Dear All, It's Eszter again from Hungary. I could not solve my problem form yesterday, so I still have to ask your help. I have a binary dataset of vegetation samples and species as a comma separated file. I would like to calculate the Jaccard distance of the dataset. I have the following error message: Error in rowSums(x, prod(dn), p, na.rm) : 'x' must be numeric In addition:

Hello, Is there a way to set the html element id for the form_tag and form_remote_tag on the server side? I want to have this resultant html... <form id=''something'' ... ... </form> Thank you, Brian Takita

Hi, I am working with a species-by-trait .csv file (columns=traits, rows=species) and get the following warning message when trying to plot results of both metaMDS and pcoa:  "Warning message: In ordiplot(x, choices = choices, type = type, display = display,  :   Species scores not available" I am using a Gower's transformation in both procedures within the metaMDS or pcoa

Hi all, I''m trying to use file_column to upload a picture but I''m getting the following error: "cannot convert nil into String" caused by the last line in FileColumnHelper::url_for_file_column(object_name, method) url << object.send("#{method}_relative_path") I don''t have any images uploaded for existing entries so does this not

Dear all, I was looking for methods in R that allow assessing the number of significant principal coordinates. Unfortunatly I was not very successful. I expanded my search to the web and Current Contents, however, the information I found is very limited. Therefore, I tried to write code for doing a randomization. I would highly appriciate if somebody could comment on the following approach.

I think it is an easy question but i haven´t found a solution since I am r beginner. I did this plot3d(PCoA, type="p", col=rainbow(1000),size=5) text3d(PCoA, text=Nam) How can I save it including the labels to a jpg-file? Thanks in advance.

Hello R user and helper! I would like to get a 3d plot with coloured points. I did that: colors<-c(rep("2",7), rep("3",12), rep("4", 24), rep("5", 13), rep ("6", 8), rep("7", 51), rep("8", 1), rep("9", 15), rep("10", 53), rep ("11",3), rep("12",3), rep("13", 8),

Hi, I need to run a PCoA (PCO) for a data set wich has both positive and negative values for variables. I  could not find any distancecoefficient other than euclidean distace running for the data set. Are there any other coefficient works with negtive values.Also I cannot get summary out put (the eigen values) for PCO as for PCA.   Thanks. Dilshan [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear all, Does anyone know how to run Principal Coordinates Analysis (PCoA) from a squared euclidean dissimilarity matrix with R ?

Dear R-Helpers, I am working on a dataset containing ca. 500 specimens of 17 different species. The data is three text columns, followed by ca 70 columns of binary data. I'm trying to write a function that will allow me to interactively exclude species using the inofrmation in the third text column. My function, matrix.slicer, appears to work as I intend. However, when I pass the

Hello everyone, I mail you because of my lake of knowlegde regarding statistics. I'm using the CA and PCoA (but maybe should I use some other techniques) to determine the differences and similarities between a large sample of plants using different kind of traits through matrix of mixte variables. I understood that the daisy() function using the gower metric and defining the different type

Hi, I'd like to produce a marginless or zero margin plot so that the pixel coordinates represent the mathematics. xy<-data.frame(x=c(0,1,1,0,0),y=c(0,1,0,0,1)) png('junk.png',width=300,height=300) par(mar=c(0,0,0,0)) plot(xy$x,xy$y,xlim=c(0,1),ylim=c(,1)) dev.off() The resultant file has about a 10 pixel margin around these lines, and I'm not sure what parameter or function

Hi, I was wondering why anova() and drop1() give different tail probabilities for F tests. I guess overdispersion is calculated differently in the following example, but why? Thanks for any advice, Tom For example: > x<-c(2,3,4,5,6) > y<-c(0,1,0,0,1) > b1<-glm(y~x,binomial) > b2<-glm(y~1,binomial) > drop1(b1,test="F") Single term deletions Model: y ~

Dear all, I have a question about FD package. I?m trying to calculate functional diversity indices using insect data. My trait data includes dispersal ability (0, 0.5, 1), body size (continuous) and five feeding guilds coded as in percentages (for example; 0,0,0.5,0.5,0) since some of the species can have two different feeding guilds. However, the package only calculates when I run ?calc.Frich=

As of R 1.7.0, princomp no longer accept matrices with more coloumns than rows. I'm curious: Why was this decision made? I work a lot with data where more coloumns than rows is more of a rule than an exception (for instance spectroscopic data). To me, princomp have two advantages above prcomp: 1) It has a predict method, and 2) it has a biplot method. A biplot method shouldn't be too
