similar to: problem with cor() using bigmemory

Dear all, bigKRLS, which has been on CRAN for a couple of years, had to be pulled recently due to what seems to be a sanitizer issue stemming from its use of bigmemory. bigKRLS works fine (we?ve used it ourselves on many different platforms and have had over 15,000 downloads without an end user reporting difficulties because of this issue). Unfortunately, we have been unable to reproduce the

Hello All, I tried to intall the bigmemory package from a CRAN mirror site and received the following output while installing. Any idea what's going on and how to fix it? The system details are provided below. --------------------- begin error messages ----------------------- * installing *source* package 'bigmemory' ... checking for Sun Studio compiler...no checking for

Hola, tengo una serie de datos datExpr, al usar cor() : cor(datExpr ,method = "pearson", use ="pairwise.complete.obs") me da el siguiente error allocMatrix: too many elements specified Trate con "complete.obs", "na.or.complete", y el resto de las opciones para "use", pero siempre me da algun error.  ¿Alguna idea de como puedo hacer que cor() lea

I work with problems that have rather large data requirements -- typically a bunch of multigig arrays. Given how generous R is with using memory, the only way for me to work with R has been to use bigmatrices from bigmemory package. One thing that is missing a bit is interoperability of bigmatrices with C++ and possibly java. What i mean by that is API that would allow read and write filebacked

Hello, I want to create a triangular matrix and only keep the lower triangle entries without having to allocate memory for the whole matrix, is there any way I can do something like  A<-matrix(data, nrow=50)  but for a triangular matrix? Thanks ERV [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I have a large file backed big. matrix, with millions of rows and 20 columns. The columns contain data that I simply need to tabulate. There are a few dozen unique values. and I just want a frequency count Test code with a small "big" matrix. library(bigmemory) library(bigtabulate) test <- big.matrix(nrow = 100, ncol = 10) test[,1:3]<- sample(150) test[,4:6]<-

I am trying to add the bigmemory packages but I get the following error message: In file included from bigmemory.cpp:14:0: ../inst/include/bigmemory/isna.hpp: In function 'bool neginf(double)': ../inst/include/bigmemory/isna.hpp:22:57: error: 'isinf' was not declared in this scope make: *** [bigmemory.o] Error 1 ERROR: compilation failed for package 'bigmemory' * removing

Hi, I am trying to run the bigmemory example provided on the http://www.bigmemory.org/ The example runs on the "airline data" and generates summary of the csv files:- library(bigmemory) library(biganalytics) x <- read.big.matrix("2005.csv", type="integer", header=TRUE, backingfile="airline.bin", descriptorfile="airline.desc",

To answer your first question about read.big.matrix(), we don't know what your acc3.dat file is, but it doesn't appear to have been detected as a standard file (like a CSV file) or -- perhaps -- doesn't even exist (or doesn't exist in your current directory)?

Dear R-list I'm on my way to start a new project on a rather big panel, consisting of approximately 8 million observations in 30 waves of data and about 15 variables. I have a similar data set that is approximately 7 gigabytes in size. Until now I have done my data management in SAS, and Stata, mostly identifying spells, counting events in intervals, and a like, but I would like to

I recently learned about the bigmemory and foreach packages and am trying to use them to help me create a very large matrix. Without those packages, I can create the type of matrix that I want with 10 columns and 5e6 rows. I would like to be able to scale up to 5e9 rows, or more, if possible. I have created a simplified example of what I'm trying to do, below. The first part of the

Hi, With reference to the mail below, I have large datasets, coming from various different sources, which I can read into filebacked big.matrix using library bigmemory. I want to merge them all into one 'big.matrix' object. (Later, I want to run regression using library 'biglm'). I am unsuccessfully trying to do this from quite some time now. Can you please

Package "bigmemory" is now available on CRAN. A brief abstract follows: Multi-gigabyte data sets challenge and frustrate R users even on well-equipped hardware. C/C++ and Fortran programming can be helpful, but is cumbersome for interactive data analysis and lacks the flexibility and power of R's rich statistical programming environment. The new package bigmemory bridges this gap,

Hi all, I am trying to read a large csv file (~11 Gb - ~900,000 columns, 3000 rows) using the read.big.matrix command from the bigmemory package. I am using the following command: x<-read.big.matrix('data.csv', sep=',', header=TRUE, type='char', backingfile='data.bin', descriptorfile='data.desc') When the command starts, everything seems to be fine,

The re-engineered bigmemory package is now available (Version 3.5 and above) on CRAN. We strongly recommend you cease using the older versions at this point. bigmemory now offers completely platform-independent support for the big.matrix class in shared memory and, optionally, as filebacked matrices for larger-than-RAM applications. We're working on updating the package vignette, and a

The long-promised revision to bigmemory has arrived, with package 4.2.3 now on CRAN. The mutexes (locks) have been extracted and will be available through package synchronicity (on R-Forge, soon to appear on CRAN). Initial versions of packages biganalytics and bigtabulate are on CRAN, and new versions which resolve the warnings and have streamlined CRAN-friendly configurations will appear
