 There are two problems:
 
 1. as.POSIXlt is not generic.  (This problem may not be too important
 given that as.POSIXlt does handle Date and chron dates classes
 already but in terms of handling all potential classes its a limitation.)

But as.POSIXlt can be implemented as generic. Given the variatey of
potential classes this would be a reasonable move.

[R] Odd behaviour of R

2006-08-18 Thread Hiroto Miyoshi
Dear R-users

I need your help. I am agonised by the odd behaviour of R

when Pb set to 0.3 and 0.7

data-read.csv(output.csv,header=TRUE)

   for(Pb in seq(0.1,0.9,0.1)){
 work-data[((data$N==N)  (data$Pb==Pb)),]
 print(work)

 }

That is, when Pb set to 0.3 and 0.7,
print(work) prints out the message [1] NPb   a
bcdoutcomeA outcomeB 0 rows (or 0-length row.names)

However, data does exist when Pb is 0.3 or 0.7. And
when line work-data[((data$N==N)  (data$Pb==Pb)),]
is placed outside the for loops after Pb is manually set to 0.3,
print(work) successfully prints out the appropriate data.
Namely,

Why is this happen?
I am using R version 2.3.0.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

[R] Maximum length of R GUI input line?

2006-08-18 Thread Eric Fegraus
Hello,


I'm using R 2.3.1 on Windows.

I'm generating some very long SQL statements. I do this by using paste() which 
will contain many strings and variables.  I'm getting an error when the the 
total line length is longer than about 1013 characters.  For example, it works 
with the line containing 1013 characters and not when it is 1059.

I've looked into adjusting the options(width) and a handful of other settings.  
 I have a feeling there is some other setting i'm missing that i can adjust.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Re: [R] fitting truncated normal distribution

2006-08-18 Thread Schweitzer, Markus

 Thank you Sundar,

Yes, always integers. By demand data I meant the amount of ordered
products in a certain period. Therefore, x is a vector of periods (i.e.
Weeks in a year)

In my example we could see an article, that has only been ordered in two
weeks within one year.
All the zeros show, that nobody has ordered the items in these periods.
(First half of the year/first 24 weeks)

Since the orders cannot be negative, some literature recommended to use
a truncated normal distribution (Poisson and negative binomial are also
recommended).

My x is just a sample out of the dataset. There might be other time
series with better attributes for a truncated normal distribution.

My problem is simply, that I only get an error message when I use
fitdistr.

Error in [-(`*tmp*`, x = lower  x = upper, value = numeric(0))
nothing to replace.

I hope, there is a way fitdistr can also compute difficult data.

Hi, Markus,

Are these always integers? Why do you think they should be normal or
Weibull? Seems more like a mixture with a point mass at 0 and something
else (e.g. Poisson, negative binomial, normal). Though it's hard to tell
with what you have provided. If that's the case you'll have to write
your own likelihood function or, if they are integers, use zip
(zero-inflated Poisson) or zinb (zero-inflated negative binomial). Do an
RSiteSearch to find many packages will do these fits.

RSiteSearch(zero-inflated)

Again, this is pure speculation based on your x below alone and no
other information (I'm not sure what demand-data means).

You should always supply the package name where dtnorm is located. My

Also, you should supply a reproducible example so others may

[R] rotating axis labels in plot with multiple plots

2006-08-18 Thread Karin Lagesen

I have a plot like this, consisting of 18 different vioplots:

(monospaced font)

- - - - - -
lab |16 | |13 | |10 | | 7 | | 4 | | 1 |
- - - - - -
lab |17 | |14 | |11 | | 8 | | 5 | | 2 |
- - - - - -
lab |18 | |15 | |12 | | 9 | | 6 | | 3 |
- - - - - -
  a b c d e f

This I create in such a way that in the graph itself plot 1 appears in
the top left corner, and plot 18 in the bottom right corner. I then
flip it around when I show it in my paper (it was simpler to do it
that way, this might change:)).

I am now trying to make labels a to f, which are a set of numbers
which are _local_ to each graph group. Now I would like these numbers
to be either vertical to the axis (so that they are in normal text
direction when the paper is rotated so that graphs 18-16 are on top),
or possibly 45 degrees to the plot group.

