Hi R experts, I'm trying to use nls() for a piecewise linear regression with the first slope constrained to 0. There are 10 data points and when it does converge the second slope is almost always over estimated for some reason. I have many sets of these 10-point datasets that I need to do. The following segment of code is an example, and sorry for the overly precise numbers, they are just

Hi, I have a small dataset that I'm fitting a segmented regression using nls on. I get a step below minimum factor error, which I presume is because residual sum of square is still "not small enough" when steps in the parameter space is already below specified/default value. However, when I look at the trace, the convergence seems to have been reached. I initially thought I might

Hi, I want to plot grouped bars to compare 95% confidence interval estimates from two models. Each bar represents a 95% confidence interval estimate of a coefficient from one of the two models. Each group represents confidence interval estimates of the same coefficient from the two models. I think such a bar plot will nicely present whether 95% confidence interval estimates of the same

Hi R fans, As a newbie following the five-hour rule (after hitting my head against the wall for five hours, post to this list), I am appealing for some help understanding geom_rect() in ggplot2. What I want to do is very simple. I want to generate a plot of rectangles. Each one represents a business cycle. The x-values will be pairs representing the start and end of each cycle. The y-values

What am I missing? When I run the code below I get the error message "Error: ggplot2 doesn't know how to deal with data of class function" Googling suggests a message of "Error: ggplot2 doesn't know how to deal with data of class XXX" is not uncommon but I don't see why I am getting a "function" error unless I am using some reserved word?

I want to make a plot, but instead of showing _numerical_ values, I would like to show _symbolic_ values. For example, I want to plot a function y = a x + b, where x varies between Xmin and Xmax. I would like the plot to show, in the x-axis, the strings Xmin and Xmax, instead of their numeric values. Is it possible? Alberto Monteiro

Dear R experts, I am sorry for sending this email again. I would imagine yesterday and maybe today, have been very busy days with the release of R v 2.7.0. I join all the R users who are very gratful for your contant work and efforts, specially knowing that you are doing this for the sake of science, without gettig any compensation for that. Having written that, I decided to send the

With some help from those with expertise on this list, I managed to produce a plot using trellis that looked like I wanted it to look. Now, I need to take the same plot and make the lines on it color, but I want to specify the color for the lines myself. I've managed to make the key use the colors I want. I've managed to make the symbols of the actual plot use the colors I want. But I

Relatively new user with a question regarding abline. I want to draw a st. line fit to some data but I want the line to span the range of the x-data and NOT the plot limits. In short the line spans xmin to xmax(of plot axis) but I want it to span xmin to xmax (of x data). Can this but done with abline or do I have to use lines and construct the line from a+bx?

I have a xml exported by Manifold GIS but I'm not being able to import it into R using XLM package. The file have this structure: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> - <layout> <name>Layout 2</name> <pagesByX>1</pagesByX> <pagesByY>1</pagesByY> - <elements> <legend

I have a function that does some plotting. I then add lines to the plot. If executed one line at a time, there is not a problem. If I execute the function, though, I get: Error in ans[[1]] : subscript out of bounds This always occurs after the second lines command, and doesn't happen with all of my data points (some do not have errors). Any ideas? Thanks, Sean

Hi, I think I have identified a inaccuracy in dchisq when the non-centrality parameter is non-zero and large. Here's a little test: sys.dchisq.test <- function(N = 100000,mean = 0) { z <- rnorm(N,mean = mean, sd = 1) x <- z^2 xmin <- min(x) xmax <- max(x) br <- seq(xmin,xmax,length = 101) dbr <- br[2]-br[1] hist(x,br) p <- dchisq(br,df = 1,ncp =

A bit new to R and I'm working on something a bit more challenging than I am used to- so here's whats going on: Data inputs: 9 different shapefiles (.shp) of different point locations (lat, long) shapefile bounding box (lat/long corner points (14, 1) (15,1) (14, 2) (15,2)) 1 .csv of lat/long coordinates for points Goal: a-

Dear All, Does anyone know how to get the maximum/minimum value of a function using R, I think there should be an instruction, but i can not find it in help files Thank you in advance for your help :) [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I've wrote some code to simulate a random walk in 2 dimensions on a lattice. Basically I want to add something in to make it plot it point by point so you can see what is going on. Heres my code for the random walk in 2d RW2D<-function(N) { i<-0 xdir<-0 ydir<-0 xpos<-vector() xpos[1]<-xdir ypos<-vector() ypos[1]<-ydir for (i in 1:N-1)

Hello everyone, I want to get a 1km by lkm grid raster image using my csv data. If I call latitude=a, longitude=b and preciptation=c. a<-(1,2,3,4,5) b<-(6,7,8,9,10) c<-(10,20, 30,40, 50) Then I found an example in r help which goes like pts = read.table("file.csv",......) library(sp) library(rgdal) proj4string(pts)=CRS("+init=epsg:4326") # set it to lat-long pts =

Hi all, I'd like to quantize a variable to map it into a limited set of integers for use with a colormap. "image" and filled.contour" do this mapping inside somewhere, but I'd like to choose the colors for plotting a set of polygons. Is there a pre-existing function that does something like this well? i.e., is capable of using 'breaks'?

Rhelpers: Having a problem solving this. I have an xyplot call that looks like this: print(xyplot(temp_species_EAM_Pred_Pop$x+temp_species_NULL_Pred_Pop$x~temp_species_EAM_Pred_Pop$Action,main=current_species, xlab="Action",ylab="Predicted Pop", xlim=c(xmin,xmax),ylim=c(ymin,ymax),

Hi- I'm trying to make my PCA (princomp) colored. In my csv excel sheet, I have the first column numbered according to the groupings I want to assign to the PCA. I've played around with trying to set this first column as the color vector, but haven't had any luck. Any suggestions? Thanks, Hillary [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
