Reference to use of MLR in industry and biology
I apologize in advance for posting a question not related to R. I need references to papers that use multiple linear regression in an industrial application and also in a biological experiment. This is aimed to biologists/chemists (non-statisticans) so if anyone has written a brilliant paper where the use of multiple regression is important and also understandable to people with little knowledge of statistics and you like to be cited, please email me the reference off the list. To show the wide range of application I would...

Suggestions: Terminology & Pkgs for following spectra over time
Hi Folks... No code to troubleshoot here. I need some suggestions about the right terminology to use in further searching, and any suggestions about R pkgs that might be appropriate. I am in the planning stages of a project in which IR, NMR and other spectra (I'm a chemist) would be collected on various samples, and individual samples would be followed over time. The spectra will be feature rich/complex, so one can't see the changes by visual inspection. The spectra are basically 2D matrices: peaks as a function of frequencies. So the data set is in the form o...

Robust estimation of variance components for a nested design

Creating objects (data.frames) with names stored in character vector
Hello, I'm fairly new to R. I'm a chemist, not a programmer so please bear with me. I have a large data.frame that I want to break down (subset) into smaller data.frames for analysis. I would like to give the data.frames descriptive names which I have stored in a character vector. My original thought was that I want the subsets to show...

Teasing out logrank differences *between* groups using survdiff or something else?
...alysis for the only the groups of interest, as the hazard ratio for any one group in an analysis with several groups is computed by holding the other groups at their average value, so the hazard ratio varies by the context. Seems like we need some sort of t-test or chi-squared test, but being mere chemists and molecular biologists, we don't quite see it and wouldn't trust ourselves anyway, given the special nature of survival analysis. Manual instructions or a function suggestion would be great. Thanks in Advance, Bryan ************* Bryan Hanson Professor of Chemistry & Biochemistry D...

checking for identical columns in a mxn matrix
Hi, I have a rectangular matrix and I need to check whether any columns are identical or not. Currently I'm looping over the columns and checking each column with all the others with identical(). However, as experience has shown me, getting rid of loops is a good idea :) Would anybody have any suggestions as to how I could do this job more efficiently. (It would be nice to know which

Distinct combinations for bootstrapping small sets
Small data sets (6-12 values, or a similarly small number of groups) which don't look nice and symmetric are quite common in my field (analytical chemistry and biological variants thereof), and often contain outliers or at least stragglers that I cannot simply discard. One of the things I occasionally do when I want to see what different assumptions do to my confidence intervals is to run a quick nonparametric bootstrap, just to get a feel for how a...

Windows Genuine Advantage
If this is off subject or has already been addressed, sorry. "Windows Genuine Advantage" looks like a move to make wine worthless. What I mean is that M$ development API pushes windows developers' applications to require you install IE 6.0 (soon 7.0) or later, making IE a key part of wine. If IE requires Genuine MicroSoft (Windows Genuine Advantage) to install, then most if not all

Watch a file during the day and just report changes, replace on a scheduleat night if chnged during the day: needs to be a type?
Hi, In our dev/int environemnts, our user base wants to be able to change managed files at will during the day but be notified via email of changes that happen. At night they want the files replaced to their known good state if there were changed. I tried to do this with a custom function that wraps two file types, one that just watches checksum, the other that does a reset of content with a
