE)

# run the function boxplot for different values by() each level in dat$cat.
# if par(ask = TRUE) was set, it should make you click or hit
# return before changing each plot
by(dat$value, dat$cat, boxplot)



HTH,

Josh

[R] Fitting a half-ellipse curve

2010-09-29 Thread Niklaus Hurlimann
Dear mailing list,

I have following array:

   X2 Y2
[1,] 422.7900  6.0
[2,] 469.8007  10.5
[3,] 483.9428  11.0
[4,] 532.4917  25.5
[5,] 596.1942  33.5
[6,] 630.8496  40.5
[7,] 733.2996  45.0
[8,] 946.4779  32.0
[9,] 996.8068  35.5
[10,] 1074.3310  23.0

I do afterwards the following:

plot.new()

plot.window(xlim=c(min(X1)-50,max(X1)+50),
ylim=c(min(Y1)-25,max(Y1)+25))

axis(2, cex.axis=1.2)
axis(1, cex.axis=1.2)

points(X2, Y2, type=p, pch=0, cex=1.2, col=black)

title(main=Dyke Geometry Along Strike, cex.main=1.2, font.main=4)
title(xlab=distance [m], cex.lab=1.2)
title(ylab=half-thickness [m], cex.lab=1.2)

box()


I would like curve fitting where I proceeded with a non
linear-regression with the according function below:

nls(formula = Y2 ~ abs(b*abs(1-X2^2/a^2)^(1/2)), start = list( a=282,
b=40))

The formula should give the y-positive part of an ellipse in my opinion
or I might be completely wrong.

In the end I would like to fit a curve of half an ellipse through the
data.  I might could do this as well with a 2nd order polynomial fit. I
am grateful for any suggestions and comments to my problem.


Cheers

 Thank you for your time and patience.

Self contained means anyone else can just copy your code and paste it
into their session and see the error message you see.

Its likely that your file does not contain what you think it does.

Re: [R] 95% confidence intercal with glm

2010-09-29 Thread Sam
Hi Ben and list,

Sorry to be a pain! I have followed your code, and modified it -

 pp - predict(model1,se.fit=TRUE, type = response)
 etaframe -
 + with(pp,cbind(fit,lower=fit-1.96*se.fit,upper=fit+1.96*se.fit))
 pframe - plogis(etaframe) 
 pframe

My response variable is 0 or 1, the probabilities are all high above my cut-off 
point of 0.445, i think this may have something to do with 

 you may need to multiply by the binomial N as
 appropriate.

However how do i multiply if my response is 0 or 1?

Furthermore, will the approach above work for a ordinal response?

Thanks

Sam

If you're using a binomial model you need 'plogis' rather than 'exp'
as your
inverse link, and you may need to multiply by the binomial N as
appropriate.

 You need to use predict with se=TRUE; construct the confidence
 intervals by computing predicted values +- 1.96 times the standard
 error returned; and apply the inverse link function for your
 model.
 
 If heteroscedasticity is your main problem, and not a specific
 (known) non-normal distribution, you might consider using the gls
 function from the nlme package with an appropriate 'weights'
 argument.

[R] generalized additive mixed models for ordinal data

2010-09-29 Thread Camarda, Carlo Giovanni
Dear R-users,

Is there any R-function for fitting generalized additive mixed
models for ordinal data? Do they actually make some sense? I can fit a
generalized linear mixed model for ordinal data using the function
clmm(ordinal) and I'm able to cope with generalized additive model for
ordinal data within the package VGAM.
But I would like to fit something like: 

g(\gamma_{ij}) = \theta_{j}  +  x_{i1} \beta_1  +  f(x_{2i})  +  u_{i}, 

where \gamma_{ij} denote the cumulative probability that the i-th
observation falls in the j-th category or below. 

Sorry for the rather out-of-R question,
Carlo Giovanni Camarda

I don't see any obvious way to do that with xtable. You may wish to contact the

In Frank's Hmisc package, there is the latex() function, which has separate

[R] nlminb and optim

2010-09-29 Thread Doran, Harold
I am using both nlminb and optim to get MLEs from a likelihood function I have 
developed. AFAIK, the model I has not been previously used in this way and so I 
am struggling a bit to unit test my code since I don't have another data set to 
compare this kind of estimation to.

The likelihood I have is (in tex below)

\begin{equation}
\label{eqn:marginal}
L(\beta) = \prod_{s=1}^N \int \prod_{i=1}^K\frac{e^{x_{is}(\theta_s-\beta_i)}} 
{x_{is}!e^{e^(\theta_s-\beta_i)}} f(\theta)d(\theta)
\end{equation}

Where I view $\theta$ as a nuisance parameter and so I integrate it out of the 
likelihood. The goal is to get parameter estimates for $\beta$. The integral 
cannot be easily evaluated so I approximate it as:

\begin{equation}
\label{eqn:marginal2}
L(\beta) \approx \prod_{s=1}^N \sum_{q=1}^Q 
\prod_{i=1}^K\frac{e^{x_{is}(\theta_{q}-\beta_i)}} 
{x_{is}!e^{e^(\theta_{q}-\beta_i)}} w_q
\end{equation}

\noindent where $\theta_{q}$ is the node at quadrature point $q = 1, \ldots, Q$ 
and $w_q$ is the weight at quadrature point $q$.

For now, I am assuming $f(\theta)$ is Uniform but this may change and that is 
not a major issue. Now, I have written a function using both nlminb and optim. 
I have copied my function below where the arguments are the data set, Q for the 
number of quadrature points, and an option for providing starting values. I am 
running into some flow control problems and so I hack it a bit and fix a lower 
bound as you may see in the function.

Here is the issue at hand. First, nlminb and optim give different parameter 
estimates. Optim tells me it converged but nlminb tells me I get relative 
convergence. If I use different number of quadrature points in optim, I get 
very different parameter estimates and this should not happen. But, varying the 
number of quadrature points in nlminb yields the same parameter estimates, but 
I am not sure the model converged.

I have also provided the data set I am working with below as well as 
sessionInfo(). There may be many issues going on here and am grateful for any 
reactions you all may have. I *think* my likelihood is written properly and I 
*think* I am handling flow control issues in a relatively decent way. I may be 
misinterpreting optim or nlminb reports.

In any event, should anyone take the time to review this and offers pointers I 
would be grateful.
Harold

Re: [R] 95% confidence intercal with glm

2010-09-29 Thread Chris Mcowen
Right, that makes sense, thanks

The reason i used type= response was i wanted to convert the predicted 
probabilities to the response scale, as surely this is the scale at which a 
95CI value is most useful for?

I.e 

 pp - predict(model1,se.fit=TRUE, type = response)


1  0.68

Probability of point 1 having a response of 1 = 0.68 - # this is above the 
cutoff therefore this has a response of 1

Then it would be of most use to get the 95CI on this scale to see if the 
probability straddles the cutoff value?

Maybe i am missing something?

Thanks

 If you're using a binomial model you need 'plogis' rather than 'exp'
 as your
 inverse link, and you may need to multiply by the binomial N as
 appropriate.

 i understand up to this point and i understand what this means,

 i use family=binomial is this wrong if i use this method to
 calculate 95% CI?

 I had to use a glm instead of my basic lm on some data due to

 now, when I plot the model over the data, how can I easily get
 the 95% confidence interval that sormally coming from:
 
 yv - predict(modelVar,list(aveLength=xv),int=c)
 matlines(xv,yv,lty=c(1,2,2))
 
 There is no interval argument to pass to the predict function
 when using a glm, so I was wondering if I had to use an other
 function
 
 
 You need to use predict with se=TRUE; construct the confidence
 intervals by computing predicted values +- 1.96 times the standard
 error returned; and apply the inverse link function for your
 model.
 
 If heteroscedasticity is your main problem, and not a specific
 (known) non-normal distribution, you might consider using the gls
 function from the nlme package with an appropriate 'weights'
 argument.

[R] getDLLVersion

2010-09-29 Thread Kyle Covington
Hi,

I'm just learning to write R extensions in C and to embed R in C.

I was trying to get through the example in the help page on calling the .dll
directly (
http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-exts.html#Calling-R_002edll-directly
).

When I compile I consistently get the error that getDLLVersion() as well as
get_R_HOME() and getRUser() are undefined references.

These are defined in Rembedded.h ln60 as:
extern char *getDLLVersion(void), *getRUser(void), *get_R_HOME(void);

I included Rembedded.h from the example.

