similar to: Discriminant analysis with R

good morning to the R-help list!, I would like to ask if there is an alternative to the S ploting parameter "cxy" in R. I am trying to port some S code to R that makes use of this "cxy" parameter to scale the graphics, and I don't find this parameter in help(par). thank you, IOsu ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jes?s

Peter, As I understand your Q. You probably have data that is similar to each other like stock Prices for all RHS variable. In that case the difference between corr and cov is not significant; however, if your RHS contains totally dissimilar variables it matters a great deal. If x1 income, x2 job type, x3 Education level, etc..., then taking cov of these variables would not be desireable

I'm probably misunderstanding something in "Writing R Extensions" version 1.0.0. In the chapter on the R API, section 4.7, it is stated that the functions listed in R_ext/Linpack.h are available to users' Fortran code. I am developing a developing a library of ode solvers, based on lsoda and ddassl, and which in turn call some routines from linpack and double precision blas. I

Hello, Does logistic regression really provide better results than lda or qda ? (my purpose is not classification but highlighting of discriminant variables). If this is true, where could I get an R script performing stepwise logistic regression ? Thanks -- Daniel AMORESE Lab.

Hi, I'm a newbie in R and don't much aobut all the modules and their capabilities, but I'm interested in solving a problem about a discriminant analysis done with SPSS tool. The thing is that I would like to make a discrimant analysis similar to the one done with SPSS, but I can't find the way to solve it. I've been playing with R and I can handle more or less my data,

Can one perform a QDA in R? I do not see it anywhere within the mda package. Any pointers here would be appreciated. Thanks, cjf -- ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Christopher J.

Hello, I am switching from SPSS-Windows to R-Linux. My university is very SPSS-oriented so maybe that's the cause of my problems. I am a beginner in R and my assignments are SPSS-oriented, so I hope I don't annoy anyone with my questions... Right now I've got 2 problems: -I have to evaluate discriminant functions I have calculated with lda(MASS). I can't find a measure that

Dear R Help Members, I am aware how to plot the LD1 vs LD2 from a lda in R, using the code: plot(baseline.systat.hat$x, col=baseline.systat.hat$class,pch=as.numeric(baseline.systat.hat$class)) However, I need to use the quadratic discriminant function, qda due to data properties. Is there a way to obtain the same sort of plot for from a qda object (and the output of predict qda). I have not

Are there any libraries in R that can do discriminant analysis?

Dear R user, I'm using qda (quadratic discriminant analysis) function (package MASS) to classify 58 explanatory variables (numeric type with different ranges) using a grouping variable (factor 2 levels "0" "1"). I'm using the qda method for class 'data.frame' (in this way I don't need to specify a formula). Using the function:

Perhaps, I should complement my previous e-mail question: I am trying to select variables through a quadratic discriminant analysis. It seems to me that a robust criterion is the value of the discriminatory power (i.e. the ratio of the separation of the class means to within-class variance) How can I obtain this ratio from V & R's qda() output ? Thanks (I hope this question is relevant) --

Dear R gurus, Thank you all for continuous support and guidance -- learning without you would not be efficient. I have a question regarding LD analysis and how to best code it up in R. I have a file of (V52 and 671 time points across all columns) and another file of phonetic features (each vowel is aligned with a distinct binary sequence, i.e. E 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0

Hi, I'm a R newbie and I have a supervised 2-class classification problem. To find out the best representation of my data (dim = 45). I want to perform LDA und QDA on the diffrent data representations to find out, which is best to discriminate the 2 sets. For LDA there exists a method plot.lda shows (in the 2 class case) a histogramm of the data, projected onto the linear discriminants (pleas

Hi, I have been using some of the functions in r for classification purposes, chiefly lda, qda, knn and nnet. My problem is that the only one I can figure out how to represenent graphically is lda (using plot.lda). I have tried 'fooling' this function into accepting qda input for plotting but to no avail. I wonder if you have any suggestions? Thanks alot, Anne Marie Power Marine lab.

Hi listers, Does anybody knows if the function qda for quadratic discriminant analysis provides the coefficients of quadratic discriminants... Well, I find out that for the linear discriminant analysis lda, the fonction provides the coefficients...

Dear List, I'd like to run a discriminate analysis on a data set, but have no idea how to go about this in R. I have attempted to locate info in the manuals, but may not be consulting the right sections or documents. Can anyone point me to appropriate documentation if such exists. Many thanks, David S.

Hello, Does anyone knows how to do the plots from discriminant analysis (lda and qda)? Is there any computed function to do the stepwise procedure? thank you in advance Marta

Hi all! I am Angela, an Italian researcher and I am looking for an application that allows working in team, making a shared codebook, share a text database and code it. I tried AnSWR (the CDC''s QDA application) but its installation is too complicated for students and it is not working on latest version of Windows. What about Weft? Is it possible to share a project or, at least, merge

Hi all, Probably a simple question, but I just can't find a simple answear in the older threads or anywhere else. I've added some new vectors as columns in a data frame using cbind(). As they're all put as the last columns inte the data frame, I would like to move them to specific positions. How do you do to change the position of a column in a data frame? I know I can use

I have used PCA for data classification by visual examination of the 3D scatter plot of the first 3 principal components. I now want to use the results to predict the class for new data. I have used predict.princomp to predict the scores and then visualise the results on a 3D scatter plot using the rgl library. However, is there an R function that will fit the new data to the class assignments
