Is it possible to implement the Jonckheere-Terpstra test for ordered alternatives using the coin package: Conditional Inference Procedures in a Permutation Test Framework? I found jonckheere.test{clinfun}, but it uses a normal approximation when ties are present in the data. To make this concrete, I've include a small dataset. Thanks. --Dale Hollander and Wolfe, 1999 Table 6.6, pg 205

Hello, I can't find a package which calculates Kendall's tau-c. There is the package Kendall, but it only calcuates Kendall's tau-b. Here is the example from ttp://www2.chass.ncsu.edu/garson/pa765/assocordinal.htm. cityriots <- data.frame(citysize=c(1,1,2,2,3,3), riotsize=c(1,2,1,2,1,2), weight=c(4,2,2,3,0,4)) cityriots <- data.frame(lapply(cityriots,function(x)

I have 3 variables relating to the successful introductions of species to 95 different areas: introduction frequency; number of successes pre 1906; number of successes post 1906 The data are not normal, nor homo-skedatic, so I am using non-parametric statistics. I have calculated Kendall's tau between both introduction & successes pre 1906 (tau=0.3903) and introduction & successes

Full_Name: Dan Field Version: 1.6.2 OS: N/A Submission from: (NULL) (209.115.168.187) In kendall.c (library is ctest), the limits for the first loop in routine kendall_tau run from 0 through n-1, and the inner loop runs from 0 through i-1. This causes the each pair at index i to be compared with itself; my understanding is that there should only be n*(n-1)/2 pairs under consideration for

Hi, I need to calculate Kendall's tau for large data vectors (length > 100'000). Is somebody aware of a faster algorithm or package function than "cor(, method="kendall")"? There are ties in the data to be considered (Kendall's tau-b). Any suggestions? Regards Ferdinand

Dear I estimate a sample selection model using the Clayton copula and Burr and Gaussian marginal. I need to derive ther Kendall'sw tau from the concordance coefficient by integration. I came across a way to do that in R long time ago but cannot find it again. Can somewone tell me what to read and what to use? Thank you. Steven Yen

Hello. Has any further action been taken regarding implementing David Simcha's fast Kendall tau code (now found in the package pcaPP as cor.fk) into R-base? It is literally hundreds of times faster, although I am uncertain as to whether he wrote code for testing the significance of the parameter. The last mention I have seen of this was in 2010

A search of the archives did not reveal an answer: For basic tests of association, where one has no a priori knowledge of the form of the relation or of the distributions of the variables, rank correlation seems like a good start. Why is cor.test() with Kendall and Spearman options relegated to the ctest package, rather than in the base package? Does this suggest that the developers consider

SuSE tries to feed me Wine V20050211 as a security fix for the recent WMF vulnerability. OTOH, WneHQ says that this is fixed in V0.9.6. Can anyone tell me how to specify to "YOU" (YaST Online Updater) that I most certainly don't want that 20050211 version? Not now -- not ever! I am now using V0.9.7. If I permit "YOU" to perform automatic updates I get clobbered by this

Colleagues, I ran some nonparametric regressions in R (run in RedHat Linux), then a colleague repeated the analyses in SAS. When we obtained different results, I tested S-Plus (same Linux box). And, got yet different results. I replicated the results with a small dataset: DATA: 37.5 23 37.5 13 25 16 25 12 100 15 12.5 19 50 20 100 13 100 10 100 10 100 16 50 10 87.5

Hi all, I would like to ask a question related to Kendall package. I ran Kendall (x,y) and saw the results. But I am not sure which tau values R reported. I have ties in my data set, so I want tau-b. Can anybody tell how Kendall package is calculating tau values? I have looked at the package PDF, but I could not find any useful information. As long as I see from the following link, there

hi, i have 2 lists of ranks for which i'd like to compute kendall tau. there are ties in the ranks which (to the best of my knowledge) means i cant use tau a but rather b or c. how does R handle that? are ties automatically detected (using corr.test()) and is tau b/c computed instead of tau a? also kendall does not work when values in list 1 do not occur in list 2 (and vice versa) - how does

Dear list   I have 5 markers that can be used to detect an infection in combination. Could you please advise me how to use functions in ROCR/ other package to produce the ROC curve for a combination of markers?   I have used the following to get ROC statistics for each marker. pred <- prediction(y$marker1, y$infectn) perf <-performance(pred,"tpr","fpr")
