similar to: Bug in truncgof package?

Dear Carlos, Duncan and everyone You may have already sorted the matter by now, but since I have not seen anything posted since Duncan's reply, here I go. I apologize in advance for the spam, if it turns out I've missed some post. I think the test and the implementation of the truncgof package are just fine. I've done Carlos' experiment (repeatedly generating samples and testing

Hola Ruben, Sí precisamente es lo que comentas, en matemáticas no se suele llamar bucketización (este término se emplea más en informática) sino datos agrupados. Pero la idea es la que tu mismo dices. Respecto a las gráficas que has puesto, me han aclarado mucho sobre el tema, gracias. Si realizo lo mismo, por ejemplo con nbucket=1000 sigo obteniendo un p-valor de 1. Es decir, que casi le

Dear All I am trying to replicate a numerical application (not computed on R) from an article. Using, ks.test() I computed the exact D value shown in the article but the p-values I obtain are quite different from the one shown in the article. The tests are performed on a sample of 37 values (please see "[0] DATA" below) for truncated Exponential, Pareto and truncated LogNormal

Hi list, Does anyone know the code behind rlnorm(n, meanlog = 0, sdlog = 1)? I am going to write it in c#. thanks Alireza [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello R-Experts, I want to calculate values like 15^200 or 17^300 in R. In normal case it can calculate the small values of b (a^b). I have fixed width = 10000 and digits = 22 but still answers are Inf. How to deal the cases like these? Thanks in advance. Regards, rehena [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

rlnorm takes two 'shaping' parameters: meanlog and sdlog. meanlog would appear from the documentation to be the log of the mean. eg if the desired mean is 1 then meanlog=0. So to generate random values that fit a lognormal distribution I would do this: rlnorm(N , meanlog = log(mean) , sdlog = log(sd)) But when I check the mean I don't get it when sdlog>0. Interestingly I

Hi All, Did anyone else have a problem like this? I am sorry if its a small issue, I seem to not understand what to do to get rid of this error. > Sigma [1] 0.1939025 > MuRest [1] 8.512772 > TauZero [1] 0.1 > curve(qlnorm(x,-TauZero+MuRest, Sigma,lower.tail=F), xlim=c(4000,9000), ylim=c(0,.99),xlab="", ylab="") Warning message: In qlnorm(p, meanlog, sdlog,

Hello, I tried to fit a lognormal distribution by using optim. But sadly the output seems to be incorrect. Who can tell me where the "bug" is? test = rlnorm(100,5,3) logL = function(parm, x,...) -sum(log(dlnorm(x,parm,...))) start = list(meanlog=5, sdlog=3) optim(start,logL,x=test)$par Carsten.

Dear all, Is there a way to generate K numbers of integer (K = 10^6). The maximum value of the integer is 200,000 and minimum is 1. And the occurrences of this integer follows a lognormal distribution. - Gundala Viswanath Jakarta - Indonesia

I am trying to fit a lognormal distribution to a set of data and test its goodness of fit with regard to predicted values. I managed to get so far: > y <- c(2,6,2,3,6,7,6,10,11,6,12,9,15,11,15,8,9,12,6,5) > library(MASS) > fitdistr(y,"lognormal",start=list(meanlog=0.1,sdlog=0.1)) meanlog sdlog 1.94810515 0.57091032 (0.12765945) (0.09034437) But I would

Dear all, I have wrote some sample code that would allow me easier fit fast many distributions and check which of the fits performs better. My sample code (that you can of course execute it looks like that) distrList<-list(   "exponential",  "geometric", "log-normal",  "normal", "Poisson") fitfunction<-function(Type,x){     return

Hi! I 've a problem to have a lognorm distribution with mean=1 and var (or sigma)=1. rlnorm(1000,0,0) rlnorm(1000,1,1) rlnorm(1000,0,1) .... ? Can you help me?

Dear all, I have a code that generates data vectors within R. For example assume: z <- rlnorm(1000, meanlog = 0, sdlog = 1) Every time a vector has been generated I would like to export it into a csv file. So my idea is something as follows: for (i in 1:100) { z <- rlnorm(1000, meanlog = 0, sdlog = 1) write.csv(z, "c:/z_i.csv") Where "z_i.csv" is a filename that is

Hi R lovers! I'd like to know how to use the parameter 'start' in the function fitdistr() obviously I have to provide the initial value of the parameter to optimize except in the case of a certain set of given distribution Indeed according to the help file for fitdistr " For the following named distributions, reasonable starting values will be computed if `start'

Hello, I have a question regarding the use of an offset term with survreg(), in the Survival library. In particular, I am trying to figure out on what scale the offset term should be. Here's a simple example with no censoring and no coefficients: --------- y = rlnorm(1000, meanlog = 10, sdlog = 2) delta = rep(1, 1000) int = rep(1, 1000) survreg(Surv(y,delta)~offset(10*int), dist =

Hi, I'm trying to evaluate a Monte Carlo p-value (using truncgof package) on a left truncated sample. >From an empirical sample I've estimated a generalized pareto distribution parameters (xi, beta, threshold) (I've used fExtremes pkg). I'm in doubt on what of the following command is the most appropriate: Let: x<-sample t<-threshold xt<-x[x>t] xihat<-gpdFit(x,

Dear All, I know that this topic has been already discussed on this list (see e.g. http://markmail.org/message/bq2bdxwblwl4rpgf?q=r+fit+truncated+lognormal&page=1&refer=2ufc4fb2eftfwwml#query:r%20fit%20truncated%20lognormal+page:1+mid:7wxgkdxhixotorr5+state:results for the case of weibull distribution), but I am experiencing some problems. I deal with truncated distributions (that this to

Hello everyone, I'm a newbie to R and to CART so I hope my questions don't seem too stupid. 1.) My first question concerns the rpart() method. Which method does rpart use in order to get the best split - entropy impurity, Bayes error (min. error) or Gini index? Is there a way to make it use the entropy impurity? The second and third question concern the output of the printcp() function.

Hi! I have following data which is left truncated say at 10. I am trying to estimate the parameters of the Truncated Lognormal distribution to this data as given below.
