similar to: eigen function on Solaris2.6 (PR#595)

Dear list, Can anyone provide a package or code for estimating the parameters of a mixture of c (c >=2) univariate normal distributions? I've tried the algorithm provided by Venables & Ripley (1999) p 263, for the mixture of two normal, but I don't find the "ms" function in R. I've used nls instead, but I'm not sure if it works the same. The data I have is very

Hi, I would like apply different link functions from Aranda-Ordaz (1981) family to large binary dataset (n = 2000). The existing links in glm for binomial data (logit, probit, cloglog) are not adequate for my data, and I need to test some other transformations. Is it possible to do this in R? And how? Thank you for your help, /Sharon

Hi R-help, Is there such a thing as a function in R for fitting a GLM where the response is distributed as a Beta distribution? In my case, the response variable is a percentage ([0,1] and continuous). The current glm() function in R doesn't include the Beta distribution. Thank you for any help on this topic. Sincerely, Sharon K?hlmann

I have now tested R 1.3.1 compiled with GCC 3.0.2 on Solaris and the example I previously posted (repeated below) still gives a segmentation fault, as it does with GCC 3.0.1 but not with 2.95.2. The eigen calculation sometimes needs to be repeated several times before the segmentation fault occurs. La.eigen does not cause a problem. (The problem occurred with R-devel too, but I have not tested

On Solaris2.6, I have just run into some problems where using the 1.2pre17 scp to another box with either 1.2pre16 or 1.2pre17 on it. The scp dies with an "Alarm Clock" problem on larger files (the failure case file is a 1297920 byte solaris package.). It does not always die in the same place. openssh-1.2pre17-spa 51% |************** | qd 00:00 ETAAlarm Clock Write

Hi, I am trying to create a graph using Arial font (as required by PLoS One). I have read probably all posts in R-help on this topic, as wells as R-news 2006.

Hi, I've been trying to compile up Samba with active-directory support. I've got Solaris2.6, gcc, openldap-2.1.22 and MIT kerberos5 1.3.1 ldap and kerberos are all compiled up happily.

I have an "interesting" problem that I didn't think would ever happen... Using rsync over ssh to mirror a local directory on a remote host. On the remote host the disk becomes full during the rsync run. What I find then is an ssh process on the remote host with no child processes, i.e. the remote rsync has correctly terminated, but the shell has not. On the lost host, rsync is

Dear all, It is not a R related problem rather than statistical/mathematical. However I am posting this query hoping that anyone can help me on this matter. My problem is to get the Geometrical Interpretation of Eigen value and Eigen vector of any square matrix. Can anyone give me a light on it?

You get a warning message when you specify a ylab parameter while plotting data whose x's are POSIXct values. Apparently the `axis.POSIXct' method tries to reset the ylab---via the ... parameter---after it has already been set by higher level methods. Here is a function that illustrates the problem. ylabProblem <- function() { x <- ISOdate(2003, 4, 1:10) # POSIXct

Hello List, Knowing I would eventually need to ask for help on the list, I've held off my thanks and congratulations on the 1.+ releases of R. I am amazed at the dedication of the R-core team, and do add my applause and thanks. I've had a compile problem with the latest version which has not occurred before.

I would like to deprecate La.eigen. It is used in a few packages (ade4, fpc, gss, mvtnorm and smoothSurv on CRAN), but only in usages where replacing `La.eigen' by `eigen' would call exactly the same code. The reason for wanting to deprecate it is that little-used interfaces tend to get overlooked, e.g. PR#5406, a report on eigen, needed to be applied to La.eigen as well. We have also

Hello everybody, if I'm using par(xpd=NA) gridlines will plotted outside the plotting region. This is "new" (and, in my opinion, unaesthetic) in version 1.4 - compared to version 1.3.
