[R] Quantile regression questions

2006-10-26 Thread Brian Gardunia
I am relatively new to R, but am intrigued by its flexibility. I am interested in quantile regression and quantile estimation as regards to cotton fiber length distributions. The length distribution affects spinning and weaving properties, so it is desirable to select for certain distribution

Brian, It is hard to say at this level of resolution of the question, but it would seem that you might be able to start by considering each sample vector as as repeated measurement of the fiber length -- so 12 obs in the first 1/16th bin, 235 in the next and so forth, all associated with
