What I'm trying to do is create best fit line in R for a set of data points and then remove all the outliers to re-create a best fit. I can't use IQR because the outliers I have in mind are easily within the range, but way out of line for the best fit, which is ruining the fit. I'd rather throw out those points all together. Thanks! [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R-experts! I am currently running a meta-analysis with the help of the great metafor package. However I have some difficulties setting up my raw data to enter it to the meta-analysis models. I have a group of subjects that have been measured in two continuous variables (A & B). I have the information about the mean of the two variables, the group size (n) and the standard deviations of

Dear R users, This is more a statistical question rather than an R question. I'd appreciate it if you can give me some suggestions. I have a sample of a time series (sample size 500, fat tail in density). I am trying to calculate the Standard error of standard deviation of a sub-block-sample (sample size 250). I take 100 this kind of sub-block-sample, randomly. For these 100 subsamples, I

Hi, I have problem getting the standard deviation from the manova output. I have used the manova function: myfit <- manova(cbind(y1, y2) ~ x1 + x2 + x3, data=mydata) . I tried to get the predicted values and their standard deviation by using: predict(myfit, type="response", se.fit=TRUE) But the problem is that I don't get the standard deviation values, I only

Dear R helpers I have following data stocks <- c("ABC", "DEF", "GHI", "JKL") prices_df <- data.frame(ABC = c(17,24,15,22,16,22,17,22,15,19),                                          DEF = c(22,28,20,20,28,26,29,18,24,21),                                           GHI = c(32,27,32,36,37,37,34,23,25,32),                                          

Hi everyone, I have just started using R, and I have a simple question. How can I get the Standard deviation for rows. basically I am looking for something like "rowMeans()" but for Standard deviation (I tried "rowSds()" didn't exist) Thanks, -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Standard-deviation-for-rows-tp19998106p19998106.html Sent from the R

I have 2 data tables. Each hold information categorized into "Date" and "Price." What I need to do is combine the two to get 2 columns of "Date" and "Price," by continuing the table downwards with the new rows supplied from the second table. So, for example I have 5/1/12 2 5/2/12 5 As data table 1 and 5/3/12 65 5/4/12 7 As data table 2 and I need to create

Hi R-helpers, I have been struggling with calculating row and column statistics, e.g. standard deviation. I know that > datac$Mean<-rowMeans(datac,na.rm=TRUE) will give me row means. I have tried to replicate those row means with the apply function: > datac$Mean2<-apply(datac,2,mean) so that I can replace the function argument with "sd" (instead of mean) to get standard

Hi! I need to perform ANOVA on a couple of data sets. The only information I have are N, Mean and Standard deviation. I am very new to R, so can someone point me to the right direction on where to go? Thank you very much. Sincerely Niny Rao, PhD Philadelphia University

Hi list members. I’ll try to plot the abundance means of nine transects as lines, with five points on each transect (A to I). I will also need to plot for each point, it’s standard deviation (once each point will have tree replicates) as whiskers. Another problem will be that all the points should exist for each transect, but we know that six of the nine transects will have blanks (A1, A2, A3, -,

Hi all, I am trying to find sd of my rows in a matrix and i get column sd inspite of extracting rows. I tried to do the sqrt(var(x)) but that did'nt work as well, Here is my data genes 15 24 63 40 25 42 46 35 23 53 37 45 30 37 50 55 40 51 30 48 x<-sd(genes[1:5,]) y<-sqrt(var(genes[1:5,])) I get 4 sds for the 4 columns instead of 5 sds for my 5 rows. Thanks you in advance.

Hello all, I am new to xtable. I have several datasets in the form of matrices. Consider the following two simple datasets which are 2 x 3 matrices. The rows in both matrices have the same meaning. For example the first row of both matrices are variable 1 and the second row of both matrices are variable 2. dataset1 = matrix( c(1,2,3,4, 5, 6 ), 2 , 3) dataset2 = matrix( c(4,3,5,10, 1, 0), 2, 3)

Dear R colleagues, for a statistics tutorial I want to develop a nice 3d-graphic of the well known target comparison/analogy of accuracy and precision (see i.e. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accuracy_and_precision for a simple hand made 2d graphic). The code for a really beautiful graphic is already provided as demo(bivar) in the rgl package (for a picture see i.e

Is it in bad form to double post to StackOverflow and R-help? Apologies if so. Here's my task: I've got a matrix of means like so means<-matrix(1:10,nrow=2) colnames(means)<-c("a","b","c","d","e") and a matrix of standard deviations like so sds<-matrix(seq(0.1,1,by=0.1),nrow=2)

Dear R-users, I am new to the list and I would like to submit (probably!!!!) a stupid question: I found in a paper a reference to a t-test for the evaluationg the difference between the standard deviations of 2 samples. This test is performed in the paper but the methodology is not explained and any reference is reported. Does anyone know where I can find references to this test and if it is

Dear R Developers I'm using the great randomForest package (4.6-7) for many projects and recently stumbled upon a problem when I wrote unit tests for one of my projects: On Windows, there are small numeric deviations when using the 32- / 64-bit version of R, which doesn't seem to be a problem on Linux or Mac. R64 on Windows produces the same results as R64/R32 on Linux or Mac: >

Hi, I have two (different types of) measurements, say X and Y, resulting from the same set of experiments. So X and Y are paired: (x_1, y_1), (x_2, y_2), ... I am trying to calculate the standard deviation of Y with respect to X. In other words, in terms of the scatter plot of X and Y, I would like to divide it into bins along the X-axis and for each bin calculate the standard deviation along

Hi, I have the following data about courses (504) in a university, two attributes about the proportion of resources used (#resources_used / #resources_available), namely the average and the standard deviation. Thus I have: [1] n=504 rows [2] 1 id column and 2 attributes Here's a sample of the data: courseid,average,std 12741,1,0 17161,1,0 12514,1,0

Hi, Could anyone give suggestions how to plot a scatter plot with 1 standard deviation for each point. To make it clearer, here is a simple example: the scatterplot is plot(X, Y), but I want to add 1 standard deviation according to the value of Z for each Y. X Y Z 1 3.5 1.1 . . . . . . . . . Thanks a lot in advance. FD [[alternative HTML

Hi, R seems to use the "1/n-1"-factor calculating the standard-deviation sd(). If i wat to get the "non-sample" standard-deviation i use sqrt(sd(x)^2*((n-1)/n)) Is there a parameter to get the sd()-function using the "1/n" factor directly? Or is there any other function to do so? Thank you in advance :-) Best, Eli
