R example of Mahalanobis, Kolmogrov, ROC, Gini, Delta
Dear R helpers:
I have another question regarding "R" command. It is also measuring Credit
Scoring.
I need to measure the classifying method for customer's credit score. (ex.
regression line by Fisher)
If credit card company already classify their customers credit :
Good customers / Bad customers
[by using regression line; ex) inside of line: Good/ outside: Bad]
And I found

two-dimensional Kolmogorov-Smirnow (2DKS) test
The reference below describes the utility of the two-dimensional
Kolmogorov-Smirnow (2DKS) test for detecting relationships in bivariate
data. If this test has been implemented in R I would love to know about
it!
Thanks,

Mahalanobis Distance
Hello R helpers,
I'm trying to use Mahalanobis distance to calculate distance of two time
series, to make some comparations with euclidean distance, DTW, etc, but I'm
having some dificults.
I have, for example, two objects:
s.1 <- c( 5.6324702, 1.3994353, -3.2572327, -3.8311846, -1.2248719,
0.9894694, -2.2835332, -5.1969285, -5.2823988, -3.1499400, -1.7307950,

outlier identification: is there a redundancy-invariant substitution for mahalanobis distances?
Dear R-experts,
Searching the help archives I found a recommendation to do multivariate
outlier identification by mahalanobis distances based on a robustly estimated
covariance matrix and compare the resulting distances to a chi^2-distribution
with p (number of your variables) degrees of freedom. I understand that
compared to euclidean distances this has the advantage of being scale-invariant.

Mahalanobis
Dear all
Why isn'it possible to calculate Mahalanobis distances with R for a matrix
with 1 row (observations) more than the number of columns (variables)?

> mahalanobis(x=mydata, center=apply(mydata,2,mean), cov=var(mydata))

Questions on Mahalanobis Distance
Hello,
I am a new R user and trying to learn how to implement the mahalanobis
function to measure the distance between to 2 population centroids. I
have used STATISTICA to calculate these differences, but was hoping to learn
to do the analysis in R. I have implemented the code as below, but my
results are very different from that of STATISTICA, and I believe I may not
have interpreted the help

Using the mahalanobis( ) function
Hello all,
I am a 2 month newbie to R and am stumped. I have a data set that I've run multivariate stats on using the manova function (I included the data set). Now it comes time for a table of effect sizes with significance. The univariate tests are easy. Where I run into trouble filling in the table of effect sizes is the Mahalanobis D as an effect size. I've included the table so

Mahalanobis distance
I am a new R user. i have a question about Mahalanobis distance.actually i have 300 rows and 7 columns. columns are different measurements, 300 rows are genes. since genes can
classify into 4 categories. i used dist() with euclidean distance and cmdscale to do MDS plot. but find out Mahalanobis distance may be
better. how do i use Mahalanobis() to generate similar dist object which i can use

Mahalanobis distance and probability of group membership using Hotelling's T2 distribution
I want to calculate the probability that a group will include a particular
point using the squared Mahalanobis distance to the centroid. I understand
that the squared Mahalanobis distance is distributed as chi-squared but that
for a small number of random samples from a multivariate normal population
the Hotellings T2 (T squared) distribution should be used.
I cannot find a function for

vectorization instead of using loop
Dear all,
I've sent this question 2 days ago and got response from Sarah. Thanks for
that. But unfortunately, it did not really solve our problem. The main issue
is that we want to use our own (manipulated) covariance matrix in the
calculation of the mahalanobis distance. Does anyone know how to vectorize
the below code instead of using a loop (which slows it down)?
I'd really appreciate

About help on 'mahalanobis'
Hi,
help on 'mahalanobis' (in the stats package in Rv2.2.0) now says:
"Description:
Returns the Mahalanobis distance of all rows in 'x' and the vector
mu='center' with respect to Sigma='cov'. This is (for vector 'x')
defined as
D^2 = (x - mu)' Sigma^{-1} (x - mu)"
It does return D^2 as written. However,

Clustering with Mahalanobis Distance
Dear R ExpeRts,
I'm having memory difficulties using mahalanobis distance to trying to cluster in R. I was wondering if anyone has done it with a matrix of 6525x17 (or something similar to that size). I have a matrix of 6525 genes and 17 samples. I have my R memory increased to the max and am still getting "cannot allocate vector of size" errors. My matrix "x" is

Have just recently got back into R after a long break and have been amazed at

reference for mahalanobis {stats}
The help on mahalanobis {stats} does not include any reference. I'm
interested in understand why Mahalanobis is defined in its current way
and how to use it. Could somebody point me a good book on this? I have
looked through a few books, but they all give very light explanation
on it.

some thoughts on outlier detection, need help!
Dear listers:
I have an idea to do the outlier detection and I need to use R to
implement it first. Here I hope I can get some input from all the
guru's here.
I select distance-based approach---
step 1:
calculate the distance of any two rows for a dataframe. considering
the scaling among different variables, I choose mahalanobis, using
variance as scaler.
step 2:
