Hello, I was wondering whether a Poisson mixture modeler/cluster analysis package is available for R. I scanned CRAN packages and couldn't find anything but I thought I'd ask. If not could anyone recommend a non-R open source package. I have found 'snob' but this program seems a bit hard to use in an automated, non interactive fashion. regards, Murad -- Murad Nayal M.D. Ph.D.

Hello! Some CS-guys (the type who knows what Church formalism is) keep asking me questions about formal definitions of R-language that I can not answer (or even understand). Is there some freely available papers which I can throw at them where it would be explained is R functional/OOP/procedural language, does it use weak/strong, dynamic/static typization, does it use lazy or ...(do not know

Hi, I want to use (similar to) las options in lattice (bwplot) plot. Actually I want to have x-axis labels as vertical instead of default horizontal. Thanks in advance for your help. Mahbub

Hello all, This might have been fixed in later versions (I am using R1.7.0), r-help archive contains messages reporting similar problems but no reports of codes fixes. I have encountered a couple of problems using the silhouette function. one occurs when the clustering contains clusters composed of 1 element (Martin Maechler posted code few months ago that fixes a similar problem that occurs

In Splus the code test.lm <- lm(y ~ x, data = test.data) plot(test.lm) generates a graphics window that contains multiple graph sheets that one may choose from via the "page" tabs at the bottom of the window. Is there a way to do this sort of thing in R? As another example, I have some repeated measures data with continuous outcomes and have been working with the nlme library in

Hello, I am trying to compare two histograms using barplot. the idea is to plot the histograms as pairs of columns side by side for each x value. I was able to do it using barplot before but I can't remember now for the life of me now how I did it in the past: > d [,1] [,2] -37.5 0.0000000000 2.789396e-05 -32.5 0.0001394700 5.578801e-05 -27.5 0.0019804742

Hi, I would like to step-through a non-visible function. but apparently I don't know enough about namespaces to get that to work: > methods(predict) ... deleted lines ...

Hi, I am trying to refine models of a continuous response variable and a number of categorical predictor variables. I know of some model refinement tools available in R that help in the selection of model terms like dropterm and addterm from MASS etc. However, I would also like to try to refine the model by 'coalescing' some levels of some of the predictor factors. Is there a standard

Hello, Is there a specific command to clear the graphics window. On occasion I need to construct plots using commands that don't clear the graphics window (like text, lines and points etc.) -only- and hence need to clear the graphics completely before hand. also, is there a way to restore the graphics parameters to default values, say in these cases where you forgot to save the original

Hello all, I am trying to use svm (from the e1071 package) to solve a binary classification problem. The two classes in my particular data set are unequally populated. class 'I' (for important) has about 3000 instances while class "B" (for background) has about 20,000. experimenting with different classifiers I realized that in cases where such an asymmetry exists there is a

This is very OT. If list readers can point me in the right direction, to other mailing lists, or web sites for recommended databases, that will be much appreciated! My wife's doctor wants to move records, for approximately 6000 patients (over a 12 year period), from paper (18th century) to a database (20th century). The data entry will be a PITA, for his secretaries, regardless of what

Hi sorry if this is the wrong place to post but I'm not sure where to go to and I'm a bit desperate. We just brought our Sunfire 6800 server and Storedge 9960 RAID array Solaris 8 back up after some maintenance and everything came back up 'clean' but I cannot get our SAMBA software to recognise any users or directories when logging in remotely from an apple or windows box.

Hi, I currently following some introductory material "Data mining with R", which was highly reccommended to me (its really great!). During my studies I tried to run a given function to identify and substitute unknown values. Seemingly, running this function (page 57) did not work and gives me an error message. It would be very easy just to copy and paste this function to ask for

Dear R-helpeRs, I was not sure if this is ESS-specific or Mac-specific etc, so I send in the main list. I had the setup emacs+ess+R 2.2.1 running fine (on a powerbook G4). I recently upgraded R to 2.3.0 and it runs fine from the GUI and from the terminal. However, when I try to run it from emacs (which was running fine with R2.2.1) I get the "Process R is not running" message.

I have a little problem, I cannot solve (at least reasonable fast) I use gnu-emacs 21.2.1 with r-1.5.1 on windows 95. In recent versions I changed "process-coding-system-alist" (C-x[REt]p) to "latin-1". Then I was able to plot german "????" etc(rgui does make this correct). With the new R version this does not work any more. I tried to use some other codings systems
