is there any function under R that allows me to test the normality of my 92 sumples? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/multinormality-tp17717230p17717230.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Hello, I have a question about multivariate Shapiro-Wilks test. I tried to analyze if the data I have are multivariate normal, or how far they are from being multivariate normal. However, any time I did >mshapiro.test(mydata) I get the message: Error in solve.default(R %*% t(R), tol = 1e-18) : system is computationally singular: reciprocal condition number = 5.38814e-021 I tried

Dear all, I want to save the p-value from mshapiro.test(mvnormtest). But mshapiro.test(mvnormtest) gives a list with class "htest" containing statistic, p.value, method and data.name as a whole. How do I save only p-value from the result? Thanks a lot!

Hello, I would like to perform a Box-Cox (“bcPower”) transformation on my data. For this, I am determining lambda using the “powerTransform” function. However, with one of my variables I get the following Warning Message: In estimateTransform(x, y, NULL, ...) : Convergence failure: return code = 52 My variable is: > x [1] 0.0001031130 0.0001029480 0.0001040010 0.0001037940 0.0001046280

Hello I am using box.cox() and I get this error message: Warning message: 'box.cox' is deprecated. Use 'bcPower' instead. See help("Deprecated") and help("car-deprecated"). I went to help but I did not understand the explanation, I am still wondering what is really happening. Thanks /R

Dear all, I have a multivariate dataset containing 100,000 or more points. I want find the p-value for the dataset of points coming from a particular multivariate normal distribution With mean vector u Covariance matrix s2 So H0: points ~ MVN( u, s2) H1: points not ~ MVN( u, s2) How do I find the p-value in R? To me this is a likelihood ratio test problem. In H0 the parameters are

My stat textbook tells me that using Shapiro-Wilk test for each variable one by one is not equal to a test for multivariate normality as a whole. Does R have a function of testing for multivariate normality? Thanks.

Dear all, I got this error message > library(dprep) > mardia(Savg) Error in cov(data) : 'x' is empty But with the same data, I got > library(mvnormtest) > mshapiro.test(Savg) Shapiro-Wilk normality test data: Z W = 0.9411, p-value = 0.6739 What does the error message "Error in cov(data) : 'x' is empty" mean? Thanks a lot! Jiao

Hello, Could someone help me to explain the VERY big difference in applying two tests on multivariate normality: library(mvnormtest) data(EuStockMarkets) mshapiro.test(t(EuStockMarkets[15:29,1:4])) Shapiro-Wilk normality test data: Z W = 0.8161, p-value = 0.005955 and library(energy) mvnorm.etest( EuStockMarkets[15:29,1:4] ) Energy test of multivariate normality:

Hi, this is my first help request so please bear with me. I've been running some normality tests using the nortest package. For some of my datasets the Cramer-von Mises normality test generates an extremely high probability (e.g., 1.637e+31) and indicates normality when the other tests do not. Is there something I'm misunderstanding or potentially a bug in the code? Below are the

Hi, If you follow those two links (watch the case difference) : - http://www.prototypejs.org/api/element/getElementsBySelector - http://www.prototypejs.org/api/element/getelementsbyselector You''ll see that the first one does not indicate the 1.6 deprecation even though it is the same method. I guess those docs where generated, so the problem might exists elsewhere in the docs. Thanks

Hi everyone, Can I suggest an additional output component in cancor, from package mva? It would be useful to have the number of canonical correlation vectors, equivalently the rank of the covariance between x and y (label "rank"). This would usually be min(dx, dy), where dx and dy have already been computed for the svd function, but there might be situations where it was less than

I believe there to be a bug in the cvm.test module of the nortest package authored by Juergen Gross. I do not know how to contact the author directly. I've been running some normality tests using the nortest package. For some of my datasets the Cramer-von Mises normality test generates an extremely high probability (e.g., 1.637e+31) and indicates normality when the other tests do

hello all sorry for the following "none" R related question. does anyone know of a reference to calculate the following identity: |I + ABC| where I is an identity matrix and A, B,C may not have to be square matrices? you help will be greatly appreciated.

I have some images of bugs (insects) with many bugs in each image. I want to count the number of bugs and to have an estimate of the area of each one. I've tried searching for an R package to do so with no success. Is this a task that I should pursue doing in R or should I restrict myself to specific image analysis software (e.g. ImageJ)?. The reason I consider R would be a good choice is

Hi, I have a question about the p-value of mshapiro test. I simulated data from bivariate normal 1000 times and used mshapiro test to see how many times the test would reject the null hypothesis when the p-value is 0.05. The answer should be around 50 since the p-value is 0.05. But I got a much higher value. Here is the R code I used and the result.

Dear All,   I often have to work with certain models in which I try to "reproduce" a distribution the best I can with very little known information avaible. Is there a package or function in R that could best reproduce a probability distribution using only the mean, median and SD values availble without knowing the actual distribution type to begin with and/or the covariance matrix (for
