similar to: help speeding up simple Theil regression function

Hello, I have a series of questions that I hope will be simple to answer. Basically I would like a code to do the following so that I can compute the distribution free test for the slope of a postulated regression line (Theil test). As I am testing the null hypothesis that slope = 0 against the general alternative the slope does not equal 0, it should be pretty straight-forward. I have a data

I came across the package 'ineq' that computes a variety of inequality measures (e.g. gini, theil etc). I want to compute the Theil index (racial segregation) and decompose the total into sub-components (by geog levels). I think the package doesn't report the decomposition (correct me if I'm wrong). Just wonder is that available elsewhere? K.

Hello, I am analyzing some climate time series data using the Mann Kendall package and was wondering if there was a way to calculate the trend using Sen's nonparametric estimator slope in R?

I found some code to compute a Kendall-Theil slope estimate and want to add it to a scatter plot. Is there a way to make it appear like a regression fit instead of a line that extends from the edges of the plot? I would like to have the OLS appear as a dotted line and the KT a solid line but as it is the KT line is longer. -- View this message in context:

hello, i did median based linear regression and computed conf.intervals for my coefficients. but something must have went wrong as the estimates are out of estimates confidence bounds. does someone know what is the problem here. i get warning messages about wilcox.test is not able to do calculations of exact p-values with ties and zeroes, but i do not expect the estimates and theire ci's to

I can't get my Samba PDC (FreeBSD 7,0-BETA3) changing UNIX passwords from Windows clients (Ctrl-Alt-Del). I now have the password chat debug active and I have loglevel 100. I am not certain about the syntax in the password chat. But if I from a console try to change the password of a given user (here testuser1), I see these lines: mflserver3# /usr/bin/passwd testuser1 Changing local password

Hello! Our users change their passwords using the original Win2K password change mechanisms (Ctrl+Alt+Del -> Change Password). If one of the users changes his password and the new one is shorter then 5 characters it is rejected. This appears in the logfile and that's OK so far but the users don't get notified. They think the password has changed and use the new one. Why is that? Could

Hello! We have a school environment with Debian servers and Win2K clients. There are about 700 clients and 30 servers. There is piece of hardware installed on all clients the resets the changes made to the local disk at reboot. This seems to be a problem with Win2K changing machine account passwords every 30 days (according to MSDN). The server saves the password, the client resets it and domain

Dear colleagues in R, Has anybody implemented the 1) (Goodman & Kruskal) lambda 2) (Thiel's) uncertainty coefficient Tanks Rafael M Ramos [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello! I have a question about installing samba on my linux. I have ThizLinux 6.0 (delivered with the mainboard Chaintech 7VJL) on my PC. There isn?t any samba-server installed, so I have download it from your server (samba-2.2.7.tar.gz) after using tar (tar xvfz samba-2.2.7.tar.gz) and reading your instruction i did like you say: I chang the directory (cd /root/Download/samba-2.2.7/source) and

Hello We have a FreeBSD server (7.0 BETA3) running as PDC (Samba 3.0.28) passwords stored in tdbsam. Theres are no problems for users and machines to log on to the network as long as they use the passwords I have made by smbpasswd -a username. But I cannot make a working configuration which allows users to change their own passwords on the server. They are told something like "You do not

Dear R Helpers, I was looking at the email help threads in trying to find a calculation in R of Thiel's uncertainty coefficient. One of the writers offered to send the function in custom code to the inquirer. Can I get a copy of that code, or does anyone know if the calculation is now available in an R package? Please advise. Many thanks. --John J. Sparks, Ph.D.

My goal is to make VPN access to our Samba PDC (FreeBSD 7.0) so that users can access there home shares from Windows clients. I have read the instructions at http://samba.org/ftp/unpacked/lorikeet/pppd/final-report.pdf, but I can't make it work. Don't know if is due to my lack of skills or has something to do with the Popop functionality in FreeBSD. Following the instructions, i made a

Hello I have few questions about openssh... 1/ there is probably bug in auth-password.c in auth_password function if (pw->pw_uid == 0 && options.permit_root_login == 2) return 0; if (*password == '\0' && options.permit_empty_passwd == 0) return 0; /* deny if no user. */ if (pw == NULL) <----------- this should be first checked .... return 0; 2/ do I have

I have setup a samba pdc for my domain and it's working fine. The users also get a network share as I would like. But when I go to the network neighborhood, I see both the users home directory but also a "Homes" share. As far as I can see, the content is the same, but I don't like that way to do it. Is there a way to only show the home directory? Best regards, Jon

I just updated to RELENG_7 from 6.2 and I'm running into some really annoying issues with jerky mouse movement and skipping sound. This seems to be similar to: Re: SCHED_4BSD in RELENG_7 disturbs workflow This happens both with 4BSD and ULE. I seems to happen when I'm compiling ports and a new cc/bzip2/sh process fires off (I'm just watching top), I'll get the skip/freezeup.

Dear sir Schwartz, In response to a granted online request to receive R code in order to generate Theil's Uncertainty coefficient, I was hoping I could receive the same favor. https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2011-May/279210.html Thank you in advance, I hope to hear from you.