This is the way I create labels and such:

plot.window(xlim = xlim, ylim = ylim)
axis(2, at = at, labels=toptitle, tick=FALSE)
if(!bottom) {
  if(!left){ # nothing  ok
axis(1, at = at, labels = label, tick=FALSE)
  }
  else{ # not bottom, but left
axis(1, at = at, labels = label, las=2)
  }
}
else{
  text(lognumbers, par(usr)[3] - 0.25, srt = 135, adj = 1,labels = 
loglabels, xpd = TRUE)
  if(!left){ # bottom, but not left
# want to replace this one with the text
# axis(4, at = lognumbers, labels=loglabels, las=2)
  }
  else{ # bottom and left  not ok
axis(1, at = at, labels = label, las=2)
# want to replace this one with the text
# axis(4, at = lognumbers, labels=loglabels, las=2)
  }
}
  }

In this sceme graphs 18-16 are defined as being left, whereas graphs
3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 are defined as bottom.

My question relates to my attemt to set nice-looking axis labels using
text. When I put them on as they are shown here, they show up on
(relative to image above) the left side of the bottom graphs. How do
I get them to show up on the side I would like them to?

Hope this was somewhat understandable...:)

Re: [R] ARMA(1,1) for panel data

2006-08-18 Thread Spencer Graves
  For normal panel data, the standard R tool is the nlme package, 
documented in Pinheiro and Bates (2000) Mixed-Effects Models for S and 
S-Plus (Springer).  See the examples in ?corARMA. 

  I recommend you spend some quality time with Pinheiro and Bates 
(2000).  If you do that, I suggest you start by looking at ch01.R, 
ch02.R, ..., ch06.R, ch08.R in ~library\nlme\scripts in your R 
installation directory.  These files contain the R commands used in Ch. 
1, Ch. 2, etc., of that book.  Using them makes studying that book 
easier, more pleasant and productive for several reasons.  First, they 
save you the work of typing in the commands yourself.  Second, they save 
you the agony of wondering why you didn't get their answer when you have 
a typographical error.  Third, there are a very few subtle syntax 
changes between the book and R that generate different answers for the 
unwary.  Fourth, you can experiment with different alternatives to test 
your understanding, etc. 

  If your data required non-normal models, I would recommend 'lmer' 
associated with the 'lme4' package.  However, that's newer and does not 
have the same level of documentation, helper functions, etc. 

  Hope this helps.

hits for me, among which #11 was for systemfit{systemfit}, which 
mentions instrumental variables and probits.  I also got 6 hits for 
RSiteSearch(exogeneity) and 6 for RSiteSearch(endogeneity).  You 
might also check the 'sem' package. 

  If you don't find anything that does exactly what you want, I 
doubt if it would be too difficult to program it from scratch using 
something like optim if you couldn't find anything better using 
RSiteSearch or similar tools. 

  If you would like further help from this listserve, please submit 
another post.  In doing so, I suggest you include commented, minimal, 
self-contained, reproducible code illustrating something you've tried, 
as suggested in the final two lines of this email.  Substantial 
anecdotal evidence suggests that posts that conform more closely to the 
style describe in the posting guide 
www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html (which recommends including 
commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code)  tend to get 
better answers to their questions quicker than other posts. 

  Hope this helps.

 Hello All,

 I'm looking to test a variable in a logit model (glm(...,
 binomial(link=logit))) for exogeneity (endogeneity).  At this point I am
 planning to try implementing Jeffery Grogger's A Simple Test for Exogeneity 
 in
 Probit, Logit, and Poisson Regression Models, Economic Letters, 1990.  To do
 this, I need to be able to do an instrumental variables NLS regression.  Is
 there a simple way to do this?

 Alternatively, is there any other test for exogeneity (endogeneity) of a
 regressor that has been implemented in R, for binary models?

 Thanks,

 John.

Re: [R] fitting truncated normal distribution

2006-08-18 Thread Sundar Dorai-Raj
Hi, Markus,

One other suggestion is to add the lower argument to fitdistr:

fitdistr(x, dtnorm0, start = list(mean = 0, sd = 1), lower = 0)

where dtnorm0 is defined as before. This indicates to fitdistr that the 
optimization should be constrained. See ?optim for details.

Schweitzer, Markus wrote:
  Thank you Sundar,
 
 Yes, always integers. By demand data I meant the amount of ordered
 products in a certain period. Therefore, x is a vector of periods (i.e.
 Weeks in a year)
 
 In my example we could see an article, that has only been ordered in two
 weeks within one year.
 All the zeros show, that nobody has ordered the items in these periods.
 (First half of the year/first 24 weeks)
 
 Since the orders cannot be negative, some literature recommended to use
 a truncated normal distribution (Poisson and negative binomial are also
 recommended).
 
 My x is just a sample out of the dataset. There might be other time
 series with better attributes for a truncated normal distribution.
 
 My problem is simply, that I only get an error message when I use
 fitdistr.
 
 
Error in [-(`*tmp*`, x = lower  x = upper, value = numeric(0))
 
 nothing to replace.
 
 I hope, there is a way fitdistr can also compute difficult data.

 Hi, Markus,
 
 Are these always integers? Why do you think they should be normal or
 Weibull? Seems more like a mixture with a point mass at 0 and something
 else (e.g. Poisson, negative binomial, normal). Though it's hard to tell
 with what you have provided. If that's the case you'll have to write
 your own likelihood function or, if they are integers, use zip
 (zero-inflated Poisson) or zinb (zero-inflated negative binomial). Do an
 RSiteSearch to find many packages will do these fits.
 
 RSiteSearch(zero-inflated)
 
 Again, this is pure speculation based on your x below alone and no
 other information (I'm not sure what demand-data means).

Unfortunately I get the same error message.

# truncated normal distribution

dtnorm0 - function(x, mean, sd, a=0, log = FALSE) {
ln.dens - (dnorm(x, mean, sd)

if(any(oops - (xa)))
  ln.dens[oops] - (-Inf)
if(log)ln.dens else exp(ln.dens)

fitdistr(x, dtnorm0, start = list(mean = 0, sd = 1))

Maybe, when I alter mean and sd, I get an answer, which is not really

[R] Insert rows - how can I accomplish this in R

2006-08-18 Thread Sachin J
Hi,
   
  I have following dataframe. Column A indicates months. 
   
  DF - structure(list(A = c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 1, 
2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 11, 12, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8), B = c(0, 0, 0, 8, 
0, 19, 5, 19, 0, 0, 0, 11, 0, 8, 5, 11, 19, 8, 11, 10, 0, 8, 
36, 10, 16, 10, 22)), .Names = c(A, B), class = data.frame, row.names = 
c(1, 
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 
14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 
25, 26, 27))
   
  There is some discontinuity in the data. For example month 6, 9,10 data (2nd 
year) and month 6 data (3rd year) are absent. I want to insert the rows in 
place of these missing months and set the corresponding B column to zero. i.e., 
the result should look like:
   
  DFNEW - structure(list(A = c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 1, 
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8), 
B = c(0, 0, 0, 8, 0, 19, 5, 19, 0, 0, 0, 11, 0, 8, 5, 11, 
19, 0, 8, 11, 0, 0, 10, 0, 8, 36, 10, 16, 10, 0, 0, 22)), .Names = c(A,

Re: [R] 4^2 factorial help

2006-08-18 Thread Liaw, Andy
If you really want the quadratic terms, you need to keep those variables as
numeric, instead of factors.  (You might also want to look into something
like the central composite designs.)

summary() and coef() on the resulting fitted object should give you want you
need.  Things like these are covered in the An Introduction to R manual...

Try issuing the command:

Here is an example:

Re: [R] Variance Components in R

2006-08-18 Thread Iuri Gavronski
Harold,
I don't have a grouping variable. And yes, persons can be an important
source of variance, and they are the resp variable. rating is the
response.variable in the model you specified below. aov perhaps could give
me distorted results, because of unbalanced data (what estimation method it
uses? ANOVA?): not all respondents evaluated all stores.
I have five variables: resp (persons, the respondents), aspect (the
construct), item (the question), chain (the store the person is
rating) and sector (the economic sector where chain belongs, e.g.
groceries). And one response, rating.

The model would be?

fm - lmer(rating ~ resp + aspect + item + chain + sector + sector*resp +
sector*aspect + sector*item + chain*resp + chain*aspect + chain*item +
resp*aspect + resp*item  + sector*resp*aspect + sector*resp*item +
chain*resp*aspect)

Regards,

Iuri.

