I'm running FreeBSD 7.1-PRERELEASE over Asus P5Q motherboard. Such board comes with an nic requiring age0 driver. When the nic is under load, such trasferring big amount of data over gigabit connection (let's say some gigabyte backups), the computer hangs, sometimes with panic, sometimes freezing. Before that i was using an Intel nic with em0 driver and 7.0-Stable#2.. and that

Hi all, The last e-mails about beginners gave me the courage to post a question; from a beginner's perspective, there are a lot of questions that I'm tempted to ask. But I'm trying to find the answers either in the documentation, either in the about 15 free books I have, either in the help archives (I often found many similar questions posted in the past). Being an (still actual)

Dear R-users When running a glm polynomial model with one explanatory variable (example Y~X+X^2), with a poisson or binomial error distribution, the predicted values obtained from using the predict() function and those obtained from using the coefficients from the summary table "as is" in an equation of the form Y=INTERCEPT+ XCoef x X + XCoef x X^2, differ considerably. The former are

I present you with a function that solves a problem that has bugged me for many years. I think the problem may be general enough to at least consider adding this function, or a revamped version of it, to the 'stats' package, with the other multinomial functions reside. I'm using R to export data to text files, which are input data for an external model written in C++. Parts of the

I am trying to make predictions with se's using a nlme (kew11.nlme below). I get an error indicating levels for a factor are not allowed. I have searched and read Rnews, MEMSS, MASS, R-Help, and other lists in Spanish where I found questions similar to mine but not solution. I do not really care about the method used. Any suggestions to obtain predictions with se's from an nlme

Dear All, I am estimating a Cox proportional hazard model, with several interactions of the type a*z + a*y + a*x + b*z + b*y + b*x. I need to know if the first three (the "a"s) are jointly significantly different from the last three (the "b"s). I have tried several approaches, but have been unsuccessful. Here's the model, and the code I came up with, with the obvious

R-helpers: Assume that I want to create a series of sequentially named R objects. For example, I might want to call these objects V1, V2, V3 ... V50. To do this, I thought of some sort of looping function like: input.value <- seq(1:50) * 3 for(i in 1:50){ paste("V", i, sep="") <- input.value[i] } Of course this loop will not work since the paste function

Attention R users, especially those that are experienced enough to be opinionated, I need your input. Consider the following simple plot: x <- rnorm(100) y <- rnorm(100) plot(x, y, bty='n') A colleague (and dreaded SAS user) commented that she thought that my plots could be "cleaned up" by connecting the X and Y axes. I know that I can do that with bty='l' but I

R plotting experts: I have a bivariate dataset composed of 300 (x,y) continuous datapoints. 297 of these points are located within the y range of [0,10], while 2 are located at 20 and one at 55. No coding errors, real outliers. When plotting these data with a scatterplot, I obviously have a problem. If I plot the full dataset with ylim = c(0,55), then I cannot see the structure in the data in

I am looking for a book that discusses the theory of multiple imputation (and other methods of dealing with missing data) and, just as importantly, how to implement these methods in R or S-Plus. Ideally, the book would have a structure similar to Faraway (Regression), Pinheiro&Bates (Mixed Effects) and Wood (GAMs) and would be very modern (i.e. published within the last couple of years).

Many medical journals and publishers require that images, whether photographs or line art, be submitted as high resolution .TIFF images. One option for R users is to produce an image in one format and to convert it to a .TIFF file using a second software program. My experience has been that this option often results in images of poorer quality, often with blurry contours, and a loss of

R-helpers: I am experiencing some odd behavior with the 'matrix' function that I have not experienced before and was wondering if there is something that I was missing in my code. --------------------------------- > sessionInfo() R version 2.6.1 (2007-11-26) i386-pc-mingw32 locale: LC_COLLATE=English_United States.1252;LC_CTYPE=English_United States.1252;LC_MONETARY=English_United

I am running R 2.3.1 on a Windows XP machine. I am trying to import some data into R that is stored as an S-Plus 7.0 .sdd file. When I run the following command, I get this error: > library(foreign) > d <- read.S(file='H:\\Research\\data.sdd') Error in read.S(file = "H:\\Research\\data.sdd") : not an S object The dataset is fairly large, roughly 13000 rows

R-Experts: I am using the vglm function of the VGAM library to perform proportional odds ordinal logistic regression. The issue that I would like help with concerns the format in which the response variable must be provided for this function to work correctly. Consider the following example: ------ library(VGAM) library(MASS) attach(pneumo) pneumo # Inspect the format of the original dataset

R-helpers: In the construction of control charts for statistical quality control objectives, one might choose to estimate the control limits for the mean using the mean range of the samples. This requires multiplying the mean range by a correction factor, often called "d2", that is tabulated in many books. The origin of "d2" seems to be table 2 of the following paper:

R-helpers, Below is a simple example of some output that I am getting while trying to work with a data frame in R 2.12.1 for Mac. ----- > testdat <- data.frame(matrix(ncol=10, nrow=10)) > colnames(testdat) <- c('a','b','c','d','e','f','g','h','i','j') > testdat[seq(1,10,3),] <-

Hi, The notch filter in AEC is only used to remove DC signal, and the time of convergence is not important, right? If so, I think preset value of notch_radius is too small, and it causes noticeable distortion(freq < 200hz cut). There is a picture in attachment to show signals under different radius in time-domain. By setting notch_radius to 0.999 for all sampling rates, I found better

Hi all, I've tried to find this in the mailing list, but to no avail. Im using the rip perl tool (rip.sourceforge.net) to encode using ogg vorbis. As far as I can tell, setting the quality AND making vorbis read from STDIN is causing a failure. The message reads in part "Opening with wav module: WAV file reader Mode initialisation failed: invalid parameters for quality"