I searched the entire R directory for the string getDLLVersion and only
found it in Rembedded.h and the help documentation (for the .dll directly
example).

Am I missing some key file or just not understanding how these functions
work?  I'm just learning C so this may be a very basic question.  If anyone
could point me to a good reference on this it would be very helpful.

Technical Notes:
OS: win7 32bit
Compiler: mingw32
R: 2.11.1

Thanks
Kyle

Re: [R] FW: creating a custom background

2010-09-29 Thread Thomas Stewart
Ethan-

You need to be more explicit about what you mean by 'background'.  Do you
mean:
(a) the entire plot including margins?, or
(b) only the plotting area?, or
(c) a different color for both margins and plotting area?

If you want (a), the solution is par(bg = '#003D79').

If you want (b), the solution is a little trick I picked up from the R help
archives:

plot.area.col-function(col){
  ttt-par()$usr
  rect(ttt[1],ttt[3],ttt[2],ttt[4],col=col)
  }

plot(1,1,
  panel.first=plot.area.col('#003D79')
  )

If you want (c), you can combine both (a) and (b) as follows:

par(bg = 'blue')

plot(1,1,
  panel.first=plot.area.col('red')
  )

Hope that helps.

If you are using the plot function, and you only want to change the plot
area colored

If this is svmlight in klaR, it seems not to.  But ?formula will

[R] R crashes when loading rgl package before minqa package

2010-09-29 Thread Gaspard Lequeux


Hej,

Calling newuoa (from the minqa package) makes R crash when the package rgl 
is loaded first. This however only on certain selected data.


The data used for testing (saved to 'bugs.R'):


xvals = 
c(1,2,4,5,7,8,9,10,11,12,14,15,16,18,19,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36)

yvals = 
c(857.7597,975.8624,978.2655,979.3034,965.5919,983.8946,992.2512,992.1178,979.5379,974.4269,968.4113,991.5210,977.3361,985.7800,975.5220,974.6880,973.8102,980.7295,982.0034,984.7993,978.4948,970.4351,969.0718,983.7892,976.3637,980.7833,987.1665,976.6000,975.1332,971.0757,989.4693)

initpar = c(-5.1471384, -3861.8905839, 979.2616002, 0.2572355, 27.5705764)

optimft - function(x) {
  yft = x[2] + (x[3] - x[2])/((1 + exp(x[1] * (log(xvals) - log(x[4]^x[5])
  return(sum((yvals - yft)^2))
}


Sequence of commands needed to make the bug appear:

Start R
source('bugs.R')
library(minqa)
library(rgl)
newuoa(initpar, optimft)
 = OK

Start R
source('bugs.R')
library(rgl)
library(minqa)
newuoa(initpar, optimft)
  = Crash: segfault: address 0x18, cause 'memory not mapped'

I found the bug using the package qpcR, where rgl is loaded when loading 
qpcR while minqa is only loaded later, when needed.



Running on Debian squeeze 64 bit.
R version: R version 2.11.1 (2010-05-31) x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
rgl version: 0.91
minqa version:  1.1.9
Rcpp version: 0.8.6 (loaded by minqa)

[R] R Graphic - Tellis as a potential

2010-09-29 Thread Jeevan Duggempudi
Hello all, 

I have been meaning to learn R for a while and have  just subscribed to this 
list. I am planning to give R a shot at one of  my live projects. I am looking 
to explore graphical features of R on my  data below. 


Sample Data:
Cat1 - Cat2 - Cat3 - Cat4 - NumPeople - Salary
H - L - H - L - 100 - 5
L - L - L - L - 40 - 3
 - H - H - - 100 - 45000

Cat1 through Cat4 are categorical variables containing High, Medium, Low or 
Blank values and the last two variables are continuous. 


1.  Is there a good way of graphically representing this data in R? I am  
looking for total population and average salary within each combination  of 
values. 

2. Cat1 and Cat2 are related while  Cat3, Cat4 are related. I have a grid in 
Excel that summarizes by  having (Cat1 + Cat2) on the left and (Cat3 + Cat4) on 
the top. Could we  draw this kind of matrix using R? I started looking up this 
morning and  see that this could be done using trellis objects. I will 
appreciate if  anyone has examples similar to this. 


Thanks,

Re: [R] Problems extracting p-value from summary(aov(...))

