...stimate prediction interval using GAM? I looked through ?gam, ?predict.gam etc and the mgcv.pdf Simon Wood. I found it can calculate confidence interval but not clear if I can get it to calculate prediction interval. I read "Inference for GAMs is difficult and somewhat contentious." in Kuhnert and Venable An Introduction to R, and wondering why and if that is the reason that current version of mgcv does not provide prediction interval. I am thinking about GAM because ggplot2 uses it to fit the data and it looks working well. There are many other models and wondering what is can be a go...

Hi all, I am trying to use GAM to work on some data... Are there any resources providing hands-on tutorial/guide on how to do GAM on data in R? Specifically, I am not sure about which model to choose, and smooth models with which effective degree-of-freedom shall I use... I knew there is a book titled: GAM: an introduction using R. Unfornately our local library does not have it... so that's

any useful books for learning the R statistical software? are they pricey? and if the books recommended focus on S, how compatible will they be for someone learning R? thank you in advance for your help. P.S. specialized survey statistical procedures? Is R good at that? [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Is there a good windows-based JavaScript compressor which will reliably compress script aculo and prototype?

I want to build a sortable list that updates the server when the item is dropped into its new position. How to create a sortable list is clear, but I''m looking for an example of how to integrate this with the server side. Are there any examples or tutorials around? I''m working in a java environment. Thanks, Jamie

Dear all Nobody responded to my previous post so far so I try with more offending subject. I just encountered a strange problem with nls formula. I tried to use nls in cycle but I was not successful. I traced the problem to some parse command. Here is an example DF<-data.frame(x=1:10, y=3*(1:10)^.5+rnorm(10)) coef(lm(log(DF[,2])~log(DF[,1]))) (Intercept) log(DF[, 1]) 0.7437320

This is way OT, but here goes... I''ve had an iBook for 2 days now and am debugging a web built with prototype/script aculo / windows / etc... I have no real experience on a Mac. Occasionally, there''s no better way to debug JavaScript than an alert in a loop... Once I have the information information I want from the alert, the loop may want to execute another 300 times. I

Does anyone know of a cross browser solution to print a page/url after a user clicks a button? Currently, I''m using a "hidden" iframe to do my bidding. But from my experience, IE requires that the iframe''s src attribute be set initially to the url, in order for the page to open properly. I wasn''t able to add the iframe to the page dynamically, either. So

Hi *, we are using prototype in Apache MyFaces as our javascript library of choice. Recently, there has been much discussion on our mailing list as to the usability of prototype in a dynamic environments where several javascript libraries are used. The critics of prototype argue that the prototype objects are not namespaced - and that prototype extends basic javascript-objects with method names

Hello, I am trying to find a way to implement ajax with a given socket server. Basically I have a support system that is fully integrated, but I can not stand the "JAVA" chat client because of the security warning and load time. So I figured I would look towards ajax especially since it has XML capabilites. I have the whitepaper on the socket server, this socket server is on the same

I need a single boolean which would be "globally" accessible to all instances of a class. Seems like the boolean should be in the class prototype, but I was troubled by the difficulty of setting the prototype boolean to true. Maybe I''m missing something? var MyObject = Class.create(); MyObject.prototype = { bSwitch: false, ... other methods and properties } var oMyOb1

Has anyone run into a scenerio where this is a problem? https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=302622 I had assumed that any ajax type of request would/should return a response of content-type xml, but I can see that is not always the case. I know rico works off of the responseXML portion , which would be broken by setting content-type to text/plain. How are other people dealing with
