similar to: Truncated Distributions - Estimating parameters

Dear R helpers, I have a bimodal dataset dealing with loss amounts. I have divided this dataset into two with the bounds for the first dataset i.e. dataset-A being 5,000$ to 100,000$ and the dataset-B deals with the losses exceeding 100,000$ i.e. dataset-B is left truncated. I need to fit truncated normal disribution to dataset - I having lower bound of 5000 and upper bound of 100,000. While I

For several years, I have been using Splus to analyze an ongoing series of datasets that have a bimodal distribution. I have used the following functions, in particular the ms() function, to estimate the parameters: two means, two standard deviations, and one proportion. Here is the code I've been using in S: btmp.bi <- function(vec, p, m1, m2, sd1, sd2) {

Hi All, I have a parameter that is bimodal, and I want to get some sort of linear model done with it results = some.linear.function(bimodal.param ~ factor1 + some other stuff, mydata) I want to see if factor 1 matters (it has 3 levels, of of which can be taken as baseline), i.e: summary(results) Coefficients: Estimate Std. Error t value Pr(>|t|) (Intercept) -2.108522

Hello, I see that "mclust" is a pacakge that handles fitting mixtures of normals. Are there any other packages out that that can handle mixtures of gammas or other exponentials? Additionally, are there any packages out there that can fit bimodal distributions without mixtures? i.e., Cobb et al. 1983 using moment recursion relations? Thank you! mw Marion Wittmann, Ph.D.

Can anyone recommend a good nonparametric density approach for data bounded (say between 0 and 1)? For example, using the basic Gaussian density approach doesn't generate a very realistic shape (nor should it): > set.seed(1) > dat <- rbeta(100, 1, 2) > plot(density(dat)) (note the area outside of 0/1) The data I have may be bimodal or have other odd properties (e.g. point mass

Hello everyone, I'm trying to use mle from package stats4 to fit a bi/multi-modal distribution to some data, but I have some problems with it. Here's what I'm doing (for a bimodal distribution): # Build some fake binormally distributed data, the procedure fails also with real data, so the problem isn't here data = c(rnorm(1000, 3, 0.5), rnorm(500, 5, 0.3)) # Just to check

Hi, I was looking for a package that would help with outlier detection for bimodal distributions. I have tried 'outliers' and 'extremevalues' packages, but am not sure if they are ok for bimodal distribution. Any help would be highly appreciated! thanks, [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

We currently ship a PAE 32-bit domU that we can trivially make bimodal, except that if we set it to "bimodal", then older Xens will default to thinking the domU is not PAE: 353 dsi->pae_kernel = PAEKERN_no; 354 if ( dsi->__elfnote_section ) 355 { 356 p = xen_elfnote_string(dsi, XEN_ELFNOTE_PAE_MODE); 357 if ( p != NULL && strncmp(p,

Hello I am trying to find an automated way of fitting a mixture of normal and log-normal distributions to data which is clearly bimodal. Here's a simulated example: x.1<-rnorm(6000, 2.4, 0.6)x.2<-rlnorm(10000, 1.3,0.1)X<-c(x.1, x.2) hist(X,100,freq=FALSE, ylim=c(0,1.5))lines(density(x.1), lty=2, lwd=2)lines(density(x.2), lty=2, lwd=2)lines(density(X), lty=4) Currently i am using

Hello, What I am trying to do is: Generate a density plot of a population of data. This data has a bimodal distribution so I've isolated a couple of possible sub-populations and I want to overlay these two density plots over the first to see whether they are contributing to the bimodal population. I can do this fine with plot(density(...)) and lines(density(...)) . But the resulting plots

Hi, Marion, I believe the package FlexMix provides a more generalized version of finite mixture modeling than is found in mclust/mclust02.

Hola a tod en s, estoy intentando averiguar el número de modas en una distribución. Para ello utilizo diptest. Mi duda es que no acabo de entender cuando la información suministrada por los test suponen la existencia o no de unimodalidad/multimodalidad. Una parte de la salidad de diptest es la que pego a continuación (el resto esta en el fichero adjunto con las distribuciones kernels y las

Hi, is there any package/function that can tell if a numeric vector (continuous data) has a bimodal or trimodal distribution and caluclate the location of the corresponding modes? Thanks

Dear R users, I'm looking for a test of bimodality in order to make some decisions about how to procede with an analysis algorithm. I have not come across any such tests in my readings and discussions apart from the Rao which appears to be applicable to cyclic data. The data I'm interested in characterizing as uni- or bimodal are frequency x amplitude spectra of consonant speech sounds,

Hi, Suppose I have the following vector (data points): > x [1] 36.0 57.3 73.3 92.0 300.4 80.9 19.8 31.4 85.8 44.9 24.6 48.0 [13] 28.0 38.3 85.2 103.6 154.4 128.5 38.3 72.4 122.7 123.1 41.8 21.7 [25] 143.6 120.2 46.6 29.2 44.8 25.0 57.3 96.4 29.4 62.9 66.4 30.0 [37] 24.1 14.8 56.6 102.4 117.5 90.4 37.2 79.6 27.8 17.1 26.6 16.3 [49] 41.4 48.9 24.1

Hi Everyone- After searching through posts and my favorite R-help websites I'm still confused about a problem. I have data which is bimodal in nature, but there is no clearly obvious separation between the two peaks. In programs such as Origin, I can deconvolute the two distributions and have it generate a "best guess" as to what the two subpopulations are which make up my

I'm not sure where to begin with this, but I was wondering if someone could refer me to an R package that would test to see if a distribution fits a bimodal distribution better than a unimodal distribution. Thanks, Andrew [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, Does anybody have a good tip of how to treat bimodal data to perform statistical analyses? My data set ranges from -1 to 1 (any values are posssible in between) and most data are either close to -1 or close to 1. They are the results of a two choice experiment where individuals could choose more than once in either direction and scores were calculated. Simone Simone Immler
