Hi I have a dataframe which has 3 columns of numeric data A,B,C each of which has been obtained independent of the other. We are trying to find out, which of A or B cause C i.e. We are hypothesising that C is the effect and either A or B, not both is the cause. i.e. A causes C and this cause-effect relationship explains B. The data for A contains more noise than that for B. We are working with

Can't make sense of calculated results and hope I'll find help here. I've collected answers from about 600 persons concerning three variables. I hypothesise those three variables to be components (or indicators) of one latent factor. In order to reduce data (vars), I had the following idea: Calculate the factor underlying these three vars. Use the loadings and the original var values to construct an new (artificial) var: (B1 * X1) + (B2 * X2) +...

I am having problems using the /lme /command to fit mixed models. I have a data set similar to longitudinal data, except the hypothesised correlation is between observations taken from different individuals in the same family rather than from the same individual at different times. As soon as I try to specify any correlation structure other than independent, I get the error message "/Error in x$formula : object of type ...

...d to recreate the short-long mapping in my head... Let's think about WHY abbreviated names were allowed in the first place. Usability is worth a lot more than purity to the actual users of a package. S had the rare advantage of serious users just down the hall from the developers, which I hypothesise is one of the true foundation for it's success. (What user would have invented the hiding aspect S4 classes --- "let's put the results of the fit into a steel box so they can't see the parts" --- which is actually touted as a virtue? I cringe every time a new method I nee...

Olly, I think the confdefs.h issue was due to the fact that I was using XAPIAN_CONFIG to point to the configure script, rather than the xapian_config executable created when making xapian_core, as pointed out by James. Also, as a general note, when trying to make the bindings, I had a problem when make was trying to compile the java source in org/xapian The following line: $(JAVAC)

...is large positive it would contain evidence that the actual cdf F is less than the null hypothesis Fo. This is the traditional form of the "less" alternative hypothesis. Ha: F < Fo is equivalent to the quantiles of the actual distribution being greater than quantiles of the null hypothesised cdf Fo, consequently the manual entry should make clear that the one sided alternatives "greater" or "less" refers to the quantiles and not the cdf's. 3. Another feature that it would be very useful to add to ks.test would be the automatic return of a confidence interv...

Purpose: Create a File Server that can replace our windows file server. System Details: RedHat 8 Kernel 2.4.18-18 SGI XFS 1.2.0 2 disks 1 for the filesystem ext3 1 for the shares using xfs Most of the threads and articles I read about doing this told me that I had to recompile the kernel for acl support. Then I found a post that mention that XFS has built in ACL support. Which

Hi, I apologize if there is a simple answer to this question that I've missed. I did search the mailing list but I might not have used the right keywords. Why does sum(A3^2) give the result of 1, but sum(A3^2)==1 give the result of FALSE? > A3<-matrix(nrow=3,c(1/(2^.5),1/(2^.5),0)) > A3 [,1] [1,] 0.7071068 [2,] 0.7071068 [3,] 0.0000000 > sum(A3^2) [1] 1 >

...e terminal window borders, which does not make any sense. Sometimes the SCF stops at the same x-coordinate as the tri-repeat window, for instance. The composite extension is disabled in the X server, so the terminal windows should not have a backing pixmap in VRAM. If they had, it would be easy to hypothesise that NV20 Gallium is overwriting some VRAM with solid color, and separate backing pixmaps would explain respecting the window borders and the clipping to other windows. The fact, that the SCF is a rectangle, suggests that whatever draws it, has the "correct" pitch. Otherwise it would not...
