Hi All, Except the "Rand Index", "Dunn Index" and "Silhouette width", are there other cluster validation methods in R? Could you please also specify the function? Thanks! [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R users, I am interested in clustering in R. In SAS we have some criteria for determining the number of clusters using the PROC CLUSTER procedure, which are "CCC" cubic clustering criterion (Sarl 1981), Psuedo F (PSF), and Psuedo T square (PST). My question is do thsese criterion exists in R, I tried to search and got one hit (BIC) in Mclust, which I am aware of, any input is

Hello everybody. I am trying to cluster circular data (data points which are angles), thus i can not use the "dist" function in "mclust" to generate my distance matrix, I am using the function " Dij = 0.5*( 1 - cos(theta_i - theta_j)). The thing is "hclust" will not accept this distance matrix, i tried to put it in a data frame, but again i get an error message

I have a data frame (gom) or a matrix of trace metal data and some other observations from water column samples taken at sea (e.g., 19 samples (rows), 19 variables) I can calc. the rank individually from each column of the attached object. How can I create a matrix that contains the ranked data for each variable (either 1-19, ties=avg)? For example: >gom<-read.csv ("gomdata.csv")

Hi, I'm using package "caret" to rank predictors using random forest model and draw predictors importance plot. I used below commands: rf.fit<-randomForest(x,y,ntree=500,importance=TRUE) ## "x" is matrix whose columns are predictors, "y" is a binary resonse vector ## Then I got the ranked predictors by ranking

Hi- I'm wondering if anyone can help me with my code. I'm coming up dry when I try to get a p-value from the following code. If I make a histogram of my resampled distribution, I find the difference between by groups to be significant. I've ranked the data since I have outliers in one of my groups. mange= c(35, 60, 81, 158, 89, 130, 90, 38, 119, 137, 52, 30, 27,

Here's a more general question following up on the specific question I asked earlier: Can anybody recommend an R command other than mle.aic() (from the wle package) that will give back a ranked list of submodels? It seems like a pretty basic piece of functionality, but the closest I've been able to find is stepAIC(), which as far as I can tell only gives back the best submodel, not a

Hello, I am not only interested in finding out which genes are the most highly up- or down-regulated (which I have done using the linear models and Bayesian statistics in Limma), but I also want to know which genes are consistently highly transcribed (ie. they have a high intensity in the channel of interest eg. Cy5 or Cy3 across the set of experiments). I might have missed a straight forward

I am making a browser-based game using ruby on rails and I am having trouble implementing a ranking system for my game. Each player has five skills: intelligence, creativity, strength, charisma and technological. I want the player to have a rank for each skill. The ranking I have in place right now gives the same rank if two players have the same amount of skill. SELECT COUNT(*) AS [rank] FROM

Any suggestions on applications that involve alot of calcualtions on a fairly large data set? My app uses a set of raw data ~5k, applies some default/override rules on the raw data and does some calculations on the data in combination with a list of assumptions. A ranked list along with detailed metrics is generated. The end user can manipulate some of the rules and assumptions to generate

Hi R-users I have a data set. There are 10 products and the numbers of people who ranked the products. The format of the data set is productID rank1 rank2 rank3 rank4 rank5 rank6 rank7 rank8 rank9 rank10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 10 2 3 3 6 4 2 5

Dear R users, x-values (EI) = Adw, EG1, LA1, Ad1, LA2, LA3...(14 levels, insect stages) y-valus = antpop within the boxplot function x-values are ordered alphabetically Idea: x-values ranked by list order (insect stage: Egg stage 1 is followed by Larvae 1 and not by Egg stage 2 as it would be in an alphabetically order) Problems with the order(tapply()) function: variable lengths

Hi list, I have problems with the as.numeric function. I have imported probabilities from external data, but they are classified as factors as str() shows. Therefore my goal is to convert the colum from factor to numeric level with keeping the decimals. I have googled the problem for a while now and kept to several advices like

Hey Everyone, Im fresh new in R, and Im supposed to write a code to give me a correlation between two rankings. So I have two ranking lists, which contain file names, e.g.: Ranking list 1: file1.java file3.java file2.java Ranking list 2: fiile2.java file4.java file1.java I need to see how much are these two ranking lists are alike, get a correlation between them. I dont even know where to

Hello, I have an experimental design where I would like to use separate ranking events to predict an independent ranking event. I have been using function clmm in the ordinal library but now realize that I am violating one of the assumptions. I have included a subset of the data. I am looking at how undergraduate students perceive the architecture and biological correctness of box and arrow

Hello all, GSOC is around the corner, and the LLVM projects plans to participate again this year. For those who don’t know about GSOC, students are proposing a project that they will work on for 3 months. Amongst other, one goal for LLVM is to mentor students to become good developers and also contributors to the LLVM project (or user/advocate of LLVM for building other cool projects). A key

Hello, I would like to work with Orange as part of GSoC 2012(and continue henceforth). Apologies for joining in a bit late- i was waiting to get a proper grasp of things before discussing it here. Currently I am a Masters students in Mathematics with my bachelors in Computer Science[integrated dual degree]. Over the last year and a half, I have worked on a few ML projects and have a couple of

The application period for GSOC has closed! Please read the following information carefully. Upcoming deadlines: April 7 - Organizations update projected slot allocations. April 15th - All student applications must be ranked and assigned a mentor. April 20 - Accepted student proposals announced. Students: Many of your proposals are not complete and you should complete them as soon as

Hello, This is not exactly an R question, but I suspect that there is an R procedure that does what I am calling (for lack of a better name) "histogram ranking". I'm trying to evaluate a set of regression features by segregating by target class and comparing the feature histograms. My idea is that if the histograms are the same for two different classes then there is no