 Here is an example of how a model would be specified using lmer using a
 couple of your factors:

 fm - lmer(response.variable ~ chain*sector*resp
 +(chain*sector*resp|GroupingID), data)

 This will give you a main effect for each factor and all possible
 interactions. However, do you have a grouping variable? I wonder if aov
 might be the better tool for your G-study?

 As a side note, I don't see that you have a factor for persons. Isn't this
 also a variance component of interest for your study?

 I am trying to replicate Finn and Kayandé (1997) study on G-theory
 application on Marketing. The idea is to have people evaluate some aspects
 of service quality for chains on different economy sectors. Then, conduct a
 G-study to identify the generalizability coefficient estimates for different
 D-study designs.
 I have persons rating 3 different items on 3 different aspects of service
 quality on 3 chains on 3 sectors. It is normally assumed on G-studies that
 the factors are random. So I have to specify a model to estimate the
 variance components of CHAIN SECTOR RESP ASPECT ITEM, and the interaction
 of SECTOR*RESP SECTOR*ASPECT SECTOR*ITEM CHAIN*RESP CHAIN*ASPECT CHAIN*ITEM
 RESP*ASPECT RESP*ITEM SECTOR*RESP*ASPECT SECTOR*RESP*ITEM CHAIN*RESP*ASPECT.
 '*' in VARCOMP means a crossed design.
 Evaluating only the two dimensions interactions (x*y) ran in few minutes
 with the full database. Including three interactions (x*y*z) didn't complete
 the execution at all. I have the data and script sent to a professor of the
 department of Statistics on my university and he could not run it on either
 SPSS or SAS (we don't have SAS licenses here at the business school, only
 SPSS). Nobody here at the business school has any experience with R, so I
 don't have anyone to ask for help.
 Ì am not sure if I have answered you question, but feel free to ask it

  VARCOMP is available at SPSS advanced models, I'm not sure
  for how long it exists... I only work with SPSS for the last
  4 years...
  My model only has crossed random effects, what perhaps would
  drive me to lmer().
  However, as I have unbalanced data (why it is normally called
  'unbalanced design'? the data was not intended to be
  unbalanced, only I could not get responses for all cells...),
  I'm afraid that REML would take too much CPU, memory and time

Re: [R] Insert rows - how can I accomplish this in R

2006-08-18 Thread Gabor Grothendieck
Here are two solutions.  In both we break up DF into rows
which start with 1.

In solution #1 we create a new data frame with the required sequence
for A and zeros for B and then we fill it in.

In solution #2 we convert each set of rows to a zoo object z
where column A is the times and B is the data.  We convert
that zoo object to a ts object (which has the effect of
filling in the missing times) and then create a zoo object
with no data from its times merging that zoo object with z
using a fill of 0.

Finally in both solutions we reconstruct the rows from that by
rbind'ing everything together.


# 1
f - function(x) {
   DF - data.frame(A = 1:max(x$A), B = 0)
   DF[x$A,B] - x$B
   DF
}
do.call(rbind, by(DF, cumsum(DF$A == 1), f))

# 2
library(zoo)
f - function(x) {
   z - zoo(x$B, x$A)
   ser - merge(zoo(,time(as.ts(z)), z, fill = 0)
   data.frame(A = time(ser), B = coredata(ser))
}

2006-08-18 Thread Henrik Parn
Dear all,

I have a question on handling of missing values in lmList. My data set 
have continuous predictor and response, x and y, and a grouping variable 
group.id. All these variables have NAs and the data set also has several 
other variables that also contains NAs.

To create the lmList-object seems to work fine:
y.list - lmList(y ~ x | group.id, data=mydata, na.action=na.omit)

However, when I try to apply functions on the object such as coef or 
intervals it fails:

  coef(y.list)
Error in !unlist(lapply(coefs, is.null)) :
invalid argument type


If I beforehand select only the variables (still including missing 
values) used as arguments in lmList...
 
mydata2 - mydata[ , c(x, y, group)]

...and use mydata2 in lmList as above, coef and intervals works fine.

In order to provide a reproducible example, I made a small test data 
set. This data set contained the same pattern of NAs as in my real data 
set, i.e. NAs in both used and unused variables. The example turned out 
to be not very illustrative though, because strange enough 
'na.action=na.omit' works just fine on the small test data set so I 
don't bother to include it here...

I have not encountered any problems to apply other functions, such as lm 
or lme, to my data set.

Any idea what causes the error?

