Hi the devel list, I am using K means with a non standard distance. As far as I see, the function kmeans is able to deal with 4 differents algorithm, but not with a user define distance. In addition, kmeans is not able to deal with missing value whereas there is several solution that k-means can use to deal with them ; one is using a distance that takes the missing value in account, like a

Dear Deepayan and dear list, I notice a small inconsistency with the command completion of the R CMD check. --no-latex is deprecated sincs R 2.12.0 and defunct since 2.13.0 but the command line completion still suggests it: cb at cbdesktop:~/r-devel$ bin/R CMD check --no-<here I hit tab> --no-clean --no-examples --no-latex --no-vignettes --no-codoc --no-install

Hi, I want to know which distance is using in the function kmeans and if we can change this distance. Indeed, in the function pam, we can put a distance matrix in parameter (by the line "pam<-pam(dist(matrixdata),k=7)" ) but we can't do it in the function kmeans, we have to put the matrix of data directly ... Thanks in advance, Nicolas BOUGET

Hello All, I'm having some trouble figuring out what the clearest way to plot my k-means clustering result on an my existing MDS. First I performed MDS on my distance matrix (note: I performed k-means on the MDS coordinates because applying a euclidean distance measure to my raw data would have been inappropriate) canto.MDS<-cmdscale(canto) I then figured out what would be my optimum

Greetings. I'm teaching linear regression this semester and that means I write more functions for my regression support package "rockchalk". I'm at a point now were some fresh eyes would help, so if you are a student in a course on regression, please consider looking over my package overview document here: http://pj.freefaculty.org/R/rockchalk.pdf That tells how you can grab

In applying multidimensional scaling, it seems to me that sometimes the underlying dimensionality of the matrix is 1. However I found a case where cmdscale failed when I tried k=1. Here it is: m<-matrix( c(.5,.81,.23,.47,.61, .19,.5,.06,.17,.28, .77,.94,.5,.74,.85, .53,.83,.26,.5,.64, .39,.72,.15,.36,.5), nrow=5) # BTW I think cmdscale uses only the lower triangle--how to enter only # that

In process of creating data package from an existing one. The current package has both raw data files and the associated RData objects created from them. Currently, the data subdirectory is 1.5Mb and the extdata is 5.4Mb. Never having created a data package before, how is this best done? Should the data package contain only the raw data, or the RData objects too (tightly coupled)? If the later,

Hi, I am Parthasarathy G , from IIT Maras ( India ). I am currently in third year of the undergraduate course. I would like to contribute to the R project. Can anyone guide me regarding this? Thanking you, Parthasarathy [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Is there a 'proper' way of checking if cluster is active. For example, I create a cluster called .PBcluster > str(.PBcluster) List of 4 $ :List of 3 ..$ con :Classes 'sockconn', 'connection' atomic [1:1] 3 .. .. ..- attr(*, "conn_id")=<externalptr> ..$ host: chr "localhost" ..$ rank: int 1 ..- attr(*, "class")= chr

Dear all: I have a big data file of 60000 columns and 60000 rows like that: AA AC AA AA .......AT CC CC CT CT.......TC .......................... ......................... I want to transpose it and the output is a new like that AA CC ............ AC CC............ AA CT............. AA CT......... .................... .................... AT TC............. The keypoint is I can't read

Hi all, Is there a way to get cran R to set the working directory to be wherever the source file is? Each time I work on a project on different computers I keep having to set the working directory which is getting quite annoying. Thanks, Sachin [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I have packages where I know CRAN and other test platforms do not have all the resources to build the vignettes, for example, access to databases. Previously I think putting BuildVignettes: false in the DESCRIPTION file resolved this, by preventing CRAN checks from attempting to run the vignette code. (If it was not this, then there was some other magic I don't understand.) Now, when

Hello! I am having an issue with the OrgMassSpecR package. I run my HPLC using a DAD detector. My raw data is exported form chemstation as a csv file. I then upload the csv into Rstudio no problem. Using the DrawChromatogram function, I get a nice chromatogram, and my retention time, peak area, and apex intensity values are given as well. The problem comes with the peak area value given. The

Dear R Developers, Recently filed (and dismissed ;) ) law suit by Astrolabe against tz database developers caused a lot of media-press and discussions and created some kind of precedence in the USA [3]. But also it imho showed that similar attacks might happen in the future, and possibly against data sets which are not that obviously "factual" thus after all might fall under copyright

Dear all, I have trouble with R-beta sweaving files that include definitions with \SweaveInput in combination with keep.source = TRUE Symptom: SInput is taken from too far down the input file (the shift is the number of lines of the included file). Is that known? Searching didn't turn up anything, yet I think there are more people than just me using keep.source. Example: $

Hi, I am currently analysis Raman spectroscopic data with the hyperSpec package. I consulted the documentation on this package and I found an example work-flow dedicated to Raman spectroscopy (see the address : http://hyperspec.r-forge.r-project.org/chondro.pdf) I am currently trying to remove outliers thanks to PCA just as they did in the documentation, but I get a message error I can't

Dear R users, Here is my problem: I have an array with at least four dimensions: > dim(myArray) [1] 20 17 3 6 I'd like to apply a function to each occurrence of the matrix (3x6) defined by the last two dimensions. This interpolation function always return a matrix of the same dimensions as its argument: > interpSecteurs.f(myArray[1, 1, , ]) secteur rotation 1 2 3
