similar to: case weights in coxph (survival)

Hi, The following function does work optimize.W<-function(W,k,G,Groups,cph.call,z){ n<-length(Groups) grp.wt<-rep(0,n) for(i in 1:(length(G))){ ind<-Groups == G[i] if(G[i]!=k){ grp.wt[ind]<-W[i] } elsegrp.wt[ind]<-1 } z<-data.frame(cbind(z,grp.wt=grp.wt)) #needed to make the case weights #part of the data

Hi all, I am trying to get bootstrap resampled estimates of covariates in a Cox model using cph (Design library). Using the following I get the error: > ddist2.abr <- datadist(data2.abr) > options(datadist='ddist2.abr') > cph1.abr <- cph(Surv(strt3.abr,loc3.abr)~cov.a.abr+cov.b.abr, data=data2.abr, x=T, y=T) > boot.cph1 <- bootcov(cph1.abr, B=100, coef.reps=TRUE,

Dear R users, My question is more methodology related rather than specific to R usage. Using time on study as time in a cox model, eg: library(Design) stanf.cph1=cph(Surv(time, status) ~ t5+id+age, data=stanford2, surv=T) #In this case the 1000-day survival probability would be: stanf.surv1=survest(stanf.cph1, times=1000) #Age in this case is a covariate. #I now want to compare the above

hi, we want to replace our nt4 pdc/bdc with samba and we use windows nt4 terminal servers with citrix in our environment. as far as i know, we will get a problem here.

Hi all, I'm having some difficulty passing arguments into lm() from within a function, and I was hoping someone wiser in the ways of R could tell me what I'm doing wrong. I have the following: lmwrap <- function(...) { wts <- somefunction() print(wts) # This works, wts has the values I expect fit <- lm(weights=wts,...) return(fit) } If I call my function lmwrap, I get

Dear Community, I have a data set with two columns, bird number and mass. Individual birds were captured 1-13 times and weighed each time. I would like to remove those individuals that were captured only once, so that I can assess mass variability per bird. I¹ve tried many approaches with no success. Can anyone recommend a way to remove individuals that were captured only once? Thanks, Ray

Hi, I am doing double for loops to calculate SDs with some weights and wondering if I can get rid of the outer for loop as well. I made a simple examples which is essentially what I am doing. Thanks for your help! -Young #------------------------------------------------------ # wtd.var is Hmisc package # you can replace the 3 lines inside for loop as # sdx[i,] =

I downloaded the latest version of R (1.5.0) and issued a read.table() command that used to work with (1.3.1). Unfortunately I erased 1.3.1 from my hard drive after I downloaded R 1.5.0. Here's the command and the error message I get under 1.5.0: > golub1<-read.table("C:/Microarrays/code/data_set_ALL_AML_train.txt",sep="\t",q

Hello, I've been working with "nnet" and now I'd like to use the weigths, from the fitted model, to iterpret some of variables impornatce. I used the following command: mts <- nnet(y=Y,x=X,size =4, rang = 0.1, decay = 5e-4, maxit = 5000,linout=TRUE) X is (m x n) Y is (m x 1) And then I get the coeficients by: Wts<-coef(mts) b->h1 i1->h1

Hi. I am running SAMBA 2.0.7 on HP-UX 11.00 and HP-UX 10.20. I have tried adding the MultipleUsersOnConnection registry key onto my Microsoft Windows NT Server 4 Terminal Server Edition servers, running with Service Pack 6. After I make this change in the registry and reboot my WTS servers all my samba connections from the servers are still being made with one process instead of being split

I could use some help understanding how nls parses the formula argument to a model.frame and estimates the model. I am trying to utilize the functionality of the nls formula argument to modify garchFit() to handle other variables in the mean equation besides just an arma(u,v) specification. My nonlinear model is y<-nls(t~a*sin(w*2*pi/365*id+p)+b*id+int,data=t1,

Is there an implementation of a reasonable k-nearest neighbor finder already in one of the packages? -- +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Robert Gentleman phone : (617) 632-5250 | | Associate Professor fax: (617) 632-2444 | | Department of Biostatistics office: not yet

At a snail's pace I keep on translating an introduction to R into italian; I have reached the section describing the glm() function, in which some example code is presented. The very last line of code, before the beginning of the section on Poisson models is: ldp <- ld50(coef(fmp)); ldl <- ld50(coef(fmp)); c(ldp, ldl) which of course gives results 43.663 and 43.663; the correct code

Hi everyone, I admit I am a bit of an R novice, and I was hoping someone could help me with this error message: Warning message: In lm.fit(x, y, offset = offset, singular.ok = singular.ok, ...) : extra arguments weigths are just disregarded. My equation is: lm( Y ~ X1 + X2 + X3, weigths = seq(0.1, 1, by = 0.1)) -- View this message in context:

Hello, I thought some of you might like to know about a GNU project that is complementary to R in some ways, namely gretl http://ricardo.ecn.wfu.edu/gretl (GNU Regression, Econometrics and Time-series Library). gretl (a library with cli and gui clients, the gui using GTK) is designed to be very user-friendly, and suitable for teaching econometrics. It has a fairly wide variety of least-squares

I want to create a neural network, and then everytime it receives new data, instead of creating a new nnet, i want to use a backpropagation algorithm to adjust the weights in the already created nn. I'm using nnet package, I know that nn$wts gives the weights, but I cant find out which weights belong to which conections so I could implement the backpropagation algorithm myself. But if anyone

Hi, We a re planning to migrate from the Windows NT 4.0 Terminal Server to the Windows 2000 version sometime within the next few weeks. From the newsgroups and have gathered that the MULIPLEUSERSONCONNECTION registry option that allowed each connection from the Terminal Server to start a separate smb process has been disabled in the 2000 version. Is there any work arounds that can be done in

I'm trying to do a Windows build of Ray Brownrigg's port of the maps library, and running into some problems. There's a makefile for the shared library. I suspect that I just need to change that to get it right, and everything will build properly, but I'm running into trouble. Here's the original makefile, along with my comments about changes: >SRC= mapget.c mapproject.c
