Re: [R] ggplot2, building a simple formula interface

2009-12-29 Thread baptiste auguie
Hi,

Try print(p) instead of plot(p)

HTH,

baptiste

2009/12/29 Bryan Hanson han...@depauw.edu:
 I¹m trying to build a simple formula interface to work with a function using
 ggplot2. The following scheme ³works² up until the plot(p) request, at which
 point there are complaints about xlim¹s and a blank graphics window.
 Looking at str(p) I do see the limits are NULL, plus layer 1 claims to have
 an empty data frame (but df is reproduced correctly).  I'm sure I'm missing
 something really obvious; alas my ggplot2 book is at work and it's cold
 outside!


 simple - function(formula, data, ...){
 mf - model.frame(formula = formula, data = data)    }

 res - rnorm(100)
 f1 - rep(c(C, D, D, C), 25)
 f2 - rep(c(A, B), 50)
 mydata - data.frame(res, f1, f2)

 df - simple(~ res + f1, mydata)
 p - ggplot(df, aes(f1, res)) + geom_boxplot()
 plot(p)

 Thanks, Bryan

Re: [R] subsetting by groups, with conditions

Hi,

I think you can also use plyr for this,

dft - read.table(textConnection(P1idVeg1Veg2AreaPoly2   P2ID

 1   p   p   1   1
 1   p   p   1.5 2
 2   p   p   2   3
 2   p   h   3.5 4), header=T)

library(plyr)

ddply(dft, .(P1id), function(.df) {
  .ddf - subset(.df, as.character(Veg1)==as.character(Veg2))
  .ddf[which.max(.ddf$AreaPoly2), ]
})

HTH,

baptiste

2009/12/29 Seth W Bigelow sbige...@fs.fed.us:
 I have a data set similar to this:

 P1id    Veg1    Veg2    AreaPoly2       P2ID
 1       p       p       1               1
 1       p       p       1.5             2
 2       p       p       2               3
 2       p       h       3.5             4

 For each group of Poly1id records, I wish to output (subset) the record
 which has largest AreaPoly2 value, but only if Veg1=Veg2. For this
 example, the desired dataset would be

 P1id    Veg1    Veg2    AreaPoly2       P2ID
 1       p       p       1.5             2
 2       p       p       2               3

 Can anyone point me in the right direction on this?

[R] Histogram/BoxPlot Panel

2009-12-29 Thread Lorenzo Isella

Dear All,
I am given 15 different data sets and I would like to generate a panel
showing all of them.
Each dataset will be presented either as a boxplot or as a histogram.
There are several possible ways to achieve this (as far as I know)

(1) using plot and mfrow()
(2) using lattice
(3) using ggplot/ggplot2

I am not very experienced (to be euphemistic) about (2) and (3).
My question then is: how would you try to organize these 15
histograms/boxplots  into a single figure?
Can anyone provide me with a simple example (with artificial data) for
(2) and (3) (or point me to some targeted online resource)?
Any suggestion is welcome.
Many thanks

## loop over the list of datasets and plot each one

ggplot2 has a website with many examples,

Re: [R] Histogram/BoxPlot Panel

Hi:

To make a more legible ordering of the plots, it might be a good idea to
make m$L1 an
ordered factor rather than a character variable:

m$L1 - ordered(m$L1, levels = paste('dataset', 1:15, sep = ''))
# Lattice
bwplot(value ~ x | L1, data = m, as.table = TRUE)
# ggplot2
 ggplot(m)+
  geom_boxplot(mapping=aes(x, value))+
  facet_wrap(~L1)

Nice example!

[R] problem reading from serial connection since 2.10.0

2009-12-29 Thread Tom Gottfried
Dear list,

I have a balance connected to the serial port of a windows machine (COM1) and 
I read the text
output of the balance with

scan(COM1, what=character, sep=\n, n=1)

after calling the previous line I press the print key on the balance which 
triggers sending one line
of text to the serial connection and with R 2.9.2 I get something like

Read 1 item
+  32.004 mg

Now with R 2.10.1 (and previously with 2.10.0) I have to press the print key on 
the balance twice to
get the same result, thus apparently I have to send two lines of text to make 
scan() reading only
one. But this is only when reading from the serial port, not when reading from 
a text file on disk.
The same is true for 2.10.1 on Linux (I did not try 2.9.2 nor 2.10.0 on Linux).
I can't figure out from the documentation nor the NEWS whether something should 
be specified
differently when calling scan since 2.10.0. Any ideas what this behaviour comes 
from?

