Help with accessing elements of a list
Hi, As part of the analysis of a longitudinal study, I have a list, called wg, on R 1.3.1 for windows created as follows - wg <- by(xx, xx$mrn, function(xx) lm(xx$maternal.wt ~ xx$gestation, data=xx)) xx is a data.frame, and so wg contains the results of 293 linear regressions, as lm objects. Now what I want is to extract the 293 intercepts and regression coefficients as a vector, and do things with them - like examine their distributions. >wg[[1]] gives Call: lm(formula = x...

RE: z-scores for different factor levels
...Sent: Friday, January 18, 2002 5:33 AM To: r-help at stat.math.ethz.ch Subject: [R]: z-scores for different factor levels Hi there. I am trying to generate z-scores for a variable according to it's factor level, leaving this result in the original dataframe. ie. standardised birth weight for gestational age in weeks. BWT is birthweight GEST is gestational age in weeks (equivalent to the factor level) I can generate the factor level mean & SD using tapply tapply(BWT,GEST,mean) etc. but this creates a new array of means & SDs. - Can anyone suggest how I can slot these means & SDs by...

2.2 release imminent.
Well, as Andrew shouted at me again this weekend it's getting to be about that time.... :-) :-). Yep, we're thinking we should do an official 2.2 Samba release early next week, so if you have anything you can't live with, now would be a good time to tell us.... :-). It's been gestating longer than an elephant, so it's really time to let it out into the world and do its own

Problem with Trellis graphics in nlme
...of the graphics device. My graphics are correct horizontally, but are confined to about one-fifth of the vertical extent of the graphics device. As a result they look odd, and are almost usless for analysis. They do seem, however, to be the correct graphics (In this case maternal weight against gestational age for two groups of women). I have read the manual for the lattice commands, and the nlme command, and indeed for the plain plot command, but failed to get any ideas. Roughly, I need to tell lattice to use the full vertical extent of the display device. If it helps, I can e-mail the offendi...

LMS estimation for lmsqreg package
...this: library(lmsqreg) centiles <- c(0.004,0.02,0.09,0.25,0.5,0.75,0.91,0.98,0.996) lms.fit <- lmsqreg.fit(boys.o$BIRTH_WEIGHT,boys.0$GEST_AGE,edf=c(3,5,3),pvec=centiles) plot(lms.fit) points(boys.0$GEST_AGE,boys.0$BIRTH_WEIGHT) I also plotted the median and the coefficient of variation by gestation age, but then I'm struggling to find the correct command to plot the Box-Cox power by gestation age. (Does it makes sense to compute all centiles in one go?) Thanks Joanne P.S.: I found a couple of recent articles that refer to the GAMLSS package, but that looks even more complicated to me....

Fix for bug in arima function
There is currently a bug in the arima function. Namely, for arima models with differencing or seasonal differencing, the innovation variance estimator uses the wrong denominator whenever xreg is non-null. This is the case, for example, when fitting an ARIMA(p,1,q) model with a drift term (common in financial applications). I reported the bug (and a fix) at

Fix for bug in arima function
The bug repository is like an elephant: It doesn't forget, but the gestation period is long. In the present case, it is clear that something is not right, but someone needs to have sufficient recall and insight to check that your proposed fix is not unfixing a deliberate change. We should get to it eventually. (For some value of "we" not including "me"....

General mixed effects Cox models
After an extremely long gestation, a new version of the coxme package is now available on CRAN. This function fits very general mixed-effects Cox models using an lmer-like syntax. For instance here is a model that fits a random treatment effect, using data from a multi-study collaboration. fit <- coxme(Surv(pg.time, pg.sta...

wilcox.test construction in r
Hi, I am very confused with constructing the wilcox.test in R. I have two populations 'original' and 'test'. I want to know if the 'test' is generally 'lower' than original. I use alpha of 0.05. So do I write the function as wilcox.test(original, test, alternative="l")? or wlcox.test(original, test, alternative = "g")? or wilcox.test(test,
