similar to: mvpart : Printing response values at terminal nodes

Hi all, I am fairly new to R and I am trying to run mvpart and create a MRT using explanatory variables and covariables. I've been following the procedures in Numerical Ecoogy with R. The command (no covariables) which works fine - ABUNDTMRT <- mvpart(abundance ~ .,factors,margin=0.08,cp=0,xv="1se",xval=nrow(abundance),xvmult=100,which=4) where abundance is 4th root

Dear R community, I am analyzing plant communities with the function mvpart, using a dissimilarit matrix as input. The matrix is calculated with the funtion gdist. fit <- mvpart(gdist (ba12[,18:29], meth="maximum", full=TRUE, sq=F) ~ beers + slope_dem + elev_dem+ plc_dem + pr_curv+ +curv+max_depth+doc_rocks+ abandon+land_use+ca_old, data=ba12, xv="p") This

Hello everyone, I am currently using the mvpart package and would like to change the color scheme it uses, and was hoping someone could help me out. All of the papers I have found have used a grayscale but I can't seem to figure out how they did that! Currently, mvpart plots barplots in a repeating sequence of 3 shades of blue. So if you have 6 response variables the same shade of blue is used

Dear all, I'm getting an error in one of the stock examples in the 'mvpart' package. I tried: require(mvpart) data(spider) fit3 <- rpart(gdist(spider[,1:12],meth="bray",full=TRUE,sq=TRUE)~water+twigs+reft+herbs+moss+sand,spider,method="dist") #directly from ?rpart summary(fit3) ...which returned the following: Error in apply(formatg(yval, digits - 3), 1,

Dear all, I was wondering if there is a simple way to avoid printing the multiple cross-validation automatic output to the console of recursive partitionning functions like rpart or mvpart. For example... > data(spider) > mvpart(data.matrix(spider[,1:12])~herbs+reft+moss+sand+twigs+water,spider,xv="1se",xvmult=100) *X-Val rep : 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15

Hello all, When attempting a classification tree using mvpart, I get the following error: > thesis2.mvp=mvpart(bat_sp~., data=alltrees.df) Error in all(keep) : unused argument(s) (c(TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE,

Still about the mvpart. Is there any way I can control for the number of elements in each node in the function mvpart? Specifically, how can I ask partition to ignore node with elements less than 10? Thanks! -Shu

Hello, I'm using the R package called mvpart, which is about the multivariate regression trees. The function I wrote is: mrt1<- mvpart(coefmat~sChip+sScreen+sMem,data=mixdata, xv="pick", plot.add=TRUE,uniform=TRUE,which=4,all=TRUE,xadj=2,yadj=2,rsq=TRUE,big.pts=TRUE,wgt.ave.pca=TRUE,legend=TRUE,bars=F, pca=TRUE) where "coefmat" is a matrix(of dimension N*K) to store

Hi, I'd like to perform Dufrene-Legendre Indicator Species Analysis for a multivariate regression tree. However I have problems with arguments of duleg(veg,class,numitr=1000)function. How to obtain a vector of numeric class memberships for samples, or a classification object returned from mvpart? thanks in advance -- Best regards, Agnieszka Strzelczak

Dear R-list, I am using the rpart/mvpart-package for selecting a right-sized regression tree by 10-fold cross-validation. My question: Is there a possibility to find out for every observation in which of the ten folds it is lying? I want to use the same folds for validating another regression method (moving averages) in order to choose the better one. Thanks a lot, Pedro

Hello: I am using rpart and would like more background on how the splits are made and how to interpret results - also how to properly use text(.rpart). I have looked through Venables and Ripley and through the rpart help and still have some questions. If there is a source (say, Breiman et al) on decision trees that would clear this all up, please let me know. The questions below pertain to a

Dear R's I'm trying to use specific rather than random cross-validation groups in mvpart. The man page says: xval Number of cross-validations or vector defining cross-validation groups. And I found this reply to the list by Terry Therneau from 2006 The rpart function allows one to give the cross-validation groups explicitly. So if the number of observations was 10, you could use

I'm trying to use the pictex driver for bargraphs, and the shading isn't showing up. Is there any way to get some sort of shading in the plots? A hatch or stipple would be fine, too; just some way to differentiate the bars. The postscript driver won't do, since I'm trying to embed this in a LaTeX document which I'll use pdflatex on and \includegraphics for pdftex doesn't

Hi there, I am a beginner. I would like to change the error bars in the bargraph.CI function from the default (se) to (sd). The help file says ci.fun= function(x) c(fun(x)-se(x), fun(x)+se(x)) Is there a simple way of telling the function what (x) precisely is - I already define in in the of the bargraph.CI function and assume that is should be able to use that information. cheers, Herwig --

I'm trying to create a bargraph of means with standard error bars using the function bargraph.CI (in the sciplot package). Like this: bargraph.CI(x.factor, response,data,xlab, ylab, par(family="serif"),font=11) However, an error message comes up when I try to use the par funtion. Does the character font/style need to be changed in a different way for this kind of plot? Or am I

I have a question relating to mvpart, which I hope you can answer. We recently conducted a study using TBR. In our first study, we used "regular" TBR in SPSS to model 1 dependent variable. Note we have a relatively small data-set of 100 cases. In SPSS, we used a minimum change of improvement smaller than 0.000001 as a stopping rule. Also, we chose the 1SE "rule", set the

Hi there, I wonder if anyone can help me. I'm trying to use bargraph.CI in the Sciplot package when there is a missing combination of the factor levels. Unfortunately the standard errors on the plot do not appear to be correct. Consider an analysis consisting of two factors A and B. When all factor level combinations are present all appears fine: library(sciplot) #all data
