The following seems to be an bug in prcomp(): > test <- ts( matrix( c(NA, 2:5, NA, 7:10), 5, 2)) > test Time Series: Start = 1 End = 5 Frequency = 1 Series 1 Series 2 1 NA NA 2 2 7 3 3 8 4 4 9 5 5 10 > prcomp(test, scale.=TRUE, na.action=na.omit) Erro en svd(x, nu = 0) : infinite or missing values in 'x'

I've been working on a revised version of prcomp and princomp. Below is my current draft of prcomp, which is marginally different from V&R. I've added center and scale as optional arguments. However, scale causes the following: > zi _ prcomp(iris[,,2]) Warning: ignored non function "scale" because scale is both a variable and a function. Is there any way to avoid this

hello R_team having perfomed a PCA on my fitted model with the function: data<- na.omit(dataset) data.pca<-prcomp(data,scale =TRUE), I´ve decided to aggregate two variables that are highly correlated. My first question is: How can I combine the two variables into one new predictor? and secondly: How can I predict with the newly created variable in a new dataset? Guess I need the

Hi, I am trying to do a PCA on my data but I keep getting the error message svd(x, nu=0) infinite or missing values >From the messages posted on the subject, I understand that the NAs in my data might be the problem, but I thought na.omit would take care of that. Less than 5% of my cells are missing data. However, the NAs are not regularly distributed across my matrix: certain cases and

How does one rotate the loadings from a principal component analysis? Help on function prcomp() from package mva mentions rotation: Arguments retx a logical value indicating whether the rotated variables should be returned. Values rotation the matrix of variable loadings (i.e., a matrix whose olumns contain the eigenvectors). The function princomp returns this in the element

Hi, I'm having a mental block as to how I can automatically assign filenames to the output of the following code. I am wishing to create a separate .png file for every image created, each of them having a sequential filename ie "sourcefile_index.png" so that I can create a movie from them. Please could someone tell me where I am going wrong? the following code works fine and

Hello, I have a short question about the prcomp function. First I cite the associated help page (help(prcomp)): "Value: ... SDEV the standard deviations of the principal components (i.e., the square roots of the eigenvalues of the covariance/correlation matrix, though the calculation is actually done with the singular values of the data matrix). ROTATION the matrix of variable loadings

Hi all, I am wondering in R, suppose I did the principal component analysis on training data set and obtain the rotation matrix, via: > pca=prcomp(training_data, center=TRUE, scale=FALSE, retx=TRUE); Then I want to rotate the test data set using the > d1=scale(test_data, center=TRUE, scale=FALSE) %*% pca$rotation; > d2=predict(pca, test_data, center=TRUE, scale=FALSE); these two

Hi, I am a new user of R, and apologize beforehand for the simplistic nature of this question: I ran prcomp on a data set with 4 variables, and am able to see the summary information (variance contribution, rotation matrix, plots, etc.). However, I'd also like to extract the actual values of the principal components (PC) corresponding to each sample. I've looked in the help, on-line

Hello all, I wish to compute site scores using PCA (prcomp) on a matrix with missing values, for example: Drain Slope OrgL a 4 1 NA b 2.5 39 6 c 6 8 45 d 3 9 12 e 3 16 4 ... Where a,b... are sites. The command > pca<-prcomp(~ Drain + Slope + OrgL, data = t, center = TRUE, scale = TRUE, na.action=na.exclude) works great, and from

Dear R users, i would like to apply a PCA on image data for data reduction. The image data is available as three matrices for the RGB values. At the moment i use x <- data.frame(R,G,B)#convert image data to data frame pca<-princomp(x,retx = TRUE) This is working so far. >From this results then i want to create a new matrix from the first (second..) principal component. Here i stuck.

Dear R users, I'm trying to cluster 30 gene chips using principal component analysis in package mva.prcomp. Each chip is a point with 1,000 dimensions. PCA is probably just one of several methods to cluster the 30 chips. However, I don't know how to run prcomp, and I don't know how to interpret it's output. If there are 30 data points in 1,000 dimensions each, do I have to

Dear listserv, I am trying to perform a principal components analysis and create an output table of the eigenvalues for the dependent variables. What I want is to see which variables are driving each principal components axis, so I can make statements like, "PC1 mostly refers to seed size" or something like that. For instance, if I try the example from ?prcomp > prcomp(USArrests,

Hi all, I am attempting to run PCA on a matrix (nrow=66, ncol=84) using 'prcomp' (stats package). My data (referred to as 'Q' in the code below) are separate river streamflow gaging stations (columns) and peak instantaneous discharge (rows). I am attempting to use PCA to identify regions of that vary together. I am entering the following command:

Hi ! I've used the example given in the documentation for the prcomp function both in R and SPAD to compare the results obtained. Surprisingly, I do not obtain the same results for the coordinates of the principal composantes with these two softwares. using USArrests data I obtain with R : > summary(prcomp(USArrests)) Importance of components: PC1 PC2

Hi, I am trying to run PCA on a set of data with dimension 115*300,000. The columns represnt the snps and the row represent the individuals. so this is what i did. #load the data code<-read.table("code.txt", sep='\t', header=F, nrows=300000) # do PCA # pr<-prcomp(code, retx=T, center=T) I am getting the following error message "Error: cannot allocate vector of

Dear experts, I tried to put the two plots into one final PNG figure with the following script. However instead of giving 2 plots in one figure, it only gives the the last plot in one figure. What's wrong with my script below? __BEGIN__ in_fname <- paste("mydata.txt.",sep="") out_fname <- paste("finalplot.png",sep="") dat <-

Dear all, I've used the 'prcomp' command to calculate the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix(gg). Using the command 'principal' from the 'psych' package  I've performed the same exercise. I got the same eigenvalues but different eigenvectors. Is there any reason for that difference? Below are the steps I've followed: 1. PRCOMP #defining the matrix
