Hello, I have some satellite tag time-at-depth (TAD) frequency data that I would like some help with. The data was transmitted via satellite as percent time spent in each of 7 depth bins (0m, 0-1m, 1-10m, 10-50m etc.), binned over 6-hour intervals. I categorized each row of data corresponding to a date and time into summer vs. winter, and day vs. night, and then summed and averaged the given

I have a lot of people whispering "zfs" in my virtual ear these days, and at the same time I have an irrational attachment to xfs based entirely on its lack of the 32000 subdirectory limit. I''m not afraid of ext4''s newness, since really a lot of that stuff has been in Lustre for years. So a-benchmarking I went. Results at the bottom:

Dear all, I get an error using betrag on this data set :http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1866110/dump.csv. I run it like this regression f2.1=betareg(Y~X1+X2,data=dump) summary(f2.1) I get : Call: betareg(formula = Y ~ X1 + X2, data = dump) Standardized weighted residuals 2: Error in quantile.default(x$residuals) : missing values and NaN's not allowed if 'na.rm' is FALSE In addition:

Hi, I am trying to find m breakpoints of a linear regression model. I used the segmented package. It works fine for small number of predicators and breakpoints.(3 r.v. 3 points). However, my model has 14 variables it even would not work even for just one breakpoints!. The error message is always estimated breakpoints are out of range. Since my problem is time related problem. So I

Hi, I have a question about estimating IRT models by using nlme, not just rasch model, but also other models.
