[R] function to filter identical data.fames using less than () and greater than ()

2012-12-06 Thread Karl Brand

Esteemed UseRs,

I've got many biggish data frames which need a lot subsetting, like in 
this example:


# example
eg - data.frame(A = rnorm(10), B = rnorm(10), C = rnorm(10), D = rnorm(10))
egsub - eg[eg$A  0  eg$B  1  eg$C  0, ]
egsub
egsub2 - eg[eg$A  1  eg$B  0, ]
egsub2

# To make this clearer than 1000s of lines of extractions with []
# I tried to make a function like this:

# func(data=eg, A= 0, B= 1, C= 0)

# Which would also need to be run as

# func(data=eg, A= 1, B= 0, C=NA)
#end

Noteably:
-the signs*  and  need to be flexible _and_ optional
-the quantities also need to be flexible
-column header names i.e, A, B and C don't need flexibility,
i.e., can remain fixed
* less than and greater than so google picks up this thread

Once again i find just how limited my grasp of R is...Is do.call() the 
best way to call binary operators likein a function? Is an ifelse 
statement needed for each column to make filtering on it optional? etc


Any one with the patience to show their working version of such a 
funciton would receive my undying Rdulation. With thanks in advance,


Karl

Rui,

Indeed it does help. Also very happy to see eval() and parse() employed 
and demystified here.


In Rdulation,

Hi Jeff,

Subset is indeed what's reuqired here. But using it every time it's 
needed was generating excessive amounts of obtuse code. So for the sake 
of clarity and convenience i wanted a wrapper function to replace these 
repetitious subsets.


Although Rui's example works just fine, love to see any idiomatic ways 
you might attempt this (also for the sake of improving my grasp of R).


Cheers,

Karl

Re: [R] function to filter identical data.fames using less than () and greater than ()

2012-12-06 Thread Karl Brand
My problem is that using [ every time i want to extract my data of 
interest is cumbersome and verbose for the next guy suffering through 
reading my code. Since my extractions are always on the same columns and 
depend on either ,  or neither, a wrapper function or perhaps 
different function besides [ will likely solve my problem. Indeed 
Rui's example achieves exactly what i wanted. Keep in mind my grasp of R 
remains limited and you might think my problem is more complex than it 
is. So i'm only inviting further solution's to this problem for the sake 
of improving my grasp of R. You certainly have my understanding should 
this go beyond what you might invest your time in :)


No less, your example code:

eg$grpcol[with(eg,grpcol!=Default  A1  B1)] - ABTooLow)

already provides educational material for me, thank you.

Chrs, K

You ask me to provide code when you have only described your solution rather 
than your problem. That limits my options more than I care to allow for 
investing my time.

When I think of problems that require repetitive subsetting I tend to look for solutions involving aggregation 
(?aggregate, ?plyr::ddply), which requires creating one or more grouping columns which can be formulated with the 
cut function or with logical indexed assignment (e.g. a sequence of statements something like 
eg$grpcol[with(eg,grpcol!=Default  A1  B1)] - ABTooLow).

So... what is your problem?

Simon,

Thanks alot for the further clarification. As i said some where in my 
lengthy explanation - i don't what of the myriad steps were needed, only 
that they were performed and i now have an up-to-date rJava.


Next time (actually coming up soon) i'll certainly be following the

used with the latest R (which is all i intend to install).

Many thanks for your and Simon's input,



FWIW you should not need to set any custom settings if you system is properly 
configured (if you use Java 1.7 you may need R 2.14.0 or higher which works 
around some bugs in 1.7 binaries). On Debian/Ubuntu you just install your 
favorite JDK (Sun/Oracle or OpenJDK) and use 'sudo update-alternatives --config 
java' or 'sudo update-java-alternatives' (depending on the age of your system) 
to select the right one.

The fact you you had to tweak PATH means that something is seriously broken or 
you did setup the alternatives configuration correctly.

