similar to: R: ecdf - linear

Dear R users, I am trying to minimize the distance between my data points and theoretical gamma distribution over shape and scale parameters. the function "mde" from actuar package does it for empirical distribution function and theoretical gamma distribution. However, I would like to minimize the distance by using only the data between 0.1 and 0.9 quantiles. I cannot use ecdf in this

Hi! I've noticed the ecdf() R code (R ver. 2.5.0) contains two call to sort: --- [R-code] --- ecdf <- function(x) x <- sort(x) n <- length(x) if (n < 1) stop("'x' must have 1 or more non-missing values") vals <- sort(unique(x)) rval <- approxfun(vals, cumsum(tabulate(match(x, vals)))/n, method

I would like you consider that the function ecdf could be extended in the following way to handle weights when computing Empirical distribution Functions. There exist particular cases that supports this kind of extension, see for example: Rao, C. R., 1997. Statistic and True. Putting chance to work. World Scientific Publishing. Cox, D. R., 1969. Some Sampling Problems in Technology. New

Hi, I have two variables ranging both from 0 to 1 (n=500 each). Now I am interested in plotting them both in one plot (using ggplot2). So far I used ecdf() (from an example I found with google) to get values for the cumulatice distribution function which gives a relative curve. I also want to do the same plot but using absolute cumulative values instead of relative. Can that be done with ecdf or

Hi, all ecdf function (Empirical Cumulative Distribution Function) in "stats" package counts from smaller values to larger values. However, I want to draw it by counting from larger value to smaller values and I couldn't find options for this purpose. How can I draw ecdf or ecdf like graph by counting from larger values to smaller values. Thank you in advance. Hyunchul Kim

Hi all R users I would like to know how acess the coordinates of the ECDF object. I look for the example, in this part: ###################### print(ls.Fn12 <- ls(env= environment(Fn12))) ###################### but I do not know to extract the Y coordinate and put it in other variable. My objective is to make a plot and identify the points with labels. ############# Example by

Hi r-users,   I would like to compare the cdf between historical and predicted. My x.obs and x.pre are the frequency data in classes of 0-300. I tried: plot(ecdf(x.obs),ecdf(x.pre),type="l",col="red")   and it gives me: Error in plot.stepfun(x, ..., ylab = ylab, verticals = verticals, pch = pch) :   argument 4 matches multiple formal arguments   Thank you so much for any

Hi again, this is a follow-up of my previous post : I've noticed that > attr(first.list[[1]]$size.ecdf,"call") gives ecdf(test.moms[, "m.pxs"]) and that there is no "test.moms" field in my records (a local variable named test.moms was used inside a function, but it was stored under another name in the list, outside the function) May this be the answer (and

Full_Name: Martin Frith Version: R-2.0.0 OS: linux-gnu Submission from: (NULL) (134.160.83.73) I have large vectors containing 100,000 to 20,000,000 numbers. However, they only contain a few hundred *distinct* numbers (e.g. positive integers < 200). When I do ecdf(v), it either runs out of memory, or it succeeds, but when I plot the ecdf with postscript, the output is unnecessarily bloated

Hi. I have the following two ecdf plots in one graph: plot( ecdf(....), do.points=FALSE, verticals=TRUE, main=paste("Ecdf of distances ",DIM,sep=""), col="red" ); lines( ecdf(....), do.points=FALSE, verticals=TRUE ); How do I change the color of the resulting graph? Adding col="red" to either plot or lines results in an error

Platforms : SunOS and Linux, both using gcc 2.95.[23] R versions : 1.2.3 and "R-devel" I came accross this when trying to debug a somewhat sub-optimal behavior of ecdf() from package stepfun. What happens is that approxfun(*, ties = <function>) does not always return the same result for identical arguments. I tried "min", "max", and "mean" all of

Hi. I'm trying to plot two ecdf's on the same graph using two different colors. I can plot using the same color, but it doesn't work when I change colors? Any suggestions? Thanks in advance for your help. x <- c(0.80, 0.83, 1.89, 1.04, 1.45, 1.38, 1.91, 1.64, 0.73, 1.46) y <- c(1.15, 0.88, 0.90, 0.74, 1.21) plot(ecdf(x)) # it works without col='blue', but doesn't

Hi, Newbie here. I read the R for Beginners but i still don't get this. I have the following data (this is just an example) in a CSV file: courseid numstudents 101 209 141 13 246 140 263 8 321 10 361 10 364 28 365 25 366 23 367

I’m using the edcf function to look at a number of empirical distributions graphically for run-time analyses of stochastic optimization algorithms. When dealing with problems where the optimal solution for these problems is always found everything is fine and the graphs are very useful for comparative observations. These distributions have a vertical axis height of one i.e. a probability of one.

Hi, R-Folks, I have 3 large datasets that I combined in a single plot with plot(ecdf(x1...),...) plot(ecdf(x2...),add=TRUE,...) plot(ecdf(x3...),add=TRUE,...) The datasets are very similar, so it is difficult to get visual separation among them. I tried many different line types without success -- the lines all came out solid. Checking further, plot.ecdf() calls plot.stepfun(), which calls

Hello, is ot possible to draw two ecdf of vectors (say s1 and s2) on the same figire with R. plot function draws a new plot and there is no function like points or lines to draw a second ecdf on the figure.

Hi, I have a question for the group, perhaps someone can help me figure this out. I've already looked in the help files and they were no help to me. I have a vector of values and I am plotting an ecdf graph. 1. How can i draw a continuous line through the ecdf points? (lines and type for the plot with an ecdf object does not work) 2. Supposing I have this line drawn. I can add a

Dear UseRs, maybe is a silly question: how can I get Empirical CDF values from an object created with ecdf()?? Using print I obtain: Empirical CDF Call: ecdf(t) x[1:57] = 4.1, 4.4, 4.5, ..., 491.3, 671.27 Thanks in advance.
