Perhaps someone will have a solution to my more general problem, but here is the specific one: I used the round() function to round some estimates to 3 decimal places. I then sent put the rounded estimates in a matrix and used latex() to make a LaTeX table from them. However, in my table, there are estimtes which only have 2 decimal places. I assume that the third decimal place in these numbers

Here's one possibility, assuming muhat and sigmahat are estimtes of mu and sigma from N iid draws of N(mu, sigma^2): tStat <- abs(x - muhat) / sigmahat pValue <- pt(tStat, df=N, lower=TRUE) I'm not quite sure what df tStat should have (exercise for math stat), but given fairly large N, that should make little difference.

I need to find out the difference between the way R calculates weighted regression and standard regression. I want to plot a 95% confidence interval around an estimte i got from least squares regression. I cant find he documentation for this ive looked in ?stats ?lm ?predict.lm ?weights ?residuals.lm Can anyone shed light? thanks Chris. -- View this message in context:

Dear all, Suppose I have a linear mixed-effects model (from the package nlme) with nested random effects (see below); how would I present the results from the random effects part in a publication? Specifically, I?d like to know: (1) What is the total variance of the random effects at each level? (2) How can I test the significance of the variance components? (3) Is there something like an

Hi, I am computing the Nelson-Aalen (NA) estimate of baseline cumulative hazard in two different ways using the "survival" package. I am expecting that they should be identical. However, they are not. Their difference is a monotonically increasing with time. This difference is probably not large to make any impact in the application, but is annoyingly non-trivial for me to just

Dear list members, I try to simulate an incomplete block design in which every participants receives 3 out of 4 possible treatment. The outcome in binary. Assigning a binary outcome to the BIB or PBIB dataset of the package SASmixed gives the appropriate output. With the code below, fixed treatment estimates are not given for each of the 4 possible treatments, instead a kind of summary

Hello, Could anybody offer any advice about implementing a Kohonen self organizing map for categorical data? Specifically I am wondering if there are any pre-existent packages that can deal with categorical data and/or how one would compare the input vector of categoricals with the self organizing map nodes.