Cheers,
Simon

Success. For myself and FWIW to other useR's here's how i spent the 
sunny half of my sunday to achieve it :/


Many thanks for your and Simon's input,

Karl

Since:

$ javac -version

returned nothing i believe you (and Simon) were right, i.e, it (and JDK) 
were missing on my system. Furthermore:


$ sudo R CMD javareconf
Java interpreter : /usr/bin/java
Java version : 1.6.0_23
Java home path   : /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre
Java compiler: not present
Java headers gen.:
Java archive tool:
Java library path: 
$(JAVA_HOME)/lib/amd64/server:$(JAVA_HOME)/lib/amd64:$(JAVA_HOME)/../lib/amd64:/usr/java/packages/lib/amd64:/usr/lib/jni:/lib:/usr/lib
JNI linker flags : -L$(JAVA_HOME)/lib/amd64/server 
-L$(JAVA_HOME)/lib/amd64 -L$(JAVA_HOME)/../lib/amd64 
-L/usr/java/packages/lib/amd64 -L/usr/lib/jni -L/lib -L/usr/lib -ljvm

JNI cpp flags:

Updating Java configuration in /etc/R
Done.

Some things are clearly absent i.e.,
Java compiler: not present
Java headers gen.:
Java archive tool:

Now i have:

$ javac -version
javac 1.6.0_23

$ sudo R CMD javareconf
Java interpreter : /usr/bin/java
Java version : 1.6.0_23
Java home path   : /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre
Java compiler: /usr/bin/javac
Java headers gen.: /usr/bin/javah
Java archive tool: /usr/bin/jar
Java library path: 
$(JAVA_HOME)/lib/amd64/server:$(JAVA_HOME)/lib/amd64:$(JAVA_HOME)/../lib/amd64:/usr/java/packages/lib/amd64:/usr/lib/jni:/lib:/usr/lib

-L$(JAVA_HOME)/lib/amd64 -L$(JAVA_HOME)/../lib/amd64

JNI cpp flags: -I$(JAVA_HOME)/../include

Updating Java configuration in /etc/R
Done.

Certainly i don't know exactly what was needed to achieve this. BUT - 
for posterities sake, this is what i did:


## purge and reinstall openjdk-6-jdk which turned outwasn't installed!
## how this can be when i have a /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk full of
## files i don't understand. Moreover since i had the previosu version
## of rJava running fine!!!
$ sudo apt-get purge openjdk-6-jdk
snip
Package openjdk-6-jdk is not installed, so not removed
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

## install openjdk-6-jdk
$ sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk

## Per- http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1491846
## added 2 entries to /etc/bash.bashrc file
$ gksudo gedit /etc/bash.bashrc

## entries were:
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre
export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin

## note the addition of /jre for JAVA_HOME per-
## 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3311940/r-rjava-package-install-failing


saved bash.bashrc file then reloaded

$ source /etc/bash.bashrc

## confirmed
$ echo $JAVA_HOME
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre

## configured java
$ sudo R CMD javareconf

I was then able to update rJava in a new R-session.

Also note that per- 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3311940/r-rjava-package-install-failing


$ apt-get install r-cran-rjava

did NOT enable me to update my rJava. Unless i buggered up something 
else along the way :/

What you want to look for is javac, not jdk. On my ubuntu system, this
is to be found at /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-i386/bin/javac


So i'd like to know how i can ensure it's registered in R. This i have no
idea how to do. I simply don't have enough R and linux experience. Also the
thread i mentioned
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3311940/r-rjava-package-install-failing
seems to be about pointing R at the right location of certain aspects of
Java. But lacks enough explicit details for myself to be able use.


A previous response indicated R javareconf -- this is the only
configuration you should need. Let me know if you have further
problems.

Simon,

Thanks for yout fast response. Thing is - i managed to get Version 0.9-1 
installed and fully functional. And


$ locate jdk

returns too many entries to post here, so i'm pretty sure its on the 
machine.


So i'd like to know how i can ensure it's registered in R. This i have

Obviously - your'e lacking JDK on your machine - see the output above (you have 
only JRE, not JDK). If you want to compile rJava form sources you need to 
install JDK first, then add Java support to R (via javareconf) and then build 
rJava.

Cheers,
Simon

Re: [R] How does one start R within Emacs/ESS with root privileges?

2011-09-09 Thread Karl Brand

Thanks a lot for sharing your experience and suggestions.

I see now the logic of making use of my user library which doesn't 
require root privs. Apparently linux is actually set up to work well - 
something i'm not used to from the other OS i've used till now.


And for the rare times i do need to install into the system-wide 
library, i think i'll survive in the terminal :P


cheers,

Karl

hope this helps.

