Dear All: I used optim() to minimise the loglikelihood function for fitting data to negative binomial distribution. But there initial value of log-likelihood and iteration 10 value are reasonable. for example: initial value 1451657.994524 iter 10 value 47297.534905 iter 20 value -623478636.8236478 Then the iter 20 vlaue suddelnly changes to a negative value and in the end the error mesage is

hello, i am using the hist function with classified values. The class breaks are >1, so histogram$density is != 1. How to plot the histogram with freq=FALSE and the real class density values. I used: > h2 = hist(value, breaks = breaks_vector) > h2$density = round(h2$counts/sum(h2$counts), 2) > h2$intensities = h2$density > plot(h2, freq=F) but this isn't the best way, i

Hi, I have a dataset from a client where the data is from a cross-over design. Basically, each subject in a survey was asked to rate two products, A and B. The subject sampled A first and then after an appropriate wash-out period he/she sampled B. The next subject did the same, but in a different order. How can I do an ANOVA analysis on a cross-over design with only two treatments. This

Hi, I have a consultants nightmare -- I was given a project that another consultant did and I was told to do the same calculations, but there's no documentation on what he did. Basically, I have yes/no answers to survey questions about the effectiveness of product attributes by brands. There are 44 attributes and 13 brands. The other guy scaled the proportion of respondents who said

Dear R users, This is a KDE beginner's question. I have this distribution: > length(cap) [1] 200 > summary(cap) Min. 1st Qu. Median Mean 3rd Qu. Max. 459.9 802.3 991.6 1066.0 1242.0 2382.0 I need to compute the sum of the values times their probability of occurence. The graph is fine, den <- density(cap, from=min(cap), to=max(cap), give.Rkern=F)
