similar to: variable selection methods for SVMs

All, I have long variable names that are being fed through splom (R 1.8.1). I'd like to resize the text printed on the diagonals to better display the names (unless anyone can suggest another approach - creative use of varnames). I've looked at the code, R-Help, ?splom and the Trellis User's Guide to no avail. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Max Kuhn, Ph.D. Becton Dickinson

I'm pleased to announce that my employer, Becton Dickinson, has an open position for software implementation in the Matlab and S languages. If interested, send a cover letter and resume (or CV) to Dr. Richard Moore at richard_moore at bd.com. If you have questions, contact myself (at jim_garrett at bd.com) or Dr. Moore.

Hi again! This might be more of a statistical question, but anyway: If i train several support vector machines with different degrees of polynomials, and as result, get that higher degrees not only have a higher test error, but also a higher in-sample error, why is that? I would assume i should get an in-sample error lower or at least the same as the linear case. i'm worried i did

Version 4.63 of the caret package is now on CRAN. caret can be used to tune the parameters of predictive models using resampling, estimate variable importance and visualize the results. There are also various modeling and "helper" functions that can be useful for training models. caret has wrappers to over 99 different models for classification and regression. See the package vignettes

We still have a long way to go with the data we were given by some drug discovery scientists. The problem is to select the few variables (Collective Variables), from a set of variables sampled during a Molecular Dynamics simulation, which exhibit a consistent and coherent relationship with the given minimum-work curve, all over the time it takes the molecule to migrate from the initial

Hello, I'm using R1.8.1 on windows 2000 and version 1.8.1 of the tools package. I am attempting to have Sweave write files to a different directory via: testfile <- system.file("Sweave", "Sweave-test-1.Rnw", package = "tools") ## create a LaTeX file Sweave( testfile, output = "C:/temp/Sweave-test-1.tex",

I'm using R 1.9.1 on suse server v9 enterprise with the gee package version 4.13-10. I have code that runs in an automated script. It uses the gee function from the gee package. The script is run quite often without error. I have a problem where the script locks up R when calling this function (it starts execution and never finishes). I was able to track down the offending data and determine

i can't delete several folders at once. I have a folder structure like folder1/folder2/folder3 (we use slash as hierarchy separator).

Hi, I am not sure if this should go to r-help or r-dev list. I have looked at some archives of R libraries but cannot seem to see a project that focuses on the new matrix factorization techniques that are showing up in the literature. I have made a list of them: https://sites.google.com/site/igorcarron2/matrixfactorizations they include Robust PCA, Dictionnary Learning, Sparse PCA and are

I'm learning to use R/Sweave/LaTeK to write my stat reports. Is there a way to have an executive summary in the beginning while still having the analysis code embedded? For example, a study has three independent objectives so I want my report to have three sections. Ideally the code chunk that answers the first objective would be embedded in the first section and so on.

Hi, I'm writing some code that will eventually see its way to a package (I hope). I've noticed that some functions are not set up using generic methods (while similar functions are). For example, mean is a generic method but var is not. Other operations that I've come across that could benefit from being generic are: qqplot, cor, cov, optimize/optimise. For example, if one were

Dear all, i searched for some classification methods and I have no glue if i took the right once. My problem: I have a matrix with 17000 rows and 33 colums (genes and patients). The patients are grouped into 3 diseases. No I want to classify the patients and for sure i want to know which rows are more helpful for the classification than others. I tried SVM and random forest. Do you think this