Hi Karl,

Why the need to install packages in root? As you are the only user there
is not reason to install them system wide (to make them available to all
users, which is just you). Installing the packages in your homedir
solves your problem much easier, without the need to run R as root
continuously. I think you should not run anything as root if it is not
absolutely needed, which could potentially damage your system
(accidentally overwriting something).

hope this helps,
Paul



In addition, it's nice to be able to install packages 'on the fly'
when and as needed and not need to launch a separate R session (as
root) in the terminal just to install a package.

Migrating from windows, i'm completey new to linux (ubuntu) and am
seeing for myself if Emacs/ESS is as good as its purported to be. So
maybe my motivation is nonsensical to expereinced ESS/R users. If so
i'd really appreciate tips on efficient package
installation/maintenance using Emacs/ESS.

TIA,

karl

Re: [R] X11 problem

2011-08-25 Thread Karl Brand

Hi Carol,

When i ran into this problem, using the instructions as guide from here:

http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/

I did the following:

Went to this site: http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/

searched for: 0xE084DAB9

Then clicked the hyperlinked E084DAB9, copy, pasted and saved as .txt 
the contents of the entire page that your served by this link. This 
'key.txt' is then imported (via gui on 11.04 natty) by:


synaptic  settings  repositories  authentification tab  click 
'import key file' and select your saved 'key.txt'


Hope it works for you,

karl

Re: [R] heatmap.2 - change column row locations; angle / rotate

2011-04-18 Thread Karl Brand

Hi Chakravarthy,

[dont forget to Cc the list for useRs with the same Q.]

If you're trying to reuduce the isze of your row or column labels, i 
think the following arguments of heatmap.2 {gplots} is what you want to 
adjust- 'cexCol' and 'cexRow'.


Specifically on my question that you ask about, i found the BioC forum 
helpful:


http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.science.biology.informatics.conductor/30112

And in fact the phylotemp() function by default pretty much did exactly 
what i needed, available here:


http://phylotemp.microeco.org/

However, it was pointed out to me  that some times the best way to get 
it just right is using more basic functions, which for heatmaps would be 
image(). See:


https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/pipermail/bioconductor/2010-August/034995.html

hth,

karl

Esteemed R user's,

I'm struggling to achieve some details of a heatmap using heatmap.2():

1. Change label locations, for both rows  columns from the default
right  bottom, to left and top.
Can this be done within heatmap.2()? Or do i need to suppress this
default behavior (how) and call a new function to relabel (what)
specifying locations?

2. Change the angle of the labels.
By default column labels are 90deg anti-clock-wise from horizontal. How
to bring them back to horizontal? Or better, rotate 45deg clock-wise
from horizontal (ie., rotate 135deg a.clock.wise from default)?

Any suggestions or pointers to helpful resources greatly appreciated,

Karl

Re: [R] Venn Diagram corresponding to size in R

2011-03-09 Thread Karl Brand

Hi Shira,

Check out venneuler

http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/venneuler/index.html

Labelling can be a little tricky, but if you search this forum for 
venneuler you'll find some tips which helped me.


hth,

Re: [R] attempted merge() returns: cannot coerce type 'closure' to vector of type 'any'

2010-12-02 Thread Karl Brand

Cheers Bill.

You got me halfway, since:

 temp - merge(x=x, y=y[,17, drop=FALSE], by=rownames, sort=FALSE)
Error in fix.by(by.x, x) : 'by' must specify valid column(s)

but, using row.names instead of rownames, like:
 temp - merge(x=x, y=y[,17, drop=FALSE], by=row.names, sort=FALSE)

works (but adds a column Row.names).

Which seems some what counter intuitive to me since i am feeding in two 
matrices to the merge function, which i understand have 'rownames', not 
'row.names' as data frames have, right? Although the output of merge() 
is a data frame...


thanks again,

Karl

At this point I think Bill should have suggested by=row.names since
that is the correct argument to merge() when asking for a rownames
match, and you appear to have found that by experimentation since you
didn't seem to have read the help page.



You got me halfway, since:

OK. It added a column what's the problem? The help(merge) pages says:
If the matching involved row names, an extra character column called
Row.names is added at the left, and in all cases the result has
‘automatic’ row names.



Which seems some what counter intuitive to me since i am feeding in
two matrices to the merge function, which i understand have
'rownames', not 'row.names' as data frames have, right?




Although the
output of merge() is a data frame...


