Dear all, I would like to fit a von mises mixture to my data using the EM Algorithm. Unfornately, existing packages (including circstats) doesn't provide such method. So, does anybody have written such code ? Big thanks, Christophe, (R newbie)

Hi all, I'm curious if anyone has coded an Expectation-Maximization algorithm that could help me model some circular data I have. I'd like to model it as a mixture of uniform and Von Mises centered on 0, so the only free parameters is the mixing proportion and the kappa of the Von Mises. I couldn't find anything in the contributed packages that seemed to suit this purpose. Any

Hall all, Where can I find the two sample Cramer-von Mises test in R package? Thank you. Legendy -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Two-sample-Cramer-von-Mises-test-tp20174229p20174229.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Hi, this is my first help request so please bear with me. I've been running some normality tests using the nortest package. For some of my datasets the Cramer-von Mises normality test generates an extremely high probability (e.g., 1.637e+31) and indicates normality when the other tests do not. Is there something I'm misunderstanding or potentially a bug in the code? Below are the

Hi all, When I detect the spatial point pattern, I want to use the Cramer-von Mises statistic to assess the curve-wise significance of deviations from null hypotheses. Who can tell me which function in R package "Spatstat" can do this work? Thanks a lot Jeff [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi all, I am using "spatstat" to investigate the spatial structure of some plant populations, and I want to detect these patters with IPP and a Thomas process based on pair-correlation function. I know the function "pcfinhom" is available to characterize the IPP, but I have no idea about how to use the pcf with Thomas process? Additionally, generating simulation envelopes

Hello list, Is there any function in some package can calculate two sample Cramer-von Mises test statistic? I searched around and only find one sample version cvm.test() in nortest package. thanks, WC _________________________________________________________________ Don’t just search. Find.

Hi, ? I'm trying to carry out Cramer von Mises tests between pairs of vectors belonging to a discrete distribution (concretely frequencies from 0 to 200). However, the program crashes in the attempt. The problem seems to be that these vectors only have positive integer numbers (+ zero). When I add a random very small positive decimal to the non-decimal part everything works fine (files prm1

Hi, R guys: I'm using L-BFGS-B method of optim for minimization problem. My function called besselI function which need non-negative parameter and the besselI will overflow if the parameter is too large. So I set the constraint box which is reasonable for my problem. But the point outside the box was test, and I got error. My program and the error follows. This program depends on CircStats

Hello, Consider MCMC sampling with metropolis / metropolis hastings proposals and a density function with a given valid parameter space. How are MCMC proposals performed if the parameter could be located at the very extreme of the parameter space, or even 'beyond that' ? Example to express it and my very nontechnical 'beyond that': The von Mises distribution is a circular

I have a problem that deals with correlating wind velocity to seed collection data. The problem lies in that I have a wind data set that is contains 2000+ data points and weed collection data on the order of a couple hundred. Both data sets were collected for the same time period, but there is not a one-to-one wind velocity->seed location match. My understanding of correlation is that you

Thanks Dimitris!!! That's much clearer now. Still have a lot of work to do this weekend to understand every bit but your code will prove very useful.

Hi, I've currently to work with some circular data. Unfortunately I'm not very familiar with circular statistics and would really appreciate if I could get some help concerning the CircStats package this way. My data lies in the range 0 to 2*pi, and is transformed to radians (as expected by the CircStats methods). Calculating the mean direction (circ.mean) results for some datasets in a

I want to get the minimum arc (in degrees) needed to include a set of compass directions. I would like to use the range.circular() function of the package circular, because that package understands a compass-type of angle convention, but it gives results I don't understand. Howver, I can get the correct answer in the example below, 90 degrees, using the CircStats package. How can I make the

Dear R gurus - consider this plot: library(ggplot2) dat <- sample(1:8,100,replace=TRUE) smp <- ggplot(data.frame(dat), aes(x=factor(dat),fill=factor(dat))) + geom_bar(width=1) smp + coord_polar() Q1. How do I change the font size and weight of bar labels (1,2,3...)? I've been wallowing in the 'Themes' structure and I just can't figure out the correct place to change

Hi, i found a bug in circ.plot of CircStats package, namely that the plot ingore the datasets with value = 0. it's simple to fix it, but i cannot seem to figure out where to submit the fix. is there a official procedure of submitting bug report/patch to the contributed packages? -- View this message in context:

Hi, I got the following problem. I am doing a maximum likelihood estimation for a Kalman Filter. For this purpose, I have to invert an error matrix Ffast of dimension "no. parameters X no.parameters". The usualy optim methods often find only local minima, so I decided to make the optimization using the SANN algorithm, which is very slow already. However, this becomes a real problem
