Forming Portfolios for Fama / French Regression
Hi mates, I have a problem. I am new to R and want to conduct the Fama/French asset pricing test. As I am from Germany, I cannot use the already computed factors from French's website, but need to compute them myself. So I have to sort a number of stocks into different portfolios using one factor, then subdivide these portfolios into several more using another factor, then compute portfolio

Inf in nnet final value for validation data
Hi, I use nnet for my classification problem and have a problem concerning the calculation of the final value for my validation data.(nnet only calculates the final value for the training data). I made my own final value formula (for the training data I get the same value as nnet): # prob-matrix pmatrix <- cat*fittedValues tmp <- rowSums(pmatrix) # -log likelihood

compute differences
Hi, I have a problem. I have a data frame looking like: ID val A? .3 B? 1.2 C? 3.4 D? 2.2 E? 2.0 I need to CREATE the following TABLE: CASE??

Comparing R and SAs
Hi: For those of you who are adept at both SAS and R, I have the following questions: a) What are some reasons / tasks for which you would use R over SAS and vice versa? b) What are some things for which R is a must have that SAS cannot fulfill the requirements? I am on the ramp up on both of them. The general feeling that I am getting by following this group is that R updates to the product are

Backpropagation to adjust weights in a neural net when receiving new training examples
I want to create a neural network, and then everytime it receives new data, instead of creating a new nnet, i want to use a backpropagation algorithm to adjust the weights in the already created nn. I'm using nnet package, I know that nn$wts gives the weights, but I cant find out which weights belong to which conections so I could implement the backpropagation algorithm myself. But if anyone

Neural Network resource
Hi All, I am trying to learn Neural Networks. I found that R has packages which can help build Neural Nets - the popular one being AMORE package. Is there any book / resource available which guides us in this subject using the AMORE package? Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks, Indrajit

Recursive partitioning algorithms in R vs. alia
Dear R-helpers, I had a conversation with a guy working in a "business intelligence" department at a major Spanish bank. They rely on recursive partitioning methods to rank customers according to certain criteria. They use both SAS EM and Salford Systems' CART. I have used package R part in the past, but I could not provide any kind of feature comparison or the like as I have no