A related problem seems to have occured before, although it is not clear 
if different na.action options was tried in this case:

Thanks in advance for any help!

Best regards,

Henrik

[R] as.data.frame(cbind()) transforming numeric to factor?

2006-08-18 Thread Tom Boonen
Dear List,

why does as.data.frame(cbind()) transform numeric variables to
factors, once one of the other variablesused is a character vector?

#
x.1 - rnorm(10)
x.2 - c(rep(Test,10))
Foo - as.data.frame(cbind(x.1))
is.factor(Foo$x.1)

Foo - as.data.frame(cbind(x.1,x.2))
is.factor(Foo$x.1)

I assume there is a good reason for this, can somebody explain? Thanks.

 Hi All,

The documentation is certainly lacking in this area (I hope to improve
it in the coming months). Gabor mentioned the settings for axis

str(trellis.par.get(par.xlab.text))

Both can be controlled in the call directly, e.g.

histogram(1:10,

  xlab = list(cex = 2, col = 'red'))

Such use /is/ fairly well documented.

[R] R-update - what about packages and ESS?

2006-08-18 Thread Christian Hennig
Hi there,

it seems that if I update R, it doesn't find previously installed packages 
anymore and is also not found by ESS.
Actually the update has been done by our system administrator who assumed 
that there would be no problems with these things (I don't have root 
access to this system) and will perhaps not be too keen on installing
everything else again.
Is there any simple way how ESS and the packages can be connected to the 
new R?

I remember that whenever I updated R on my private computers, I installed 
everything else again as well - but that's certainly not everybodies 
taste...

Best,
Christian

Re: [R] as.data.frame(cbind()) transforming numeric to factor?

See the Note section of ?cbind, which states:

The method dispatching is not done via UseMethod(), but by C-internal
dispatching. Therefore, there is no need for, e.g., rbind.default.

The dispatch algorithm is described in the source file
(‘.../src/main/bind.c’) as

 1. For each argument we get the list of possible class memberships
from the class attribute.
 2. We inspect each class in turn to see if there is an an
applicable method.
 3. If we find an applicable method we make sure that it is
identical to any method determined for prior arguments. If it is
identical, we proceed, otherwise we immediately drop through to
the default code.

If you want to combine other objects with data frames, it may be
necessary to coerce them to data frames first. (Note that this algorithm
can result in calling the data frame method if the arguments are all
either data frames or vectors, and this will result in the coercion of
character vectors to factors.)


Thus, note the result of:

 str(cbind(x.1, x.2))
 chr [1:10, 1:2] -0.265756038510064 2.13220714034528 ...
 - attr(*, dimnames)=List of 2
  ..$ : NULL
  ..$ : chr [1:2] x.1 x.2

Since a matrix can only contain a single data type, the numeric vector
is coerced to character.

Then using as.data.frame() coerces the character matrix to factors,
which is the default behavior.

If you want to create a data frame, do it this way:

 str(data.frame(x.1, x.2))
`data.frame':   10 obs. of  2 variables:
 $ x.1: num  -0.266  2.132  2.096 -0.128 -0.466 ...
 $ x.2: Factor w/ 1 level Test: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1

or if you want to retain the character vector, use I():

 str(data.frame(x.1, I(x.2)))
`data.frame':   10 obs. of  2 variables:
 $ x.1: num  -0.266  2.132  2.096 -0.128 -0.466 ...
 $ x.2:Class 'AsIs'  chr [1:10] Test Test Test Test ...


See ?data.frame for more information.

Re: [R] R-update - what about packages and ESS?

2006-08-18 Thread Richard M. Heiberger
ESS finds R by one of two mechanisms.

If R is in your PATH, then ESS will find it.

Or, if you have explicitly set the emacs variable
inferior-R-program-name, in .emacs, site-start.el, or ess-site.el,
then ESS will find R.

My guess is that you have explicitly set inferior-R-program-name
to your previous version of R.

Re: [R] R-update - what about packages and ESS?

2006-08-18 Thread Prof Brian Ripley
Without knowing your OS this is hard to answer (and is the wrong list for 
the ESS question).

For Windows users, the packages part is covered in the rw-FAQ.

For Unix-alikes, it all depends how the update was done, but normal 
package update mechanisms (such as RPM) will not wipe out previously 
installed R packages: nor will 'make install'.

