Weighted median
Is there a weighted median function out there similar to weighted.mean() but for medians? If not, I'll try implement or port it myself. The need for a weighted median came from the following optimization problem: x* = arg_x min (a|x| + sum_{k=1}^n |x - b_k|) where a : is a *positive* real scalar x : is a real scalar n : is an integer b_k: are negative and positive scalars

Using summaryBy with weighted data
Dear Soren and R users: I am trying to use the summaryBy function with weights. Is this possible? An example that illustrates what I am trying to do follows: library(doBy) ## make up some data response = rnorm(100) group = c(rep(1,20), rep(2,20), rep(3,20), rep(4,20), rep(5,20)) weights = runif(100, 0, 1) mydata = data.frame(response,group,weights) ## run summaryBy wit...

why does lm() not allow for negative weights?
Dear List, Why do commonly used estimator functions (such as lm(), glm(), etc.) not allow negative case weights? I suspect that there is a good reason for this. Yet, I can see reasonable cases when one wants to use negative case weights. Take lm() for example: ### n <- 20 Y <- rnorm(n) X <- cbind(rep(1,n),runif(n),rnorm(n)) Weights <- rnorm(n) # Includes Pos and Neg Weights Weights # Now do W...

Problem with Weighted Variance in Hmisc
The function wtd.var(x,w) in Hmisc calculates the weighted variance of x where w are the weights. It appears to me that wtd.var(x,w) = var(x) if all of the weights are equal, but this does not appear to be the case. Can someone point out to me where I am going wrong here? Thanks.

weighted cumulative distribution with ggplot2
Dear all, I am trying to draw a weighted cumulative distribution (as defined here http://rss.acs.unt.edu/Rdoc/library/spatstat/html/ewcdf.html) with ggplot2 however the syntax temp<-qplot(X,weight=weight,data=data,stat = "ecdf", geom = "step",colour=factor(year)) seems not to produce exactly the right figure (the values seems higher at some points)...

Weighted descriptives by levels of another variables
...stics on groups of variables, including summary {stats}, describe {Hmisc}, and describe {psych}, but none that I have found is able to provided weighted descriptives of subsets of a data set (ex. descriptives for both males and females for age, where accurate results require use of sampling weights). Does anybody know of a function that does this? What I've looked at already: I have looked at describe.by {psych} which will give descriptives by levels of another variable (eg. mean ages of males and females), but does not accept sample weights. I have also looked at describe {Hmisc}...

working with summarized data
...--e.g., each row doesn't mean 1 observation. With that in mind, nearly all of the graphs and summary statistics are incorrect for my data, because they don't take into account the weight. **** For example "median" is incorrect, as the quantiles aren't calculated with weights: sum( weights[X < median(X)] ) / sum(weights) This should be 0.5... of course it's not. **** Unfortunately, it seems that most(all?) of R's graphics and summary statistic functions don't take a weight or frequency argument. (Fortunately the models do...) Am I completely mis...

Weighted variance function?
There is a R function to calculate weighted mean : weighted.mean() under stats package. Is there any direct R function for calculating weighted variance as well? [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

logistic regression weights problem
Hi All, I have a problem with weighted logistic regression. I have a number of SNPs and a case/control scenario, but not all genotypes are as "guaranteed" as others, so I am using weights to downsample the importance of individuals whose genotype has been heavily "inferred". My data is quite big, but with a dummy example: > status <- c(1,1,1,0,0) > SNPs <- matrix( c(1,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,1), ncol =3) > weight <- c(0.2, 0.1, 1, 0.8, 0.7) > glm(s...

how to best present concentrated data points/ ggplot2

What's the weight means in the dump of edge info from USR2?
Thank you, that is very helpful. And actually I do have a few further questions regarding this: 1. This weight is not the one specified in Subnet, this should be something related to the host, where can I manually configure this? 2. The weight value is ONLY take round trip latency as the measurement, or including CPU power and other factors into consideration? 3. I don't know how this

How does "rlm" in R decide its "w" weights for each IRLS iteration?
Hi all, I am also confused about the manual: a. The input arguments: wt.method are the weights case weights (giving the relative importance of case, so a weight of 2 means there are two of these) or the inverse of the variances, so a weight of two means this error is half as variable? w (optional) initial down-weighting for each case. init (optional) initial values for the coefficients OR...

Weighted least squares
...'m struggling with weighted least squares, where something that I had assumed to be true appears not to be the case. Take the following data set as an example: df <- data.frame(x = runif(100, 0, 100)) df$y <- df$x + 1 + rnorm(100, sd=15) I had expected that: summary(lm(y ~ x, data=df, weights=rep(2, 100))) summary(lm(y ~ x, data=rbind(df,df))) would be equivalent, but they are not. I suspect the difference is how the degrees of freedom is calculated - I had expected it to be sum(weights), but seems to be sum(weights > 0). This seems unintuitive to me: summary(lm(y ~ x, data=df, w...

Weights in binomial glm
I have some questions about the use of weights in binomial glm as I am not getting the results I would expect. In my case the weights I have can be seen as 'replicate weights'; one respondent i in my dataset corresponds to w[i] persons in the population. From the documentation of the glm method, I understand that the weights can indeed...
