Dear R helpers I have following data stocks <- c("ABC", "DEF", "GHI", "JKL") prices_df <- data.frame(ABC = c(17,24,15,22,16,22,17,22,15,19),                                          DEF = c(22,28,20,20,28,26,29,18,24,21),                                           GHI = c(32,27,32,36,37,37,34,23,25,32),                                          

...ate a correlated vector. Is there anyway to do this? Maybe I can clarify my question by explaining what my goal is: I want to generate one Binary Vector (A), generate a correlated binary Vector (B), then generate a third binary Vector (C) that is correlated to B so that I can then see the occuring correlations between A and C.

Hi everyone. Based on a dependent variable (y), I'm trying to generate some independent variables with a specified correlation. For this there's no problems. However, I would like that have all my "regressors" to be orthogonal (i.e. no correlation among them. For example, y = x1 + x2 + x3 where the correlation between y x1 = 0.7, x2 = 0.4 and x3 = 0.8. However, x1, x2 and x3

Hi All: I would like to generate a binomial random variable that correlates with a normal random variables with a specified correlation. Off course, the correlation coefficient would not be same at each run because of randomness. I greatly appreciate your input. Ashraf

Hi All. I'd like to generate a sample of n observations from a k dimensional multivariate normal distribution with a random correlation matrix. My solution: The lower (or upper) triangle of the correlation matrix has n.tri=(d/2)(d+1)-d entries. Take a uniform sample of n.tri possible correlations (runi(n.tr,-.99,.99) Populate a triangle of the matrix with the sampled correlations Mirror the triangle to populate the other triangle forming a symmetric matrix, cormat Sample n observations from a multivariate normal distribution with mean vector=0 and varcov=cormat Problem: This approach viol...

Hi, I have a correlation matrix of about 3000 items, i.e., a 3000*3000 matrix. For each of the 3000 items, I want to get the top 50 items that have the highest correlation with it (excluding itself) and generate a data frame with 3 columns like ("ID", "ID2", "cor"), where ID is those 3000 items each repeat 50 times, and ID2 is the top 50 correlated items with ID,

Hello, If I have two correlation matrices (e.g. one for each of two treatments) and then perform cor() on those two correlation matrices is this third correlation matrix interpreted as the correlation between the two treatments? In my sample below I would interpret that the treatments are 0.28 correlated. Is this correct? > var1<- c(.000000000008, .09, .1234, .5670008, .00110011002200,

...possible with R, and whether anyone has done that and can share his/her code with me. I have a correlation matrix, and I want to create a correlation table that I can copy to Microsoft Word with a superscript above each correlation, indicating significant differences in the same row. That is, when correlations in the same row do not share superscript, it means that they are significantly different from each other. thanks,yoav [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

hello, i am a bit of a statistical neophyte and currently trying to make some sense of confidence intervals for correlation coefficients. i am using the cor.test() function. the documentation is quite terse and i am having trouble tieing up the output from this function with stuff that i have read in the literature. so, for example, i make two sequences and calculate the correlation coefficient:

I'm looking to create a correlation matrix, but I have already obtained the correlations, which are stored in a vector. (Basically, I'm running a simulation which requires a correlation matrix, but I am simulating the various correlations.) My aim is to create a function that can take the vector, and fit the values into their respective locations in a correlation matrix. (The corr...

Hi, I wanted to know how to compute the correlation ratio (eta) between two variables using R. Is there any function to compute the correlation ratio. Any help will be very much appreciated. Thanks, Suman [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I am not really familiar with Correlation foundations, although I read a lot. So maybe if someone kindly help me to interpret the following results. I had the following R commands: correlation <-cor( vector_CitationProximity , vector_Impact, method = "spearman", use="na.or.complete") cor_test<-cor.test(vector_CitationProximity, vector_Impact,

Hi, Is there any R library/package that calculates tetrachoric correlations from given marginals and Pearson correlations among ordinal variables? Inputs to polychor function in polycor package are either contingency tables or ordinal data themselves. I am looking for something that takes marginal distributions and Pearson correlation as inputs. For example, Y1=(1,2,3)...

...method = c("pearson")) " can help obtain the coefficients. I also know that "cor.test()" is supposed to test the significance of a single correlation coefficients. I've also found the bioconductor package "genefilter" / "genefinder" that looks for correlations to a given gene (although I can't get it to work). So far I've been able to: #Read in the csv file data<-read.csv("my data.csv") #Check the dimensions, names, class, fix(data) to ensure the file was loaded properly dim(data) names(data) class(data) fix(data) #So far I'...

Dear all, The other day I was reading this post [1] that slightly surprised me: "To reject the null of no correlation, an hypothsis test based on the normal distribution. If normality is not the base assumption your working from then p-values, significance tests and conf. intervals dont mean much (the value of the coefficient is not reliable) " (BOB SAMOHYL). To me this implied that in

Hi, R! Question1: I am trying to correlate two vectors of numbers (two columns of microarray signal values) by using the non-parametric Spearman's rank correlation coefficient rho: > cor.test(V2.Signal,V3.Signal,method="spearman") but I get the error message: Error in if (q > (n^3 - n)/6) pspearman(q - 1, n, lower.tail = FALSE) else pspearman(q, : missing value

Hi, there: As you all know, correlation is not a very robust procedure. Sometimes correlation could be driven by a few outliers. There are a few ways to improve the robustness of correlation (pearson correlation), either by outlier removal procedure, or resampling technique. I am wondering if there is any R package or R code that have incorporated outlier removal or resampling procedure in

Hi everybody. I'm trying to do a correlation matrix in a list of files. Each file contains 2 columns: "capt1" and "capt2". For the example, I merged all in one data.frame. My data also contains many missing data. The aim is to do a correlation matrix for the same data for course (one correlation matrix for capt1 and another for capt2). For the moment, I have a correlation

Hello, I am running polychoric correlations on a dataset composed of 12 ordinal and binary variables (N =384), using the polycor package. One of the association (between 2 dichotomous variables) is very high using the 2-step estimate (0.933 when polychoric run only between the two variables; but 0.801 when polychoric run on the 12 variables)...