[R] how to append new data to saved data on disk efficiently

2009-12-29 Thread Hao Cen
Hi,

I currently combine multiple processed data (data frame) into a list and
save the list as .rda using the save command. When new data come, I load
the rda file, process the new data into a data frame, append the data
frame to the end of the list, and save the whole list to the disk. The
loading and saving steps are quite time consuming. Since I don't need to
change the old data in the list when new data come, I wonder if there is
an efficient way to update the rda efficiently, e.g. appending the new
data to the rda file directly without loading the whole rda file?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

thanks

[R] Weird keyboard/buffer issue using OSX Client

2009-12-29 Thread Neil Kodner
When using up-arrow to retrieve the last executed command, or browse my
history, each command becomes suffixed with a few lines worth of spaces.
 It's annoying having to backspace over this many spaces or manually move
the cursor to perform edits.  I'm currently using R 2.10.10 GUI 1.30 on Mac
OSX 10.6.

If I retrieve a command from my history using the history interface, the
spaces are included.

I dont remember the root cause of this-I don't think it was brought upon by
an upgrade.

Here are things I've done to try and troubleshoot:
reset all of the settings I could find from within R
delete my workspace
delete any hidden files
delete the command history file
delete my preferences
completely remove/uninstall R
upgrade from 32 to 64 bit R

somewhere along the lines I missed a preference or a hidden file.

Here's a screenshot showing the issue.  The screenshot was taken immediately
after pressing up-arrow.

Hopefully someone knows what to do about this.

I'm not sure how to answer your question ... are you asking how you
can explicitly tell the `svm` function to do classification vs.
regression? Or are you asking if classification is better suited for
your problem than regression?

Are you trying to predict a label or some range of real valued

Re: [R] how to append new data to saved data on disk efficiently

2009-12-29 Thread jim holtman
You can keep each dataframe as a separate file and process them that way.
You can look into storing in a relational database or using filehash.  It
all depends on how you want to process the data later.

 Hi,

 I currently combine multiple processed data (data frame) into a list and

 loading and saving steps are quite time consuming. Since I don't need to
 change the old data in the list when new data come, I wonder if there is
 an efficient way to update the rda efficiently, e.g. appending the new

 Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Re: [R] [BioC] make.cdf.package: Error: cannot allocate vector of size 1 Kb

2009-12-29 Thread James MacDonald
This problem may well be due to the repeated R_alloc calls, and might be 
fixable by refactoring the code, but I am not sure that is the answer here. 
This package is designed for the 3' biased arrays (and works well enough for 
them), and isn't intended to be used for the newer random primer arrays. The 
makecdfenv/affy packages have been supplanted by the pdInfoBuilder/oligo 
packages for the newer generation of arrays.

Crispin Miller's group was able to get makecdfenv to work by stripping out the 
background probes first, and have cdf packages available on their website if 
the end user insists on using affy for this array:

http://xmap.picr.man.ac.uk/download

which by the way appears to be down now.

Anyway, the supported methods of analyzing these chip types are listed in the 
workflows page

http://www.bioconductor.org/docs/workflows/oligoarrays/

and you will note that makecdfenv/affy is not one of them.

Best,

Jim

The reason is I think in the C-level implementation details. R_alloc is

[R] question on avoiding the use of loops when working with large multidimensional arrays

2009-12-29 Thread Cheney Shreve

Hi,

 I’m new to R and object-oriented programming. I work primarily with  
satellite datasets using IDL. I used IDL to ingest my data, run a  
spectral mixture algorithm and output a timeseries of a snow index in  
16-bit integer band interleaved by line format (for most of China). In  
R, I read in the timeseries using the caTools package and my goal is  
to figure out how to extract slices of my data cube (details on  
dimensions below) and apply functions written in R without the use of  
a loop. The code below is an example of what I’m doing now and I’m  
sure there must be a better way. Thank you in advance for your help,  
which is greatly appreciated. I have spent some time with the R help  
materials, but unfortunately the learning curve is still steep my  
first week into R.


