Dear R-listers, I would like to carry out a very basic descriptive analysis of homicides rates in Italy, taking into account both the spatial dimension (103 provinces) and the temporal dimension (10 years), but no covariates. In practice, what I would like to do is to describe spatio-temporal variation of homicide rates, identifying those combinations of province-year where the ho...

Dear all, do you know if it's available and where the "FBI Homicide" dataset? It has at least the following columns: "victim age", "homicide age". A scatterplot of this data is visible here: http://www.uml.edu/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=6016 Thanks for your help! mario -- Ing. Mario Valle Data Analysis and Visualization Group |

I am hoping for some advice regarding limiting decimal points to 3. 'Round' produces the desired results except for the 97.5% confidence interval. Any advice as to how I modify the code to obtain output to 3 decimal points for all ouput is appreciated, regards Bob Green mod.multgran <-multinom(offence ~ grandiose * violent.convictions, data = kc, na.action = na.omit)

Dear All, I'am looking for examples showing that correlation does not imply causality, the targeted audience consists of undergraduate students (their first year at the university but in the BioMathStat track). All practicals are under R. I was able to extract this from R datasets: ### begin data(sunspots) data(lynx) spots <- window(sunspots, freq = 1, start = 1880, end = 1900) lnx <-

Hi, I would love to make multiple histograms transposed one on another in order to show relation between the sets. I tried to write a function like this, but R tells me, that I cannot use add=FALSE in high-level commands. That's nice but I am supposed to do? rm(list=ls()) # what's wrong with underscore? #getwd("/home/matej/docs/skola/stat\_anal-cj3534/assign01/")

I have a dataframe concerning manner of death from death certificates, from 2005 to 2009 inclusive, with the following structure: > str(MannerYoung.plot.data) 'data.frame': 245 obs. of 4 variables: $ year : Factor w/ 5 levels "2005","2006",..: 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 ... $ manner : Factor w/ 7 levels "Accident","Homicide",..: 1 1 1

I was hoping for some advice regarding possible explanations for the fitted probability values I obtained for a multinomial logistic regression. The analysis aims to predict whether Capgras delusions (present/absent) are associated with group (ABH, SV, homicide; values = 1,2,3,), controlling for previous violence. What has me puzzled is that for each combination the fitted probabilities are

Folks, I have installed puppet my network and it works great .. I have configured it such a way that when I make changes in the server source fiels..it gets updated in teh puppet clients. As the document reads the puppet clients checks for any changes from the server every 30 mins. But is there is any opiton of changing this value to lesser time .. say 15 mins .. or is there opiton for the

I am hoping for some assistance with formatting a large text file which consists of a series of individual records. Each record includes specific labels/field names (a sample of 1 record (one of the longest ones) is below - at end of post. What I want to do is reformat the data, so that each individual record becomes a row (some cells will have a lot of text). For example, the column

hello R-world, according to the strucchange package .pdf, "all procedures in this package are concerned with testing or assessing deviations from stability in the classical linear regression model." i'd like to test/assess deviations from stability in the Poisson model. is there a way to modify the strucchange package to suit my purposes, or should i use be using another

Peter & Michael, I just came across the following on another mailing list and realized that my use (and the authors of the article use of the term 'odds ratio' ) is probably incorrect. I believe my interest is in the 'odds' of schizophrenia among the population of homicide, rather than a comparison of odds . "Yours seems a good idea, Kevin, if you are only interested

Contrary to the report, this only affect 1.3.x version of icecast, not _all_ versions. But this is a serious problem and I do hope you all took my advice last time and aren't running icecast as root.

http://dovecot.org/nightly/dovecot-latest.tar.gz Would be nice to get some testing before the actual release. I've now finally gone through all the "TODO" mails in this list and my INBOX and fixed pretty much every problem I know of. There are still some mbox bugs, but I can't really get them fixed unless someone figures out how to reproduce them

Dear list: I am attempting to use what I thought would be a pretty straightforward practical application of Cox regression. I figure users of the survival package must have come across this problem before, so I would like to ask you how you dealt with it. I have set up an illustrative example and included it at the end of this post. I took a sample of 100 data points from each of two populations

I have been trying to determine the size of the R user base, and was asked to share my findings with this mailing list. Although I still don't have any definite estimate of this number, I do have some interesting and indicative information: 1. It appears that there are about 100,000 S-PLUS users. Rationale: According to Insightful's 2002 Annual Report, over 100,000 people use
