Hello, I am using odesolve to simulate a group of people moving through time and transmitting infections to one another. In Matlab, there is a NonNegative option which tells the Matlab solver to keep the vector elements of the ODE solution non-negative at all times. What is the right way to do this in R? Thanks, Jeremy P.S., Below is a simplified version of the code I use to try to do this,

Hello, I am very new to R. I would like to plot astronomy data by right ascension, declination, and various "distance" values, such as redshift and comoving distance, in 3D. Is there any 3D polar plotting functions? I can't seam to locate any information on whether it exists or not.

Hi, I have been looking through all packages but I cannot find a routine for LAD-regression (L1-norm-regression). Is there none? Willi

Hello! I need to use Kruskal-Wallis test and post-hoc test (Dunn's test) for my data. But when I searched around, I only found this function: kruskal.test. But nothing for Dunn's test. So I started to write one myself. But I do not know how to count ties in the data frame. I can use for loops but it seems long and unnecessary since the rank function actually knows the ties. So

I'm just learning R (I don't know any other programming languages), and I have a question. I am trying to figure out how to ask for user input (say, a set of 3 numbers) then put those numbers into an array. I've looked around, but I haven't been able to find any answers that I understand. Thanks!

hi, r users i have a problem with KNN. i have 2 datasets, X0 and X1. >dim(X0) >1471*13 dim(X1) >5221*13 and for every instances in the dataset X1, i want to find the nearest neighbour(1nn) in the dataset X0. and i dont have the true classifications of dataset X1. but the function knn() need true classifications(cl) to do prediction. i just curious if there are some other function

Hello, How do I implement a cardinality constraint with constrOptim? I want to minimize (least square) a%*%x = 4 subject to x1<2 x2<1 x3<4 count(x1, x2, x3)= 2 (cardinality constraint) Is there a way to specify binary integer variables with constrOptim? Here's my code so far: a <-matrix(1:3,1,3) fr <- function(x) { (a%*%x-4)^2 }

Normal 0 21 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Dear R-helpers,   I was wondering whether there are any good books and/or website links that introduce mark-recapture analysis in R. In

Function DEoptim in package DEoptim for differential evolution defines an optional parameter fnMap: fnMap "an optional function that will be run after each population is created, but before the population is passed to the objective function. This allows the user to impose integer/cardinality constriants." Unfortunately, there is no further documentation decribing the kind of

Hi all, May i know does R has packages or code to run "Bayesian Relative Survival Analysis"? I have look through Bayesian Survival Analysis(2001) by Joseph George Ibrahim<http://www.google.com/search?tbo=p&tbm=bks&q=inauthor:%22Joseph+George+Ibrahim%22>, Ming-Hui Chen<http://www.google.com/search?tbo=p&tbm=bks&q=inauthor:%22Ming-Hui+Chen%22>, Debajyoti

Is there a function in R that will allow me to estimate the sample size required from count data (poisson data?), given the known variance and desired margin of error and confidence interval? My specific data set will be based on a survey of hikers that will be asked about the number of animals of species 'x' they observed during a given period. I need to know the number of hikers

Dear R users, I'm trying to extract from a given matrix (GROUP) the coordinates of the vertices of the different groups (i.e. 3, 7, 1 . . .) to plot the polygons to delineate the area in which each group "wins" and colour it diferentially. I can make a simple point plot, but I would like to add polygons with full colored area. The example is with a 5x5 matrix, but I'm working

Dear R members, I would like to know if there is a stepwise function that gives LRT value instaed of AIC? thanks in advance, Luciana Pozzi CENPAT-CONICET Argentina [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello everybody, after searching around for quite some time, I haven't been able to find a package that provides a function to compute the Windorized mean and variance. Also I haven't found a function that computes the trimmed variance. Is there any such package around? thanks, Roberto

Hi there - I am new to R, so perhaps this is an old question. I am looking to find the source code for the wald.test function so I can tune it for my own needs. Where do I find it? I do not want to change wald.test. Rather, I want to find it and make a new function, say wald.test.new. thanks Andrew Martin University of Delaware [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I'm a new R user and am looking for an R equivalent to the Matlab 'cp2tform' function (see: http://www.mathworks.com/help/toolbox/images/ref/cp2tform.html). cp2tform accepts pairs of 2D control points and produces a least-squares optimized spatial transformation from one set of points to the other. Specifically, I'm looking to produce the coefficients of a 3rd order polynomial

Using Trellis, am successfully setting up a number of panels (25) in which I have two box and violin plots. I would like to colour - one plot as RED and the other as BLUE (in each panel). I can do that with the box plots, but the violin density areas just take on one colour. My basic call is as follows: bwplot(rmsd ~ file | code, data=spread_data.filtered, panel = function(...,