# Reading in my data using caTools
mydata=read.ENVI(rsma_subset_3s.bil,headerfile=paste 
(rsma_subset_3s.bil,.hdr,sep=))

 dim(mydata)
[1]  37 103 208
 # my data is a 16-bit Integer in Band Interleaved by Line (bil)  
format
 # mydata [x,y,z] is latitude,longitude,value of an index per band  
(time)
 # what I want to do is create a ts object and run a function  
called bfast
 # on slices of the array without going through a loop because the  
actual size the of data

 # is [2400,1200,208] and looping takes a long time

 # The example loop below will run but takes a long time and I have  
numbers hardwired # in to loop over, which I’d like to avoid

 for (i in 1:37) {
+  for (j in 1:103)
+  # create ts object with proper time, frequency
+  slice - ts(mydata[i,j,1:208],start=c(2000,4),end=c 
(2009,4),frequency=23);

+  fit - bfast(slice,h=0.15,max.iter=1);
+  plot(fit) # just plotting to see if it’s working, but I will  
actually be extracting

+ # variables out of  ‘fit’
+ }
}
# I would also like to replace the numeric values of columns, rows,  
bands using
# “length” so that in the future, I don’t have numbers hardwired in  
but I don’t think I’m
# doing this correctly for a multidimensional array. Can the  
“dimnames” be used as an

# alternate to do this?


Kind regards,
Cheney

[R] Problems when using lag() in plm package

2009-12-29 Thread Magnus Torfason

Hi,

I've been trying out the plm package, which seems like a great boon to 
those who want to analyze panel data in R. I haven't started to use the 
estimation functions themselves - for now I am just interested in having 
a robust way to deal with lags in unbalanced panel data, since it is 
such a royal pain to deal with all the special cases.


However, In my tests, I found behavior that seems strange at a minimum, 
and potentially a bug, and I would like to understand it better. I 
demonstrate these using an example, which I include below.


Basically, I want the function to deal correctly with a panel that 
contains a unit (unit 1 in the example), that has a gap (missing entry 
for a particular point in time (year 4 in the example)).


What the example demonstrates is that the outcome when the unit 1 
observations are lagged is different based on whether year 4 is present 
in the observations on *unit 2*.


If year 4 is present for unit 2, the lagged pseries is suitable for 
binding to the original data frame, with missing values at the correct 
locations. The names() for the lagged series are incorrect, but I don't 
really care about them. So this is basically the behavior I had hoped to 
see.


However, if year 4 is not present in unit2, the gap is not detected. A 
cbind() with the original series is now incorrect data, although the 
names() of the lagged series could now be interpreted as correct in the 
strictest sense. However, if this is the expected behavior, that means 
that all estimation functions will have to examine the names() of each 
series, which seems like a lot of work.


My question then is: How should I interpret these results? Are gaps in 
the data disallowed? And if so, should the creation of a pdata.frame 
with gaps result in an error?



MY EXAMPLE FOLLOWS:

 # Construct pdata.frame with gap in unit 1, at year 4
 pdu - pdata.frame(
+ data.frame(
+ i=c(rep(1,6),rep(2,3)),
+ t=c(1:3,5:7,2:4),
+ x=1:9
+ )
+ )
 # Using cbind() to view the series with its lagged
 # counterpart produces the expected result
 cbind( pdu$i, pdu$t, pdu$x , lag(pdu$x))

1-5154   NA
1-61654
1-71765
2-2227   NA
2-32387

 # The labels of the lagged series do not seem correct
 # (the second NA should be labeled as 1-4, not as 1-3),
 lag(pdu$x)
1-1 1-2 1-3 1-5 1-6 1-7 2-2 2-3
 NA   1   2  NA   4   5  NA   7   8
attr(,class)
[1] integer

 # Again, construct pdata.frame with (the same) gap in
 # unit 1, but now, that time observation (4), is
 # not present in unit 2 either
 pdu - pdata.frame(
+ data.frame(
+ i=c(rep(1,6),rep(2,3)),
+ t=c(1:3,5:7,1:3),
+ x=1:9
+ )
+ )
 # Now the cbin() of the two series seems wrong

Indeed ^ is the preferred exponentiation operator, but ** has 'always'

