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,

Lately I'm getting this error quite a bit: Error in La.svd(x, nu, nv) : error code 1 from Lapack routine 'dgesdd' I'm running R 2.5.0 on a 64 bit Intel machine running Fedora (8 I think). Maybe the 64 bit platform is more fragile about declaring convergence. I'm seeing way more of these errors than I ever have before. From R-Help I see that this issue comes up from time to

Hi, I'm just wondering if it is planned to include the Lapack routine DGESDD (and friends) in R-1.4.0? This is faster (supposedly by a factor of ~6 for large matrices) than DGESVD which is currently (R-1.3.1) called by La.svd. And if it is not in the plans yet, is there a chance it could be? I've added it to my local version of R-1.3.1 and so far see a factor of 4 improvement over

I have just installed R 2.4.0 (Windows XP OS) and have tried to run code that had worked with previous versions of R. However, I now get an error message: Error in La.svd(iCmat, method = "dgesvd") : unused argument(s) (method = "dgesvd") The R NEWS page about the release and issue 6/4 of the newsletter states: La.svd(method = "dgesvd") is defunct. As a

Dear R-lister, is there any function for Meta Analysis in R? (like homogeneity an, risk differences, relative riskm amd odds ratios? Many thanks, Edwin

Hello, I am attempting to install Bioconductor on 64 bit R. The installation of some bioconductor packages fails with the errors below. I would be very grateful for any help on how to resolve the issue. Best regards, Octavio Espinosa --------------------- Most of the bioconductor packages won't install, for examples 'Biobase' errors with: ** building package indices ...

Generator Microsoft Word 11 (filtered medium) Hi, I'm the mannova package maintainer. We used La.svd(X, method="dgesvd") in maanova package before. After R-2.3.0, the old La.svd() method was deprecated for option method="dgesvd". I changed maanova code correspondingly, which will call method="dgesdd" instead. But after that, we keep getting below error message

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, this is probably simple and I'm just doing something stupid, sorry about that :-) I'm trying to convert words (strings of letters) into a fairly small dimensional space (say 10, but anything between about 5 and 50 would be ok), which I will call a feature vector. The the distance between two words represents the similarity of the

Hi, I'm trying to do PCA on a n by p wide matrix (n < p), and I'd like to get more principal components than there are rows. However, svd() only returns a V matrix of with n columns (instead of p) unless the argument nv=p is set (prcomp calls svd without setting it). Moreover, the eigenvalues returned are always min(n, p) instead of p, even if nv is set: > x <-

I am trying to perform Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) on a Term Document Matrix I created using the 'tm' package. Eventually I want to do a Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA). There are 5677 documents with 771 terms (the DTM is 771 x 5677). When I try to do the SVD, it runs out of memory. I am using a 12GB Dual core Machine with Windows XP and don't think I can increase the memory

Dear R-devel: I could use some advice about matrix calculations and steps that might make for faster computation of generalized inverses. It appears in some projects there is a bottleneck at the use of svd in calculation of generalized inverses. Here's some Rprof output I need to understand. > summaryRprof("Amelia.out") $by.self self.time self.pct

Hello! I suppose this is more a matrix theory question than a question on R, but I will give it a try... I am using La.svd to compute the singular value decomposition (SVD) of a variance matrix, i.e., a symmetric nonnegative definite square matrix. Let S be my variance matrix, and S = U D V' be its SVD. In my numerical experiments I always got U = V. Is this necessarily the case? Or I might

Hello List, i need help for eigen and svd functions. I have a non-symmetric square matrix. These matrix is not positive (some eigenvalues are negative). I want to diagonalise these matrix. So, I use svd and eigen and i compare the results. eigen give me the "good" eigenvalues (positive and negative). I compare with another software and the results are the same. BUT, when i use svd,

On two laptops running 32-bit kubuntu, I have found that svd(), invoked within R 2.9.1 as supplied with the current ubuntu package, returns very incorrect results when presented with complex-valued input. One of the laptops is a Dell D620, the other a MacBook Pro. I've also verified the problem on a 32-bit desktop. On these same systems, R compiled from source provides apparently

Hello, I have a matrix equation, Ax=b, that I need to solve for x. x should be a vector of positive numbers (between 0 and 1). A is not a square matrix in general. This lead me to using the SVD. However, using the SVD gives me positive and negative numbers, as well. I have some constraints included in the A matrix itself (i.e., that the sum of some xi should be equal to 1) but I do not know how
