[R] plots: layout + subtitles

2006-10-16 Thread Marie-Pierre Sylvestre
Hello,

I want to create a figure that consists of a collection of 16 graphs on 
4 rows.  I am using

nf - layout(matrix(seq(1,16), 4,4, byrow=TRUE), respect=TRUE)
boxplot(...

to create the layout of my 16 graphs. It works really well. However, I'd 
like to add sub-titles that would apply to each row of 4 graphs. More 
specifically, I'd like to have something like:

subtitle 1 (centered)
graph 1 graph 2 graph 3 graph 4
subtitle 2 (centered)
graph 5 graph 6 graph 7 graph 8
subtitle 3 (centered)
graph 9 graph 10 graph 11 graph 12
subtitle 4 (centered)
graph 13 graph 14 graph 15 graph 16

in the same figure, to be saved as a ps file.

Can somebody help?
I hope this question is not redundant, but I have not found information 
on this on the R mailing lists.

I use R 2.3.1 on Linux FC5.

Thank you in advance.

[R] Changing axis labels in plots of zph objects (survival analysis)

2005-01-26 Thread Marie-Pierre Sylvestre
Hi,

I am using the Survival package, more precisely the cox.zph function, to plot 
log(Hazard rate) over time. 

if I type 

plot(temp.zph[2])

then I get the plot I want. However, I want to change the label of the y axis 
that cox.zph prints. 

plot(temp.zph[2],xlab='Days', ylab='log hazard for Fast recovery cluster')

then I get 

Error in plot.default(range(xx), yr, type = n, xlab = Time, ylab = 
ylab[i],: formal argument xlab matched by multiple actual arguments

I don't understand because these ylab and xlab commands usually do the job!

thanks in advance,

[R] function ms

2004-07-21 Thread Marie-Pierre Sylvestre
Dear R users,

I am using the MICE package. Specifically, at some point in my code I have

imp2=mice(PoptotalMICE,imputationMethod=logreg2)

And R returns... 
 
 iter imp variable
  1   1  MICEYError in logitreg(xobs, yobs, intercept=F) : 
couldn't find function ms

I have been looking for this ms function on the web, hoping it was just a matter of 
downloading a package. I didn't find anything.

I have tried getAnywhere without success.

What can it be? Where is the function ms?

Thanks

[R] Error: subscript out of bounds

2004-07-20 Thread Marie-Pierre Sylvestre
Hi

I am running a simulation that involves a loop calling three 2 functions that I have 
written. Everything works fine when the inside of the loop is performed up to 1000 
times (for (i in 1:750)). 

However, I sometimes get : ''Error: subscript out of bounds'' if I try to increase the 
loop 'size' to 1000. I am thinking it has to to with memory but I am not sure. I have 
increased my memory size to 512M but it does not solve my problem.

It would take to much place to copy and paste my code here. It would be helpful if you 
could tell me whether my problem may or may not be related to memory size.

Beside, what's the difference between

 Error: subscript out of bounds
 Error: subscript out of range  ?


Regards

M-P Sylvestre

[R] GLM for logistic regression and WEIGHTS

2004-03-28 Thread Marie-Pierre Sylvestre
Hi all,

I want to use weights for a logistic regression. In SAS, all I have to do is to 
specify my weight vector (they are fractions) and use proc logistic on my binary 
output.

When I tried to do the same in R, I got an error message because my weights were not 
integer. I understand that the weight option in R is to be used when the dependent 
variable is a proportion so that the weight is the total from which this proportion is 
derived. 

So what should I do if I want to use logistic regression but want to use weight to 
give more importance to certain observations (e.g. weight=0.87) and less to others 
(e.g. weight=.45) ? Should I reparametrize everything in terms of counts or is there 
an easier way out?

Thanks in advance
