...ock' argument in gev in the evir package? The S+FinMetrics function aggregateSeries does the job in that module; but I do not know, how handle it in R. My guess is that (1) is done by using the function aggregate, but how to define the 'by' argument with POSIX variables? Thanks! Hannu Kahra Progetti Speciali Monte Paschi Asset Management SGR S.p.A.

Hello: would you please help me with the following glm question? for the R function glm, what I understand is: once you specify the "family", then the link function is fixed. My question is: is it possible I use, for example, "log" link function, but the estimation approach for the guassian family? Thanks, Shuangge Ma, Ph.D. ******************************************** *

Hello All, I would like to optimize a (log-)likelihood function subject to a number of linear constraints between parameters. These constraints are equality constraints of the form A%*%theta=c, ie (1,1) %*% 0.8,0.2)^t = 1 meaning that these parameters should sum to one. Moreover, there are bounds on the individual parameters, in most cases that I am considering parameters are bound between zero

...gfried, I am not a statistician, but I have learned that according to the Central Limit Theorem (CLT) sums of random variables, regardless of their form, will tend to be normally distributed. CLT does not require the variables in the sum to come from the same underlying distribution. Ciao, Hannu Kahra Progetti Speciali Monte Paschi Asset Management SGR S.p.A.

Hi, I have a graph with seven parallel horizontal lines. Is it possible to shade the area between two adjacent lines? Thank you in advance, Hannu

hi i'm looking for a gibbs sampling algorithm for R for the case of mixture of K normals, and in particular for the case of bivariate normals. i'd be grateful if anyone could send its own R-routine, at least for the univariate case. thank you in advance matteo

Dear all Currently, I'm implementing the generalized hyperbolic distribution into Splus. Unfortunately the Bessel function is not implemented in Splus. In R the Bessel function does exist but it is an internal function and I'm not able to look at the code. Is there any possibility to see the code of the Bessel function in R or does anybody has an implementation of the Bessel function in

Hi, I have adviced my students to install R and an editor on a USB drive for working in the computer class. With R everything works fine following these instructions: http://personal.bgsu.edu/~mrizzo/Rmisc/usbR.htm. But several editors (e.g., Tinn-R and WinEdt) require administrator rights. I have found out that Emacs (Vincent Goulet's Emacs for Windows Modified

Dear all, in the coming Winter Semester, I will be a teaching assistant for a course in Survival Analysis. My job will be to do the lab sessions. The software used for these lab sessions will be R. Most of the students have a background in social sciences and the only stats package they used so far is most likely SPSS. So I assume they might be quite surprised the first time they see R

I would be very grateful for any help from members of this list for what might be a simple problem... We are trying to simulate the behaviour of a clinical measurement in a series of computer experiments. This is simple enough to do in R if we assume the measurements to be Gaussian, but their empirical distribution has a much higher peak at the mean and the distribution has much longer tails.

For several years, I have been using Splus to analyze an ongoing series of datasets that have a bimodal distribution. I have used the following functions, in particular the ms() function, to estimate the parameters: two means, two standard deviations, and one proportion. Here is the code I've been using in S: btmp.bi <- function(vec, p, m1, m2, sd1, sd2) {
