Dear R community, In the excellent nlme package the default diagnostic plot graphs the innermost residuals against innermost fitted values. I recently fit a mixed-effects model in which there was a very clear positive linear trend in this plot. I inferred that this trend occurred because my fixed effect was a two-level factor, and my random effect was a 12-level factor. The negative residuals

I don't get the same result, do you have a package loaded that would change the default behavior (such as Hmisc)? > list(grp.1) [[1]] [1] 1 2 Levels: 1 2 > list(grp.1[mask]) [[1]] [1] 1 Levels: 1 2 > library(Hmisc) <<snip>> > list(grp.1[mask]) [[1]] [1] 1 Levels: 1 --Matt > version _ platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch i386 os

Greetings all, I'm trying to figure out how to calculate the inverse CDF (i.e. a quantile) for a non-central F distribution. I could put together a quick numerical solver routine using the CDF, but I wonder if there's a function that I've missed that would be more efficient? Thank-you, Andrew Andrew Robinson Ph: 208 885 7115 Department of Forest Resources Fa: 208 885

Hi all, I'm trying to find a way to get xyplot to produce a second set of axes outside the right hand side of the graph. This is my progress so far: EE <- equal.count(ethanol$E, number=9, overlap=1/4) xyplot(NOx ~ C | EE, data = ethanol, prepanel = function(x, y) prepanel.loess(x, y, span = 1), xlab = "Compression Ratio", ylab = "NOx (micrograms/J)",

If I place par(new=T) before I create a plot in a script that is sent to a pdf device, the pdf is unopenable and reports itself as having no pages. The postscript device seems to ignore the par instruction. I guess one of these is a bug, but I don't know which one! --please do not edit the information below-- Version: platform = i386-pc-linux-gnu arch = i386 os = linux-gnu system =

Hello all, Here's my query: Running R 1.6.2 on FreeBSD 5.0, and on WinXP, and I find that the following hangs the process: dchisq(alpha=0.01, df=1, ncp=295) but it does work for ncp < 294.92. Is this general? Best wishes to all, Andrew Andrew Robinson Ph: 208 885 7115 Department of Forest Resources Fa: 208 885 6226 University of Idaho E : andrewr at uidaho.edu PO

Dear R-community, I'm using Sweave to produce reports. The reports require the "axis" command. When I run axis the program returns NULL as well as creating the axis. > plot(1:4, rnorm(4), axes=FALSE) > axis(1, 1:4, LETTERS[1:4]) NULL > So, my Sweave tex files have \begin{Schunk} \begin{Soutput} NULL \end{Soutput} \end{Schunk} in front of each graphic that requires

Hello, I have been searching for ways to obtain these for combinations of fixed factors and levels other than the 'baseline' group (contrasts coded all 0's) from a mixed-effects model in lme. I've modelled the continuous variable y as a function of a continuous covariate x, and fixed factors A, B, and C. The fixed factors have two levels each and I'd like to know whether

I would appreciate some thoughts on using the bootstrap functions in the library "bootstrap" to estimate confidence intervals of ICC values calculated in lme. In lme, the ICC is calculated as tau/(tau+sigma-squared). So, for instance the ICC in the following example is 0.116: > tmod<-lme(CINISMO~1,random=~1|IDGRUP,data=TDAT) > VarCorr(tmod) IDGRUP = pdLogChol(1)

I have two lists: xa <- list( X=c(1,2,3), Y=c(4,5,6), Z=c(7,8,9) ) xb <- with( barley, tapply( X=seq(1:nrow(barley)), INDEX=site , FUN=function(z)yield[z])) I can convert xa to a dataframe easily with: as.data.frame(xa) But if i try the same with xb I get: as.data.frame(xb) Error in as.data.frame.default(xb) : can't coerce array into a data.frame What

Dear R friends, I know that this topic has been mulled over before, and that there is a substantial difference between the convergence criteria for JMP and those for R. I apologize that this is somwehat raking cold coals. Summary: A model/data combination achieves convergence in JMP, and survives a reasonably rigorous examination (sensible parameter estimates, well-behaved surface,

Why does stop("we are done") print "Error in eval.with.vis(expr, envir, enclos) :" ? It would seem to me that a plain stop() is not an error, and that it would make more sense to have an error() function that is different from a stop(). Is there a rationale here that I am missing? sincerely, /iaw

< Does anyone know why they're called random deviates, as opposed to random numbers?> Others will probably give you some technical reason about random numbers can be considered as random deviates from a mean (I think at least the 1875 Galton paper at http://www.mugu.com/galton/ uses similar terminology (I'm not claiming this is the earliest use - just the easiest to access at the

Hello, is there any function to print (using "cat" or "print" etc.) a table of values row per row in a exact order, even if the value has 3 digit and in the next row eg. 5 digits? This means I want to print a number with 3 digits with 2 spaces in front and a number with 4 digits only with one space in front. regards Andreas

Dear All, I need some help arranging data that was imported. The imported data frame looks something like this (the actual file is huge, so this is example data) DF: IDKey X1 Y1 X2 Y2 X3 Y3 X4 Y4 Name1 21 15 25 10 Name2 15 18 35 24 27 45 Name3 17 21 30 22 15 40 32 55 I would like to create a new data frame with the following NewDF: IDKey X Y Name1 21 15 Name1

I have a 12" G4 iBook with the latest os (Panther) with the recent updates. When I start R by double clicking, it expands for a fraction of a second and then, nothing happens. There is mention in the readme about using something called "i-install" to uninstall a mistakenly installed library, but I do not know how to do this. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Martin

Dear R people, I have a naive question: after fitting "lm" to a data, I can't extract the pvalue corresponding to a specific covariate in a direct way. Could anyone give me a hint? Thank you very much. Frank