 ‘**’ is translated in the parser to ‘^’, but this was undocumented

I think you need to tell us what is wrong with what you get from that. 
When I look at the result:


 cat(paste(variable, 1), \n)
variable 1

I see no quotation marks.  (If you use print() you'll see some, but they

[R] apply a function over a factor

2009-12-29 Thread faridamsb
Dear R experts,

I would like to substitute the values of a vector, say A, with the average  
values taken over a factor

For example, lets assume


A

[1] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

B

[1] 1 2 2 4 4 4 7 7 7 7
Levels: 1 2 4 7

I need to have

1.0 2.5 2.5 5.0 5.0 5.0 8.5 8.5 8.5 8.5 8.5

Thank you

Re: [R] Remove double quotation marks

Thank you for your reply. But in the following case, “cat()” or “print()”
doesn’t work.

data.frame(cbind(variable 1, variable 2, cat(paste(variable, x), \n))),
where x is a random number generated by other R script.

 I think you need to tell us what is wrong with what you get from that. 
 When I look at the result:
 
   cat(paste(variable, 1), \n)
 variable 1
 
 I see no quotation marks.  (If you use print() you'll see some, but they 
 aren't part of the string, they are just used in the default display by

[R] extract value from first column based on value in second column

2009-12-29 Thread Wade Wall
Hi all,

I have two columns of data, the first consists of parameter estimates and
the second probability estimates.  I would like to extract the value from
the first column based on the max value of column two, but not sure how to
do this other than by extracting the value and then manually finding the
value in the first column.  Anyone know how to do this?  Basically, I need
to find the row number for the maximum in column two and use that value to
extract the value at the same row number in column one.

Thanks for any help,

Wade

 Yes, because you are Doing It Wrong. If you have data that is indexed
by an integer, don't store it in variables called variable1, variable2
etc, because very soon you will be posting a message to R-help that is
covered in the R FAQ...

 Store it in a list:

 v = list()
 v[[1]] = c(1,2,3,4,5)
 v[[2]] = c(4,5,6,7,8,9,9,9)

then you can do v[[i]] for integer values of i.

If you really really must get values of variable by name, perhaps
because someone has given you a data file with variables called
variable1 to variable99, then use the paste() construction together
with the 'get' function:

[ not tested, but should work ]

  v1=99
  v2=102
  i=2
  get(paste(v,i,sep=))
 [1] 102

[R] (no subject)

2009-12-29 Thread Hao Cen
Hi,

I wonder how to pass several functions and their arguments as arguments to
a function. For example, the main function is

f = function(X  ) {
   process(X)
   ...


process(X)
}

I have a few functions that operate on X, e.g. g1(X, par1), g2(X, par2),
g3(X, par3).  par1, par2 and par3 are parameters and of different types.

Try the following:

?round

(Note: and look in the Details section).

as.numeric(116.28135)

Set options(digits=8) and do the print again.

R is not truncating; it is following certain rounding rules on printing the
number given the required
numbers of digits to show.

Could you just transpose the matrix?

Otherwise you can write a simple function that should work.
Try this

-(mat1 - matrix(c(1, 2, 3, NA, 10, 2, NA, 8, 9, NA),nrow=2))

gl - function(x)length(x[!is.na(x)]

apply(mat1, 1, gl)

Re: [R] Remove double quotation marks

2009-12-29 Thread Nutter, Benjamin
It seems from your example that you're assuming all of the vectors have
the same length.  If this is the case, then a data.frame might be your
friend.

 df - data.frame(
v1 = c(0, 1, 0),
v2 = c(1, 1, 0),
v3 = c(2, 1, 2),
v4 = c(2, 2, 1),
v5 = c(0, 1, 1) )

 x - 5

 get.var - c(v1, v2, paste(v, x, sep=))

 df[, get.var]

Or, if you know your variables in the data.frame will be named
sequentially

 df[, c(1, 2, x)]

Subject: Re: [R] Remove double quotation marks


Thank you for your help. But here I just want to combine some vectors by
column based on the numbers determined by other R script. 

For example, I have five vectors:

v1 - c(0, 1, 0)
v2 - c(1, 1, 0)
v3 - c(2, 1, 2)
v4 - c(2, 2, 1)
v5 - c(0, 1, 1)

If I am going to combine the first two vectors, and one more other
vector determined by my other R script, say, vector 5.  Then my R script
is

x - 5
cbind(v1, v2, paste(v, x, sep = ))

The output is

 v1  v2  
[1,] 0 1 v5
[2,] 1 1 v5
[3,] 0 0 v5

This is not what I want. I want to get this:

 v1  v2  v5 
[1,]  0   1   0
[2,]  1   1   1
[3,]  0   0   1

Can you give me further suggestions or comments? Thanks a lot.

  Yes, because you are Doing It Wrong. If you have data that is indexed

 etc, because very soon you will be posting a message to R-help that is

 covered in the R FAQ...
 
  Store it in a list:

  v[[1]] = c(1,2,3,4,5)
  v[[2]] = c(4,5,6,7,8,9,9,9)
 
 then you can do v[[i]] for integer values of i.
 
 If you really really must get values of variable by name, perhaps 
 because someone has given you a data file with variables called
 variable1 to variable99, then use the paste() construction together 
 with the 'get' function:

[R] Effect of na.omit()

 Thanks,

Because the numbers which are displayed at the left of the rows
are not the row numbers of the structure being displayed, but
they are in fact row *names*!

These are so assigned (by default) when the dataframe is created.
Example:

  DF - data.frame(col1=c(1,2,3,4),col2=c(2,3,4,5),col3=c(3,4,5,6))
  DF
  #   col1 col2 col3
  # 1123
  # 2234
  # 3345
  # 4456
  row.names(DF)
  # [1] 1 2 3 4

  DF[c(1,3,4),]
  #   col1 col2 col3
  # 1123
  # 3345
  # 4456

  row.names(DF) - c(A,B,C,D)
  DF
  #   col1 col2 col3
  # A123
  # B234
  # C345
  # D456

  DF[c(1,3,4),]
  #   col1 col2 col3
  # A123
  # C345
  # D456

So the (1,2,3,4) row-names - (1,3,4) are treated exactly like
the row-names (A,B,C,D) - (A,C,D).

If you want to re-number the rows after eliminating some rows
(with na.omit) then you could do

row.names(fri) - (1:nrow(fri))

Example:

  DF1 -  DF[c(1,3,4),]
  DF1
  #   col1 col2 col3
  # A123
  # C345
  # D456
  row.names(DF1) - (1:nrow(DF1))
  DF1
  #   col1 col2 col3
  # 1123
  # 2345
  # 3456

However, often it is very useful to keeep the original numbering
(i.e. the numerical row-names), since this is then a record of
which rows in the dataframe got used. For example, in a regression
with some missing data coded as NA, the model-matrix will retain
the original numbering, so yhou can identify which cases (rows)
got used by looking at the row.names() of the model matrix.

Since these are returned as numeric values, the result can be used
as an index into the original dataset.

Hoping this helps,
Ted.

From 30/12-2009 at 15.30 untill 31/12-2009 at 08.00, ALL IT services at 
SUND-IT will be shut down!


ALL forms of electronic communication will be affected at SUND; VPN, 
Webmail, Mail, Print, Network drives, Servers ie.
Furthermore, Panum, CSS, Teilum, Museion and Biocenteret will have no 
access to the Internet.


The time of restoration of normal IT services, will be updated at 
http://it.sund.ku.dk the 30. December at 20.00 and 22.00.


This is a planned upgrade of firewalls, which can’t be implemented 
without impacting IT services.


(Timings are CET)

Apart from my personal activities (mail and remote access to servers and 
desktop systems), this is also going to block access to 
bugs.r-project.org. Hopefully, things will return to normal afterwards.

 I just noticed (the hard way of course) that when a query returns 0

 I believe that the second query should return a 0x2 data.frame instead,

I agree that keeping the column dimension is sensible.  I will see

 Any thoughts? Is this a bug, and are the developers of RSQLite

 f - function(X, f1, f2, f3, par1, par2, par3) { process1(X) f1(X, par1)
 f2(X, par2) f3(X, par3) process2(X) }


 and call it as

 f(X, g1, g2, g3, par1, par2, par3)

 If you don't know how many functions there will be, put them in a list:


 f - function(X, fs, pars) { process1(X) for (i in 1:length(fs))
 fs[[i]](pars[[i]]) process2(X) }


 and call it as

 f(X, list(g1, g2, g3), list(par1, par2, par3))

 Duncan Murdoch



 f = function(X  ) { process1(X) g1(X, par1) g2(X, par2) g3(X, par3)
 process2(X) }


 If I pass g2(X, par2),g3(X, par3), g1(X, par1) to f, I would expect to
 get the effect of f = function(X  ) { process1(X) g2(X, par2) g3(X, par3)
 g1(X, par1) process2(X) }


 Appreciate any suggestions.

