language R   

and can't get a .Rprofile file into my workspaces.
The system doesn't accept the name .Rprofile
How do I get such a file into my workspaces?

...your .Rprofile is automatic integrated when
you starts R. You don't need to load it
in your workspace !
You can modify the settings  in/etc/Rprofile

I think the problem may be that Windows Explorer does not allow a name
starting with `.'.   However, the command-line and decent editors do.

I assume you mean ...\rw1061\etc\Rprofile.  That's not the same though, as
it is executed into package base and not the user workspace.

See ?Startup for a fuller explanation.

[R] On nlm

2003-01-05 Thread E. D. Isaia
Dear all, I have to minimize a (real) function in a loop (say i in 
(1:1000)) and store its ``$estimate'', via 

l2estim-nlm(f.minimo,c(-.01,0.1))$estimate

into a vector for further analisys.
Since the function's behaviour is quite  peculiar (in the sense that in 
the simulation study it may not have a minumum), sometimes I get the the 
warning

Error in nlm(minimo, c(-0.01, 0.1), check.analyticals = FALSE) : 
	non-finite value supplied by nlm
In addition: There were 50 or more warnings (use warnings() to see the first 50)

and the cicle stops. How can I avoid this and tell R that if so then l2estim-0, for example.

Thanks to all, isaia.

[R] Statistical Learning and Data Mining short course

2003-01-05 Thread Rob Tibshirani

I thought this might be of interest to R users:


Short course: Statistical Learning and Data Mining

Trevor Hastie and Robert Tibshirani
Stanford University

Sheraton Hotel,
Palo Alto, California
February 27-28, 2003

This two-day course gives a detailed overview of statistical
models for data mining, inference and prediction.

This sequel to our popular Modern Regression and Classification course
covers many new areas of unsupervised learning and data mining,
and  gives an in-depth treatment of some of the hottest tools
in supervised learning. Applications to genomics, marketing
and engineering are discussed.

The first course is not a pre-requisite for this new course.

Much of the material is based on our recent book:

Elements of Statistical Learning: Data Mining, Inference and Prediction,
Hastie, Tibshirani  Friedman, Springer-Verlag, 2001.
http://www-stat.stanford.edu/ElemStatLearn

A copy of this book will be given to all attendees.

For more information on the course, and registration information,
go to the site
