I'm reading Torgo (2010) *Data Mining with R*<http://www.liaad.up.pt/~ltorgo/DataMiningWithR/code.html>in preparation for a class I'll be teaching next quarter. Here's an example that is very non-functional. > pH <- c(4.5,7,7.3,8.2,6.3) > names(pH) <- c('area1','area2','mud','dam','middle') > pH area1 area2 mud dam

Hi all, I would appreciate some help in understanding how to find out about objects. For example, to the extent that I understand R it seems to treat everything as an object even without declaring them as objects. Everything has attributes, for example, which are like instance variables in objects. In addition, there are S3 and S3 category objects. Is there a good introductory description of how

I'm trying to create figures in PDF that use the 'gray' colormodel instead of the default 'RGB' model, by requirements of a publisher. My problem has to do with the fact that I'm not being able to get gray colors with this option on the pdf() driver. Here is a small example for problem replication: > R.version _ platform

Deall all, We need to perform a statistical analysis of a large database (40,000 entries with approximately 500 fields in each entry) currently handled in Oracle. The data contains categorical variables only. At the current stage we suggest classification and clustering analysis. We are planning to perform the analysis in R and would be very grateful for any

Dear R-user, I wish to know if someone is using R as concern Datamining or KDD (Knowledge Discovery in Database) and if already exists a R package specialized in this kind of analysis. I found this contributes on the R web site: [20] Diego Kuonen. Introduction au data mining avec R : vers la reconqu??te du `knowledge discovery in databases' par les statisticiens. Bulletin of the Swiss

Hi r-people :) I'm sorry to disturb but I must admit that I know amazingly little about R and similar statistics-packages/languages and I'm kind of lost on where to start. I'm currently working on a datacollection framework for postgresql (The db doesn't really matter except that I hope to use PL/R) and I would like to be able to predict future values preferable 1 day or more

Not sure who to send this to... On the books page http://www.r-project.org/doc/bib/R-books.html the entries from [54] down have three forward slashes in the hyperlinks to publisher info and so they don't work Robin [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi - Writing to see if someone can suggest whether a problem warrants a bug report. It concerns the use of stepFlexclust in the flexclust package. The problem concerns the size of clusters returned. Versions: R-2.7.0 on Windows XP; RODBC_1.2-3 code snippet: r8 <- stepFlexclust(df,8,nrep=100,FUN=kcca, family=kccaFamily("kmedians")) summary(r8) ## returns cluster sizes of 51, 115,

Hello all, Im just beggining using R. I have read a couple of introductory documents but they are very general. Is there a document focused on classification? (this is what Ill be using R for). Examples would be just fine. Thanks in advance, Ulises

R people, I need to know if is possible to make data mining with R. If so, is there any manual or somewhere/one to consult about that. Thank you very much Adri?n

Hi the devel list, I am using K means with a non standard distance. As far as I see, the function kmeans is able to deal with 4 differents algorithm, but not with a user define distance. In addition, kmeans is not able to deal with missing value whereas there is several solution that k-means can use to deal with them ; one is using a distance that takes the missing value in account, like a

Dear List, I'd like to set up a package repository so I can use install.packages() on it for home-grown packages. I set up an AMPP infrastructure on a windows box already, but I'm pretty lost with respect to what to do next as I didn't do any web-programming/admin yet. Could anyone recommend some r-specific tutorials or has a couple of suggestions for me? I've had a look at the

Hi, how can I import really big plain text data files (several GB) from an ERP-System (SAP-Tables) to R? The Header of these files are always similar, for example: Tabelle: T009 Angezeigte Felder: 7 von 7 Feststehende F??hrungsspalten: 2 Listbreite 0250 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |X|MANDT|PERIV|XKALE|XJABH|ANZBP|ANZSP|LTEXT

Hi All, I am interested in learning about people's experience with R training or courses. What worked, what didn't? What do you recommend? Also, if there any groups or individuals that have and can offer R training courses, please contact me directly. I would like to learn about your services. Thanks for your input and help. Please feel free to contact me directly. Russ

Hi, in approximately one months time mentoring institutions can propose projects for the Google Summer of Code 2009, see http://code.google.com/soc/ Last year the R Foundation succesfully participated with 4 projects, see http://www.r-project.org/SoC08/ for details. We want to participate again this year. Our project proposals will be managed by Manuel Eugster (email address in CC). Manuel

Dear list, I?m trying to register Fortran routines in randtoolbox (in srt/init.c file), see https://r-forge.r-project.org/scm/viewvc.php/pkg/randtoolbox/src/init.c?view=markup&root=rmetrics. Reading https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-exts.html#Registering-native-routines and looking at what is done in stats package, I first thought that the following code will do the job:

Thanks for your email. I try to change the name in lowercase but it conflicts with a C implementation also named halton. So I rename the C function halton2() and sobol2() while the Fortran function are HALTON() and SOBOL() (I also try lower case in the Fortran code). Unfortunately, it does not help since I get init.c:97:25: error: use of undeclared identifier 'halton_'; did you mean

Hi all, I tried to a nice legend with small boxes filled with the colors used for the plots. But it does nor work, boxes are always filled with black. An example is here plot(1:4,1:4) lines(1:4,4:1, col="blue") legend("top",leg=c("a","b"),col=c("black","blue"), fill=TRUE) How could I specify the colors? the argument col.box is the

Are there any packages in R that are suitable for doing time series forecasting using neural networks? I have looked in the nnet package and neural package and they both seem geared towards classification. thanks, Spencer [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
