Hi all, I am looking at the tutorial/appendix from John Fox on ?Cox Proportional-Hazards Regression for Survival Data? available here: http://cran.r-project.org/doc/contrib/Fox-Companion/appendix-cox-regression.pdf I am particularly interested in modelling survival with time-dependent covariates (Section 4). The data look like this: > Rossi.2[1:50,] start stop arrest.time week arrest fin

Dear Mr. Therneau, Mr. Fox, or to whoever, who has some time... I don't find a solution to use the "survfit" function (package: survival) for a defined pattern of covariates with a Cox-Model including a time dependent interaction term. Somehow the definition of my "newdata" argument seems to be erroneous. I already googled the problem, found many persons having the

Hi, I'm new to R and using it for Cox survival analysis. Thanks to this great forum I learned how to compute the HR with its confidence interval. My question would be: Is there any way to get the p-value for a hazard ratio in addition to the confidence interval? Thanks, Thierry -- Thierry Panje Visiting Student Researcher Department of Psychology Stanford

Buenas tardes. Tengo un data frame con el que me descargo una serie de datos municipalizados. Después extraigo los que corresponden al municipio que me interesa: paro.municipal <- paro.municipal[paro.municipal$provincia == "28" & paro.municipal$municipio == «115», ]. Todo correcto. El problema viene cuando quiero elegir más de un municipio: paro.municipal <-

Hello all, I have a syntax question. How does one refer to a field brought in via a has_one/belongs_to relationship in a form helper? Basically, I have two models: class Resource < ActiveRecord::Base has_one :other_thing end class OtherThing < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :resource end It has the normal id-resource_id foreign key relationship. OtherThing has two fields, plus the

Hello everyone, I've been advised to use merge to extract information from two data.frames with a number of common columns, but I cannot get a grasp on how it sorts the result. With sort=FALSE, I would expect it to give the result back sorted exactly as the input was but it seems it is not always the case, especially when there are repeats in the input. For example: > a =

I''m new to rspec and looking for way to test a validation I added to a model. The test checks to see that if field1 has a value then field2 must be nil and vice versa. ------------------------------- When I did the rspec_scaffold it generated one test which worked before :each do @valid_attributes = { :field1 = "value for field1" :field2 = "value for

Hi - I have 3 fileds a user can fill out. They can fill out 2 of them or just one of them, for example. fill out these 2 fields: Field1 and Field2 Or fill out this field: Field3 In my model how do I use validates_presence_of for Field1 and Field2 or just Field3. I want to do something like this: validates_presence_of Field1, Field2 OR validates_presence_of Field3 So the user can fill out

Hello, I wanted to parse some information from a text, where fields are tab separated. When I copy the text into an R session (under emacs) like: mystring <- "field1 field2 field3" the tab character is replaced by a single space! For ex, if I type mystring, I get: "field1 field2 field3" The tabs have disappeared!!! I checked with Python that the text I copied was tab

Hi all, My current project brought forth the snippet below, which modifies in each row of a data frame a certain field depending on another field in the same row. Dealing with data of some 30000 entries this works, but is horribly slow. Can anyone show this newbie how to do this properly (faster ;0)? for (i in 1:nrow(dataframe)){ if

Hola Pedro. El INE cambió los ficheros de microdatos no hace mucho, aquí dejo como se haría ahora, (utilizando MicroDatosEs).

Hi, How can I use a substring match as a condition in a subset command? Sth like this: subset(input, field1=="blah1" & field2=="blah2") # but now with substring match in field2 subset(input, field1=="blah1" & field3 *substringmatch* "blah3") I've tried with gsub, but it won't work: subset(input, field1=="blah1" &

Hi User's, This might be a simple question but it is giving me a hard time as I am a new user. I installed R version 2.9.2 (2009-08-24) 1. I just copied a short script from Fox (2002) as a practice and wanted to save it as Rossi.R. The system saved it without complain but when I looked at using a windows explorer it is not *.R file but only Rossi. Why this is happening? 2. the script

I've got a data set with integer codes from 0--3. I'd like a histogram with a single bar for 0, 1, 2 and 3. I'd like each of the 4 bars centered over a label. hist(mydata, breaks=4, main="Simulation") gives me three bars. The best I've been able to do is do something like print(hist((wexp), breaks=25, main="Simulation")) This gives me something

Hello All, I am trying to use the unfold function in RcmdrPlugin.survival library, which converts the survival data with time varying covariates to the counting process notation. The problem is somehow, the event indicator created is not correct. Below is the data, I am trying to convert: CASE TRT FAILTIME FAILCENS SEX AGE IGG0 IGG28 IGG42 IGG84 IGG364 26003 A 11.2033

I want to add virtual fields in a model. table: field1 field2 I want to add field3 which is field1*2 + field2 I know tihs can be achieved in View, but I want it in model. Then I will pass this model to PagerRenderer to paginate. How to achieve this? thanks -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, The following [simplified] query works well, however a variation which includes parenthesis seems to fail, in that it returns hits which should be excluded by the NOT term. This is surprising because in this simple case, the parenthesis shouldn''t change the Boolean evaluation ... any pointers? Working Query: field1:value1 AND NOT field2:value2 Failing Query: field1:value1 AND

Hi All, I want to give ranks to elements in a column so I used: total_list$field1.rank <- rank(total_list$field1,ties.method="min") But this gives me the rank in increasing order. How do I get the ranks in decreasing order? I know decreasing = FALSE is not a legal argument here. Thanks.

I believe that I may have found a bug in R. The top code sample gives an error as shown. However, by simply switching which field is initialized first as in the bottom code sample, it works as expected. This gives an error: a <- NULL a[["field1"]] <- 1 a[["field2"]] <- matrix(c(2,1), 1) Error in a[["field2"]] <- matrix(c(2, 1), 1) : more elements

hello everyone, i'm new to R, so i hope you dont mind a fairly basic R question. we're using R to manipulate the results of SQL queries and create an HTML output. I'm starting with a table that looks essentially like this: Name Field1 Field2 John value1 value2 Jane value3 value4 My table is stored as a dataframe. I'd like to efficiently produce an