Right. The merge function takes either dataframes or things which can be
coerced to dataframes as arguments and returns a dataframe. That is
exactly what the help(merge) page states outright (in many places). Just
because your arguments were matrices doesn't mean the returned object
should be one. Had you wanted it to be an augmented data.matrix with
rownames as before, you could gotten that after merge by:

?data.matrix
temp2 - datamatrix(temp[-1])
rownames(temp2) - temp$Row.names

(Or by the rather nice manipulations that you described using rownames
as indices.)

I think I understand the problem now  that you were expecting
merge() to behave differently than is documented.


Cheers David,

You nailed it- closer attention to the help page would defiently have 
saved us time.


No less, thanks a lot for highlighting this, and also for the merge() 
clarifications.


And insight into what physicists have to deaal with :)

cheers,

Karl

Some functions (e.g., library() and help()) try

Re: [R] venneuler (java?) color palette 0 - 1

2010-10-11 Thread Karl Brand

Hi Paul,

That's pretty much awesome. Thank you very much.

And combined with the colorspace package functions- rainbow_hcl() and 
sequential_hcl() -make color selection easy. One thing i was digging for 
was a function that yields a color palette *and* the hcl() call needed 
to produce it. This would help me better understand the hcl format. So 
where i can get the RGB codes like this-


 rainbow_hcl(4)
[1] #E495A5 #ABB065 #39BEB1 #ACA4E2


- which is fine for color specification, is there a palette function 
that might help obtain the hcl() call needed to produce a given palette? 
ie., the 'h', 'c' and 'l' (and 'alpha' if appropriate) values for a 
given color/shade??


Thanks again and in advance for any further pointers,

Karl

The color spec stored in the VennDiagram object is multiplied by 360 to

Alternatively, you can control the colours when you call plot, for

[R] venneuler() - customize a few things.

2010-10-07 Thread Karl Brand

Esteemed UseRs and DevelopeRs,

Just coming to terms with the very attractive proportional venn 
gernator, venneuler(), but would like to customize a few things.


Is it possible to-

-suppress all circle labels?
-suppress only certain circle labels?
-print specific text strings at specified locations within the circles? 
and unions?

-specify circle colors?
-specify label font, size  color?

All thoughts and response's greatly appreciated, cheers,

Karl

[R] create a '3D line plot'

2010-09-12 Thread Karl Brand

Esteemed useRs and developeRs,

I need to create a  '3D line plot' (proper name?) of which an excellent 
example can be viewed here:


http://cococubed.asu.edu/images/87a/images/unknown_pleasures.jpg

I have some experience using the rgl package to create 3D PCA plots, but 
have no idea where to start for an image like this.


I'd really appreciate suggestions  help on how might achieve this using R,

Re: [R] create a '3D line plot'

2010-09-12 Thread Karl Brand

Cheers!

All excellent, runable examples helping me progress quickly.

Being more a qualitative plot, the y-axis is less important. But it did 
get me thinking-


Coloring each of the plotted lines, say 'altitude colors' like the 
classic volcano example to reflect the (scaled) values the lines 
represent might be effective at representing individual y-axis magnitude 
for each line. Perhaps gray background at least.


Maybe if there were examples of the lines() func. using colors dependent 
on the y-value? Or some one already made a function for achieving this? 
(Google didnt return anything obvious for me...yet).


Sincere thanks for help thus far, and welcome any further pointers,

Karl

I wouldn't use rgl for that: it's really a flat 2D plot, without
perspective, shading or anything else that 3D plots have other than
foreground objects hiding background ones. You can draw it by using
polygon() to hide the background then lines() to draw the lines.

Here's an example using regular 2d graphics:


n - 60
m - 50
x - seq(-4,4, len=m)

# Make up some fake y data

y - matrix(NA, n, m)
for (i in 1:n) y[i,] - dnorm(x)*runif(m, 0.5,1)

par(bg=black)
yrange - range(c(y, y+n/20))

plot(x, x, type=n, axes=FALSE, bg=black, ylim=yrange)

for (i in n:1) {
y1 - c(y[i,] + i/20, 0, 0)
x1 - c(x, x[m], x[1])
polygon(x1,y1,col=black)

lines(x, y[i,] + i/20, col=white)

}

The problem with this kind of plot is that it's almost impossible to
display a usable vertical scale.

