I am using curve3d in the emdbook package to graph a gaussian copula density function generated via the copula package. Unfortunately, it appears that emdbook masks dmvnorm from the package mvtnorm in a way that prohibits copula from generating the gaussian copula. (Sounds very confusing!) For example, > library(copula) > f<-function(x,y) dcopula(normalCopula(0),c(x,y)) >

Summary: + I am writing an R extension that needs to call dmvnorm more than 10,000 times during a model fitting computation. + My extension uses openmp for parallel execution. + As of R 3.0, it is no longer permitted for threads to call the R interpreter because there is a stack overflow check that always trips because the thread's stack is different from what R is expecting. +

Dear R users, i try to use function dmvnorm(x, mean, sigma, log=FALSE) from R package mvtnorm to calculate the probability of x under the multivariate normal distribution with mean equal to mean and covariance matrix sigma. I become the following Error in solve.default(cov, ...) : system is computationally singular: reciprocal condition number = 1.81093e-19 What could be the reason of it?

Package mvtnorm provides dmvnorm, pmvnorm that can be used to compute Pr(X=x,Y=y) and Pr(X<x,Y<y) for a bivariate normal. Are there functions that would compute Pr(X<x,Y=y)? I'm currently using "integrate" with dmvnorm but it is too slow.

sorry for cross-posting Dear all, I have tow (several) bivariate distributions with a known mean and variance-covariance structure (hence a known density function) that I would like to compare in order to get an intersect that tells me something about "how different" these distributions are (as t-statistics for univariate distributions). In order to visualize what I mean hear a little

Does anybody know of a function that implements the derivative (gradient) of the multivariate normal density with respect to the *parameters*? It?s easy enough to implement myself, but I?d like to avoid reinventing the wheel (with some bugs) if possible. Here?s a simple example of the result I?d like, using numerical differentiation: library(mvtnorm) library(numDeriv) f=function(pars, xx, yy)

Dear R community, I was trying to estimate density at point zero of a multivariate distribution (9 dimensions) and for this I was using a multinormal approximation and the function dmvnorm , gtools package. To have a sense of the error I tried to look the mismatch between a unidimensional version of my distribution and estimate density at point zero with function density, dmvnorm and dnorm. At

I have the following function, a MSE calc based on some Multivariate normals: MV.MSE<-function(n,EP,X,S){ (dmvnorm(X,mean=rep(0,2),I+S+EP)-dmvnorm(X,mean=rep(0,2),I+S))^2 + 1/n*(dmvnorm(X,mean=rep(0,2),1+S+EP/2)*det(4*pi*EP)^-.5- (dmvnorm(X,mean=rep(0,2),I+S+EP ))^2)} I can get the MV.MSE for given values of the function e.g

Hi all, I have been looking for means of add a contour around some points in a scatterplot as a means of representing the center of density for of the data. I'm imagining something like a 95% confidence estimate drawn around the data. So far I have found some code for drawing polygons around the data. These look nice, but in some cases the polygons are strongly influenced by outlying points.

Is there any way to know how the "dmvt" function computes the hypergeometric function needed in the calculation for the density of multivariate t distribution? -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/hypergeometric-function-in-mvtnorm-tp4483730p4483730.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Hi, I have a question about exporting interactive 3D plots. I use the following code to plot a contour of a trivariate normal distribution: library(mvtnorm) library(rgl) library(misc3d) n=25 x=seq(-3,3,length=n) X=cbind(rep(x,each=n**2),rep(rep(x,each=n),n),rep(x,n**2)) p=array(dmvnorm(X,sigma=diag(3)*0.5+0.5),c(n,n,n)) contour3d(p,x,x,x,level=mean(p)) lim=c(-3,3)

Dear list members I need a function that calculates the bivariate normal distribution for each observation. It is part of a likelihood function and I have 1000's of cases. As I understand it I cannot use packages like "mvtnorm" because it requres a covariance matrix of the same dimension as the number of observations. Basically what I need is a function that takes as arguments a

I have the code for the bivariate Gaussian copula. It is written with for-loops, it works, but I wonder if there is a way to vectorize the function. I don't see how outer() can be used in this case, but maybe one can use mapply() or Vectorize() in some way? Could anyone help me, please? ## Density of Gauss Copula rho <- 0.5 #corr R <- rbind(c(1,rho),c(rho,1)) #vcov matrix id <-

Dear R-List: I`m trying to calculate the probabilities for a bivariate normal distribution while using the mvtnorm-package(dmvnorm) and the adapt-package for multidimensional integration. The problem is that I can`t specify the upper bound in the adapt-package the way I need it because I don`t need a rectangular area. I want to calculate the probability starting at the origin under the line y=x.

I am not sure whether there is a bug. When I tested the example given for "glht" in the help, I entered the following error: Running commands: amod <- aov(minutes ~ blanket, data = recovery) rht <- glht(amod, linfct = mcp(blanket = "Dunnett"), alternative = "less") Errors are: Error in try(coef.(model)) : could not find function

I am experiencing strange results using dmvnorm. I define a scaled distance matrix from the coordinates bellow and then calculate a covariance matrix using a spherical correlation function. Then with certain combinations of range and sill parameters dmvnorm is returning values greater than 1. Surely the results of dmvnorm should be in the interval 0:1 (or do I just nead a holiday?). In addition

Hello, everyone, I have a question about integration of product of two densities. Here is the sample code; however the mean of first density is a function of another random variable, which is to be integrated. ## f=function(x) {dmvnorm(c(0.6, 0.8), mean=c(0.75, 0.75/x))*dnorm(x, mean=0.6, sd=0.15)} integrate(f, lower=-Inf, upper=Inf) ## error message Error in dmvnorm(c(0.6, 0.8), mean = c(0.75,
