Can someone recommend a method to answer the following type of question: Suppose I have a coin with a probability hhh of coming up heads (and 1-hhh of coming up tails) I plan on flipping the coin nnn times (for example, nnn = 500) What is the expected probability or frequency of a run of rrr heads* during the nnn=500 coin flips? Moreover, I would probably (excuse the pun) want the answer for...

Dear R helpers, I am trying to understand how to use the independence_test function in the coin package. I think I suffer from a misunderstanding about what the package does. Either that or I do not understand how to use it properly. Specifically, I cannot understand if I can test independence of arbitrary statistics. Take the following example: set.seed(10) d <- data.frame(y = c(rnorm(1...

Hello, I am going through Zhao's RDataMining PDF, and to redo all the graphics on my computer, I need several packages, 'coin' and 'party' to name two. I get the following error: > install.packages("coin") Installing package(s) into ?/home/sven/R/i686-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.15?

Hi, R allows me to run a one sample Wilcoxon test like this: wilcox.test(c(1,3.5,2.1,4,1.5,5), mu=2, exact=TRUE) The function 'wilcoxsign_test' from the package 'coin' should (I suppose) be able to calculate exact p values even if there are ties in the ranks. However, I couldn't find information on how to run a one sample test using 'wilcoxsign_test' like in the example above. Can anybody help? Thanks, Holger

Dear List, I'm interested in performing a permutation test on the interaction between a binary treatment indicator and a covariate (either continuous or categorical). I'm interested in the p-value of the interaction effect from a permutation test, and I'm using the coin package for that purpose. As I haven't seen any examples like this in the package documentation (or anywhere else), I'm not sure how to specify the test in this case. For example, should I interpret the p-value in the example below as the pvalue of the interaction effect between group and...

Is it possible to implement the Jonckheere-Terpstra test for ordered alternatives using the coin package: Conditional Inference Procedures in a Permutation Test Framework? I found jonckheere.test{clinfun}, but it uses a normal approximation when ties are present in the data. To make this concrete, I've include a small dataset. Thanks. --Dale Hollander and Wolfe, 1999 Table 6.6, pg 205...

Dear fellow R users, Keywords: Kruskal-Wallis, Post-Hoc, pair-wise comparisons, Nemenyi-Damico-Wolfe-Dunn test, coin package, oneway_test I am using the "oneway_test" function in the R package "coin" and I am obtaining results which I cannot believe are accurate. I do not wish to waste anyone's time and so if the following problem is rather trivial, I apologize, however I could not seem t...

I tried Tal's suggestion of deleting the doBy and coin packages and then reinstalling them from a different mirror. The first install was from the Harvard mirror and the second was from the Case Western Univ. mirror. The new packages generate the same errors when I call them using the library() command. Also, I tried to load these packages using R...

I am using "apply" to run exact permutation t-tests by columns using the coin package. For example: library(coin) dat <- matrix(rnorm(7*35),7,35) fun <- function(x) { pvalue( independence_test(x~f, data=data.frame(x, f=factor(c(rep("a",4),rep("b",3)))), distribution = "exact")) } p.vals <- apply(dat, 2, fun) Some small-sca...

I've got a dumb Western Electric payphone and some homebuilt hardware to control the coin relay which is accessible to Asterisk through the AGI interface. I'd like to be able to set the state of the coin relay to collect at the end of a call if a called party answers. [Hey, I admit this project is being persued just for the fun of it ] Looking through the documentation, there is a...

Dear expeRts, I would like to use a oneway_test (from package coin) to test whether two groups differ on various variables. The variables are encoded within a data frame. Unfortunately, I obtained an error, that I don't understand. Could you please help me ? Example: library(coin) y <- as.data.frame(matrix(rnorm(200), ncol=2)) group <- as.factor(u...

I am trying a simple toin coss simulation, of say 200 coin tosses. The idea is to have a data frame like so: Experiment# Number_Of_Heads 1 104 2 96 3 101 So I do: d <-data.frame(exp_num=c(1,2,3)); /* Just 3 experiments to begin with */ d$head_ct <-sum(sample(0:1,200,re...

Good Evening R-Help Community: I have attached a file that contains the output from sessionInfo() and a summary of my Win XP system. I am?running R 2.12.0 and using Tinn-R 2.3.6.2 as my interface. When I attempt to call either the doBy or coin packages R generates an error that I do not understand and have so far not been able to resolve by searching R resources. I exchanged a couple of emails with Soren Hojsgaard who does not think the doBy error is directly related to the package itself, and he suggested that I post this problem f...

Anyone know if coin can run a permutation test based on a (user-defined) statistic other than the mean difference? The function independence_test does the permutation t-test via difference in means. I'm wondering if it's possible to use independence_test to run a permutation test for some other statistic tha...

Dear R-help, Could someone please try to explain this paradox to me?

Hi, I am running the following example which can be found on page 12 of the pdf file of COIN package wt<-wilcox_test(pd~age,data=water_transfer,distribution="exact", conf.int=TRUE) "wt" actually contains the estimate of difference in location and the confidence interval of it. I am just wondering how can I extract these values? From the examples, I understand that...
