Hi, I've lost my mind on it... I have to scatterplot two vectors, grouped by a third variable, with two different dimensions according to whether each cell line in the plot is sensitive or resistant to a given drug, and with a different color for each of 9 tissues of origin. Here's what I've done:

Hi everybody, this is a real dummy thing. I sorted a matrix based on a given column, and what I get is right, until it comes to columns of negative and positive values; than, "order" orders everything from max to min in the negative values, and then AGAIN from max to min in the positive values!!! Why isn't everything order from max to min, and that's it? Thank you!!! Attached

Dear friends. I have a paper (details below) examining the risk of renal failure after an operation. A logistic regression was done, and the coefficients to two regressors (age and creatinine) plus intercept with standard errors are given. These coefficients must be dependent in estimation, and when no details are given, I thought how I could most informatively get an impression as to how

I have to study censured datas concernig the occurence of infection at the point of insertion of catheter in patients with renal disease. Catheter may be removed for ather reasons than infection, in this case, the observation is censored. Each has exactly 2 observations. The question are the pronostic factors of infection (the other variables are; age, sex, type of renal disease...). Could you

Hello, I'm trying to use adabag to make bagging and boosting with bagging() and adabost.M1(), respectively, but in both cases it produces an abnormal termination of R. My code is: bagging(I.NOSOCO~EDAD+SEXO+ESTANCIA+ADMISI?N+T.CIRUG?+DURACI?N+CONTAMIN +PROFILAX+E.PREOPE+V.PERIFE+V.CENTRA+S.VESICA+S.NASOGA+DREN.ABI+DREN.CER

We are trying to read a sas export file into R. (Works fine on Mac by ftping the export file from solaris box and then importing to R with read.xport, this gives rational numbers etc.) Trying to do this on an IBM Power p655 running linux, reading the same sas export file as used on MAC, in this case the results are not rational. Many of the numbers are interpreted as INF etc. Is it possible

Dear friends - We have 25 rats, 14 of these subjected to partial removal of kidney tissue, 11 to sham operation, and then followed for 6 weeks. So far we have data on 26 urine metabolites measured by NMR 7 times during the observation. I have smoothed the measurements by b.splines in fda including a roughness penalty, and inspecting the mean curves for nephrectomized and sham animals indicate

I tried to post this a few times last week and it seems to have got stuck somehow so I'm trying from a different email in the hope that works. If somehow this has appeared on the list 20 tiems and I never saw any of them I apologize ;-) I'm basically an R-newbie. But I am VERY computer literate. But this has me stumped... All the examples for using the rmeta package to create a

If there are any other users who use AHRQ's SAS code comoanaly2010 and comformat2010 to create comorbidity variables, I thought you might be interested in the following PRELIM code we wrote to mimic its functionality in R. It seems to yield similar results, but may contain errors. Please feel free to comment (kindly) or enhance. I'm sure there are better ways to skin this cat, but we at

Dear R users I use Windows XP, R2.5.1 (I have read the posting guide, I have contacted the package maintainer first, it is not homework). In a research project on renal cell carcinoma we want to compute Harrell's c index, with optimism correction, for a multivariate Cox regression and also for some univariate Cox models. For some of these univariate models I have encountered an error

Thank you Frank and all for your advices. Here I attach the raw data from the Pawinski's paper. I have obtained permission from the corresponding Author to post it here for everyone. The only condition of use is that the Authors retain ownership of the data, and any publication resulting from these data must be managed by them. The dataset is composed as follows: patient number / MMF dose in

We are seeking a talented and driven postdoctoral fellow to join the laboratory of Jake Michaelson, PhD, assistant professor in the department of psychiatry at the University of Iowa. The Michaelson lab investigates the effect of genetic variation on the development and function of the brain, particularly in the context of neurodevelopmental conditions such as autism and language impairment. Our

Hello, I am using R to look at whole-genome gene expression data. This means about 27,000 genes, each with a vector of numbers reflecting expression at different tissues and times. I need to do an all against all co-expression calculation (basically, just calculate Pearson's r for every gene-gene pair). I try to store the result of such a thing in a 27000x27000 matrix, but r seems not to like

Dear all, I am currently analyzing a set of arrays hybe on the lattest affy Drosophila 2.0 GeneChip. I am trying to run simple annaffy analysis but can¹t find what is the name of the annotation file I need to use.

Hi, I have a set of genes and its chromosomal physical position in a text file. I want to view those genes in the chromosome using R package GenePlotter. Could any one please tell how to view this. Thanks in advance. Yours sincerely, S.Mahalakshmi [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Some time ago I was allowed to discuss "Diamond Graphs", and whether they would be useful in R, in this mailing list. The August 2003 issue of The American Statistician has finally arrived here and I have been able to read the article. A number of points of interest arise. 1. The article is "A Diamond-Shaped Equiponderant Graphical Display of the Effects of Two

I''m toying with the idea of organising a Ruby User Group for Singapore, hence, singapore.rb. I just want to find out who would be interested in participating in this. Also, I would really appreciate pointers on organising something like this. -- Practical_Guile::Clever_Tagline::Pending http://practicalguile.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi All , I been trying out RoR and reading the mailing list for sometimes and wondering if anyone of you guys from Singapore ? I am thinking of a meetup or something for RoR fans here. If you are , pls contact me by my email ? Thank you very much. regards billy PS : Apology for sending non-ruby question email in the list.

Hi, Kind of wondering if there are any in Singapore, and if so would like to meet up to chat and talk shop? Maybe even form a support group for Rails, or form a community of Rails developers here? I''ve been using Rails for the past months developing an in-house web application, a port from an older application. Thks! -- Sau Sheong http://www.saush.com http://read.saush.com