[R] 'programatically' list or call objects for use in a function?

2010-09-11 Thread Karl Brand

Esteemed R users and developers,

How does one 'programatically' list or call objects for use in a function?

For example, i thought i could do something better than this:

save(A.cwb, B.cwb, C.cwb, D.cwb, E.cwb, F.cwb, file=afile.RData)

with something like these-

prfxs - c(A, B, C, D, E, F) #**
save(as.name(paste(prfxs, cwb, sep=.)), file=afile.RData)

or this-

do.call(save, paste(prfxs, cwb, sep=.), file=afile.RData)

Both failed.

#** And while i've got your attention- is there a 'letter equivalent' to 
seq() which would have worked nicely for prfxs? ie., letter.seq(A:F)


Thoughts and suggestions sincerely appreciated,

Karl

It depends on the function.



For example, i thought i could do something better than this:

save(A.cwb, B.cwb, C.cwb, D.cwb, E.cwb, F.cwb, file=afile.RData)

with something like these-

prfxs - c(A, B, C, D, E, F) #**
save(as.name(paste(prfxs, cwb, sep=.)), file=afile.RData)


For save, use list=paste(prfxs, cwb, sep=.).



or this-

do.call(save, paste(prfxs, cwb, sep=.), file=afile.RData)


do.call wants a *list* of arguments, not a single vector of character
strings. You could construct a list of the names of the objects you want
to save, but that's a pain. Just use the list= argument (which doesn't
want a list argument :-).



Both failed.

#** And while i've got your attention- is there a 'letter equivalent'
to seq() which would have worked nicely for prfxs? ie., letter.seq(A:F)


Not that I know of, but LETTERS[1:6] will give you the sequence, and
it's easy to write a function that you'd call as letter.seq(A, F).
Having your function work as in your example would be messy.

Duncan Murdoch

Re: [R] how do I transform this to a for loop

Many thanks for your comment,

-- John Chambers
   Programming With Data, p. 173 (1998)

If I had to do a series of computations like this I would actually use the loop 
to create the code and then run it as a batch job.  Loops can be very slow 
because of 'backout'.

Try the following little script, which take about no time at all.


comm- quote(M- arima(data.ts[START:FINISH], order = c(1,1,1)))
subst- function(Command, ...) do.call(substitute, list(Command, list(...)))

sink(fitArmias.R)
for(i in 1:100) {
thisComm- subst(comm,
M = as.name(paste(arima, substring(1000+i, 2), sep = )),
START = 0+i, FINISH = 200+i)
print(thisComm)
}
sink()


and then look at the file fitArimas.R.  If you were to run this as a batch job 
- the way I would do things - it would work *much* faster than doing the same 
thing in a for() loop the way I suggested.

Just a comment, of course.

Re: [R] how do I transform this to a for loop

2010-09-06 Thread Karl Brand

Hi Paul, Ivan,

Hartstikke bedankt and thanks alot for sharing these thoughts. I can see 
'listing up' multiple symmetrical data sets makes a lot of sense. As 
does using lapply() on them which i understand to be more 
efficient/faster than for().


Goodo- with your concensus (and helpful examples) i can tell myself 
investing the extra time to use lapply on lists /will/ pay off in the 
long run vs. copying and pasting (nearly) the same line of code 10 times 
for every data manipulation...


thanks again,

Karl

Hi Karl,

The why do it like this is probably direct towards creating 9 new

would be to create a list with nine entries. This is much easier for any
subsequent analyses. An example that uses lapply (an efficient syntax
for loops):

sseq - c(1, seq(5, 40, by = 5))
result_list = lapply(sseq, function(num) {
arima(data.ts[num:(num+200)], order=c(1,1,1))

Would you or anyone else be patient enough to post an example of such

[R] heatmap.2() yielding an inappropriate key?

2010-07-19 Thread Karl Brand

Esteemed R-users,

heatmap.2() is yielding an inappropriate key based on my colors and 
break-points.


In the reproducible example below, the key is inappropriate (to me) because-

1. 'Orange' is simply not represented in the key, despite its prescence 
in the heatmap.
2. The proportions of the key are clearly out, ie., my largest bin, (0.1 
- 0.2) is half the range, but this bin (colored gray) clearly extnds 
bellow the 0.1 tick mark of the key, beyond its specified bin.