In either case you don't need root access to install packages, as you can 
use a private library.  We have things set up so a user's R_LIBS is 
something like

R_LIBS=~/Rlibrary:/usr/local/Rlibs:/usr/local/BioC

and then install.packages() automatically installs into the user's own 
library (if it has been created).

Re: [R] R-update - what about packages and ESS?

2006-08-18 Thread Christian Hennig
Thanks for the answers so far.

I have to go through this with my system administrator.

The system is slackware linux.

 For Unix-alikes, it all depends how the update was done, but normal
 package update mechanisms (such as RPM) will not wipe out previously
 installed R packages: nor will 'make install'.

I don't really understand what does not wipe out means. Certainly, the 
packages are not deleted from the hard disk, but...

Am I right that I should expect it as standard behaviour that all 
previously installed packages are found if R is updated in a 
straightforward manner (using make install, say)?
Or is the opposite true that I definitely should not expect it? (And is 
there any standard solution for this else than installing all packages 
again?)

 In either case you don't need root access to install packages, as you can
 use a private library.

That's not really enough because I want to have them accessible to 
students as well. Furthermore, the sysadmin may develop kind of a the 
whole R-thing is crap-attitude if I can't come up with a solution 
preventing new installation of all packages, and I don't really want 
that. So I'm rather not interested in discussing solutions 
which involve installing all packages again (I know that this is possible).

Best,
Christian

Re: [R] dataframe of unequal rows

2006-08-18 Thread Berton Gunter
How do you indicate which fields are present in a record with less than the
full number? Via known delimiters for all fields? Via the order of values
(fields are filled in order and only the last fields in a record can
therefore be missing)?

If the former, see the sep parameter in read.table() and friends.
If the latter, one way is to open the file as a connection and use
readLines()(you would check how many values were present and fill in the
NA's as needed).There may be better ways, though. ?connections will  get you
started.

 cbind() makes a matrix out of vectors, here a character matrix.  And then

Re: [R] Boxplot Help

2006-08-18 Thread Gabor Grothendieck
Try this:

result - boxplot(Petal.Length ~ Species, iris)
if (length(result$out))
 text(result$group, result$out, match(result$out, iris$Petal.Length),
   pos = 4, col = red)

If the outliers can be non-unique then match is not enough.
In that case assume that the nth occurrence of
any value in result$out is also the nth occurrence in the
vector boxplotted.  (Sort the data frame by group if that is
not the case.)   This assumption is sufficient to allow us to write
posof which gives the index into the data frame of any value in out.

# determine position of x in y
# assuming that if there are duplicates in x that
# they occur the same number of times and in
# the same order so that the 2nd occurrence of 37
# in x would correspond to the 2nd occurrence of 37 in y
posof - function(x, y) {
   n - sapply(seq(x), function(m) sum(x[m] == x[1:m]))
   mapply(function(x, n) which(y == x)[n], x, n)
}

result - boxplot(Petal.Length ~ Species, iris)

[R] Floating point imprecision in sum() under R-2.3.1?

2006-08-18 Thread Brahm, David
After upgrading to R-2.3.1 on Linux Redhat, I was suprised by this:

R x - c(721.077, 592.291, 372.208, 381.182)
R sum(x) - 2066.758
   [1] 4.547474e-13

Now I understand that floating point arithmetic is not precise, but
1) the result is exactly 0 in R-2.2.1 (patched) on the same machine,
2) .Machine$double.eps = 2.2e-16, so the error seems quite large.

Also note I get the same result on R-2.3.1 under Windows, and that
R (721.077 + 592.291 + 372.208 + 381.182) - 2066.758
   [1] 0

Is this related to the (2.3.0) NEWS item:
  sum(), prod(), mean(), rowSums() and friends use a long double
  accumulator where available and so may be more accurate. 
and should I be concerned?  Thanks.

Re: [R] Query: how to modify the plot of acf

2006-08-18 Thread Matthias Braeunig
Hi Stefano,

the manual tells us that we can access components of an acf object
directly by acf.obj[.], but assignment ]- does not work this way.

