Re: [Rd] partial correlation function for multivariate time series

2007-09-14 Thread Simone Giannerini
Dear Paul, there is no mention to the pacf in the multivariate setting in the book you suggested. As I mentioned in private I suspect that pacf() in the multivariate case computes the partial autoregression matrix (in the terminology of Reinsel) rather than the partial autocorrelation matrix as

[Rd] Reciprocal Mill's Ratio

2007-09-14 Thread maj
I believe that this may be more appropriate here in r-devel than in r-help. The normal hazard function, or reciprocal Mill's Ratio, may be obtained in R as dnorm(z)/(1 - pnorm(z)) or, better, as dnorm(z)/pnorm(-z) for small values of z. The latter formula breaks dowm numerically for me (running R

Stéphane, the problem is that your compiler doesn't work (as the message clearly tells you). You must have working compiler (and other development tools) before you try compiling R. I have no clue how you managed to get such a broken compiler, because Debian comes with a complete, working

I wrote the date package long ago, and it has been useful. In my current task of reunifying the R (Tom Lumley) and Splus (me) code trees for survival, I'm removing the explicit dependence on 'date' objects from the expected survival routines so that they better integrate. Comparison of

A fourth approach would be the proto package. It provides a thin layer over environments making use of the prototype (aka object-based) style of programming which is fundamental different relative to class-based programming (although it is powerful enough to encompass class based programming).
