Hi folks, I have a question about how to efficiently produce random numbers from Beta and Binomial distributions. For Beta distribution, suppose we have two shape vectors shape1 and shape2. I hope to generate a 10000 x 2 matrix X whose i th rwo is a sample from reta(2,shape1[i]mshape2[i]). Of course this can be done via loops: for(i in 1:10000) { X[i,]=rbeta(2,shape1[i],shape2[i]) } However,

Hi, Interpretation problem ! so what i did is by using the: >fit1 <- fitdist(vectNorm,"beta") Warning messages: 1: In dbeta(x, shape1, shape2, log) : NaNs produced 2: In dbeta(x, shape1, shape2, log) : NaNs produced 3: In dbeta(x, shape1, shape2, log) : NaNs produced 4: In dbeta(x, shape1, shape2, log) : NaNs produced 5: In dbeta(x, shape1, shape2, log) : NaNs produced 6: In

I have the following problem: I have a vector x of data (0<x<=1 ) with a U-shaped histogram and try to fit a beta distribution using fitdistr. In fact, hist(rbeta(100,0.1,0.1)) looks a lot like my data. The equivalent to the example in the manual sometimes work: > a <- rbeta(100,0.1,0.1) > fitdistr(x=a, "beta", start=list(shape1=0.1,shape2=0.1))1) > shape1

hi, i'm new to R and i'm trying to port a quattro pro spreadsheet into R. spreadsheets have optional lower and upper limit parameters on the beta distribution function. i would like to know how to incorporate this with R's pbeta function. thanks in advance, mara. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Park yourself in front of a

I have a problem in where i generate m independent draws from a binomial distribution, say draw1 = rbinom( m , size.a, prob.a ) then I need to use each draw to generate a beta distribution. So, like using a beta prior, binomial likelihood, and obtain beta posterior, m many times. I have not found out a way to vectorize draws from a beta distribution, so I have an explicit for loop

Good-day Sir, I am R.Language users but am try to? estimate parameter of beta distribution particular dataset but give this error, which is not clear to me: (Initial value in "vmmin" is not finite) beta.fit <- fitdistr(data,densfun=dbeta,shape1=value , shape2=value) kindly assist. expecting your reply:

I am new to R and learned to program 10 years ago in C++. I am currently working a project that looks at the distribution of randomly generated beta values. I take 20 random beta values find their sum, repeat 100000 times. Here is my code that it took me 4 hours to get s=numeric(length=100000) for(i in 1:100000){ pop=(rbeta(n=20,shape1=2,shape2=1)) s[i]=sum(pop) } So now I have them all in

HI All: Does anyone know the code behind the qbeta function in R? I am using it to calculate exact confidence intervals and I am getting 'NaN' at places I shouldnt be. Heres the simple code I am using: k<-3 > x<-NULL > p<-rbeta(k,3,3)# so that the mean nausea rate is alpha/(alpha+beta) > min<-10 > max<-60 > n<-as.integer(runif(3,min,max)) > for(i in

I have been trying to use the rbeta() function to generate random beta variates with a particular mean and standard deviaiton for some simulation problems I am working on, however I am unsure of the relationship between the parameters shape1 and shape2 and the mean and standard deviation of the beta distribution. I am guessing that there is a formula for this, but I am unsure what it is. Can

Dear R users, first I take this opportunity to greet all the R community for your continuous efforts. I wrote a function to calculate the pdf and cdf of a custom distribution (mixed gamma model). The function is the following: pmixedgamma3 <- function(y, shape1, rate1, shape2, rate2, prev) { density.function<-function(x) { shape1=shape1 rate1=rate1 shape2=shape2

Buenos dias! Os escribo para ver si me podeis ayudar con un asunto en el que me he quedado un poco encallado. Lo que tengo que hacer es sacar los percentiles (0.001, 0.005, 0.95 y 0.999) de varias distribuciones beta, concretamente 418. Cada distribucion esta definida por los parametros "shape1" y "shape2". Por lo tanto tengo una base de datos de 418 filas y en cada una de

Hi, sorry for repeating the question but this is kind of important to me and i don't know whom should i ask. So as noted before when I do a parameter fit to the beta distr i get: fitdist(vectNorm,"beta"); Fitting of the distribution ' beta ' by maximum likelihood Parameters: estimate Std. Error shape1 2.148779 0.1458042 shape2 810.067515 61.8608126 Warning

Hi, I wonder how to pass several functions and their arguments as arguments to a function. For example, the main function is f = function(X ) { process1(X) ... process2(X) } I have a few functions that operate on X, e.g. g1(X, par1), g2(X, par2), g3(X, par3). par1, par2 and par3 are parameters and of different types. I would like to pass g1, g2, g3 and their arguments to f and g1,

Hello, unfortunately, I don't know a better subject. I would like to be very flexible in how to process my data. Assume the following dataset: par1 <- seq(0,1,length.out = 100) par2 <- seq(1,100) fac1 <- factor(rep(c("group1", "group2"), each = 50)) fac2 <- factor(rep(c("group3", "group4", "group5", "group6"), each =

I've discovered an infelicity (I guess) in qbeta(): it's not a bug, since there's a clear warning about lack of convergence of the numerical algorithm ("full precision may not have been achieved"). I can work around this, but I'm curious why it happens and whether there's a better workaround -- it doesn't seem to be in a particularly extreme corner of parameter

Dear list, I've recently came across a problem that I think I've solved and that I wanted to share with you for two reasons: - Maybe others come across the same problem. - Maybe someone has a much simpler solution that wants to share with me ;-) The problem is as follows: expand.grid() allows you to generate a data.frame with all combinations of a set of values, e.g.: >

Hallo, I need your help. I fitted my distribution of data with beta-prime, I need now to plot the Cumulative distribution. For other distribution like Gamma is easy: x <- seq (0, 100, 0.5) plot(x,pgamma(x, shape, scale), type= "l", col="red") but what about beta-prime? In R it exists only pbeta which is intended only for the beta distribution (not beta-prime) This is

Hi , I am new to R. I am trying to run a simple R script as shown below: aov.R ------ data1<-c(49,47,46,47,48,47,41,46,43,47,46,45,48,46,47,45,49,44,44,45,42,45,45,40 ,49,46,47,45,49,45,41,43,44,46,45,40,45,43,44,45,48,46,40,45,40,45,47,40) matrix(data1, ncol= 4, dimnames = list(paste("subj", 1:12), c("Shape1.Color1", "Shape2.Color1", "Shape1.Color2",

Hi, I have a data frame DATA, which (simplified of course) looks like this: know1 = c("Y","N","N","Y","N","N","Y","Y","N") par1=c(1,4,5,3,3,2,3,3,5) know2 = c("Y","Y","N","Y","N","N","N","Y","Y")

Dear list, I have two functions created in the same environment, fun1 and fun2. fun2 is called by fun1, but fun2 should use an object which is created in fun1 fun1 <- function(x) { ifelse(somecondition, bb <- "o", bb <- "*") ## mymatrix is created, then myresult <- apply(mymatrix, 1, fun2) } fun2 <- function(idx) { if (bb == "o) { #
