I am going to be developing a Risk Assessment system for a secure environment whose database will double as an asset management system. Or at least the Risk Assessment stuff will be an outcropping of the asset management system. Has anyone had any experience with this or a similar project? This is my first attempt at a Rails project after spending a few weeks reading books and getting a general

Dear Sirs. I am working with the R packages Hmisc and PredictABEL to make NRI estimates from my Cox models with and without a specific biomarker. According to Pencina et al (Statistics in Medicine 2010, DOI: 0.1002/sim.4085 ), a continuous/non-categorical NRI (NRI>0) is to be used when there are no obvious reason to categorize risk, such as the risk of future cardiovascular events in patients

Hello,   In R, How to read SPSS file and access the data item? Thank you. Regards, Suman Kundu [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R-Users! I am using the svm function (e1071 package) to classify two groups using a set of 180 indicator variables. Now I am confused about the cross-validation procedure. (A) On one hand I use the setting cross=10 in the svm function to run 10 cross-validation iterations and to get an estimate of the svm's performance in prediction. (B) On the other hand most tutorials I found

Dear R-Helpers Has anyone written a script for the dose proportionality assessement using the power model and the confidence interval criteria as described in - Gough at al. Assessment of dose proportionality: report from the statisticians in the pharmaceutical industry in Drug Information Journal,1995, 29:1039-1048 and/or - Smith et al. Confidence interval criteria for assessment of dose

Sir, I am working with multiclass discriminant analysis.(say response variable has 3classes).In R, using lda(), I get 2 sets of coefficients for the discriminant function.Now, I want to put a new x-vector(vector of independent variables) and want to check it corresponds to which class of y.Is there any formula for doing this? or how can I do this? Regards, Suman Dhara [[alternative HTML

Dear friends. I have a paper (details below) examining the risk of renal failure after an operation. A logistic regression was done, and the coefficients to two regressors (age and creatinine) plus intercept with standard errors are given. These coefficients must be dependent in estimation, and when no details are given, I thought how I could most informatively get an impression as to how

Hi R users,I am a beginner in the use of R. I need urgent help for my thesis study. <https://stats.stackexchange.com/posts/633206/timeline> I have daily air pollution parameters PM10, PM2.5 CO, NO2, SO2, and O3. I also have daily hospital admission numbers. Taking into account the effect of weekends and holidays, I would like to used generalised additive model (GAM) to explore the

Dear R-Helpers, I am looking for ways to assess quality of a predictor of variance of a random variable. Here a two related, but yet distinct, setups. 1. I observe y_t, t=1,...,T which is normally distributed with unknown variance v_t (note that the variance is time-dependent). I have two "predictors" for v_t, dubbed v1_t and v2_t, and I want to tell which predictor is better. Here

Hello again, I m trying to use timereg package as you suggested (R2.7.1 on XP Pro). here is my script based on the example from timereg for a fine & gray model in which relt = time to event, rels = status 0/1/2 2=competing, 1=event of interest, 0=censored random = covariate I want to test library(timereg) rel<-read.csv("relapse2.csv", header = TRUE, sep = ",",

Dear R users, I d like to assess the effect of "treatment" covariate on a disease relapse risk with the package cmprsk. However, the effect of this covariate on survival is time-dependent (assessed with cox.zph): no significant effect during the first year of follow-up, then after 1 year a favorable effect is observed on survival (step function might be the correct way to say that ?).

Hi everyone, I'm looking for any examples of useful frailty models, in particular any situation in which a cox proportional hazards model with frailty outperforms a regular cox proportional hazards model with respect to prediction of the time to event (or the X-year risk of an event). I have defined my own gamma-frailty cox PH model in R but on my simulated data sample it does not predict any

Dear R-list. I have done a logistic glm using Age as explanatory variable for some allergic event. #the model model2d<-glm(formula=AEorSAEInfecBac~Age,family=binomial("logit"),data=emrisk) #predictions for age 30 and 60 preds<-predict(model2d,data.frame(Age=c(30,60)),se.fit=TRUE) # prediction interval

Dear all I generated predicted risk of death for each subject in the study by means of Cox proportional hazards model at 8 year of follow-up, a time point at which follow-up was more than 90% complete. It is possible to extrapolate to 10-year the predicted risk of each subjet by assuming an exponential distribution? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your consideration.

Dear all, Does any one know how to calculate the risk (death rate) at some time point (say 5 yrs) based on Kaplan-Meier curve in coxph model in R? I know how to fit the survival data with coxph. But need to calculate risk at some time point. Many thanks. Bill

Hi, I'd like to know whether R is capable to assess parameters in a model describing the kinetic of a pollutant adsorption onto activated carbon. A common relation is for instance the Adam-Bohart-Thomas' one: dx/dt = K1 * (qm-x)*C - K2x where {K1,K2} are the unknown paramters and {qm,C} are known parameters Of course I get experimental data sets of measured x as a function of time.

Hello, Has any consideration or work been done to document or perform vulnerability testing for the R packages? In order to bring in software to my environments, I need to research known vulnerabilities (I usually use MITRE's CVE page) and also perform local Fortify and Nessus scans to determine an NVD score. It would be a huge help to have a way to package whatever tools/libraries/etc into

Hi, How do you typically test voice quality in Asterisk? For example if you like to do load testing, or monitor voice quality and get notified if certain calls had bad quality for proactive maintenance? Thank you!
