Hello everyone, This is Kangmin. I am trying to produce shape and scale of my wind data. My data is based on wind speed frequency with 1km/hr increment. data is described below. Windspeed (km/h) Frequency 1 351 2 147 3 317 4 378 5 527 6 667 7 865 8 970 9 987 10 907 11 905 12 642 13 1000 14 983 15 847 16 842 17 757 18 698 19 632 20 626 21 599 22 529 23 325 24 391

Hi all, I'm trying to subset a pattern in a vector. Each argument has 6 letters, and I need those that start with Z and end with Z. e.g. x <- c("ZFHSJK", "ZFHJKZ","ZIOPWE","ZLKJSD","ZKFLPZ") I've looked up other discussions but still can't seem to find the answer. Thanks. Kangmin

Dear R-users I have some datasets, all left-censoring, and I would like to fit distributions to (weibull,exponential, etc..). I read one solution using the function survreg in the survival package. i.e survreg(Surv(...)~1, dist="weibull") but it returns only the scale parameter. Does anyone know how to successfully fit the exponential, weibull etc... distributions to left-censoring

Hello, I would like to fit a mixture of two Weibull distributions to my data, estimate the model parameters, and compare the fit of the model to that of a single Weibull distribution. I have used the mix() function in the 'mixdist' package to fit the mixed distribution, and have got the parameter estimates, however, I have not been able to get the log-likelihood for the fit of this model

Dear All, I have two questions regarding distribution fitting. I have several datasets, all left-truncated at x=1, that I am attempting to fit distributions to (lognormal, weibull and exponential). I had been using fitdistr in the MASS package as follows: fitdistr<-(x,"weibull") However, this does not take into consideration the truncation at x=1. I read another posting in this

Dear R-users! I would like to fit exponential, Weibull and log-logistic via glm() like functions. Does anyone know a way to do this? Bellow is a bit longer description of my problem. Hm, could family() be adjusted/improved/added to allow for these distributions? SAS procedure GENMOD alows to specify deviance and variance functions to help in such cases. I have not tried that option and I do not

Dear Knowledgeable R Community Members, Please excuse my ignorance, I apologize in advance if this is an easy question, but I am a bit stumped and could use a little guidance. I have a finite mixture modeling problem -- for example, a 2-component Weibull mixture -- where the components have a large overlap, and I am trying to adapt the "mclust" package which concern to normal

Hello What is the appropriate method to test if a given distribution is a weibull thank you meriema email meriema.belaidouni at int-evry.fr

Hi all I try to make a weibull survival analysis on R. I know make this on GLIM, and now I try to make the GLIM exercice GLEX8 on R to learning and compare the test. The variables are: time censor group bodymass In GLIM I make: $calc %s=1 $ to fit weibull rather than exponential $input %pcl weibull $ $macro model group*bodymass $endmac$ $use weibull t w %s $ Then, GLIM estimate an alpha for the

Hello, is there a quick way of estimating Weibull parameters for some data points that are assumed to be Weibull-distributed? I guess I'm just too lazy to set up a Maximum-Likelihood estimation... ...but maybe there is a simpler way? Thanks for any hint (and yes, I've read help(Weibull) ;) Kaspar Pflugshaupt -- Kaspar Pflugshaupt Geobotanical Institute ETH Zurich, Switzerland

Hi I am using R to fit a survival function to my data (with a weibull distribution). Data: Survival of individuals in relation to 4 treatments ('a','b','c','g') syntax: ---- > survreg(Surv(date2)~males2, dist='weibull') But I have some problems interpreting the outcome and getting the parameters for each curve. --------- Value Std.

I was wondering if someone familiar with survival analysis can help me with the following. I would like to fit a Weibull curve, that may be dependent on a covariate, my dataframe "labdata" that has the fields "cov", "time", and "censor". Do I do the following? wieb<-survreg(Surv(labdata$time, labadata$censor)~labdata$cov,

Dear R-users I would like to fit weibull parameters using "Method of moments" in order to provide the inital values of the parameter to de function 'fitdistr' . I don`t have much experience with maths and I don't know how to do it. Can anyone please put me in the rigth direction? Borja [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear list, I'm looking for a function to generate (simulate) a random Weibull point process. Can anyone help? Cheers, Torbj?rn Ergon, University of Oslo

I'm getting errors when running what seems to be a simple Weibull distribution function: This works: x <- c(23,19,37,38,40,36,172,48,113,90,54,104,90,54,157,51,77,78,144,34,29,45,16,15,37,218,170,44,121) rate <- c(.01,.02,.04,.05,.1,.2,.3,.4,.5,.8,.9) year <- c(100,50,25,20,10,5,3.3,2.5,2,1.2,1.1) library(MASS) x <- sort(x) tryCatch( f<-fitdistr(x, 'weibull'), error

Hi I have been asked to provide Weibull parameters from a paper using Kaplan Meir survival analysis. This is something I am not familiar with. The survival analysis in R works nicely and is the same as commercial software (only the graphs are superior in R). The Weibull does not and produces an error (see below). Any ideas why this error should occur? My approach may be spurious.

Dear R experts, How should lambda and gamma (with std.errors) be calculated for a weibull model with age as an independent predictor? I have assumed that this can be done with survreg with e. g. (summary(survreg(Surv(time, status) ~ age, dist = 'weibull')) ) and predict.survreg with e.g. (predict(model, se.fit = T, newdata = data.frame(age = seq(50, 80, 5)) but unfortunately I'm

Hi R-Community, I have a vector of Weibull distributed observations and I would like to estimate the parameters "shape" and "scale" of the Weibull distribution. Is there a way to do this in R?