2010-09-29 Thread Dennis Murphy
Hi:

Someone off-list (Josh Wiley - thank you) mentioned the Error() term in the
OP's ANOVA, which I missed in responding to the post - sorry for the
misinformation. Using the npk example with code that Josh showed me, we
have, for the following model,

npk.aov2 - aov(yield ~ N*P*K + Error(block/P), data = npk)
npk.aovE2 - summary(npk.aov2)
str(npk.aovE2)
List of 3
 $ Error: block  :List of 1
  ..$ :Classes ‘anova’ and 'data.frame':2 obs. of  5 variables:
  .. ..$ Df : num [1:2] 1 4
  .. ..$ Sum Sq : num [1:2] 37 306
  .. ..$ Mean Sq: num [1:2] 37 76.6
  .. ..$ F value: num [1:2] 0.483 NA
  .. ..$ Pr(F) : num [1:2] 0.525 NA
  ..- attr(*, class)= chr [1:2] summary.aov listof
 $ Error: block:P:List of 1
  ..$ :Classes ‘anova’ and 'data.frame':3 obs. of  5 variables:
  .. ..$ Df : num [1:3] 1 1 4
  .. ..$ Sum Sq : num [1:3] 8.4 33.1 38.3
  .. ..$ Mean Sq: num [1:3] 8.4 33.14 9.57
  .. ..$ F value: num [1:3] 0.878 3.464 NA
  .. ..$ Pr(F) : num [1:3] 0.402 0.136 NA
  ..- attr(*, class)= chr [1:2] summary.aov listof
 $ Error: Within :List of 1
  ..$ :Classes ‘anova’ and 'data.frame':5 obs. of  5 variables:
  .. ..$ Df : num [1:5] 1 1 1 1 8
  .. ..$ Sum Sq : num [1:5] 189.282 95.202 21.282 0.482 147.023
  .. ..$ Mean Sq: num [1:5] 189.282 95.202 21.282 0.482 18.378
  .. ..$ F value: num [1:5] 10.2994 5.1802 1.158 0.0262 NA
  .. ..$ Pr(F) : num [1:5] 0.0124 0.0524 0.3133 0.8754 NA
  ..- attr(*, class)= chr [1:2] summary.aov listof
 - attr(*, class)= chr summary.aovlist

In this case, the p-values can be gotten from each component of the list,
but one has to read the output from str() carefully. For example, under each
$Error component is another component, and it is the subcomponent that needs
to be subsetted to grab the p-values:

Top level:
 npk.aovE2[[1]][[1]][, 5]
[1] 0.5252361NA

Mid-level:
 npk.aovE2[[2]][[1]][, 5]
[1] 0.4017266 0.1362185NA

Bottom level:
 npk.aovE2[[3]][[1]][, 5]
[1] 0.01243794 0.05239664 0.31325902 0.87540509 NA

BTW, this is one reason why str() is such an important function in R.

Thanks to Peter and Josh for pointing out my error; apologies for the
thickheadedness.

Dennis

 I.e., you need an extra list extraction operator. The data structure goes

 List of 2
  $ Error: block :List of 1
  ..$ :Classes ‘anova’ and 'data.frame':2 obs. of  5 variables:
  .. ..$ Df : num [1:2] 1 4
  .. ..$ Sum Sq : num [1:2] 37 306
 ...
  and the intermediate list has class (summary.aov,listof). I believe
 the point is that you can have a matrix LHS and get a table for each of its
 columns.

[R] [R-pkgs] caret package version 4.63

2010-09-29 Thread KuhnA03
Version 4.63 of the caret package is now on CRAN.

caret can be used to tune the parameters of predictive models using
resampling, estimate variable importance and visualize the results.
There are also various modeling and helper functions that can be
useful for training models.

caret has wrappers to over 99 different models for classification
and regression. See the package vignettes or:

  http://user2010.org/slides/Kuhn.pdf
  http://www.jstatsoft.org/v28/i05

for more details. 


Since the last posting to the list:

 - wrappers for a number of new models were added, notably gam
   models (from both the gam and mgcv packages) and logic trees

 - when resampling with train(), class probabilities can now be
   used to calculate performance (such as the AUC of an ROC curve).
   A basic summary function, twoClassSummary(), can be used to
   calculate sensitivity, specificity and the ROC AUC.

