Dear Experts, I need to calculate the cdf of the standard normal distribution, i.e. H(x) = 1/sqrt(2*pi) integral(exp(-z^2/2) dz), where z is b/w -infi to infi. I know there should be a way to do it in R, but did not know to do it. I'd appreciate any help you could offer. Charlie Liu Graduate student intern at EPA/ECO

Hey, all Do you how to calculate the trigamma function, that is d**2(log(gamma(x))) / dx**2. The second-order derivative of log(Gamma(x))? I cannot find it in the R package, and somebody knows who or where to get such one? Thanks.

Hi, R-listers I tried to plot several graphs in a sigle x-y coordinate settings, like the following: |(y) s | ****** s | ***** s | sssssssssssssssssss |_______________________________(x) where "*" and "s" denote two diffrent plots. However, when I used plot(data1); % data1 is the data points of "*"

Dear R-listers, I have a dxr matrix Z, where d > r. And the product Z*Z' is a singular square matrix. The problem is how to get the left inverse U of this singular matrix Z*Z', such that U*(Z*Z') = I? Is there any to figure it out using matrix decomposition method? Thanks a lot for your help. Fred

Hello all, I would like to plot the emperical CDF, normal CDF and pareto CDF in the same graph and I amusing the following codes. "z" is a vector and I just need the part when z between 1.6 and 3. plot(ecdf(z), do.points=FALSE, verticals=TRUE, xlim=c(1.6,3),ylim=c(1-sum(z>1.6)/length(z), 1)) x <- seq(1.6, 3, 0.1) lines(x,pgpd(x, 1.544,0.4373,-0.2398), col="red") y

Hey, R-listers I was recommended to try using smooth.spline function for estimating 2-Dimensinal curve given a data set. So will you please tell me where to get this R function? Or which package provides this function? Thanks for your point. Fred

Hey, I want to draw several plots sequently, but have to make them dispaly in one figure. So how to achieve this? Thanks. Fred

Hey, All In principal component analysis (PCA), we want to know how many percentage the first principal component explain the total variances among the data. Assume the data matrix X is zero-meaned, and I used the following procedures: C = covriance(X) %% calculate the covariance matrix; [EVector,EValues]=eig(C) %% L = diag(EValues) %%L is a column vector with eigenvalues as the elements percent

Hello all, After beating my head against the wall for a few hours, I give up. I have two problems. 1. If I use seq() to generate a POSIXct series that crosses a daylight savings to stardard time change I get two values for the first day of change. The time change is Nov 6,2011. The value for Nov 7 turns into 23:00 on Nov 6, thus two values for Nov 6. (see below) So I put a time value (noon)

Hi, there. Does anyone know the R function for calculating the cdf of bivariate normal distribution function? Thanks. Yulei [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, Does anyone know what the distribution for the product of two correlated normal? Say I have X~N(a, \sigma1^2) and Y~N(b, \sigma2^2), and the \rou(X,Y) is not equal to 0, I want to know the pdf or cdf of XY. Thanks a lot in advance. yu [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, guys, I am trying to sample from a truncated normal/gamma distribution. But only the far end of the distribution (where the probability is very low) is left. e.g. mu = - 4; sigma = 0.1; The distribution is Normal(mu,sigma^2) truncated on [0,+Inf]; How can I get a sample? I tried to use inverse CDF method, but got Inf as answers. Please help me out. Also, pls help me on the similar

Hey, all Now I am using EM algorithm to do some optimization. Within that E-step, I have to calculate some multivariate integration given some parameter values Theta and function form of a probability density function f. So I want to know if there are some package in R to do such numerical integration given such function form and parameter values? Thanks for your kind support on this. Have a

Hello everyone Is there a function/command to simulate from "matrix variate normal distribution" in R. A follow up question would be is there a function/command to obtain the density, distribution and quantile function of "matrix variate normal distribution" in R. Wikipedia has a good description of "matrix variate normal distribution" which is also alternatively

Hello, I'm quite new with R and so I would like to know if there is a command to calculate an integral. In particular I simulated a bivariate normal distribution using these simple lines: rbivnorm <- function(n, # sample size mux, # expected value of x muy, # expected value of Y sigmax, # standard deviation of

Dear Sir or Madam: Dose anyone know the R function which corresponds to "fcdf", a "F cumulative distribution function" of Matlab? http://esra.univ-paris1.fr/matlab5/toolbox/stats/fcdf.html Please guide me how to get this function if it is available. ..... or code it ab initio if no function in R language Thanks for kind reply further.
