A new version of the package "deal" is now available on CRAN. The package is for learning (parameters and structure) of Bayesian networks and provide an interface to Hugin. In the new version there is an interface to the package dynamicGraph which allows for editing and callbacks of graphs in the displayed window. Try > install.packages(c("dynamicGraph","deal"))

Dear list I would like to be able to group terms in a formula using a function that I will call tvar(), eg. the formula Y ~ 1 + tvar(x:A) + tvar(z) + u + tvar(B) + tvar(poly(v,3)) where x,u and v are numeric and A and B are factors - binary, say. As output, I want the model.matrix as if tvar had not been there at all. In addition, I would like to have information on the grouping, as a vector

In the examples for StructTS -- ($RHOME)/library/stats/man/StructTS.Rd -- could par(mfrow = c(4, 1)) plot(log10(UKgas)) plot(cbind(fitted(fit), resids=resid(fit)), main = "UK gas consumption") become plot(log10(UKgas)) par(mfrow = c(4, 1)) plot(cbind(fitted(fit), resids=resid(fit)), main = "UK gas consumption") ## Note that par was moved down This makes the plot of UKgas

Dear List The UKgas data is stored as an object of class 'ts'. I am trying to use "UKgas" in a formula as argument to a function. However, I do not know how to access the 'time series' information in the response (such as start() end() etc.). Here is a boiled down example. ssm <- function(formula, data = list(),subset=NULL) { cl <- match.call() if

I apologize in advance if I picked the wrong list to post this to. I have made an effort to find the answers to these questions on CRAN, but if they are there, I couldn't find them, and I was going to email the developer of StructTS directly but could not find who that is. I have 2 interrelated questions about StructTS 1. Where can I obtain the source code for StructTS if I wanted to

Hi all, I've experienced this problem using StructTS(x) when the *first* element of x is a NA (R:R1.7.0, os: w2ksp4). Please look at the following code: a=rep(1:7,10) library(ts) #this works StructTS(a) #this works x=a x[2]=NA StructTS(x) #this doesn't work x=a x[1]=NA StructTS(x) The last command returns this error "Error in optim(init[mask], getLike,

Dear R-brains, I'm rather new to state-space models and would benefit from the extra confidence in using the excellent package sspir. In a one-factor model, If I am trying to do a simple regression where I assume the intercept is constant and the 'Beta' is changing, how do I do that? How do i Initialize the filter (i.e. what is appropriate to set m0, and C0 for the example below)?

Dear All, I am trying to fit a structural time series model using the StructTS function (package stats) with only 2 seasons (summer and winter). More than 2 seasons work fine but with 2 seasons I get this error: > fit <- StructTS(y.ts, type="BSM") Error in T[cbind(ind + 1L, ind)] <- 1 : subscript out of bounds I have looked at Prof. Ripley's 2002 RNews article but cannot

I've just built R 2.9.2 from source on Slackware Linux 13.0 - 32-bit (will try 64-bit also next) - and seen: > Collecting examples for package 'stats' > Running examples in package 'stats' > Error: testing 'stats' failed > Execution halted > make[3]: *** [test-Examples-Base] Error 1 Looking at R-2.9.2/tests/Examples/stats-Ex.Rout.fail I see: ... >

Dear all, I'd like to discuss about a possible bug in function StructTS of stats package. It seems that the function returns wrong value of the log-likelihood, as the added constant to the relevant part of the log-likelihood is misspecified. Here is an simple example: > data(Nile) > fit <- StructTS(Nile, type = "level") > fit$loglik [1] -367.5194 When computing the

Dear all, I am applying the StructTS function in ts-package. For some time series the program terminates and the following error appears: Error in optim(init[mask], getLike, method = "L-BFGS-B", lower = rep(0, : L-BFGS-B needs finite values of fn Do someone know what do I have to adjust in the original time series to avoid this error? It works fine for some subsets of the

Hi All, I was wondering whether there have been some listening experiments done to test how well spatial information is preserved in the celt signal, e.g. comparison of sound localization performance for the original uncompressed sound and the celt sound (most probably for different bit rates).

Hi, I used function StructTS some time ago to fit a structural model to a time series. Now with R 1.6.2-1 I repeated the analysis with the same series and I get the following error: Error in KalmanLike2(y, Z, -1) : invalid argument type I tried with other series and I get the same error; I checked the examples in the documentation and they work fine. I suspect I am missing something

Hello, Does anybody know if (and how) it is possible to obtain standard errors of estimated variances from StructTS? (R 2.10.0). Thank you in advance, Giovanni

Greetings, I sent the message below to the developer of the contributed R package "sspir", but have yet to receive any response. I would be very grateful for any advice people have on the matter.

Dear All I would like to use the StructTS function in the ts library to fit the ' BSM ' model. I have some, probably basics, questions about the model and about the function(s): 1) How can I check the statistical significance of the estimated parameters(variances)? 2) Is there some way to find what component "dominate" the series? 3) Is there a function to produce

To whomever it may concern, I'm a young Industrial Engineer working on Senior Design at Georgia Tech and have found the StructTS method to be excellent for the training set for my forecasting project. There's only one problem: I don't actually understand what a Structural Time Series IS. I've looked up resources on it, and get that essentially you're dividing the Time

I familarized myelf with kalmanlike and structts which are approaches for building and estimating ( and forecasting ) state space models ( or the equivalent arima models ). back in 2003, gavin simpson wrote an email describing the west and harrison apprach to estimate state space models and asked if anything was out there for using that approach. the goals of this approach are the same as kalman