 - repeated k-fold CV and the bootstrap 632 technique are available
   in train()

 - pre-processing can not be used within each resampling iteration
   within train().

 - a function for independent component regression (icr) was added

 - the class for aggregating and visualization resampling results
   (resamples) has been enhanced with more visualization methods.
   The class can also work with caret's feature selection routines
   (rfe() and sbf())

 - the print method for train() has been improved

 - functions can be now be passed to the tuneGrid argument in
   train()

 - an existing function that catalogs the existing models available
   within train(), called modelLookup(), is now available to the
   users

 - when parallel processing, more computations are being executed
   in the worker processes than previously (e.g. performance calcs)

The NEWS file has the blow-by-blow list of changes.


The package homepage is

  Thank you for your time and patience.

 Self contained means anyone else can just copy your code and paste it
 into their session and see the error message you see.

 Its likely that your file does not contain what you think it does.

[R] 95% confidence intercal with glm

2010-09-29 Thread Sam
Dear List and Ben

( I apologise if this has been sent twice, but it is not showing in my sent 
folder and i have been having trouble with my email of late)

Right, that makes sense, thanks

The reason i used type= response was i wanted to convert the predicted 
probabilities to the response scale, as surely this is the scale at which a 
95CI value is most useful for?

I.e 

 pp - predict(model1,se.fit=TRUE, type = response)


1  0.68

Probability of point 1 having a response of 1 = 0.68 - # this is above the 
cutoff therefore this has a response of 1

Then it would be of most use to get the 95CI on this scale to see if the 
probability straddles the cutoff value?

Maybe i am missing something?

Thanks

become asymmetric.

 My response variable is 0 or 1, the probabilities are all high above my
cut-off point of 0.445, i think this may have something to do with
 
 you may need to multiply by the binomial N as
 appropriate.
 
 However how do i multiply if my response is 0 or 1?
 

if 'size=1' (i.e. Bernoulli trials) then you would be multiplying by
1, so don't bother.

 If you're using a binomial model you need 'plogis' rather than 'exp'
 as your

 Hi
 
 I had to use a glm instead of my basic lm on some data due to

 now, when I plot the model over the data, how can I easily get
 the 95% confidence interval that sormally coming from:
 
 yv - predict(modelVar,list(aveLength=xv),int=c)
 matlines(xv,yv,lty=c(1,2,2))
 
 There is no interval argument to pass to the predict function
 when using a glm, so I was wondering if I had to use an other
 function
 
 
 You need to use predict with se=TRUE; construct the confidence
 intervals by computing predicted values +- 1.96 times the standard
 error returned; and apply the inverse link function for your
 model.
 
 If heteroscedasticity is your main problem, and not a specific
 (known) non-normal distribution, you might consider using the gls
 function from the nlme package with an appropriate 'weights'
 argument.

Re: [R] 95% confidence intercal with glm

2010-09-29 Thread Ben Bolker
  [I'm a little confused: are you Sam Smith or Chris Mcowen ... ?]

  This is admittedly a bit confusing, but the best scale on which to
compute standard errors is the link scale.
   It turns out (I hadn't realized this) that predict.glm does give
you not-crazy answers when you ask for
se.fit=TRUE on the response scale, in which case you can (a)  just
take +/- 1.96 SE around the response-scale fit and be done.
However, these are less accurate than doing what I suggested ((b)
computing fit +/- 1.96 SE on the link scale and
inverse-link-transforming).  Among other things, method a produces
confidence intervals that are exactly symmetric (generally
not true) and that are not necessarily bounded within the appropriate
range -- for example, the lower 95% CI bound for females
in the example below is slightly  0 ...

[R] Simplify, several Ave or aggregates

2010-09-29 Thread skan

Hello.

How can I write this all in one line?

mydata is a zoo series, limit is a numeric vector of the same size

tmp - ave(coredata(mydata),as.Date(index(mydata)),FUN = function(x) (
(cummax(x)-x )) )
tmp - (tmp  limit)
final - ave(coredata(tmp),as.Date(index(mydata)),FUN = function(x) cumprod(
x) )

I've tried to use two vectors as argument to ave(...) but it seems to accept
just one even if I join them into a maxtrix.

This is just an example, but any other function could be use.

