Dear All, Under Debian GNU/Linux La.svd (with method = "dgesdd") sometimes gives the error "Error in La.svd(data, nu = 0, nv = min(nrow, ncol), method = "dgesdd") : LAPACK routine DGESDD gave error code -12" It seems not to depend on the data per se, but on the relationship between numbers of rows and columns. For example, if the number of columns is 100,

Dear All, I was writing a small wrapper to bootstrap a classification algorithm, but if we generate the indices in the "usual way" as: bootindex <- sample(index, N, replace = TRUE) there is a non-zero probability that all the samples belong to only one class, thus leading to problems in the fitting (or that some classes will end up with only one sample, which will be a problem

If an array has missing values in different rows, plotting using the formul= a=20 interface can produce errors. Example: fake.data <- matrix(rep(-100:100, 4), ncol =3D 4) par(mfrow =3D c(1,2)) boxplot(fake.data ~ col(fake.data)) abline(h =3D 0, lty =3D 2) boxplot(as.data.frame(fake.data)) abline(h =3D 0, lty =3D 2) ##### Add the missing data fake.data[190:200, 1] <-

Dear All, We are about to purchase the second edition of Agresti's "Categorical Data Analysis" (my old copy of the first ed. of that wonderful book is falling apart). I would appreciate suggestions about other comparable books which, if possible, have examples using R/S code (instead of SAS).

Dear All, I have been using the randomForest package for a couple of difficult prediction problems (which also share p >> n). The performance is good, but since all the variables in the data set are used, interpretation of what is going on is not easy, even after looking at variable importance as produced by the randomForest run. I have tried a simple "variable selection"

Dear All, I am using the function gls (in the nlme package) and I would like to fit a heteroscedastic model, with different variances for each of the levels of two stratification variables. In p. 210 of Pinheiro & Bates ("Mixed effects models in S and S-Plus", 2000, Springer), the authors show the use of the "*" operator. However, that is not what I want, because it

Dear All, I think there is a typo in the documentation for coxph (library survival). The help says: eps: convergence threshold. Iteration will continue until the relative change in the log-likelihood is less than eps. Default is .0001. However, if I do "coxph.control()" I get: > coxph.control() $eps [1] 1e-09 So the actual eps being used is not 10-4 but

Hi, You should also check my msc.features.select from caMassClass package. It has feature selection algorithm that I found useful in case of mass-spectra data. It performs individual feature selection and/or removes highly correlated neighbor features.

Dear All, I am using fexact.c on a C++ program I wrote. To minimize dependencies on other files (e.g., to not need to include R.h and ctest.h ---now I only include the R files Boolean.h, Constants.h, and Memory.h), I have re-written all declarations of Sints as ints and, what is potentially more serious, I have re-written the line (lines 329 and 330, in fexact.c on R-1.6.1) /* IMAX is the

Dear all, I have a piece of code, call it "FA", that will be called thousands of times in a typical run of function "FB". I can: a) define FA as a function outside of FB (in the global environment), and call it; b) define FA as a function inside the body of FB and call it; c) "expand inline" FA inside FB. FA mainly does data frame subsetting, runs svd's, and

Dear All, I have a list, where several components are NULL, and I'd like to obtain that very same list without the NULL components (i.e., I do not want to unlist or otherwise loose the rest of the list structure). I can do that with a loop, but how could I do it without a loop? Thanks, Ram?n -- Ram?n D?az-Uriarte Bioinformatics Unit Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Oncol?gicas (CNIO)

Dear All, I found Andy Liaw's suggestion about using a NUMA (instead of SMP) kernel when running R on amd64 with > 1 CPU http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/Rhelp02a/archive/35109.html A couple of questions: 1. Is this still the case with the newer dual-core opterons (e.g., the 275 et al., families) running Linux (kernel 2.6)? 2. How does this affect using Rmpi (and snow, papply, et al.)

Dear All, I've got into the habit of installing R from the precompiled Debian binaries, including many of the packages from the r-cran-* Debian packages, and later building from source (e.g., to link against Goto's BLAS, or to build patched versions, etc). I install the newly built R to the very same place (/usr/lib/R). This allows me to build and update R when I wish, AND provides the

(Apologies for double posting; I sent this to r-help and was suggested that I ask here which I should probable have done to begin with). *************** Dear All, I've got into the habit of installing R from the precompiled Debian binaries, including many of the packages from the r-cran-* Debian packages, and later building from source (e.g., to link against Goto's BLAS, or to build

Dear All, I've read Thomas Lumley's fortune "If the answer is parse() you should usually rethink the question.". But I am not sure it that also applies (and why) to other situations (Lumley's comment http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/05/02/12204.html was in reply to accessing a list). Suppose I have similarly called functions, except for a postfix. E.g. f.1 <-

Dear all, I am trying to include confidence intervals in a xyplot. This is what I am doing: xyplot(x ~ y|z, alpha = 1,band = "global",panel = panel.locfit) (more specifically, in my case x is a binary response from a logistic regression model) The output plot was fine but it did not include the confidence intervals Anyone knows how to do it? (xYplot did not work either) many thanks

Dear R users, I have changed my R version to the new 1.8.1 and some problems appears when using the previous levelplot code. This is a simple example: a <-1:10 b <-11:20 j <- rnorm(100) grid<-expand.grid(a = a, b = b) levelplot(j~a*b, grid) Normaly in my previous vs this was suffice to produce the levelplot. Now, an empty R graphics device appears with the following error

Hi, I'm running a tutorial ("Meta-analyses of data from two (or more) microarray data sets"), which use wgcna package. I have an error in the function modulePreservation (it is below).

Dear All, I think I am confused about how I'd be able to use zlib starting with R 2.7.0. I just downloaded the latest development version, built it, etc, but I am not able to find the zlib.h that, I believe, R should place somewhere under "where/you/want/R/to/go" (from --prefix=/where/you/want/R/to/go). There seem to be entry points for zlib in the binary (e.g., grep -r gzopen ./
