p-values for the dip test
Hi all, I am using Hartigan & Hartigan's [1] "dip test" of unimodality via the diptest package in R. The function dip() returns the value of the test statistic but I am having problems calculating the p-value associated with that value. I'm hoping someone here is familiar with this process and can explain it. In the original article there is an example using n=63 and a

Hartigan's Dip test
Hi, I just got a value for the dip test out of my data of 0.074 for a sample size of 33. I'm trying to work out what this actually means though? Could someone help me relate this to a p-value? Thanks James

Duda sobre modas en un distribución
Hola a tod en s, estoy intentando averiguar el número de modas en una distribución. Para ello utilizo diptest. Mi duda es que no acabo de entender cuando la información suministrada por los test suponen la existencia o no de unimodalidad/multimodalidad. Una parte de la salidad de diptest es la que pego a continuación (el resto esta en el fichero adjunto con las distribuciones kernels y las

testing for bimodal distribution
I'm not sure where to begin with this, but I was wondering if someone could refer me to an R package that would test to see if a distribution fits a bimodal distribution better than a unimodal distribution. Thanks, Andrew [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Help Transforming sums into observations
I need to measure kurtosis, skew, and maybe dip test on some distributions I have. Currently my data is in the form of 2 vectors x and y. Where x is 10 bins and y is the number of observations found in that bin. It seems that the measures I want to run require the actual observations laid out rather than already summed like I have them. Any suggestions on how to transform the data automatically? I

Is there a way to print branch distances for hclust function?
The R function hclust is used to do cluster analysis, but based on R help I see no way to print the actual fusion distances (that is, the vertical distances for each connected branch pairs seen in the cluster dendrogram). Any ideas? I'd like to use them test for significant differences from the mean fusion distance (i.e. The Best Cut Test). To perform a cluster analysis I'm using: x

unimodality test
Dear R users, I am interested in uni- bi- multimodality tests, for analysing reaction times data. I was lead to Hartigan's dip test (Ann. Statistics, 13, 1985, pp. 70-84, Applied Statistics, 34, 1985, 320-325). Not being a programmer I am unable to translate the Fortran code given in ref. 2 into a R function. I'd be glad to learn that someone already did it, or has devised a better

Help understanding cutree used for Dunn Index
Basic question: Is it correct to assume that when using cutree to set the # clusters (say k=4), cutree determines the clusters by the largest distances among all potential clusters? I've read the R help for cutree and am using it to define the number of groups to obtain Dunn Index scores (using clValid library) for cluster analysis (using Euclidean Distance and Ward's method) More

Kolmogorov Smirnov Test
I'm using ks.test (mydata, dnorm) on my data. I know some of my different variable samples (mydata1, mydata2, etc) must be normally distributed but the p value is always < 2.0^-16 (the 2.0 can change but not the exponent). I want to test mydata against a normal distribution. What could I be doing wrong? I tried instead using rnorm to create a normal distribution: y = rnorm

Help with normal distributions
Hi I have two questions, the first perhaps dumber than the second. Firstly, I have a data set, and when I plot a histogram it looks like a normal distribution. So I want to overlay a bell-shaped normal distribution on top of it, to demonstrate how similar it is to the normal distribution. I have read the help on dnorm(), rnorm(), pnorm() etc but still can't figure out how to plot a normal

Modality Test
Dear Readers: I have two issues in nonparametric statistical analysis that i need help: First, does R have a package that can implement the multimodality test, e.g., the Silverman test, DIP test, MAP test or Runt test. I have seen an earlier thread (sometime in 2003) where someone was trying to write a code for the Silverman test of multimodality. Is there any other tests that can enable me to

Scatterplot with the 3rd dimension = color?

about clustering method
Hi there, I'm doing some clustering analysis and try to find all the algorithms related to clustering in R. Here is the list of the algorithms I found. But I'm not sure if It's the complete list. Could you please check it and see if there're other ones? Thank you very much! P.S.: List of the algorithms related to clustering: (1) Hierarchical methods hclust

Two way joining vs heatmap
Hi STATISTICA has a function called "Two-way joining" (see http://www.statsoft.com/TEXTBOOK/stcluan.html#twotwo) and the reference material states that this is based on the method as published by Hartigan (found this paper: http://www.jstor.org/pss/2284710 through wikipedia). What is the relationship (if any) between the "heatmap" function in R and this technique? Is there an
