[R] Migrating .RData from Windows to Linux?

2007-02-16 Thread Derek Eder
I want to begin a migration of R workspaces from Windows to Ubuntu Linux.

(1)  Can someone suggest the most appropriate path?
  dump()  ?
  save()  ?

(2)  Are there any R platform migration related resources out there?
  (I have not found any yet).

Thank you,

[R] Lattice / Trellis analog of axis(graphics) ?

2007-01-03 Thread Derek Eder
My question is so basic that I am (almost too) embarrassed to admit that 
I could not find an answer after an hour's worth of homework.

What is the Trellis / Lattice analog for the axis(graphics) function 
that enables the creation of axes in locations other than the default 
(i.e., bottom for X axis and right for Y axis) ?

For example when plotting mileage against weight (in American units), 
one might want to also include a second X axis on the top margin (e.g., 
axis() pos = 3) with fuel mileage in metric units.

xyplot(Mileage ˜ Weight, data = fuel.frame)


Thank you,

humbly yours,

Derek Eder

[R] POSIX and summer savings time redux

2006-12-07 Thread Derek Eder
When I tried Professor Ripley's example (below), the tz argument 
failed to adjust clock time from UTC.

  (z - ISOdatetime(1970,1,1,0,0,0, tz=UTC)+1165398135729/1000)
[1] 2006-12-06 09:42:15 UTC


  format(z, %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%OS3,tz = CET)
[1] 2006-12-06 09:42:15.729
# expected CET (Central European Time) clock time is UTC + 1 hour time 
zone adjustment


Am I running into platform dependencies?

 But it is the wrong answer, and not what my system gives.

 Now, this time stamp actually happened at local (Swedish) time one
 hour later (10:42).

 So you need to tell R that it was in UTC, which is what the 'tz' 
 argument is for:

 (z - ISOdatetime(1970,1,1,0,0,0, tz=UTC)+1165398135729/1000)
 [1] 2006-12-06 09:42:15 UTC
 format(z, %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%OS3, tz=CET)
 [1] 2006-12-06 10:42:15.729

 Regarding summer/winter adjustments in time (spring forward, fall
 back):   Is there a way of automatically recovering the local time
 adjustments for a given date?  E.g., a date/time in springtime = GMT +2
 , else GMT +1

 Is the above not enough?  You can unpick it if you want to get the shift.

[R] Time conversion from Win32 64bit FILETIME?

2006-10-19 Thread Derek Eder
Windows-32 has a time structure called FILETIME, a 64-bit value 
representing the number of 100-nanosecond intervals since January 1, 
1601 (UTC).   That is not a typo, the year is 1601. 

Does anyone have a clue(or algorhithm)for how this is converted to 
something a little more POSIX-like ?

Thank you,

Derek

[R] rendering date/times from 64bit julian format?

2006-10-04 Thread Derek Eder
Hellos,

I have date/times in 64-bit Julian format, that is the number of 
milliseconds since 1 jan 1970 (or something like that).E.g.,   
1159884877406

For the life of me I can't figure out how to render these in a more 
readable format, e.g.,  2006-10-04  23:12:93.191  (and I have tried to 
do my best searching the archives and help etc ...)


Thank you most sincerely,

Derek Eder

[R] COX PH models for event histories?

2003-06-11 Thread Derek Eder
This is a question about the use of the Cox proportional hazards model to analyze 
event histories.

I am looking at the responses of sympathetic nervous system activity to a stimulus.  
The activity I observe is a burst that can only occur once per heart beat cycle (e.g., 
a binary count).  Typically bursts occur in 60-80% of the heart cycles * sensory 
stimuli can modify these burst probabilities.

I give 48 stimuli-trials at random intervals and count the number of bursts associated 
with the stimuli.  For example, a person with 75% burst probability at rest (e.g., 
36/48) may have an stimulation induced increase to 87.5% (42 bursts in 48 trials).  
There are 14 subjects in each of 3 different patient groups.  Simple enough.

But what if the stimulus reactions are modified over time?  The surprise of the 
stimulus (electric shock) soon wears off and the responses (e.g., increased burst 
probability) diminish over the trials.

Intuition tells me that the Cox proportional hazard model cast as in Anderson-Gill 
counting formulation is a useful tool too look for possible changes in burst 
occurrence probability across time (48 trials).  Can one assume that non-uniform burst 
probabilities would manifest in the cox.zph tests of proportionality of hazards?  I 
also plotted the Cox model along with a Cox model of a surrogate data set, formulated 
by randomizing the trial times (e.g., removing any temporal dependencies) Am I on the 
right track?   



Thank you


Derek Eder


Oh yes, the relevance of this question to R ... u.  Yes, what is the assignment 
operator in R? (Just kidding).
