Dear all, I am considering a problem related to density regression. After we got the estimation of probability density function f(x), how can we estimate the mode of that population? Does the sm package support mode estimation? If not, is there any other function in R can estimate the mode according to the estimation of pdf f(x)? Univariate case is ok. If the function further support higher

Prof. Marron's SiZer maps may also be of interest, but AFAIK the code is in Matlab only. Andy From: Dan Rabosky > > > Hello... > > Is it possible to use "density"...

Hello, I am a graduate student at UNC Chapel Hill, and I am attempting to create a SiZer plot for a nonparametric analysis. I have found the file to use this program in Matlab, however I was hoping to find a package to use this in R. Does anyone know of a package that can create this type of graph? Thanks, Stephanie

I want to take the first row of each unique ID value from a data frame. For instance > ddTable <- data.frame(Id=c(1,1,2,2),name=c("Paul","Joe","Bob","Larry")) I want a dataset that is Id Name 1 Paul 2 Bob > unique(ddTable) Will give me all 4 rows, and > unique(ddTable$Id) Will give me c(1,2), but not accompanied by the name column.