One way of doing what you want is to assign NA to x$acf[x$lag==0] like so:

x - acf(runif(100))
x$acf[1] - NA
plot(x)

But I suppose what you actually want is to have a reasonable ylim to be
in effect when plotting your acf. I have struggled with this myself and
found the following solution:

In plot.acf the formula for the white noise confidence interval is
something along the lines of

acf.clim - function(x=stop(your acf), n=x$n.used, CL=.95)
{
cl = qnorm((1+CL)/2)/sqrt(n)
attr(cl,CL) - CL
return( cl)
}

Using this function you can plot
x - acf(runif(100),plot=F)
plot(x, ylim=2*acf.clim(x)*c(-1,1)) # adjust magnification as needed


As for your second question we first prevent plotting of x-axis and then
add our custom axis:

x - acf(runif(1000),100,plot=F)
plot(x, ylim=2*acf.clim(x)*c(-1,1),xaxt='n')# note option 'xaxt'!
axis(1,at=12*(0:8))

Hope that helps,

Matthias


NB: It would be a good idea to include the acf.clim(.) inside of the acf
object... Now it is somewhat hidden inside of plot.acf

x$clim - acf.clim(x)
str(x)





Stefano Sofia wrote:
 I need to modify the graph of the autocorrelation. I tried to do it through 
 plot.acf but with no success. 
 
 1. I would like to get rid of the lag zero
 2. I would like to have numbers on the x-axis only at lags 12, 24, 36, 48, 
 60, ...
 
 Could anybody help me in this?
 
 Any help will be appreciated

[R] Permutations with replacement

2006-08-18 Thread Jesse Albert Canchola
Is there a simple function or process that will create permutations with 
replacement? 

I know that using the combinat package

## begin R code ##
 library(combinat)
 m - t(array(unlist(permn(3)), dim = c(3, 6)))

# we can get the permutations, for example 3!=6
# gives us

 m
 [,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,]123
[2,]132
[3,]312
[4,]321
[5,]231
[6,]213
## end R code ##

I'd like to include the with replacement possibilities such as 

1,1,3
1,1,2
2,3,3

and so on.  This will eventually be done on 8!=40,320 rather than the 
development version using 3! as above.

If no function exists (I've Googled on CRAN with no palpable luck), then 
perhaps this is more of a bootstrap type problem. 

Thanks for your help in advance,
Jesse Canchola

Re: [R] Floating point imprecision in sum() under R-2.3.1?

2006-08-18 Thread Brahm, David
I was concerned by this result (new in R-2.3.1):
R x - c(721.077, 592.291, 372.208, 381.182)
R sum(x) - 2066.758
   [1] 4.547474e-13

But after Roger Peng's [EMAIL PROTECTED] insightful comment that the
relative difference (sum(x)/2066.758 - 1) is exactly what is expected,
I'm convinced that sum() is indeed really being more accurate than
it was in 2.2.1, i.e. accurately preserving the numerical imprecision
of the original inputs.  Sorry for the distraction...

[R] Permutations with replacement

2006-08-18 Thread Jesse Albert Canchola
Is there a simple function or process that will create a matrix of 
permutations with replacement? 

I know that using the combinat package

## begin R code ##
 library(combinat)
 m - t(array(unlist(permn(3)), dim = c(3, 6)))

# we can get the permutations, for example 3!=6
# gives us

 m
 [,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,]123
[2,]132
[3,]312
[4,]321
[5,]231
[6,]213
## end R code ##

I'd like to include the with replacement possibilities such as 

1,1,3
1,1,2
2,3,3

and so on.  This will eventually be done on 8!=40,320 rather than the 
development version using 3! as above.

If no function exists (I've Googled on CRAN with no palpable luck), then 
perhaps this is more of a bootstrap type problem. 

Thanks for your help in advance,
Jesse Canchola

[R] multivariate analysis by using lme

Dear R users,

 

I have a data structure as follows:

20 0.0014117 0  1  1  2  6

 

I would like to apply multivariate analysis and test interaction effect in
the same model by using lme function. The 'two' variable is a bi-variate
outcome by combining two continuous outcomes. The 'res1' and 'res2' are two
dummy variables to flag these two outcome variables, separately. The
interaction term for c1 and c2 is inter with 6 levels. What I have done
are as follows:

 

# capture clustering structure

 

tmp - groupedData(two~res1+res2+inter|id,data=a); tmp - na.exclude(tmp);

 

# treat 'inter' as a multi-level variable

 

options(contrasts=c(factor=contr.treatment,ordered=contr.poly));
tmp$inter - factor(tmp$inter); contrasts(tmp$inter)

 