Here I need to compare the value of cummax(mydata)-mydata with a numeric
vector and once it surpasses it I'll keep zeros till the end of the day. The
cummax is calculated from the beginning of each day.

If limit were a single number instead of a vector (with different possible
numbers) I could write it:

ave(coredata(mydata),as.Date(index(mydata)),FUN = function(x) cumprod(
(cummax(x)-x )  limit) )

But I can't introduce there a vector longer than x (with the length of each
day) and I don't know how to introduce it as another argument in ave()

cheers

Try adding a layout.widths setting to your wireframe call:

  par.settings = list(layout.widths = list(key.right = 0.8))


You might then have to adjust the space on the right with

  par.settings = list(layout.widths = list(key.right = 0.8,

Re: [R] drawing samples based on a matching variable

2010-09-29 Thread Charles C. Berry

On Tue, 28 Sep 2010, L Brown wrote:


Hi, everyone. I have what I hope will be a simple coding question. It seems
this is a common job, but so far I've had trouble finding the answer in
searches.

I have two matrices (x and y) with a different number of observations in
each. I need to draw a random sample without replacement of observations
from x, and then, using a matching variable, draw a sample of equal size
from y. It is the matching variable that is hanging me up.

For example--


# example matrices. lets assume seed always equals 1. (lets also assume I

have assigned variable names A and B to my columns..)

set.seed(1)
x-cbind(1:10,sample(1:5,10,rep=T))
x

 [A] [B]
[1,]12
[2,]22
[3,]33
[4,]45
[5,]52
[6,]65
[7,]75
[8,]84
[9,]94
[10,]   101



Looks like set.seed(1) was invoked here, too.


y-cbind(1:14,sample(1:5,14,rep=T))
y

 [A] [B]
[1,]12
[2,]22
[3,]33
[4,]45
[5,]52
[6,]65
[7,]75
[8,]84
[9,]94
[10,]   101
[11,]   112
[12,]   121
[13,]   134
[14,]   142


#draw random sample of n=4 without replacement from matrix x.
x.samp-x[sample(10,4,replace=F),]
x.samp

[A] [B]
[1,]33
[2,]45
[3,]52
[4,]75

Next, I would need to draw four observations from matrix y (without
replacement) so that the distribution of y$B is identical to x.samp$B.

I'd appreciate any help, and sorry to post such a basic question!



Break it down like this:


x.levels - sort( unique(x[,2]) )
x.samp.tab - table( factor( x.samp[,2], x.levels ) )
y.rows - split(1:nrow(y),factor( y[,2], x.levels ) )
unlist( mapply( sample, y.rows, x.samp.tab ),use.names=FALSE )


In some cases sample might fail if

length( y.rows[[i]] )  x.samp.tab[ i ]

you can trace which element that was using 'traceback()' or write a 
wrapper for sample() that checks that condition.


HTH,

Chuck

[R] eha aftreg overall p-value

2010-09-29 Thread T. Smithson
Dear useRs,

I am currently fitting an advanced failure time model using Göran
Broström's excellent eha library with the aftreg command.

My question: How do I interpret the Overall p-value, that is
reported at the very bottom of the output? I already figured out it
must be a chi-square test, but I am wondering what a p-value  0.01
means:

Does it mean my model fits the actual data correctly OR does it mean
my model DOES NOT fit the data correctly? In other words: Is it
better to have a small or a large overall p-value?

EXAMPLE OUTPUT:
Events230
Total time at risk  3340
Max. log. likelihood  -380.34
LR test statistic 16.7
Degrees of freedom1
Overall p-value   4.41898e-05

Any advice is highly appreciated!!

Thanks
Thomas

Re: [R] Table with different digit number

Thank you very much for your solution but it works only in a dataframe

I use, as a workaround, to fill with blank spaces the left of each number,
so when I print the table, it appears aligned to right.

But, obviously, this doesn't work for the HTML table, because HTML ignores
multiple white spaces .

Any suggestion?

[R] executing loop

I am trying to define a loop for a m*n matrix, where i=1:n and j=1:m. Unlike
the usual for loop, i should go in the following way:

For j=1,
i=1,2,3,n
For j=2,
i=n,n-1,n-2,..,1
For j=3,
i=1,2,3,.n etc.
which means i should go in either increasing or decreasing order
alternatively.
Can anyone please help me in doing this?