[R] plotting circles with symbols()

2009-12-29 Thread eariasca

Hello,

I am not able to plot a circle of a given radius using symbols().  In  
the example below, the circle appears too large:


plot(0, 0, xlim = c(-1, 1), ylim = c(-1, 1))
symbols(0, 0, circles = 1, inches = FALSE, add = TRUE)

What's happening?

pars could be a list of lists of parameters instead of a list of

do.call(fs[[i]], pars[[i]])

But it's very unlikely that you are doing something that's a good idea.

[R] test of proportions

2009-12-29 Thread Roslina Zakaria
Hi r-users,
 
I would like to use prop.test code and I also calculate manually to test the 
proportions for 2 groups.  The problem is the answer for the p-value calculated 
manually are different from prop.test.  Here are the results:
 
## Manually
 
z value: z= (phat-p)/sqrt(pq/n) = (.084-.081)/sqrt(.081(1-.081)/691)=0.289, 
pvalue=0.7718
 

## Using prop.test code 
 low - c(56,58)
 tot - c(691,691)
 prop.test(low, tot, p = c(56/691,58/691), alternative = two.sided, 
 conf.level = 0.95, correct = TRUE)
    2-sample test for given proportions with continuity correction
data:  low out of tot, null probabilities c(56/691, 58/691) 
X-squared = 0.0096, df = 2, p-value = 0.9952
alternative hypothesis: two.sided 
null values:
    prop 1 prop 2 
0.08104197 0.08393632 
sample estimates:
    prop 1 prop 2 
0.08104197 0.08393632

Re: [R] plotting circles with symbols()

2009-12-29 Thread Peter Ehlers

The circle is not too large; it just uses your x-units for the
radius and your plotting region isn't square.
Here are some things to try:

plot(0, 0, xlim = c(-1, 1), ylim = c(-1, 1))
symbols(0, 0, circles = 1, inches = FALSE, add = TRUE)
abline(v = c(-1,1)) # shows that x-units 'fit'
abline(h = c(-1,1)) # shows that y-units don't fit

par(pty = s) # set up square plot
plot(0, 0, xlim = c(-1, 1), ylim = c(-1, 1))
symbols(0, 0, circles = 1, inches = FALSE, add = TRUE)

# set the y/x-aspect (see ?plot.window)
plot(0, 0, xlim = c(-1, 1), ylim = c(-1, 1), asp = 1)
symbols(0, 0, circles = 1, inches = FALSE, add = TRUE)

Re: [R] test of proportions

2009-12-29 Thread Peter Ehlers

You need to learn how to use prop.test properly.
Is this a ONE-sample test or TWO-sample test?

Perhaps this will help:

#hand calculation
phat - 58/691
p - 56/691
q - 1-p
n - 691
z - (phat-p)/sqrt(p*q/n)
z
[1] 0.2787970
pnorm(-z)*2
[1] 0.7804006

#prop.test
prop.test(x=58, n=691, p=56/691, correct = FALSE)

1-sample proportions test without continuity correction

data:  58 out of 691, null probability 56/691
X-squared = 0.0777, df = 1, p-value = 0.7804
alternative hypothesis: true p is not equal to 0.08104197

No it isn't! As someone phrased it recently, there's a difference

Options(digits) is set to 7.


So numbers are _printed_ to 7-digit accuracy, yes. (And 116.28125 has 8

Can anyone shed some light on this?


Subtract 116, and enlightenment should follow.

 Are you trying to predict a label or some range of real valued

[R] Factor and Level Issue

2009-12-29 Thread Vishal Thapar
Dear useR's

I have a small basic problem which I am hoping to get some help with. I have
a data frame, testSeq_df, with 1 row and 500 columns. Each column is a
character (a,c,g or t). I want this sequence to have 4 factors (a,c,g,t).
When I try the following:

for(i in 1:500){
if (length(levels(testSeq_df[,i]))==1)
levels(testSeq_df[,i]) - c(a=a,g=g,c=c,t=t)}

it replaces all the values in the sequence with a only. So all columns
become a. How do I fix this so that the columns retain their original
values but still have 4 levels ie. a,c,g,t.

