Dear Konrad, I presume that the system can be written as follows, where h0, d0, ga0, kga and kd are given: err1 = h + hd + hga - h0; err2 = d + hd - d0; err3 = ga + hga - ga0; err4 = hga - kga*h*ga; err5 = hd - kd*h*d; All error terms should be zero. Do you need (a) the symbolic solution or (b) is a numeric solution fine? I do not have any experience with yacas or caracas. But see below. ###

Dear R users, I have to call fortran program from within R (R 2.8.1 on ubuntu 8.10 machine). Suppose I have a fortran code like this (this is only a toy model, my working model is far more complex, but input/output is similar) DOUBLE PRECISION FUNCTION model(times, alfa, beta) DOUBLE PRECISION alfa, beta, times model=beta*sin(times)+alfa*cos(times) END FUNCTION which

At work after updating to R 2.5 I get an error using epitab from package epitools, when at home (R 2.4) I get no error. Could someone help me?

Take a look at lmekin() in the coxme package. The motivating data set for my development of coxme was the Minnesota Family Breast Cancer project: 24050 subjects in 462 families. The random effect is an intercept per subject with sigma^2 K as its variance where K is the kinship matrix (1 for self-self, .5 for parent-child or sib-sib, .25 for uncle-neice, etc). lmekin is a linear models front

Hi all, I want to calculate distances between phylogenetic trees. I found functions for symmetric difference (e.g. in ape and in some other packages). In addition to this I also want to calculate quartets and nearest neighbor interchange distances; are there any functions for this? My apologies if they exist and I overlooked. best regards

Hello, I am trying to import a phylogenetic tree from Mesquite into R. When I use the read.nexus command I get the following message: Warning message: In matrix(x, ncol = 2, byrow = TRUE) : data length [589] is not a sub-multiple or multiple of the number of rows [295] A phylo object is created but I am unable to plot it (when I try R freezes) and I can tell by looking at the tip labels that

Can you recommend an R library that will help me create a diagram of a phylogenetic tree on which specific images are placed at appropriate nodes of the tree? For example, I have specific image files associated with each member of the phylogenetic tree, and I would like to automate the display of the image next to the correct node of the tree. I can provide an image file with an example.

Hello, My name is Sivan and I am a master degree student in statistics,my problem is as follows: I have a dataset containing gene sequences and I would like to create a phylogenetic tree from it. The problem that I can't seem to find a function to do this kind of operation. I read the ape package manual and I haven't found a command that takes raw data and turns it into a tree. does anyone

Hello R users, Can any one please help me to find a way to build phylogenetic tree by R program from any distance matrix. Suppose I have a data like : MATRIX [1] '1' 0.0 [2] '2' 0.071 0.0 [3] '3' 0.036 0.286 0.0 [4] '4' 0.429 0.75 0.714 0.0 [5] '5' 0.679 0.179 0.214 0.536 0.0 [6] '6' 0.893 0.929 0.964 0.464 0.357 0.0 [7]

I'm trying to select a model under PCA using independent contrasts. Since PICs need to be forced through the origin I've been using lmorigin for the original regression, but it doesn't appear that stepAIC recognizes it. I keep receiving an error message - "Error in na.fail.default(list(Phenology = c(NA_integer_, NA_integer_, : missing values in object" I'm having

Hello, I am trying to carry out a phylogenetic autoregression to test whether my data show a phylogenetic signal, but I keep calculating bizzare R-squared values. My script is: > library(ape) > x <-

Hello, Is it possible to include information about phylogenetic relatedness among species (when species are replicates for each study within a meta-analysis) in a meta-anlaysis in the metafor package? Alternatively, I wonder if the method f Lajeunesse 2009 American Naturalist has been adopted in R in any fashion? Thanks, Scott Chamberlain [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi I am looking for a package that 1. reads in a phylogenetic tree in NEXUS format 2. given two members/nodes on the tree, can return the distance between the two using the tree. I came across the following packages on CRAN ouch, ape, apTreeShape, phylgr all of which seem to provide extensive range of functions for reading in a Nexus-format tree and performing phylogenetic analyses, tree

Dear R-users, I apply to your kind attention to know if someone have used the Splus software koq.q (Kent & O'Quigley's measure of dependence for censored data) in R and kindly can help me. I have tried several times to contact the authors Andrej Blejec (andrej.blejec at uni-lj.si) or Janez Stare (janez.stare at mf.uni-lj.si) but unfortunately no one answered me. Following

Hi, Using Ape, I have constructed an object of class "phylo", using the method 'nj' (lets call the object 'tree_ja'). I also have a given subset of 'tree_ja' in a vector (lets call the vector 'subspecies'). What I want to do, is construct a nj tree - plot(tree_ja) - but have the species in vector 'subspecies' shown as red at the tips of the

Hi, I have reconstructed ancestral character states on a phylogeny using MuSSE in the diversitree package and plotted the character state probabilities as pie charts on the nodes. I would, however, like to colour the character states of my extant species, i.e. the tip labels, the same colours as my pie charts, such that all species in state 1 are e.g. blue, species in state 2 red and species in

Hi, I'm trying to build a mixed-effects model in which I'd like to include either a distance matrix or a phylogenetic tree as a random effect. The troubles I've had are that: 1. Function lmer() in package lme4 only accepts a data frame column as a random factor and not a distance matrix. 2. Function MCMCglmm() in package MCMCglmm only accepts a rooted and ultrametric phylogenetic

Dear all, I wanted to let you know about four phylogenetic comparative methods (PCM) packages that have become available on (3 on CRAN and 1 on GitHub) recently that hopefully will be interesting to somebody. Three of them go significantly beyond the Brownian motion (BM) and Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) processes. 1) There is a new version of mvSLOUCH available. The most important change is that the

Hola a todos...Auxilio, estoy varado en esto y creo que mi terquedad no me deja avanzar ... terquedad ya que estoy usando la estructura data.table y no logro obtener el resultado. Tengo una DT contiene un DATO y los resultados de la aplicación de una validación (ERR01, ERR2, ERR3) y la concatenación de estos errores en una sola columna. Si tiene error, graba el número del error, si no lo tiene,