[R] Converting a line by line program into an array to perform summary stats

2010-09-29 Thread George Coyle
I am trying to turn several lines of information into a variable.  I used
the filx function to input my file then the readlines to qualify what I
want.  Essentially I have data in a file every 10 minutes through a day for
several years down a column:

date time value
9/28/10   02:00  13
9/28/10   02:10  15
9/28/10   02:20  12
9/28/10   02:30  11
etc.

I then use if statements to segment the day into various portions (2:00 to
2:30 for example) and find the average or maximum value for the time.  Next
I compare this value to another time of the day to see if the price was
reached/broken.  For example the 2:00 to 2:30 low from above is 11 at 2:30.
I would then check the 8:00 to 13:00 time period to see if the 2:00 to 2:30
low occured from 8:00 to 13:00.  If it did occur I would call this day a
qualifier and check the time 2:30 price occured in the 8:00 to 13:00 period
until the price at 13:00.  So another example if 2:30 was 11, 8:00 was 13,
8:45 was 11, and 13:00 was 20 I would say this day qualified and the price
from the am was first acheived at 8:45 in the 8:00 to 13:00 period and the
change from that price to the 13:00 period was 20-11=+9.

This example was all background to my problem.  Using the filx/readlines
methods I wind up with output for the days which qualify, but when I try to
create an array variable using the total of each line for a given column
(aka summarizing every day that my given criteria were met), something about
having used the line by line method doesn't allow me to create an array
variable.  It only gives me the last value.  The variables I declared to
fidn the qualifying days are specific to each day vs across all days that
qualified.  Is it possible to convert this line by line data into an array
wih some R code I don't know?

I considered converting the data example above into a matrix, but then I run
into tricky problems of shortened days and days missing data (the code I
used for the readlines method enables me to specify the new days without
this problem...I don't have to fill in blanks it just changes days when it
hits a new day).  Given how specific this problem is I can't find much on
the R help logs.

Perhaps outputting the line by line output to a file, then reinputting it
using a read.csv method would enable me to achieve my desired result but
then I have the laborious task of dumping into excel, converting file types,
saving as csv, reuploading to R, writing a separate program, etc.

Is there an easy fix to my problem?

Thanks

[R] resampling issue

I am trying to get R to resample my dataset of two columns of age and length
data for fish.  I got it to work, but it is not resampling every replicate.
Instead, it resamples my data once and then repeated it 5 times.  

Here is my dataset of 9 fish samples with an age and length for each one:   
Age Length
2   200
5   450
6   600
7   702
8   798
5   453
4   399

2   202


Here is my code which resamples my data to produce up to 9 different samples
and creates a new dataset of 12 samples: 

testdat-growth[sample(9,12,replace=T),]


Now I want R to repeat this procedure 5 times. Here is my code: 


testdat2 - replicate(5, sample(testdat), simplify=F)
testdat2

Here is my output showing that it did it once and then just repeated the

I think that you want:

replicate(5, growth[sample(9,12,replace=T),], simplify = FALSE)

Re: [R] spplot cuts

2010-09-29 Thread bbolker


  Hmmm.  Maybe a documentation typo in ?spplot.
  If you follow the documentation through to ?levelplot, you find
that 

cuts: number of levels the range of ‘z’ would be divided into

(no mention of actual breakpoints) but:

 at: numeric vector giving breakpoints along the range of ‘z’.
  Contours (if any) will be drawn at these heights, and the
  regions in between would be colored using ‘col.regions’.  In
  the latter case, values outside the range of ‘at’ will not be
  drawn at all.  This serves as a way to limit the range of the
  data shown, similar to what a ‘zlim’ argument might have been
  used for.  However, this also means that when supplying ‘at’
  explicitly, one has to be careful to include values outside
  the range of ‘z’ to ensure that all the data are shown.

 So you might try 'at' instead of 'cuts'.

George,

it is very difficult to understand what you want, so let' try to chop it
down. Let's say you want to find the best way to do some time of processing
on what generally called a time series.

First, reading this into a matrix will not work, because you have three
different column types. The standard workhorse for this type of data is a
dataframe, and read.csv gives a data frame.

Next, note that your structure is even simpler: you have a time series,
probably not an regular one, because I assume your stock quotes are not
available all the time with equal intervals, but will stop at night.