What am i missing/doing wrong? Or for a key set up like this example is 
heatmap.2() unsuitable, necessitating production with another graphics 
functions? If so, recommendations appreciated. I have tried ggplot2, but 
struggle getting this function producing what i need. And i just need to 
make a nice key at this point.


All thoughts and suggestions greatly appreciated.
cheers,

karl


#reproducible example:

Re: [R] heatmap.2() yielding an inappropriate key?

I see now my error, several in fact:

The 'breaks' specified need to be of a similar range to the data range, 
and they should be equally spaced.


So in my example:

If one needs uneqaully spaced coloring, as i do, then this is achieved 
by specifying the approprate color per bin, and repeating the same color 
as needed. Script below achives my goal. But if anyone has a simpler 
method they'd care to share- would be v. happy to receive!

Esteemed R-users,

In the reproducible example below, the key is inappropriate (to me)
because-

1. 'Orange' is simply not represented in the key, despite its prescence
in the heatmap.
2. The proportions of the key are clearly out, ie., my largest bin, (0.1
- 0.2) is half the range, but this bin (colored gray) clearly extnds
bellow the 0.1 tick mark of the key, beyond its specified bin.

What am i missing/doing wrong? Or for a key set up like this example is
heatmap.2() unsuitable, necessitating production with another graphics
functions? If so, recommendations appreciated. I have tried ggplot2, but
struggle getting this function producing what i need. And i just need to
make a nice key at this point.

All thoughts and suggestions greatly appreciated.

[R] heatmap.2 - change column row locations; angle / rotate

2010-07-18 Thread Karl Brand

Esteemed R user's,

I'm struggling to achieve some details of a heatmap using heatmap.2():

1. Change label locations, for both rows  columns from the default 
right  bottom, to left and top.
Can this be done within heatmap.2()? Or do i need to suppress this 
default behavior (how) and call a new function to relabel (what) 
specifying locations?


2. Change the angle of the labels.
By default column labels are 90deg anti-clock-wise from horizontal. How 
to bring them back to horizontal? Or better, rotate 45deg clock-wise 
from horizontal (ie., rotate 135deg a.clock.wise from default)?


Any suggestions or pointers to helpful resources greatly appreciated,

Karl

[R] Why the variation when creating .pdf file output for my plots?

2010-06-30 Thread Karl Brand

Esteemed R Users,

Would some one be patient enough to explain the variation i see when 
creating .pdf file output for my plots? FYI- my goal is produce the 
highest quality .pdf output from the R 'command line' as opposed to 
using the menu of the acitve graphics window.


Im using 32bit WinXP. Session info at the bottom. I have Ghostscript 
v8.71  installed and in the Path such that C:\gswin32c.exe runs said 
program.


All shared insights appreciated!

Karl

Method 1:
In the R graphics device window, form the menu FileSave AsPDF

-yields a .pdf file of 700Kb (in this plot example)

Method 2:
 dev2bitmap(file=expression.density.plotb.pdf, type = pdfwrite,
 method = pdf)
 dev.off()

-yields a .pdf file of 300kb (same plot example) indistinguiashble (on 
the screen atleast) from method 1.


Method 3:
 pdf(file=my_plot.pdf, paper=a4)
 dev.off()

-yields a .pdf file of 1kb (same plot example) and returns the following 
error when attempting to open with Adobe acrobat:

Re: [R] Why the variation when creating .pdf file output for my plots?

2010-06-30 Thread Karl Brand

Thank you Erik!

That works nicely now. The file size in (in kilobytes) is equal to the 
FileSave AsPDF method.


Still curious why the file sizes (in Kb), differ by a factor of ~2 
between the two methods:


pdf()
dev2bitmap(method = pdf)

I'm just *assuming* here that file size is inidcative of image quality. 
Is this assumption correct? If so, how would one increase .pdf quality 
within the  dev2bitmap() function?


