How do you impute missing data using Latent Class Model (poLCA package)
...ose not to use Multiple Imputation(MI) is because according to [http://blogs.iq.harvard.edu/sss/archives/2008/09/a_handy_trick_f.shtml] "MI packages assume the Multivariate Normal Distribution which may not hold for certain types of categorical and binary data. Yucel Recai, Yulei He, and Alan Zaslavsky point out in their May 2008 article in The American Statistician, naive rounding MI imputations can bias estimates, particularly when the underlying data are asymmetric or multimodal." However instead of using Yucel Recai, Yulei He, and Alan Zaslavsky's rounding strategy [ http://amstat....

truncated normal
Does anyone know of an R-function that will generate an observation from a truncated normal (left or right) with a mu and sigma2? Any correspondence would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [S] Multinomial

Estimating the standard error when you have sampling weights.
Hi, Where can I find information ( freely available on the Internet , and also books or other sources ) on how having sampling weights changes the calculation of the standard error (of means and proportions)? How good is R for this type of procedure? And SAS? thanks Robert [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

random sampling with some limitive conditions?
I want to gain thousands of random sampling data by randomizing the presence-absence data. Meantime, one important limition is that the row and column sums must be fixed. For example, the data "tst" is following: site1 site2 site3 site4 site5 site6 site7 site8 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0

Is there any difference between <- and =
Dear R-helpers: I have a question related to <- and =. I saw very experienced R programmers use = rather than <- quite consistently. However, I heard from others that do not use = but always stick to <- when assigning valuese. I personally like = because I was using Matabl, But, would like to receive expert opinion to avoid potential trouble. Many thanks in advance. -Sean

Reasons to Use R
Dear All, The institute I work for is organizing an internal workshop for High Performance Computing (HPC). I am planning to attend it and talk a bit about fluid dynamics, but there is also quite a lot of interest devoted to data post-processing and management of huge data sets. A lot of people are interested in image processing/pattern recognition and statistic applied to geography/ecology, but I