So the general idea would be: 
 read in a data frame with read.csv
 convert to a time series. See package zoo for many examples
 do the processing (which I do not understand) on the time series

If you need the space after the comma then just change ',' to ', '.

[R] New package GAD (General ANOVA Design)

2010-09-29 Thread Maurício Camargo
Hi, everyone.

GAD package analyses complex ANOVA models with any combination of
orthogonal/nested and fixed/random factors, as described by Underwood
(1997). There are two restrictions: (i) data must be balanced; (ii)
fixed nested factors are not allowed. Homogeneity of variances is
checked using Cochran's C test and a posteriori comparisons of means
are done using Student-Newman-Keuls (SNK) procedure.

Best,

Maurício G. Camargo

[R] Trying to avoid loop structure

2010-09-29 Thread Mathieu Beaulieu

Dear R-helpers,
I'm trying to associate linear coefficients (intercept and slope) to tens of 
thousands of observations based on a table with benchmark values.
#Example - Value table and their corresponding coefficients (intercept and 
slope)
coef = data.frame(cbind(st=c(1:5),b = runif(5,0.3,5),a = 
seq(0.5,5,1)))print(coef)
#Example of observations to be computedobs = runif(20,1,5)print(obs)

#This should be fairly simple - but I can't get the loop structure out of my 
head. I don't know how to tell the software if the observation is greater than 
st[i-1] but smaller than st[i], use a[i] and b[i] - otherwise go to the next 
line.So far, I've tried this:
for(t in 1:length(obs)) {
for(i in 1:length(coef$st)) if(coef$st[i-1]  obs[t]  coef$st[i]) x[t] 
= coef$b[i] + (coef.$a[i] * obs[t])
}#  
Doesn't work - if statement do not accept double conditions structure (y[-1]  
x  y) and I should put an else statement - but i'm stuck there. I have the 
feeling I should look into lapply but it doesn't seem like lapply works with 
if statements.
Any tips would be much appreciated,

Re: [R] Trying to avoid loop structure

2010-09-29 Thread Phil Spector

Mathieu -
   First of all, you can combine as many conditions as 
you want in an if statement, using  (and) and || (or).

So to say
coef$st[i-1]  obs[t]  coef$st[i]
use
coef$st[i-1]  obs[t]  obs[t]  coef$st[i]

So following your logic, you could use

x = numeric(length(obs))
for(t in 1:length(obs)) {
  for(i in 1:length(coef$st))
 if(coef$st[i-1]  obs[t]  obs[t]  coef$st[i])
   x[t] = coef$b[i] + (coef$a[i] * obs[t])
}

Alternatively, you could solve the problem using R:

mapply(function(o,i)coef$b[i] + coef$a[i] * o, obs,
cut(obs,c(coef$st,6),labels=FALSE) + 1)

The graphics engine does a lot of this sort of clipping (not just text), 
but all of it is silent.  You certainly wouldn't want to print all 
clipping warnings to screen and there is no current plan to return 
clipping information from the graphics engine.  The current expectation

   plot(1,xlab=t,ylab=t,main=t)

then if I shrink my graphics window I can make the ylab

not the xlab or title.

  Seems to affect any rotated expressions:

plot(1)

text(1,1,t,srt=0)
text(1,1,t,srt=45)


  Now shrink window and watch the rotated expressions

Barry



I don't claim to understand it, but there is something quite
fundamental about the properties of the X11() graphics device in R
that makes labels that would otherwise overlap, disappear -- if
you do 'extreme resizing' with the graphics above, you can see that
otherwise-overlapping x- and y-axis tick labels disappear as the
graph gets scrunched.  This is (apparently) true of X11 graphics
on MacOS as well -- Quartz window has a different behavior.
Trying with pdf() as well -- for height=2, width=2, only 1 y-axis
and 2 x-axis tick labels survive, *but* the x and y labels and the
title are all still present (but clipped, of course).
[Hmmm. Take my reports above with a grain of salt, I wasn't
always using expression()s.]

   So I would guess that if you reported this as a bug you would
be told that it was a poorly documented property of R's X11
graphics model, rather than a bug ...

   I have no idea where to start looking for more information
about what defines this behavior -- if I were desperate to know
I would probably try asking Paul Murrell ...

   I would be very interested to see this discussed on r-devel,
if anyone bit ...