With thanks for any further thoughts on this, cheers,

Karl

Method 3:

The `pdf` function opens a *new* graphics device, you then send output
to the device before calling dev.off(), e.g.,

pdf(file = my_plot.pdf)
plot(1:10, 1:10)
dev.off()




-yields a .pdf file of 1kb (same plot example) and returns the

Hi Karl,
Your request prompted me to have a look at the getFigCtr function in the
plotrix package. All I had to do was to add an argument to adjust the
proportion of the figure region that was calculated, and it will do what
you want, I think. The new function will be in the next version.

getFigCtr-function(pos=c(0.5,0.5)) {
pars-par(c(usr,mar,fin,pin))
pxspan-diff(pars$usr[1:2])
fxspan-pxspan*pars$fin[1]/pars$pin[1]
figxctr-
pars$usr[1]-(fxspan-pxspan)*pars$mar[2]/(pars$mar[2]+pars$mar[4]) +
fxspan*pos[1]
pyspan-diff(pars$usr[3:4])
fyspan-pyspan*pars$fin[2]/pars$pin[2]
figyctr-
pars$usr[1]-(fyspan-pyspan)*pars$mar[1]/(pars$mar[1]+pars$mar[3]) +
fyspan*pos[2]
return(c(figxctr,figyctr))

Re: [R] using the design matrix to correctly configure contrasts

2010-06-04 Thread Karl Brand

Rich, Walmes,

Thank you for enriching my understanding of the concept of 
interaction: succinctly and clearly explained. I feel i can better 
phrase my question, the context being much clearer now.


In my case, i want to see the simple effects of changing levels of time, 
whilst holding Photperiod and Tissue constant. And i wnat to do this for 
each of the (total) 6 levels of Photoperiod and Tissue.


My poor working knowledge of R leaves me stuck, for now, with the 
default treatment constrasts i get when using the function model.matrix. 
In fact thats been fine, once i decoded the interpretation of the 
colnames of the model.matrix using available examples, at least for 
analyses no more complex than 2-way interactions.


Now im faced with 3 factors, and a model.matrix where i am unble to see 
the constrasts im interested in explictly stated. Does this mean they 
are not possible, ie., i lack enough observations for the contrasts i 
want? If so then i'm still missing some basic concepts of ANOVA.


#I have three photoperiod treatments:

Pperiod - factor(targets$Pperiod, levels = c(E, L, S))

#Two different tissues were sampled from each* subject:

Tissue - factor(targets$Tissue, levels = c(R, C))

#*Such samples are said to be 'paired', no? Not sure how to deal with
#this, how necessary dealing with it is, or how possible...

#And where 16 unique subjects were sampled (for tissues R asnd C
# at 16 different times giving the #third factor:

Time - factor(targets$Time,
   levels = c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8,
  9,10,11,12,13,14,15, 16))

My primary question is- what changes occur across all times for each 
p.period and tissue combination., ie., ER, LR, SR, EC, LC  SC?


Contrast wise, this appears straight forward to me for ER, LR, SR 
 EC which are explicit in the model.matrix i get from R (shown again 
below). That is, *assuming* my interpretation of the contrast is correct 
which is what my original post focused on.


But, its just not obvious to me how LC and SC (for all times) 
contrasts can be specified.


This is my practical problem i'm yet to overcome. And using the package 
contrast hasn't helped me overcome this so far (thank you no less Walmes).


Further thoughts and advice gratefully received,

Karl

Karl,

The definition and interpretation of contrasts is part of any
intermediate design of
experiments text.
Contrasts for interactions say that the effect of moving
from level 1 of A to level 2 of A depends on the level of B.
I will use notation YAB to indicate the levels of A and B.
For example, if
(Y11 - Y21) differs from (Y12 - Y22)
we say that A and B have an interaction.  When A and B interact, then
the interpretation of main effects is ambiguous at best.  Instead,
we use the concept of simple effects, which, for example, are the
effects of changing levels of A while holding the levels of B
constant.
Interpreting the interactions themselves depends on knowing something
about the structure of the design, for example whether the effects (A
and B, here) are treatments, blocks, nested effects, or repeated
measures.
Simple effects are usually interpretable.  Interactions are tougher.

Re: [R] using the design matrix to correctly configure contrasts

2010-06-02 Thread Karl Brand

[Reposting to list]

Thank you Rich.

I still don't get it.

If i understand correctly- the MMC example on maize data outlines an 
issue with the multiple ties between group means. As a result of this, 
user specified contrasts needed specifying.


Its this part, understanding the design matrix (ie., the 'treatment 
contrast' for the ANOVA /or lm design) so that one knows *how* to set 
up cunstom contrasts- the underlying logic- that i need to learn. Demystify.


