Dear all, I want to save the p-value from mshapiro.test(mvnormtest). But mshapiro.test(mvnormtest) gives a list with class "htest" containing statistic, p.value, method and data.name as a whole. How do I save only p-value from the result? Thanks a lot!

Hi, I have a question about the p-value of mshapiro test. I simulated data from bivariate normal 1000 times and used mshapiro test to see how many times the test would reject the null hypothesis when the p-value is 0.05. The answer should be around 50 since the p-value is 0.05. But I got a much higher value. Here is the R code I used and the result....

Hello, I have a question about multivariate Shapiro-Wilks test. I tried to analyze if the data I have are multivariate normal, or how far they are from being multivariate normal. However, any time I did >mshapiro.test(mydata) I get the message: Error in solve.default(R %*% t(R), tol = 1e-18) : system is computationally singular: reciprocal condition number = 5.38814e-021 I tried also to generate some multivariate normal data and to see how the test would be working on it. So I did: a <- mvrno...

Hello all, I tried several experiments with the mshapiro.test package in R and compared it with the energy package to test for multivariate normality and find that the mshapiro.test is not consistent which is a bit concerning and has suspicious behavior. On the other hand the energy test seems to be a more appropriate test for testing multivariate norma...

Dear all, I have a multivariate dataset containing 100,000 or more points. I want find the p-value for the dataset of points coming from a particular multivariate normal distribution With mean vector u Covariance matrix s2 So H0: points ~ MVN( u, s2) H1: points not ~ MVN( u, s2) How do I find the p-value in R? To me this is a likelihood ratio test problem. In H0 the parameters are

...nt test to check normality and multinormality in my dataset, but I don´t know which test is better. To verify univariate normality I checked: shapiro.test, cvm.test, ad.test, lillie.test, sf.test or jaque.bera.test and To verify multivariate normal distribution I use mardia, mvShapiro.Test, mvsf, mshapiro.test, mvnorm.e. I have a dataset with almost 1000 data and 9 variables, in both cases the result is non-normality. For this reason, I transformed data with bcPower function and I want to check normality again. I really appreciate your help. Thanks. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello, Could someone help me to explain the VERY big difference in applying two tests on multivariate normality: library(mvnormtest) data(EuStockMarkets) mshapiro.test(t(EuStockMarkets[15:29,1:4])) Shapiro-Wilk normality test data: Z W = 0.8161, p-value = 0.005955 and library(energy) mvnorm.etest( EuStockMarkets[15:29,1:4] ) Energy test of multivariate normality: estimated parameters data: x, sample size 15, dimension 4, replicates...

is there any function under R that allows me to test the normality of my 92 sumples? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/multinormality-tp17717230p17717230.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

My stat textbook tells me that using Shapiro-Wilk test for each variable one by one is not equal to a test for multivariate normality as a whole. Does R have a function of testing for multivariate normality? Thanks.

Dear all, I got this error message > library(dprep) > mardia(Savg) Error in cov(data) : 'x' is empty But with the same data, I got > library(mvnormtest) > mshapiro.test(Savg) Shapiro-Wilk normality test data: Z W = 0.9411, p-value = 0.6739 What does the error message "Error in cov(data) : 'x' is empty" mean? Thanks a lot! Jiao

Dear All,   I often have to work with certain models in which I try to "reproduce" a distribution the best I can with very little known information avaible. Is there a package or function in R that could best reproduce a probability distribution using only the mean, median and SD values availble without knowing the actual distribution type to begin with and/or the covariance matrix (for
