structural equation modeling
Dear R-help, I am interested in using structural equation modeling. Just getting started with it, but I'm looking for suggestions for packages. As an aside, what's the best way for looking for packages at CRAN? -- Robert Terwilliger Biomedical Physicist Laboratory of Neurocognitive Development Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic University of Pittsburgh Medical Center Loeffler

Teaching R in 40 minutes. What should be included?
If _you_ were asked to give a 40 minute dog and pony show about R for a group of scientists ranging from physicists to geographers what would you put in? These people want to know what R can do. I'm thinking about something like: A. Overview B. data structures C. arithmetic and manipulation D. reading data E. linear models using glm F. graphics G. programming H. other tricks like rpart or time series analy...

Plot question
I have some data consisting of multiple trials of an experiment with different values of an independent variable. If I run R> plot(var,result) I get a scatterplot of result versus the independent variable var. If I run R> plot(as.factor(var),result) I get a boxplot of the distribution of result for each value of var. In this plot, each boxplot is labeled by the corresponding value of

ggplot2, geom_hline and facet_grid
Hi I have a long data set on which I want to do Bland-Altman style plots for each rhythm type Using ggplot2, when I use geom_hline with facet_grid I get an extra set of empty panels. I can't get it to do it with the "Diamonds" data supplied with the package so here is a (much abbreviated) example: > lvexs cvd_basestudy ecd_rhythm fixed_time variable_time 1 CBP05J02

ggplot2 histograms
Hi With ggplot2 I can very easily create beautiful histograms but I would like to put two histograms on the same plot. The histograms may be over-lapping. When they are overlapping the bars are shown on top of each other (so that the overall height is the sum of the two). Is there any way to get them to display overlapping (with smaller value in front, larger value behind) so that the overall

Peculiar behavior of attached objects
I've just discovered R and think it is terrific. I quickly reproduced results with a few lines of R commands that 7 years ago I had to do with a larger fortran code and many calls to NAG routines. (I'm mostly a computational plasma physicist, but occasionally delve into statistical analysis of data.) But I've come accross a very peculiar behavior of attached objects that cost me

ADAPTIVE QUADRATURE WEIGHTS AND NODES

Thanks to every one
...always reinstall a node (tftp / http) - To relieve the internal network printing, I create rpm packages that are installed on the nodes. All this happened about 3 years ago. Centos 1511 was established as a stable variant for the environment. It was one of my many different tasks in my work. The physicists and mathematicians who count there need high durations. My decision much on Centos because: - free - Maintaining until the year 2024, longer than the cluster will live. My way in the beginning was hard, because I had to learn everything from the scratch and I'm no longer the youngest, but...

comparing ARIMA model to data
hi, i am trying to teach myself about ARIMA models. i have followed examples from a number of sources and have more or less got the hang of how it works. i would like to compare the output from the fitted model to the original data. is this possible? or even a meaningful thing to do? to be clear, for example, having generated a fit to some data using > fit <- arima(LakeHuron, order = c(1,

lines and points without margin
hi, i am sure that this is a trivial question but i have not been able to find an answer by searching the mailing lists. i want to plot points on a graph, joined by lines. the command that i am using is points(x, y, type = "b", pch = 21) this plots nice open circles at the data points and draws lines between them. however, the lines do not come all the way up to the edge of the

LAPACK libraries improperly linked
I am not sure if this is an R development problem or not. I am starting with completely clean OS and and installing the latest version of R without trying to anything special but I am having trouble with the LAPACK library linking when I try to build packages that require them. I thought perhaps my problem may be if interest here. I just dumped Vista off a laptop formatted the disk and

[slightly off topic] Sweave with markdown
DeaR list, Has anyone tried to mix the Sweave paradigm with the Markdown[*] (and co.) syntax? Would this be hard to implement? My tiny understanding of Sweave is that one can define new drivers for the text part, while some functions that deal with the R code would not require any modification. Here's the reason I'm interested in Mardown for a driver. I've been orbiting

simple test of lme, questions on DF corrections
I''m a physicist working on fusion energy and dabble in statistics only occasionally, so please excuse gaps in my statistical knowledge. I''d appreciate any help that a real statistics expert could provide. Most people in my field do only very simple statistics, and I am trying to extend some work on multivariate linear regression to account for significant between-group

time function behavior for ts class objects
Hi all- I am trying to use the time function for ts class objects and do not understand the return value. I want to use it to set up a time trend in arima fits. It does not seem to return a correct linear sequence that matches the underlying time series. I am running: R version 2.8.1 (2008-12-22). For example: R> ## create a time series R> x <- rnorm(24) R> (xts <-

Running two R instances at the same time
Reposting from R-help: Dear R experts, please excuse me for writing to the mailing list without subscribing. I have a somewhat urgent problem that relates to R. I have to process large amounts of data with R - I'm in an international collaboration and the data processing protocol is fixed, that is a specific set of R commands has to be used. I wrote a perl program that manages creation of

LAPACK lib problem, lme4, lastest R, Linux
I just dumped Vista off a laptop and installed Ubuntu 10.10 (latest release) as the single operating system. I did all of the updates and then installed emacs and ess. Next I installed R by following the the usual instructions on the CRAN site. At this point all is working I am now in the process of installing the packages that I normally have installed. I am having a problem with the LAPACK

Most of the other methods should be pretty self-explanatory though. You should be able to drop it in and be on your way to a consistent, robust event model for all your objects :-) Enjoy!

effect size
Hi, Having searched google '[R] aov effect size' without any results I wonder if I not completely miss something. Is there any R function that calculates the effect size of an AOV's main effect or interaction effect? It should be related to the F's and the degree of freedom of the error, but the multitude in numbers in aov() baffle me a bit. Thanks, ---david

R: R: Hidden Markov Models
Thank you for your prompt answer. The breathing signal observations are the amplitude values as a function of time and phase. According to our model the hidden states are the different breathing types. Subjects, whose respiratiion process is regular, are likely to breathe, keeping the same cycle pattern/type, for many consecutive cycles. therefore dwelling in the same hidden state. The more