In this maize example, if it is explained, regretfully i missed it. 
Perhaps i'm making somthing out of nothing, its self evident and i'm 
just complicating it. In that case a bucket of cold water is what i 
need. But maybe you have another example? Or an explicit tutorial 
covering this?


Unfortunatley the local stats here are thin on the ground and thus 
overworked. No time for R-101 for troublsome biologists like me...


Back to the miaze example in case i missed 'it', and with sincere thanks 
for your suggestion,


karl

I succeeded getting my contrasts of interest set up for a simpler 2-way 
ANOVA based on the fairly intuitive logic of the design col.names.


But i'm not able to extend this logic to a more complex three way ANOVA. 
Obviously there *is* a logic to the 0's and 1's of R's design 
'treatment contrast' matrix- i see that the 1's correspond to each of 
the factors that an observation is associated with. But exactly how this 
information can be used to ascribe contrasts of interest remains beyond 
my understanding, especially where interaction is concerned. Googling 
for days didn't yield the help i was looking for.


Can some one point me to a detailed explanation (suitable for R 
dilettantes) how to specify any contrast of interest given a design matrix?


For anyone really needing some diversion, i'd *really* appreciate a 
personal explanation using my design as an example. Warning- its not 
small...

#sensical out put follows suggesting i'm on the right track

BUT! Most basically, the contrasts i can NOT work out are:

t1.S.CvsAll.Times  t1.L.CvsAll.Times

ie., similar to t1.S.RvsAll.Times  t1.S.RvsAll.Times above but for the 
C tissue, not the S.

[R] Multivariate hypergeometric distribution version of phyper()

2010-03-30 Thread Karl Brand

Dear R Users,

I employed the phyper() function to estimate the likelihood that the 
number of genes overlapping between 2 different lists of genes is due to 
chance. This appears to work appropriately.


Now i want to try this with 3 lists of genes which phyper() does not 
appear to support.


Some googling suggests i can utilize the Multivariate hypergeometric 
distribution to achieve this. eg.:


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypergeometric_distribution

But when i try to do this manually using the choose() function (see 
attempt below example with just two gene lists) i'm unable to perform 
the calculations- the numbers hit infinity before getting an answer.


Searching cran archives for Multivariate hypergeometric show this term 
in the vignettes of package's ‘combinat’ and ‘forward’. But i'm unable 
to make sense of the these pachakege functions in the context of my 
aforementioned apllication.


Can some one suggest a function, script or method to achieve my goal of 
estimating the likelyhood of overlap between 3 lists of genes, ideally 
using the multivariate hypergeometric, or anything else for that matter?


cheers in advance,

Karl

Re: [R] Multivariate hypergeometric distribution version of phyper()

2010-03-30 Thread Karl Brand

Peter, Chuck,

Big thanks for your input.

I will be following up each and every of your suggestions on the morrow.

Something of note though that you may have further thoughts on- phyper() 
was *specifically* recommneded by BioC responders for my application in 
spite of the fact i originally thought a bootstrapping approach seemed 
most logical given a quasi dependency* between gene lists. I implore you 
to have a thorough read through my recent BioC thread here:


http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.science.biology.informatics.conductor/27909

After more than a week since posting on the BioC without response, i 
reposted here the question you now kindly addressed. Clearly i'm yet to 
resolve this by following up your suggestions, and any response you may 
offer on the BioC thread will no doubt be enlightening for me.


Thanks again,

Karl

*Probably gene expression has varying levels of dependancy, but atleast 
for comparing the 3 lists i can say they all come from independent 
biological replicates (animals) which in theory doesn't violate any of 
phypers assumptions. Right? I won't go into my 2 gene-list comparisons 
which are between 'paired' tissues each derived from the same animals. 
They probably can not be considered truly independant...

Karl,

I strongly support Chuck's recommendations.
If you do still want to compute such probabilities 'by hand',
you could consider the lchoose() function which does work
for your example.

Two suggestions:

1) Don't! Likely the theory is unsuited for the application. In
most applications that generate lists of genes, the genes are
not iid realizations and the hypergeometric gives results that
are astonishingly anticonservative. As an alternative , the
block bootstrap may be suitable. See
http://171.66.122.45/cgi/content/abstract/17/6/760

and Google (scholar) 'genomic block bootstrap' for some
starting points.


2) Take this thread to the bioconductor list. You are much
more likely to get pointers to useful packages and functions
for genomic statistical software there.

HTH,

Chuck
