Hi! I have a dataset of the lifespans (birth/death date) of about 100,000 people. I also have the birth dates of about 1,000,000 people who are still alive. I also have other information for each of these people including faculty,state,year graduated etc. I would like to do some statistical analysis but since the data is factored i'm having trouble. I looked into using the SVM package to train and then predict lifespans but it assumes nonfactored data.
Any ideas? Rohan ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
