R help - Feb 2017 - Help with implementing Whittaker-Henderson graduation for raw-data

Good day everyone!

I would appreciate if anyone can help me regarding the following: I would
like to implement the Whittaker-Henderson smoothing to the raw data on the
attached .txt file, based on the description on this link:

https://artax.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/r-help/library/pracma/html/whittaker.html

On the attached .txt file, The x's are the independent variables and the
y's
are the dependent variables. The signal to be smoothed is y, lambda = 1600
and d = 2.

Can anyone please send me a sample R script, or a link to an R script which
I can adapt, where I can get both the (1) smoothed graph and the (2)
smoothed values of y for each x given, and then import both the smoothed
graph and the smoothed values of y to Microsoft Excel?

Thank you very much.

Regards,

Percy

Please make at least a minimal effort to search before posting.

 A google search on "Whittaker-Henderson smoothing R" brought up what
appeared to me to be several relevant links. If I am wrong about this,
you should probably explain why in a further query.

Of course, in general, we do not write your code for you. This is just
"r-help" not a free r programming service. You need to show us your
code and the errors you got when you attempted to run it.

Cheers,
Bert

Why don't you just try the function whittaker from the pracma R package?
There is an example which should be adequate for finding out what to do.

Good day!

I eventually was able to make the code anyway. Here it is:

getwd()
setwd("C:/R")
datafile <- read.table("test_file.txt", header = TRUE)
library(SparseM)
var2 = datafile$y
d = 2
lambda = 1600
    require(SparseM, warn.conflicts = FALSE)
    m <- length(var2)
    E <- as(m, "matrix.diag.csr")
    class(E) <- "matrix.csr"
    Dmat <- diff(E, differences = d)
    B <- E + (lambda * t(Dmat) %*% Dmat)
    z <- solve(B, var2)
    z
write.table(z, "C:/R/test.txt", sep="\t")  

(then transfer the results to Excel and that's it)

Regards,

Percy

Good day!

I eventually was able to make the code anyway. Here it is:

getwd()
setwd("C:/R")
datafile <- read.table("test_file.txt", header = TRUE)
library(SparseM)
var2 = datafile$y
d = 2
lambda = 1600
    require(SparseM, warn.conflicts = FALSE)
    m <- length(var2)
    E <- as(m, "matrix.diag.csr")
    class(E) <- "matrix.csr"
    Dmat <- diff(E, differences = d)
    B <- E + (lambda * t(Dmat) %*% Dmat)
    z <- solve(B, var2)
    z
write.table(z, "C:/R/test.txt", sep="\t")  

(then transfer the results to Excel and that's it)

Now, my problem is: 

I'd like to use the following command:
    z2 <- whittaker(var2, lambda, d)
    z2
which will reveal the results using the whittaker function itself. 

However, when I use this command
    library(pracma)
I get the following error:
> library(pracma)
Error in loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck
vI[[j]]) :
  there is no package called 'quadprog'
Error: package or namespace load failed for 'pracma'

So this must mean that I should have quadprog, but when I tried
    library(quadprog)
before library(pracma), I get the following error:
> library(quadprog)
Error in library(quadprog) : there is no package called 'quadprog'

I'd like to get around these so I can use the whittaker function itself. How
can I do this? Thank you very much.

Regards,

Percy

Good day! 

Problems fixed. Resolutions:

Added 
require(pracma, warn.conflicts = FALSE) after library(pracma).

The code is now working. (The examples in the link
https://artax.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/r-help/library/pracma/html/whittaker
show the sample code for the function, but not the prerequisites. I've found
the prerequisites, so thank you very much!)

Regards,

Percy
