similar to: dist function in R is very slow

Hi Stefan, Thank you very much for pointing me to the wordspace package. It does the job a bit faster than my C code but is 100 times more convenient. By the way, since the tcrossprod function in the Matrix package is so fast, the Euclidean distance can be computed very fast: euc_dist <- function(m) {mtm <- Matrix::tcrossprod(m); sq <- rowSums(m*m);? sqrt(outer(sq,sq,"+") -

> By the way, since the tcrossprod function in the Matrix package is so fast, the Euclidean distance can be computed very fast: Indeed. > euc_dist <- function(m) {mtm <- Matrix::tcrossprod(m); sq <- rowSums(m*m); sqrt(outer(sq,sq,"+") - 2*mtm)} There are two reasons why I didn't use this optimization in "wordspace": 1) It can be inaccurate for small

Hi All, I'm working on analyzing a large data set, lets asume that dim(Data)=c(1000,8700). I want to calculate the canberra distance between the columns of this matrix, and using a toy example ('test' is a matrix filled with random numbers 0-1): > system.time(d<-as.matrix(dist(t(test), method = "canberra", diag = FALSE, upper = FALSE, p = 2))) user system

Hi, I just encountered what I thought was strange behavior in MDS. However, it turned out that the mistake was mine. The lesson learned from my mistake is that one should plot on a square pane when plotting results of an MDS. Not doing so can be very misleading. Follow the example of an equilateral triangle below to see what I mean. I hope this helps others to avoid this kind of headache.

Hi all, I just failed in loading a saved wordspace (13MB of size), and received these errors: Warning: stack imbalance in 'missing', 52 then 51 Warning: stack imbalance in 'if', 50 then 53 Warning: stack imbalance in 'as.environment', 57 then 59 Warning: stack imbalance in 'ls', 54 then 53 Warning: stack imbalance in '.Internal', 54 then 53 Warning: stack

(The following is not a Rails-specific question, but relates to a problem that affects Rails, so I wonder whether anyone on the team has an opinion about it or knows whether a solution is already in development.) While gem dependencies can be easily managed in a Gemfile by Bundler, when it comes to other assets, you either have to manually copy javascript files into the app/assets or vendor

Is there a convenient way to respond to a particular posting which is a part of the digest? I mean something that will automatically quote the original message, subject, etc. Thank you! Moshe Olshansky m_olshansky at yahoo.com

Dear list, I'm trying to visualise some ellipsoidal shapes in 3D. Their position, axes, and angular orientation can be arbitrary. I saw an ellipse3d function in rgl; however it is heavily oriented towards the statistical concept of ellipse of confidence, whilst I am just concerned with the geometrical object. Below is my current implementation. It is quite slow when creating many shapes, so

Hi, Round(0.55,1)=0.5 Round(2.55,1)=2.6 Can this be right? Thanks, Ed [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello to everybody, ... and sorry if the question has already been answered. I am dealing with complex numbers and need a way of plotting them on angular plots (2D and 3D). Is there a package that already manage this, or can somebody in this R-world who could help me with his skill ? Thanks to all. Have a nice week-end !

I''m trying to apply a css class to all LI elements that are children of an element with the ID "idSelector". This is what I did and it works. But I was wondering if there was an easier way without having to use an anonymous function? $$("#idSelector li").each(function() { arguments[0].addClassName("myClass") }); Thanks in advance.

Hello, i am working in origin pro, i want to plot a graph as like a pdf attached but with black and white lines. here radial axis varies from 0 to 1. and angular axis from 0 degree to 60 degree.and third axis which is depend on both radial and axial gives non intersecting lines. how can i read the data from plot for replot. vikas -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was

Dear R Users, I have a network of 25000 total nodes and a list of 500 node which is a subset of all nodes. Now I want to calculate the APSP (all pair shortest path) matrix only for these 500 nodes.

If my sample size is small is there a particular switch option that I need to use with t.test so that it calculates the t ratio correctly? Here is a dummy example? á =0.05 Mean pain reduction for A =27; B =31 and SD are SDA=9 SDB=12 drgA.p<-rnorm(5,27,9); drgB.p<-rnorm(5,31,12) t.test(drgA.p,drgB.p) # what do I need to give as additional parameter here? I can do it manually but

Hi Ryszard! There is a dist function in R. It's in the mva package. You can set the kind of distance that you want. Thanks, Erin mailto:hodgess at gator.uhd.edu

Hello: I was wondering, has anyone has encountered an R package that performs random projection/random mapping? RP is a procedure that is akin to Principal Components Analysis in that it accomplishes dimensionality reduction, but is far more computationally efficient. I have been searching for some time, but haven't seen anything on CRAN-r yet. David Monaghan Sociology Ph.D. Candidate,
