Dear R users, I wish to manually demean a panel over time and entities. I tried to code the Wansbeek and Kapteyn (1989) transformation (from Baltagi's book Ch. 9). As a benchmark I use both the pmodel.response() and model.matrix() functions in package plm and the results from using dummy variables. As far as I understood the transformation (Ch.3), Q%*%y (with y being the dependent variable)

Dear All, I'm trying to use waldtest to test poolability (parameter stability) between two logistic regressions. Because I need to use robust standard errors (using sandwich), I cannot use anova. anova has no problems running the test, but waldtest does, indipendently of specifying vcov or not. waldtest does not appear to see that my models are nested. H0 in my case is the the vector of

[Hope this is the right list where to send...] An attempt to update package 'mnormt' involves the addition of a small new function called 'pd.solve'. When I come to the package checking stage, an error occurs in parsing pd.solve.Rd. The full transcript of the outcome is copied below (it includes details on my installation) but the critical point is where the \examples{} section

Dear Spencer and Prof. Fox, Thank you for your replies. I'll very appreciate, if you have any ideas concerning the problem described below. First, I'd like to describe the model in brief. In general I consider a model with three equations. First one is for annual GRP growth - in general it looks like: 1) GRP growth per capita = G(investment, migration, initial GRP per

Caching computation in rails? Simple example: factorial modulus a large number input: integer x output: factorial( x ) % 12345678901234567 I want it so that if it computes factorial of N once, it will not have to compute for N again. code: class SiteController < ApplicationController caches_action :factorial, :inv def examine @inv = @params[''inv''] @outv =

I'm a week-old R user, and have become stuck trying to create usable CSV outputs for post-processing. I am using the package Rioja, which provides small datasets of results. I am running several analyses in a loop and iteratively adding the results to a *list* ("combined"). Within each iteration I use the following: > combined[[i]] <- performance(fit) With two iterations I

Hello all, How do I actually use the output of predict.lm(..., type="terms") to predict new term values from new response values? I'm a chromatographer trying to use R (2.15.1) for one of the most common calculations in that business: - Given several chromatographic peak areas measured for control samples containing a molecule at known (increasing) concentrations, first

Hi, I want to do a meta-analysis with count data for treatement/control cases. Mi problem is that I need to use zero values (an informative zero value) for the mean and standard deviation for one of the treatement, but R has a problem: "Studies with zero values for sd.e or sd.c get no weight in meta-analysis". I can agroup the case by Family (byvar=Family). ¿Can you help me? Thanks!

Hi All, I *think* it's ddply because the function recognizes vr1, etc, in other parts of the function. Here's some code: # create dataset PROV.PM.FBCTS <- c(0.00 ,0.00, 33205.19, 25994.56, 23351.37, 26959.56 ,27632.58, 26076.24, 0.00, 0.00 , 6741.42, 18665.09 ,18129.59 ,21468.39 ,21294.60 ,22764.82, 26076.73) FBCTS.INV.TOT <- c(0 , 0, 958612, 487990, 413344, 573347,

Full_Name: Ole Christensen Version: 1.6.1 OS: linux-gnu Submission from: (NULL) (130.225.18.176) In package boot : > inv.logit(800) [1] NaN where it should have been 1. The problem is caused by exp(x) returning Inf when x is large. One way of fixing the problem [there may be better ways] would be to include the line out[x > 709] <- 1 in inv.logit() Cheers Ole >

Dear R users this may be a simple question - but i would appreciate any thoughts does anyone know how you would get one lower and one upper confidence interval for a set of data that consists of proportions. i.e. taking a usual confidence interval for normal data would result in the lower confidence interval being negative - which is not possible given the data (which is constrained between

I'm new to R and i'm having some trouble with a bubble chart. Basically I have 3 series (a,b,c), but the third one is a binnary variable (assumes only 0 or 1 to the entire data). How can I use these binnary information to make 2 different colours in a bubble chart?. I.e., I'm using this code: symbols(inv$a, inv$b, circles=radius, inches=0.35, fg="white", bg="red",

Dear helpers, I wrote a code which estimates a multi-equation model with generalized least squares (GLS). I can use GLS because I know the covariance matrix of the residuals a priori. However, it is a bit slow and I wonder if anybody would be able to point out a way to make it faster (it is part of a bigger code and needs to run several times). Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Carlo

...with R from 'iris' data? Well, I think that the basic soluction to calculate this distances is: # # --- Begin R script 1 --- # x = as.matrix(iris[,1:4]) tra = iris[,5] man = manova(x ~ tra) # Mahalanobis E = summary(man)$SS[2] #Matrix E S = as.matrix(E$Residuals)/man$df.residual InvS = solve(S) ms = matrix(unlist(by(x, tra, mean)), byrow=T, ncol=ncol(x)) colnames(ms) = names(iris[1:4]) rownames(ms) = c('Set', 'Ver', 'Vir') D2.12 = (ms[1,] - ms[2,])%*%InvS%*%(ms[1,] - ms[2,]) print(D2.12) D2.13 = (ms[1,] - ms[3,])%*%InvS%*%(ms[1,] - ms[3,]) print(D2.13) D...

Hello, everyone! I picked up R several months ago and have adopted it as my choice for statistical programming. Coming from a Java background, I can honestly say that R is not only free, it is better tha S-plus: the lexical scope in R makes it very simple to simulate Java's object model. For this, I encourage everyone to read the artcle: Robert Gentleman and Ross Ihaka (2000) "Lexical

Hi, I am working on a dataset in which a number of venture capitalists invest in a number of firms. What I am creating is an asymmetric matrix M in which m(ij) is the volume (sum) of coinvestments of VC i with VC j (i.e., how much has VC i invested in companies that VC j also has investments in). The output should look like the "coinvestments" matrix produced with the code below. If

Dear All, My question is simple but I need someone to help me out. Suppose I have a positive definite matrix A. The funtion chol() gives matrix L, such that A = L'L. The inverse of A, say A.inv, is also positive definite and can be factorized as A.inv = M'M. Then A = inverse of (A.inv) = inverse of (M'M) = (inverse of M) %*% (inverse of M)' = ((inverse of

Dear all, I would be very grateful if you could help me with: Given the regularized gamma function Reg=int_0^r (x^(k-1)e^(-x))dx/int_0^Inf (x^(k-1)e^(-x))dx ; 0<r<Inf (which is eventually the ratio of the Incomplete gamma function by the gamma function), does anyone know of a package in R that would evaluate the derivative of the inverse of Reg with respect to k? I am aware that the