# perform multivariate analysis and test interaction effect

 

m1 - summary(lme(two~res1+res2+inter, random=~1|id, data=tmp))

 

## Error in MEEM(object, conLin, control$niterEM) : 

##Singularity in backsolve at level 0, block 1

 

Unfortunately, I have been unable to get it work. If I removed these two
dummy variables like this:

 

m2 - summary(lme(two~inter, random=~1|id, data=tmp))

 

I did get some outputs, but these outputs in the model m2 were wrong. Is
there any way to perform multivariate analysis and test interaction effect
(a multi-level factor) in the same model by lme? In addition, can lme be
used for multivariate analyses of combining several binary outcome
variables? Or it may be doable in some R function?

 

Many thanks for your suggestions.

 

Hui-Ju

Re: [R] Permutations with replacement

2006-08-18 Thread davidr
If you also want 1,1,1 and so on, the number of these is n^n,
(n choices for each of n slots.)
In that case, you could use hcube from combinat.

[R] Affy: problems using neweS

2006-08-18 Thread John Tillinghast
At least for R 2.3.1, neweS requires that all of the variables have names
that correspond to the colnames of the matrix. That's fine, I know about
that, and I use a modified version of neweS that puts the names in there. It
works well with data from most sources.

However, we tried reading in the matrix from a text file, and again get an
error that says sampleNames differ from phenoData rows. What's going on?

Modified neweS:

neweS -
function(mat, vlist, vlabel=as.list(names(vlist))){
names(vlabel)=names(vlist)

#Must add appropriate names to the variables in vlist for R 2.3compatibility.
for (i in 1:length(vlist)) {
  names(vlist[[i]]) - colnames(mat)
}
###

pdata - new(phenoData, pData=as.data.frame(vlist), varLabels=vlabel)
eset - new(exprSet, exprs=as.matrix(mat), phenoData=pdata)
return(eset)
}

I believe this is identical to the existing neweS except for the part
between the #s.

We're stumped here, I'm grateful for any ideas!

Thanks
John Tillinghast

[R] list of lists to a data.frame

2006-08-18 Thread Rajarshi Guha
Hi, I have a situation where I have a list of lists. Each list can
contain elements of different types (but each one will be a scalar) say
of double, integer or character.

However the elements of each list are always in the same order:

x - list('a', 1, 2)
y - list('b', 3, 4)
z - list('c', 5, 6)

a - list(x,y,z)

What I'd like to do is to convert a to a data.frame.

Currently I am doing:

b - do.call(rbind, a)

However, when I do b[,1] I get a list returned rather than a vector of
characters and similarly for b[,2] and so on.

I am clearly missing something, but how do I convert the list of lists
to a data.frame where a column is represented as a vector rather than a
list?

Thanks,

How about:

 as.data.frame(sapply(a, rbind))
  V1 V2 V3
1  a  b  c
2  1  3  5
3  2  4  6

or:

 as.data.frame(t(sapply(a, rbind)))
  V1 V2 V3
1  a  1  2
2  b  3  4
3  c  5  6


depending upon how you wanted the columns versus rows to be structured.

HTH,

Re: [R] Boxplot Help

2006-08-18 Thread Gabor Grothendieck
In reviewing this I found an error in the case that there is an
outlier in one group with an equal value in another group that
is not an outlier.Also the iris example does not have duplicate
outliers so its not a very good test.  Here is a much shorter
version that does not have the cited problem.  Also we use
more suitable test data.

For each group, g, we find the indices in x, idx, of the values
corresponding to that group in out$out and then we use text()
to display those indices.  (Note that it will overprint indices
if there are multiple outliers with the same value in a group.
One could try jittering the x or y values in text to address
this.)

x - c(1:49, 100, 51:100, 101:148, 50, 50)
grp - gl(3, 50)
out - boxplot(x ~ grp)
for(g in unique(out$group)) {
   idx - which(x %in% out$out[out$group == g]  grp == g)
   text(g, x[idx], idx, pos = 4, col = 2, cex = .5)
}

 If the outliers can be non-unique then match is not enough.
 In that case assume that the nth occurrence of
 any value in result$out is also the nth occurrence in the
 vector boxplotted.  (Sort the data frame by group if that is
 not the case.)   This assumption is sufficient to allow us to write
 posof which gives the index into the data frame of any value in out.

 # determine position of x in y
