Determining model parameters
...uestion. If so, please bear with me.
If I have some data that based on the historgram and other plots it "looks" like a beta distribution. Is there a function or functions within R to help me determine the model parameters for such a distirbution? Similarily for other "common" distirbutions, Poisson(lambda), Chi-Square(degrees of freedom, chi-square statistic), etc. For a normal distribution it is relatively straight forward as mean and variance can be computed failrly readily.
So far in my reading such parameters are more or less given but to do any kind of inference using a prior mo...

Multivariate kernel density estimation
I would like to estimate a 95% highest density area for a multivariate
parameter space (In the context of anova). Unfortunately I have only
experience with univariate kernel density estimation, which is remarkebly
easier :)
Using Gibbs, i have sampled from a posterior distirbution of an Anova model
with k means (mu) and 1 common residual variance (s2). The means are
independent of eachother, but

Normality test
I am having a hard time interpreting the results of the 'shapiro.test' for normality. If I do ?shapiro.test I see two examples using rnorm and runif. When I run the test using rnorm I get a wide variation of results. Most of this may be from variability of rnorm, samll sample size (limited to 5000 for the test), etc but if I repeat the test multiple times I can get:

Value at Risk using a volatility model?
Hi,
I want to calculate the Value at Risk with using some distirbutions and a
volatility model.
I use the following data(http://uploadeasy.net/upload/cdm3n.rar) which are
losses (negative returns) of a company of approx. the last 10 years. So I
want to calculated the Value at Risk, this is nothing else than the
quantile. Since I have losses I consider the right tail of...

Vorbis licensing...
We spent a little time here taking a look at
the Vorbis licensing scheme and ran into some
possible issues. In particular, the Vorbis
FAQ page here says that the LGPL license applies
to Vorbis libraries and GPL applies to source
code (at least that's what I gather).

combined dependent pvalue
Dear All,
I am trying to combine dependent p-values in R. May you please help me with
this?
For independent pvalue combination, one of the popular way is fisher's
method which I found the R code here
(http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/fisher-s-posthock-test-or-fisher-s-combination-test-td2195964.html#a2305025):

local regression using loess
Hi, All,
I have a dataset with binary response ( 0 and 1) and some numerical
covariates. I know I can use logistic regression to fit the data. But I want
to consider more locally. So I am wondering how can I fit the data with
'loess' function in R? And what will be the response: 0/1 or the probability
in either group like in logistic regression?
Thank you,
Cindy

breaking multi-modal histograms down into combinations of unimodal distributions
Dear All,
Does anybody know if there is a functionality in R to break histograms
that show a clear bi-modal (or multi-modal) distribution into a series
of unimodal histograms that added up result in the original histogram?
I was thinking of using QQ-plots (for which tools are available in R),
and then observing the number of times the observed quantiles cross
the 1:1 line, but this only gives an

Temporal Analysis of variable x; How to select the outlier threshold in R?
For a financial data set with large variance, I'm trying to find the
outlier threshold of one variable "x" over a two year period. I
qqplot(x2001, x2002) and found a normal distribution. The latter part of
the normal distribution did not look linear though. Is there a suitable
method in R to find the outlier threshold of this variable from 2001 and
2002 in R?

Help with installing add-on packages
Dear R users.
Recently I wanted to update my R distribution to the current one (R-2.7.1). I am running a Fedora core 8 distirbution. The installation went fine, but when I tried to add some additional packages the majority made an exit with an error. Only a few least demanding (e.g. RColorBrewer) managed to get through the installation process.
What happened between the versions 2.6.x and 2.7.x

I Would Really Like to Try RoR but...
it''s been a nightmare trying to set it up. I keep getting a an
Application Error message when I try to navigate to a url which should
be taken care of by my newly created controllers. For instance, I
wanted to test RoR out so I created a MyTest controller which should
allow me to navigate something like:
