[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Chia C Chong) wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... I am using nonlinear regression method to find the best parameters for my data. I came across a term called runs test from the Internet. It mentioned that this is to determines whether my data is differ significantly from the equation model I select for the nonlinear regression. Can someone please let me know how should I perform the run tests?? You need to use a runs test that's adjusted for the dependence in the residuals. The usual runs test in the texts won't apply. Glen I always understood that the runs test was designed to detect systematic departures from the fitted line because some other curve fitted the data better. In this context, it is a test for dependence of residuals. There is a discussion of this at http://216.46.227.18/curvefit/systematic_deviation.htm Any elementary text in Non-parametric Methods in statistics will give an example. Well, the residuals are always *dependent*, to the extent of p/n (# variables divided by N). That is the Expectation. So they are *not* i.i.d, which is an assumption. Thus: the runs test is an approximation which is inadequate for large ratios of p/n -- It is nice for the stat-pack to explain the runs-test, but not-so-nice that it fails to mention the other detail. Draper and Smith's book on regression mention that the runs test will be approximate, since the expectation is not independent. You can also google-search on Durbin-Watson runs test, and click on the lectures ... or whatever appeals most to you. The D-W test is awkward enough to *test* that you don't wonder why people should look for an easier option. Several textbooks that I just looked at seem to be satisfied with recommending that you eye-ball your residuals in several plots - without doing tests. -- Rich Ulrich, [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pitt.edu/~wpilib/index.html = Instructions for joining and leaving this list and remarks about the problem of INAPPROPRIATE MESSAGES are available at http://jse.stat.ncsu.edu/ =

Re: Is this how you would have done it?

There were 10 choices on all but one ballot (i.e. local news, sports news, business news, etc.), and you had to rank those from 1 to 10 without duplicating any of your choices. One was their top pick, 10 their lowest. Only one ballot had more than 10 choices, because of the large number of local news stories you could choose from. I would have thought if you only had 10 choices and had to rank from 1 to 10, then you'd count up all the stories that got the readers' Number One vote and which ever story got the most Number One votes would have been declared the winner. [ ... ] I have read three good responses. I want to mention that what you describe is just like the polls used in college sports, where the coaches or media each vote (coaches do one poll; media do another) for Who is number 1.And they typically do report what you ask for, the number of #1 votes, in addition to the total (which does not have to agree). Thinking of other ratings with rankings: Is it Places rated almanac? - that annually lists numbers for 120 or 250 American cities. They do another simple averaging of ranks, across their 10 or so categories. I remember some public discussion of how arbitrary that was, and how it tends to reward 'consistent mediocrity.' (The first time they did this, Pittsburgh home was near the top, so I have noticed later discussion.) That discussion also pointed out that the results were *usually* not *greatly* different if you chose another weighting system. And the better advice was that any interested person should look at the separate categories, and choose the few that matter to themselves. -- Rich Ulrich, [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pitt.edu/~wpilib/index.html = Instructions for joining and leaving this list and remarks about the problem of INAPPROPRIATE MESSAGES are available at http://jse.stat.ncsu.edu/ =
Record Linkage Software
LinkageWiz is a Record Linkage program that makes it easy to link client records that exist in separate files or databases. It can also be used to identify duplicate records within client databases and mailing lists. Probabilistic linkage techniques are used to join the records, utilising common identifiers such as name, date of birth, sex, Social Security Card Number, Medicare number and others. Why re-invent the wheel and write your own program when LinkageWiz is available at a reasonable cost. If you write your own program you will need to consider the following factors, as well as allowing for data quality issues and non-human data: a.. The inconsistent use of spaces and quotes in surnames; b.. Misspelt surnames and first names; c.. Use of nick names and aliases; d.. Date of birth inaccuracy/estimation; e.. Inconsistent entry of first and middle names, particularly for clients of Asian origin; f.. Registration of babies (where the given names have not yet been assigned); g.. Lack of face-to-face verification of patient details within pathology laboratories; h.. Hyphenated surnames; and i.. Surname changes, particularly for women who have changed their marital status. LinkageWiz uses a sophisticated probabilistic linkage approach to match the highest number of records possible, whilst minimising the number of false matches.
