Hi, I am very new to R and I am trying to write KML files. I am running R-2.13.1 and I have the following packages: - AKIMA - RGDAL - RSAGA - SP I was trying to run the simple example that I found at the following web page: http://spatial-analyst.net/wiki/index.php?title=Export_maps_to_GE The lines that I can run are: data(meuse.grid)

Hello, I discovered SAGA, an interesting free GIS, a few days ago and now, I would like to use it from within R 2.6.2 using the RSAGA package. I read the documentation for this package and thought that I understood it correctly for trying to call some of the SAGA modules. For getting the information on the usage of and arguments required by the SAGA command line "Import Binary Raw

Hi all, I've got clusters and would like to match individual records to each cluster based on a sum of squares deviation. For each cluster and individual, I've got 50 variables to use (measured in the same way). Matrix 1 is individuals and is 25000x50. Matrix 2 is the cluster centroids and is 100x50. The same variables are found in each matrix in the same order. I'd like to

Dear R community, I would be greatful if somebody could shed light on the following. I have created a set of 6 points to check how centroid agglomeration works in cluster analysis: > Y <- data.frame(x=c(-1,1,1,-1,10,12),y=c(1,1,-1,-1,0,0)) It is quite intuitive to understand that the last clusters to be joined will be {1,2,3,4} with {5,6}. Now, the centroid for the first cluster has

After ordering the table of membership degrees , i must get the difference between the first and second coloumns , between the first and second largest membership degree of object i. This for K=2,K=3,....to K.max=6. This difference is multiplyed by the Crisp silhouette index vector (si). Too it dependending on K=2,...,K.max=6; the result divided by the sum of these differences I need a final

Hi, I''m using heatmap.2 to cluster my data, using the centroid method for clustering and the maximum method for calculating the distance matrix: library("gplots") library("RColorBrewer") test <- matrix(c(0.96, 0.07, 0.97, 0.98, 0.50, 0.28, 0.29, 0.77, 0.08, 0.96, 0.51, 0.51, 0.14, 0.19, 0.41, 0.51), ncol=4, byrow=TRUE)

Helo there. I am using kmeans of base package to cluster my customers. As the results of kmeans is dependent on the initial centroid, may I know: 1) how can we specify the centroid in the R function? (I don't want random starting pt) 2) how to determine the optimal (if not, a good) centroid to start with? (I am not after the fixed seed solution as it only ensure that the

Dear R users, I have noted a difference in the merge distances given by hclust using centroid method. For the following data: x<-c(1009.9,1012.5,1011.1,1011.8,1009.3,1010.6) and using Euclidean distance, hclust using centroid method gives the following results: > x.dist<-dist(x) > x.aah<-hclust(x.dist,method="centroid") > x.aah$merge [,1] [,2] [1,] -3 -6

Dear UseRs,i want to find centroid of clusters, which i generated by hclust. Is there a way doing that? i took mean to elements in each cluster to get centroid but i am not sure if i am right? thanks in advanceeliza [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear All, I am using a specific approach for my master thesis. In essence, a supervised reclassification is used as an intermediate step to find chemical parameters which are able to reclassify defined groups. These variables will be used in a next step where location and scale estimators of the groups are important. Traditionally linear discriminant analysis is used for reclassification which

Hi, How can I calculate and mark each group centroid in a linear discriminant analysis plot (using ggplot2)? Script: ## originate from http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/LDA-and-confidence-ellipse-td4671308.html require(MASS) require(ggplot2) iris.lda<-lda(Species ~ Sepal.Length + Sepal.Width + Petal.Length + Petal.Width, data = iris) LD1<-predict(iris.lda)$x[,1]

Dear everybody! In the function hclust, at each stage distances between clusters are recomputed by the Lance-Williams dissimilarity update formula according to the particular clustering method being used. Using "centroid" method, Lance-Williams recurrence formula works properly only for euclidean distance. How is it possible to use properly centroid method with manhattan distance ?

There seems to be a bug in hclust (package mva) for clustering methods 'median' and 'centroid'. I have written a clustering program in C and discovered that the results for 'median' differ from those of hclust in R. I used a third program, written by someone else in Pascal, and that program agrees with the output of my program. I found yet another clustering program that

Dear Researchers, I wrote two function to fit a circle using noisy data. 1- the fitCircle() is derived from MATLAB code of * zhak Bucher* from the link http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/5557-circle-fit/content/circfit.m 2- the CircleFitByPratt() from MATLAB code of *Nikolai Chernov *from the link

Dear Help List, Thanks in advance for reading...I hope my questions are not too ignorant. I have an experiment looking at evolution of wing size [centroid] in fruitflies and the effect of 6 different experimental treatments [treatment]. I have five replicate populations [replic] in each treatment and have reared the flies in two different temperatures [cond] to assay the wing size, making

I have obtained shapefiles for Indian states from here: http://www.maptell.com/index.php?option=com_remository&Itemid=159&func=fileinfo&filecatid=115&parent=category Problem: I want to extract centroid coordinates for each State, but there is some coding problem with the shapefiles that prevents this. #Code: #After extracting the shapefiles from the india_state.zip file, then:

Hello, I need to calculate the centroids of some spatial polygons that I have placed into a Polygons-class object. Is the labeling point in the Polygons-class the centroid of the polygon? Thank you for your help.

Hi, I'm trying to make a partial plot with package randomForest in R. After I perform my random forest object I type partialPlot(data.rforest, pred.data=act2, x.var=centroid, "C") where data.rforest is my randomforest object, act2 is the original dataset, centroid is one of the predictor and C is one of the classes in my response variable. Whatever predictor or response class I

Hey, all, I'm trying to construct a centroid plot using canonical values from a MANOVA. I know that from the summary.manova object you can get Eigenvalues, and the H and E matrices (from SS$Treatment and SS$Residuals), but I am at a loss to get the loadings for the canonical values, nor values for the centroid centers and radii. Is there a package that does this that I am just missing,
