similar to: Rpart question - labeling nodes with something not in x$frame

I was under the impression that the tree method (e.g. as implemented in rpart) was insensitive to monotonic transformations of the dependent variable. e.g. Breiman Olshen et al. Classification and Regression Trees state "In a standard data structure [a tree] is invariant under all monotone transformations of individual ordered varaibles" (p. 57) However, I get very different results

Hello I am running R 1.8.1 on a Windows platform I am attempting to fit an ordinal logistic regression model, using the polr function, as described in Venables and Ripley. But when I try model4 <- polr(ypsxcat~committed + as.factor(sex) + as.factor(drugusey) + anycsw + as.factor(sex)*committed + as.factor(sex)*as.factor(drugusey)+as.factor(sex)*anycsw, data = duhray) I get a message

Hello again I have modeled a tree using rpart, with the DV being a log transformation of the variable I am really interested in (I transformed the DV due to extreme skewness). By default, text.rpart labels the nodes with the value of yval, which in this case is not what I want; I'd like the labels to be on the original metric, but label in text.rpart requires a "column name of

After entering ?library(rpart)?, I tried to plot an existing rpart tree, and got this error message: Error: couldn't find function "plot.rpart". However, ??plot.rpart? does bring up the help for the function. The same things occur for text.rpart, although print(my.tree) does work. So, I tried to re-install rpart using Packages | Install from CRAN, but then I get this

Hi. I got a problem, perhaps someone can help me....... every time, when I want to plot data, both axis are labeled by default like data[1,] and data[2,] how can I make a plot without ANY labeling? does anyone know that? thanks for helping Michael [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

e.g. class Asset < ActiveRecord::Base validates_presence_of :asset_number, :make, :model, :location, :name, :serial_number validates_numericality_of :asset_number validates_uniqueness_of :asset_number belongs_to :user belongs_to :location belongs_to :asset_type, :foreign_key => ''type_id'' end class Location < ActiveRecord::Base validates_presence_of :name

I have a list of TimeSheet objects from an ealier AR query, which I can sort by the full name of the user like so: @time_sheet_entries.sort! { |a,b| a.user.full_name <=> b.user.full_name } I can sort by the started time like so: @time_sheet_entries.sort! { |a,b| a.start_time <=> b.start_time } My question is how do I do a sort so that the list is sorted primarily by user.full_name

Hi, I have a function foo(x,y) and a dataframe, DF, comprised of two vectors, x & w, as follows : x w 1 1 1 2 2 1 3 3 1 4 4 1 etc I would like to apply the function foo to each 'pair' within DF e.g foo(1,1), foo(2,1), foo(3,1) etc I have tried >apply(DF,foo) >apply(DF[,],foo) >apply(DF[DF$x,DF$w],foo) However, none of the above worked. Can anyone help ?

I suspect my problem is similar to having an order and wanting to have order items as part of the order, so I''ll explain the problem in those more familiar terms and then explain what if anything makes my actual situation different at the end. In an Order lets say you have: shipping_address and a shipped bool. OrderItem has quantity and name So Order has_many :OrderItems, and OrderItem

Hello I posted a very similar question last week, but the responses I received indicated that my post was unclear.... I have a regression tree created in rpart with tr.logypsx <- rpart(log(YPSX + 1) ~AGE+drugfact+sexfact+as.numeric(OBSX) +WINDLE + EABUSED + PABAU + positive.par + control.par + lenient.par, xval = 10, method = 'anova', cp = 0.0001, data = duhray2) and then

Good day! I am GUI-challenged, and proud of it, but I would like a bit of help.
