I am using psm to model some parametric survival data, the data is for length of stay in an emergency department. There are several ways a patient's stay in the emergency department can end (discharge, admit, etc..) so I am looking at modeling the effects of several covariates on the various outcomes. Initially I am trying to fit a survival model for each type of outcome using the psm

Dear list, I would like to generate random numbers from a Voigt distribution, hopefully in a way as simple as getting random numbers from a normal distribution with 'rnorm'. Is there any package to do this? Speed is an issue in this application. Or, as the Voigt distribution is a convolution of a Gaussian and a Lorentzian, can I simply combine random numbers from rnorm and rcauchy in some

I was recently talking to a friend of mine who produces what's widely referred to as "techno", music that's heavy on electronically generated loops and effects, samples, and has plenty of bass. He doesn't like ogg for a few reasons - he sent me a rather long email, and I've stripped out the nonsense from it (he has some technically irrelevant reasons for not liking

I am trying to replicate the repeated measures example from Dr.Faraway's book (Extending the linear model with R) as follows: data(vision) vision$npower <- rep(1:4,14) mmod <-lmer(acuity~power+(1|subject)+(1|subject:eye),vision) When I look at the fixed effects p-value, it is missing. Am I missing something here? Thanks. Fixed effects: Estimate Std. Error t value

Hi all. I tried to subclass FXSettings in order to add some functionality to it but I ran into the following problem. The code which shall be executed looks like this: def test reg = Registry.new("test.reg") reg.Parse end The Registry class basically looks this way: require "fox12" include Fox class Registry < FXSettings

Dear expeRts, first of all I'd like to thank you for the quick help on my last which() problem. Here is another one I could not tackle: I have data on an absorption measurement which I want to fit with an voigt profile: fn.1 <- function(p){ for (i1 in ilong){ ff <- f[i1] ex[i1] <- exp(S*n*L*voigt(u,v,ff,p[1],p[2],p[3])[[1]]) } sum((t-ex)^2) } out <-

Monkey's Audio lossless compressor (currently win32 only, free but not open-source except decoder) author is thinking to implement a kind of audiophile-quality lossy compression which would filter "noise bits" that are hard to encode lossless but which are (or should be) inaudible and thus improve lossless compression (avg. 300-450kbps). I think that implementing something like this

Hi all, Assuming this is an R core issue: tryCatch(install.packages("clipr", repos = "bullshit"), warning = function (w) cat("got a warning")) Warning in install.packages : unable to access index for repository bullshit/src/contrib: cannot open URL 'bullshit/src/contrib/PACKAGES' Warning in install.packages : package ?clipr? is not available (for R

Dear List, Consider the following example x=c(1,2,3,4,5) y=c(2,4,6,8,10) linearmodel=lm(y~x) To predict a y-value if you know the corresponding x value is very easy with the command predict. predict(linearmodel, newdata=(x=1.5)) The other way around, to predict an x-value with a corresponding y-value, doesn't work unfortunately. Is there another function that can do that, or do I need to

Hi Guys, I am a novice of Asterisk and I need some experts help to understand what I can get out of it. I need to make multiple calls (let say 50) at once to autoanswering softphones on a LAN and send all of them the same message that they will repeat with loudspeakers in the same environment. I am a little concerned about synchronization of the phones and moreover it is not much clear to me if I

Asterisk work does not pay all of my bills, so I have joined up with a company that has a very good payment plan. I have recently become a Mona Vie Independent Distributor. I am not going to go into a sales pitch. This is just an FYI to this opportunity. The company has grown into a Billion dollar company in just 2 years. This company's compensation plan is the best and quickest that I have

Hello! My Linux-server is every day attacked with brute-force password cracking attacks. I use openssh-3.9p1 (SuSE Linux 9.2) with standard setup (PAM, LoginGraceTime 2m, MaxAuthTries 6).

Hi Has anybody done THD or THD-N measurements with the CELT Codec (bext would be on various bit rates) If someone could share results for Mono at 64kBit and Stereo at 128 and 196kBit it would be great. thank you very much Jochen -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hello I had an idea about judging the quality of ogg vorbis (or any other lossy codec) I took a wave-file and encoded it to ogg. Then decoded ogg to wav and inverted it's phase. When mixing the original wav with the phase-inverted decoded ogg-file, any identic parts of compressed and uncompressed audio should be eliminated. Of course there's always a "rest" of sound because

Hi, Does anyone have an idea about the possibility to apply psychoacoustic models as the ones in mp3 or AAC to a CELP coder?

Hi all, I've programmed on a SNOM function key the destination "**77" which in my extension plan reprograms/toggles an asterisk DB variable which I use in the extension plan for some call routing decisions. I would like the SNOM extension light to permanently reflect the current toggle status of my application logic/asterisk DB variable. Is something like that possible to do in

Hi, I am sorry for this question, but I am trying to speed up an application.... I will need to fit many x-y data sets (input from text files) to 4-parameter Pseudo-Voigt peak function. Until now I used SigmaPlot macro to do it (enclosed just in case...) peaksign(q) = if(total(q)>q[1], 1, -1) xatymin(q,r) = xatymax(q,max(r)-r) [Parameters] a = if(peaksign(y)>0, max(y), min(y))

Hi Lyle, I noticed that when creating a FXTextField with TEXTFIELD_ENTER_ONLY it still sends messages to its target when other keys than KEY_Return are pressed. I usually create a textfield this way: textfield = FXTextField.new(self, 50, self, ID_INPUT, TEXTFIELD_ENTER_ONLY) textfield.setText(aStr) textfield.setFocus textfield.move(x, y, w, h) textfield.show This way only the enter key should

Hi, how may I define in a callfile the CallerID presentation to be used for the requested call, eg. set it to prohibited?

Hi all, I'm looking for a way with any asterisk-version with TE410P (cpe EuroISDN, Q931) for sending an INFORMATION ELEMENT KeypadFacility, eg. *87, during a connected call to the PSTN switch. Are there existing functions in asterisk to generate & send such IE ? If not what existing modules would be best to derive from? TIA, Bruno -------------- next part -------------- A non-text