Thanks a lot for your help,

Vishal

 $ V9   : Factor w/ 3 levels a,c,t: 2 1 2 1 3 2 3 2 3 1 ...
 $ V26  : Factor w/ 3 levels a,g,t: 2 1 1 1 1 3 1 3 1 3 ...
 ...and about 10 more...

 So I think you were closer but not quite there yet.
  for(i in 11:501){if (length(levels(testSeq_df[,i])) == 3)
levels(testSeq_df[,i])- c(a=a,g=g,c=c,c=t)}


  predict(mars500_1,testSeq_df)
  [1] - - - - + - + - - - - + + + - - - - - +
 Levels: - +

 YES, it WAS (and still is) a factor issue. You were shown how to look at
 objects with str. Why have you not adopted the practice?

Re: [R] Factor and Level Issue

2009-12-29 Thread Vishal Thapar
Please ignore my message. I figured it out myself.

The way to do it is:

levels(testSeq_df[,i]) - list(a=c('a'),c=c('c'),g=('g'),t=c('t'))

Thanks,

vishal

[R] rJava on Linux

2009-12-29 Thread Ameeta Agrawal
Hi,
I seem to have to some problem using the rJava package. Any help is appreciated.

I have a sample java file Hello.java
public class Hello
{
public String sayHello()
{
String result=new String(Hell);
return result;
}
public static void main(String[] args)
{
}
}



and these are the commands I use on R:

install.packages(rJava)
library('rJava')
.jinit()
h-(java/lang/String,Hello)
.jcall(h,S,sayHello)

Error in .jcall(h1, S, sayHello) :  method sayHello with signature
()Ljava/lang/String; not found



Could someone point me in the right direction please? Thanks.
PurpleSnow

Re: [R] svm regression/classification

2009-12-29 Thread Steve Lianoglou
Hi Nancy,

2009/12/30 Nancy Adam nancyada...@hotmail.com:
 Hi steve,

 Thank you so much for your reply.

 I’m asking about the difference between two cases:

 1) when I use svm in a regression system and

 2) when I use svm in a classification system.

  Is the code of using svm in these two cases the same?

Getting the `svm` function to perform classification vs. regression
can be controlled by setting its `type` parameter. The help page for
the function ?svm suggests that this is automatically picked depending
on what type of element your y vector is, eg. it defaults to
classification if your `y` is a vector of factors.

That having been said, you can set this parameter explicitly so that
you're sure of what the function is doing, eg:

## classification:
mymodel - svm(myformula, data=mydata, type='C-classification')

## regression
mymodel - svm(myformula, data=mydata, type='eps-regression')

 This is the code for a regression system:

 my_svm_model - function(myformula, mydata, mytestdata)

     {

   mymodel - svm(myformula, data=mydata)

     mytest - predict(mymodel, mytestdata)

     error - mytest - mytestdata[,1]

     -sqrt(mean(error**2))

     }

That's not really code for a regression system -- as I said above,
performing regression vs. classification depends on what type of
vector your `y` labels turns out to be, given your formula (unless you
explicitly set type='something').

It looks like your `my_svm_model` is a function that calculates (the
negative of) the root-mean-squared-error (why negative, btw?). This
performance calculation is appropriate for regression, but not for
classification. For classification you probably want to report the
accuracy of the labels, eg something like:

mytest - predict(mymodel, mytestdata, type='C-classification')
accuracy - sum(mytest == mytestdata[,1]) / length(mytest)

As I said in my earlier email, it's not really appropriate to try,
say, regression and report accuracy like as its defined for
classification.

I'm not sure if I'm answering your question, partly because I'm not
really sure what you're really asking, ie. I'm not sure if you're
confused as to whether or not you should be doing classification or
regression, or do you know which of the two you want to do but you
don't understand how to get `svm` to perform the one you want?

Please clarify the above point if you still need more help.

Hope that helps,
-steve

 No it isn't! As someone phrased it recently, there's a difference 
 between an object and the display of an object. Ceci n'est pas une pipe.
 
 Options(digits) is set to 7.
 
 So numbers are _printed_ to 7-digit accuracy, yes. (And 116.28125 has 8 
 digits.)
 
 Can anyone shed some light on this?
 
 Subtract 116, and enlightenment should follow.
 
 
 Thanks!
