hi I'm trying to use the function odiag(x) for matrix calculations. I would like to assign new values to an off-diagonal in a matrix. When I use the diag (x) function I could write something like p<-matrix(seq(1:12),ncol=4) p.new<-matrix(rep(0,12),ncol=4) diag(p.new)<-diag(p) p.new But this won't work with odiag. How can I turn odiag (x) into something like diag (x) in order

Dear R list, I have the following data: set.seed(1) n <- 5 # number of subjects tt <- 3 # number of repeated observation per subject numco <- 2 # number of covariates x <- matrix(round(rnorm(n*numco),2), ncol=numco) # the actual covariates x > x [,1] [,2] [1,] -0.63 -0.82 [2,] 0.18 0.49 [3,] -0.84 0.74 [4,] 1.60 0.58 [5,] 0.33 -0.31 I need to form a matrix

Hi Does anyone know how I might pick out diagonal elements of a matrix using a vector? If I create a matrix a: a <- matrix(c(1:16), 4, byrow=TRUE) and I want to pick out the elements (1,1),(2,2),(3,3), or another arbitrary diagonal (upper or lower), is there any way I can use a vector to do this? So if I want a diagonal of size 3, I could create a vector like x <- c(0:2) and then pick

So many matrices are square symmetrical (i.e. variance-covariance matrices), is there any way to get R to split the matrix on its diagonal and just return one diagonal? So if I have mat<-matrix(c(1,4,3,4,1,2,3,2,1), nrow = 3, ncol=3, byrow=TRUE) is there anyway to get the lower right diagonal instead of the entire symmetric matrix? -------------------------------------------

Dear R-users, I would like to know whether there is a way to extract a diagonal of an inverse matrix without computing the inverse of the matrix itself. The size of my matrices are really huge and, also using sparse matrix, computing the inverse leads to storage problems and low speed. In other words, given a square matrix A, I aim to know diag(B), where B=solve(A), without computing solve(A).

Hi, I have worked long and hard and looked in the manuals and am having a hard time constructing a diagonal matrix. I can get the diagonals out of a matrix but can't construct the matrix with just the diagonals. I have been on the web site and manuals and I think that it says to use: dsj <- diag (three = 1, nrow, ncol = 7) three is the name of my matrix and

Hello and sorry that I still haven?t found a solution for my problem. I need to extract the lower and upper triangle from a square matrix including the diagonal. This diagonal is not zero in that special case. I tried with as.dist w<-as.dist(w, diag = TRUE) > w 1 2 3 4 5 1 0 2 2 0 3 3 8 0 4 4 9 14 0 5 5 10 15 20 0 but found no way to keep the diagonal that is in the

Hello, I am in need of help in putting histograms on the diagonal of a plot produced with splom(). The plot matrix I am trying to produce is to have standard scatterplots in the upper-left triangle, contour plots in the lower-right triangle, and histograms on the diagonal. I have a function that does the first two, but the histograms on the diagonal has been beyond my ability. Here is my

Dear all, seems that easy question but cannot find the function for that. How to get the elements of the minor diagonal of the matrix? Thanks a lot. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi Suppose I have a matrix (cohort are rows and years are columns) [2000] [2001] [2002] [2003] [C1] 0.01 0.03 0.02 0.09 [C2] 0.06 0.05 0.07 0.11 [C3] 0.1 0.5 0.4 0.98 [C4] 0.7 0.6 0.2 0.77 I want to extracts the diagonals to get a matrix which looks like this (C1 becomes C2 in 2002, C2 becomes C3 in 2003

Hi I want to write a little function that takes a vector of arbitrary length "n" and returns a matrix of size n+1 by n+1. I can't easily describe it, but the following function that works for n=3 should convey what I'm trying to do: f <- function(x){ matrix(c( 1 , 0 , 0 , 0, x[1] , 1 , 0 , 0, x[1]*x[2] , x[2] , 1 , 0,

Hi, how do i fill the secondary diagonals of a matrix? Is there an funktion like the "diag" funktion in matlab, where i can specify the diagonal i?d like to fill? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Filling-matrix-secondary-diagonal-tp25121745p25121745.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

splom() doesn't complain here, but writes no names in the diagonal boxes. What am I missing? I believe that I need to add something like grid.text(x, ...) to the diagonal panel, but I don't know how to get it cycle through the column labels. And should varname.col = 'blue', varname.cex = 1 be inside the diag.panel() function? splom(szw[, n], pscales = 0, diag.panel

Dear All, I have a correlation matrix of size 100 x 100 and would like to extract the diagonal matrix from it. I have used the for loop to store tha correlation values of the diagonal matrix. Is there a 'R way' of doing this? Thanks in advance. Kind regards, Ezhil

Hi r-help community, This question isn't so much a syntax/coding one, but here goes: Let's say I have matrix of arbitrary dimensions and I'd like to reorder the rows in such a way that I could maximize the sum of the entries along the diagonal. For example, for this 3x3 matrix: [,1] [,2] [,3] [1,] 3 4 13 [2,] 9 1 2 [3,] 2 11 1 rearranging the rows

Hello,.. Apologies for the newbie question but... I have a matrix R, and I know that *B %*% t(b) = R* *I'm trying to solve for B *(aka. 'factoring the correlation matrix' I think) Please help! I've read that 'to solve for B we define the eigenvalues of R and then apply the techniques of Principal Component Analysis' This made me reach for princomp() but now I'm

I have (below) an attempt at an R script to find the limit distribution of a continuous-time Markov process, using the formulae outlined at http://www.uwm.edu/~ziyu/ctc.pdf, page 5. First, is there a better exposition of a practical algorithm for doing this? I have not found an R package that does this specifically, nor anything on the web. Second, the script below will give the right

Dear R-list, I am in the process of translating a long function written in Matlab into R (mainly because I am a big of fan of R, and folks will not have to pay to use it :). In the translation of this function I got stack because they use spdiags, which, as far as I can tell it is not available in R. I have explored the Matrix package, from which I borrowed some of the functions (e.g.,
