For a financial data set with large variance, I'm trying to find the outlier threshold of one variable "x" over a two year period. I qqplot(x2001, x2002) and found a normal distribution. The latter part of the normal distribution did not look linear though. Is there a suitable method in R to find the outlier threshold of this variable from 2001 and 2002 in R?

In R, I'm imported a data frame of 2,321,123 by 4 called "dataF". I converted the data frame "dataF" to a matrix dataM <- as.matrix(dataF) Does R have an efficient routine to treat the special elements that contain "inf" in them. For example, can you separate the rows that have "inf" elements from the matrix into a separate matrix without

For the analysis of financial data wih a large variance, what is the best way to select an outlier threshold? Listed below, is there a best method to select an outlier threshold and how does R calculate it? In R, how do you find the outlier threshold through an interquartile range? In R, how do you find the outlier threshold using the hist command? In R, how do you find the outlier threshold

Hi All, In the script below, the importance measure for column 4 (ie MeanDecreaseGini) indicated "Inf" for V7. Running the getTree command showed that "V7" had been selected at least twice in one of the trees for Random Forest. So the "Inf" command was not generated as a result of dividing the sum of the decreases by 0. Any suggestions on what may be causing the

Hi All, My question is in regards to an error generated when using randomForest in R. Is there a special way to format the data in order to avoid this error, or am I completely confused on what the error implies? "Error in randomForest.default(m, y, ...) : Can not handle categorical predictors with more than 32 categories." This is generated from the command line: >
