Hi, In the last meeting, X.Org Foundation board has decided that XDC 2020 will be a virtual conference, given the uncertain COVID-19 situation in Europe by September, including the possibility of a second wave, outbreaks and travel restrictions, either in Poland or in other countries. XDC 2020 organization team agrees on this decision and it volunteered to organize our first virtual XDC! We would like to announce as well that the new CFP deadline is Sunday July 19th 2020. Don't forget to submit your talk, dem...

hello R-world, according to the strucchange package .pdf, "all procedures in this package are concerned with testing or assessing deviations from stability in the classical linear regression model." i'd like to test/assess deviations from stability in the Poisson model. is there a way to modify the strucchange package to suit my purposes, or should i use be using another

Dear friends: I have just read an article entitled " Monitoring of nosocomial invasive aspergillosis and early evidence of an outbreak using cumulative sum tests (CUSUM)", which is published in "Clinical Microbiology and Infection". We have great need to estimate the fluctuation of incidence of IFI in our hospital. But I don't know the details of the stastical method and

Hello, I have been looking for a Windows alternative for File & Print servers. Currently, we are using Win 2003. Patching overhead and virus outbreaks are becoming problematic with reducing head count. I have looked at the site, but there is no reference to 'better or the same as Win2003' only NT is referenced. I'm trying to put a business case together to convince management that this is a viable alternate strategy for the long term...

Dear all, It is my understanding that using 'importFrom' in the NAMESPACE of a package allows to avoid conflicts between different packages defining objects with identical names. However, I can still see conflicts while loading the package using 'library'. Here is a toy example, with a package 'foo' importing 'as.igraph' from the igraph package, and 'nj'

The 2020 EuroLLVM Developers’ Meeting is cancelled because of COVID-19. We are sorry to announce that the 2020 EuroLLVM Developers’ Meeting is cancelled due to the COVID-19 outbreak. This was not a decision we took lightly. Here are the reasons we feel it is best to cancel EuroLLVM 2020. 1. We feel this is the responsible and right thing to do to ensure the health of all that attend

...s overall level of security. At risk of bringing out some *actual* Internet nutters, the question of minimum password security levels is directly analogous to that of vaccination. When a large population stops vaccinating, we start seeing previously-defeated diseases coming back, like the measles outbreaks in California and rural Australia: http://goo.gl/7caiui http://goo.gl/8lT8Pd Polio was almost completely eradicated, but it?s starting to come back in the middle east after the CIA used a fake vaccination campaign as a pretext to try to get into bin Laden?s Pakistan compound: http://...

Dear all We are currently seeking a post-doctoral research assistant in data science and statistical modelling at the University of Copenhagen (Frederiksberg campus). This is an exciting opportunity for someone with strong quantitative skills to join a group of ?data nerds? working on the frontline of human and animal health, and with privileged access to data sources including those relevant to

Dear R Community, I would like to announce the package "surveillance", which provides methods for the surveillance of count data time series originating from the routine collection of public health data. The package addresses epidemiologists and statisticians working with routine surveillance, but it also offers an infrastructure for developers of new detection algorithms. Implemented

Hi all I seem to have fallen at the first hurdle with my analysis, I have a set of binary disease outbreak data linked to a large number of landscape metrics variables and environmental variables which I would like to as predictor variables in a Least Angle Logistic Regression using the glars.fit.s function in the glars package (my data exhibits some multicollinearity hence the LARS) but when I

Dear R community, I'm working with PCA and CCA methods, and I have a theoretical question. Why is it necesary to have more temporal values than variables when the CCA O PCA are going to be used? Could you advise to me some any paper about it? Thanks in advance, [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R addicts, Back in 2006, I posted the proposition for a tweak of the Sweave driver so that PNG figures can be produced instead of eps/pdf : https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2006-March/102122.html The amount of code modified is tiny (it was designed to induce minimal changes to the official code), but so far the driver seems to have been useful to a number of users. From 2006 on,

Linked below are details about a new outbreak of hijacked linux web servers that dispense malware. http://blog.unmaskparasites.com/2009/09/11/dynamic-dns-and-botnet-of-zombie-web-servers/ I would highly recommend that you use nmap to scan all your Linux webservers that are connected to the Internet to see if they are listening on port 8080. The best I can tell, there are no articles concerning

sending a delete request does actually delete the file and does not move it into the recycle bin. This is also an async process. There is no blocking to wait for the operation to complete or return. It is simply an event. Using this method, under windows, to scan for a virus will not work. Since this mechanism is event driver, you can not block the FSD request to wait for the scan to complete. It

With this setup the higher ups will like it somewhat better than running the 'ol midnight cron job of clamscan'.Also might mention,in the last 3 years since going to Clamav on all of our windersz boxes at school we have not had any "outbreaks" of viruses. I think this addition will be very nice as a transparent scanning piece,for all files coming and going on the file server. Other than having to compile it against whatever version of Samba you are running it was very easy, lightweight to setup.Couldn't find very many rpm's...

I am just starting on the list! I have a little question: I tried Wonder Shaper and i love it! The uploads no more mess with my downloads. Now i really can get all of my ADSL! But, i run wondershaper manually everytime when system reboots: ./wshaper I use RH8 and here dont have a /etc/ppp/ip-up.d to put the configuration file, like README say to me to do. Somone know where i need to put it? Or

With the increased traffic as of late, I'm wondering if it is time to split the list again. Specifically I am wondering if it should be split along the various VoIP protocols and zap hardware, then leave a general list that does configuration other than VoIP related? The hope is that those asking SIP or H323 questions could get help from the various supporters while the main list can deal
