power and sample size for a GLM with poisson response variable
Hi all, I would like to estimate power and necessary sample size for a GLM with a response variable that has a poisson distribution. Do you have any suggestions for how I can do this in R? Thank you for your help. Sincerely, Craig -- Craig A. Faulhaber Department of Forest, Range, and Wildlife Sciences Utah State University 5230 Old Main Hill Logan, UT 84322 (435)797-3892

power and sample size for a GLM with Poisson response variable
Craig, Thanks for your follow-up note on using the asypow package. My problem was not only constructing the "constraints" vector but, for my particular situation (Poisson regression, two groups, sample sizes of (1081,3180), I get very different results using asypow package compared to my other (home grown) approaches. library(asypow) pois.mean<-c(0.0065,0.0003) info.pois <-

quantile regression
Dear all, I am a new user in r and I am facing some problems with the quantile regression specification. I have two matrix (mresultb and mresultx) with nrow=1000 and ncol=nsim, where I specify (let's say) nsim=10. Hence, the columns in my matrix represents each simulation of a determined variable. I need to regress each column of mresultb on mresultx. My codes are the following:

reason for error in small function?
Running the function below, tested using the cardiff dataset from splancs generates the following error. What changes do I need to make to get the function to work? Thanks. --Dale > gen.rpoints(events, poly, 99) > rpoints Error: object "rpoints" not found # test spatial data library(splancs) data(cardiff) attach(cardiff) str(cardiff) events <- as.points(x,y) ###

Loss of numerical precision from conversion to list ?
I?m working on an R-implementation of the simulation-based finite-sample null-distribution of (R)LR-Test in Mixed Models (i.e. testing for Var(RandomEffect)=0) derived by C. M. Crainiceanu and D. Ruppert. I'm in the beginning stages of this project and while comparing quick and dirty grid-search-methods and more exact optim()/optimize()-based methods to find the maximum of a part of the

How to speed up a for() loop
Dear all, Does anyone have any idea on how to speed up the for() loop below. Currently it takes approximately 2 minutes and 30 seconds. Because of the size of Nsim and N, simulating a multivariate normal (instead of simulating Nsim times a vector of N normal distributions) would require too much memory space. Many thanks for your kind help, Simona N=3000 PD=runif(N,0,1) cutoff.=qnorm(PD)

Spatstat: Mark correlation function
I normally use the following code to create a figure displaying the mark correlation function for the point pattern process "A": M<-markcorr(A) plot(M) I have now started to use the following code to perform 1000 Monte Carlo simulations of Complete Spatial Randomness (CSR). It is a Monte Carlo test based on envelopes of the Mark correlation function obtained from simulated point

Speeding up simulation of mean nearest neighbor distances

It works, but runs relatively slowly - would appreciate suggestions on how to speed up this function. Thanks. --Dale library(spatstat) sim.nth.mdist <- function(nth,nsim) { D <- matrix(ncol=nth,

Two functions as parametrs of a function.

I try this code: f2<-function(n=2,nsim=100,fun1=rnorm,par1=list(),fun2=rnorm,par2=list()){ force(fun1) force(fun2) force(n) p1<-unlist(par1) p2<-unlist(par2) force(p1) force(p2)

Use of the dot.dot.dot option in functions.
Hi R users: I try this code, where "fun" is a parameter of a random generating function name, and I pretend to use "..." parameter to pass the parameters of different random generating functions. What am I doing wrong? f1<-function(nsim=20,n=10,fun=rnorm,...){ vp<-replicate(nsim,t.test(fun(n,...),fun(n,...))$p.value) return(vp) } This works! f1()

[LLVMdev] How to call the llvm.prefetch intrinsic ?
Hello, Can anyone please guide me how can I replace a load instruction with a prefetch. I was looking at the intrinsic creation methods of the IRBuilder, but I can only find functions corresponding to memset, memcpy and memmove intrinsics, not for prefetching. Also, I target x86-64 architectures. Is it sufficient to insert a call to the intrinsic in the LLVM IR to have the corresponding prefetch

try (nls stops unexpectedly because of chol2inv error
Hi, I am running simulations that does multiple comparisons to control. For each simulation, I need to model 7 nls functions. I loop over 7 to do the nls using try if try fails, I break out of that loop, and go to next simulation. I get warnings on nls failures, but the simulation continues to run, except when the internal call (internal to nls) of the chol2inv fails.

[LLVMdev] Set the minimum number of allocated bits for a variable
Hi, I would like to force the minimum number of bits allocated for a variable in memory to be 16. From what I have seen, i1 is already represented on 8 bits. So, the only change would be to represent i1 and i8 on 16 bits, as all other types already fulfill this condition. TargetData can help by setting a higher alignment, thus although the type is i1 or i8, the number of allocated bits is 16.
