My Background: 1-C# programmer. 2-Programmed directly using IMSL (Now Visual Numerics). 3- Used in past SPSS and Statistica. I put together a list but would like to pick the "best of" and avoid redundancy. Any suggestions on these books would be helpful (i.e. too much

Can anyone please tell whether there is any R function to act as "VEC" and "VECH" operator on Matrix? Yes of course, I can write a user-defined-function for that or else, I can put dim(mat) <- NULL. However I am looking for some R function. Your help will be highly appreciated. Regards, -- View this message in context:

Hi folks, Both plotrix and prettyR have been updated. plotrix now has the "Matlab" style dotplot that was requested not long ago on the list, provided by that intrepid duo, Barry Rowlingson and Rolf Turner. Mike Cheetham has contributed an implementation of the Piper diagram, also in response to a request. prettyR has finally learned how to display SPSS value labels in the xtab and

I need to write a C# program to create and display Cusum chart from any of the packages, spc, qcc or strucchange. Issues: 1-The data resides in a MS SQL Database. The C# program will handle obtaining the data for the requisite types of samples. Assistance needed on: 1-How can I call the cusum capabilities of any of the above packages and pass the data to the cusum function and plot? 2-How

Dear fellow R Users: I am doing a Cholesky decomposition on a correlation matrix and get error message the matrix is not semi-definite. Does anyone know: 1- a work around to this issue? 2- Is there any approach to try and figure out what vector might be co-linear with another in thr Matrix? 3- any way to perturb the data to work around this? Thanks for any suggestions.

I know, this is a forum about R. But I am so desperate of this problem (BTW, anyone knows any good Statistics/Math forum to post question like this?): A and B are both n x n positive definite matrix. Denote A > B, if A - B is positive definite. I know this is true: if A > B, then A^{-1} < B^{-1}. But how to prove this? I tried to diagonalize A and B, but since they can have different

Hello, I want to add text annotation about correlation on "pairs" plots. I found that I could pass a function to the "panel" argument of pairs : panel.annot <- function(x, y, ...) { points(x, y, ...) c <- cor.test(x, y) legend("topleft", legend=substitute(rho == r, list(r=sprintf("%.2f", c$estimate))), bty="n") } And then :

This might not be the correct forum for this question for there might be some flaws in my logic so the R function I'm looking for might not be the correct, but I know there?s a lot of smart people in this forum so please correct me if I'm wrong. I have been googling and searching in this forum for something useful but so far I'm out of luck. This is the background to my problem. I

I am trying to learn how to format Ascii data files for scan or read into R. Precisely for a quickie project, I found some code (at end of this email) to do exactly what I need: To cluster and graph a dendrogram from package (stats). I am stuck on how to format a text file to run the script. I looked at the dataset USArrests (which would be replaced by my data and labels) using UltraEdit. That

I having problem with dendrogram leaf names when I read a tab delimited file into dataframe; I have a text file, tab delimited, using read.table into a data frame as follows: > test1<-read.table("c:\\R\\data\\Tremont4.txt", header=TRUE, sep="\t") When I do this the "test1" data frame is picking up my first column names as part of the data and not the case
