I've been working towards a mp3info like tool, OggInfo, which will surplant vorbiscomment in functionality, and also incorportate mp3info like featuers. Looking at existing vorbis api calls, i find: vorbis_comment_add() /* unsupervised string insertion */ vorbis_comment_add_tag() /* formated TAG=text insertion */ vorbis_comment_query() /* scans for matching tag (up to count duplicates) and

I'm trying to pick a kernel for ext3. Looking at the web page (http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/ext3/), I see little that clues me in to the fact that "most" of ext3 is already in (some|most|all) of the 2.4 series kernels. Am I correct that most of the patches listed on the web page now are actually bug fixes to the existing ext3 code, as opposed to previous patches that actually

Hi everyone, I just landed into the theora planet, as a game programmer, I searched for a free video fomat/codec and the theora choice became obvious. However I experienced rather bad performance (at least from a game programming point of view) After a couple a profiling, I discovered, as previous discused in a post found via Google, that the bottleneck is in the ogg library. An unsane part of the

John Fox (see below) raises important questions for the Lisp-stat community (and perhaps the R community) to consider. This message thread was not cross-posted to r-devel@lists.r-project.org, so I do so now. I have never been an active or particularly adept Lisp-stat programmer. But I have worked on or used several projects for which Lisp-stat seemed the ideal environment-- for implementing

Hello R users, I would like to fit a generalized linear model for the binomial family with some non standard link functions. For instance, this is the Aranda-Ordaz link: ? = ln( ( (1 - ?)^-? - 1 )/?) I know how to define a new link function to use with glm(), but I my problem is that I have an extra parameter to estimate and I have no clue how to incorporate that. Is there any way to tell

...However, it was recently suggested to me by Soren Hosgaard that a better option would be to incorporate this as part of `optim' itself, either replacing existing Nelder-Mead or as another `method' in optim, so that it will be more widely used. Would anyone from the R-core be interested in incorporting this into optim? It should be mentioned that my code is entirely written in R. Therefore, speed gains could be achieved if translated into C (I am not proficient in C). Best, Ravi. ____________________________________________________________________ Ravi Varadhan, Ph.D. Assistant Professor, D...

Hello R Users, I have a question regarding fitting a model with GAM{mgcv}. I have data from several predictor (X) variables I wish to use to develop a model to predict one Y variable. I am working with ecological data, so have data collected many times (about 20) over the course of two years. Plotting data independently for each date there appears to be relationships between Y (fish
