R-commands for MDS
Hello I am using the following command but not able to text the values on the graph can someone please make suggestions for improvement #here is the command loc_mds <- cmdscale(dist.r, k = 7, eig = TRUE) loc_mds$eig sum(abs(loc_mds$eig[1:2]))/sum(abs(loc_mds$eig)) sum((loc_mds$eig[1:2])^2)/sum((loc_mds$eig)^2) x <-loc_mds$points[,1] y <-loc_mds$points[,2] plot(x, y,

Cumulative sum of vector
Hi, Maybe I have not been looking in the right spot, but, I have not been able to fine a command to automatically calculate the running cumulative sum of a vector. Is there such a command? Example of current code: > eig$values [1] 678.365651 6.769697 2.853783 > prop<-eig$values/sum(eig$values) > prop [1] 0.986012163 0.009839832 0.004148005 >

superimpose histogram on biplot
Hi all, I've been trying to figure out how to superimpose a histogram on a biplot that shows the relative contribution of each axis. I have been using the NIPALS function (http://biomserv.univ-lyon1.fr/~dray/ files/softwares/nipals.R) to run principal component analyses. Here is a toy example. source("http://biomserv.univ-lyon1.fr/~dray/files/softwares/nipals.R")

Extracting data from Eigen function
Hi I need to extract the data returned by Eigen to plot the eigenvectors. However, when I try and eigv = eigen(covariance); it returns an object with the matrices containing eigenvalues and vectors.. how can I extract the eigenvector matrix from this?? When I try mat = eig["vectors"] it returns a matrix with the "$vectors" string on top , how can I remove this? code: > eig

Matrix eigenvectors in R and MatLab
Dear R-listers Is there anyone who knows why I get different eigenvectors when I run MatLab and R? I run both programs in Windows Me. Can I make R to produce the same vectors as MatLab? #R Matrix PA9900<-c(11/24 ,10/53 ,0/1 ,0/1 ,29/43 ,1/24 ,27/53 ,0/1 ,0/1 ,13/43 ,14/24 ,178/53 ,146/244 ,17/23 ,15/43 ,2/24 ,4/53 ,0/1 ,2/23 ,2/43 ,4/24 ,58/53 ,26/244 ,0/1 ,5/43) #R-syntax

Solve an ordinary or generalized eigenvalue problem in R?
Folks: I'm trying to port some code from python over to R, and I'm running into a wall finding R code that can solve a generalized eigenvalue problem following this function model: http://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.linalg.eig.html Any ideas? I don't want to call python from within R for various reasons, I'd prefer a "native" R solution if one

Confused by SVD and Eigenvector Decomposition in PCA
Hey, All In principal component analysis (PCA), we want to know how many percentage the first principal component explain the total variances among the data. Assume the data matrix X is zero-meaned, and I used the following procedures: C = covriance(X) %% calculate the covariance matrix; [EVector,EValues]=eig(C) %% L = diag(EValues) %%L is a column vector with eigenvalues as the elements percent

cmdscale problem
Dear R developers, there appears to be a small problem with function cmdscale: for non-Euclidean distance matrices, using option add=FALSE (the default), cmdscale misses the smallest eigenvalue. This affects GOF statistic g.1 (See Mardia, Kent + Bibby (1979): Multivariate Analysis, eq. (14.4.7). The corresponding formula in Cox + Cox (2001): Multidimensional Scaling, 2nd ed., p 38, would

eigenvalues of complex matrices
Dear all, I want to compute the eigenvalues of a complex matrix for some statistics. Comparing it to its matlab/octave sibling, I don't get the same eigenvalues in R computing it from the exact same matrix. In R, I used eigen() and arpack() that give different eigenvalues. In matlab/octave I used eig() and eigs() that give out the same eigenvalues but different to the R ones. For real

matrix bending
Dear All, I was wondering whether any one knows of a matrix bending function in R that can turn non-positive definite matrices into the nearest positive definite matrix. I was hoping there would be something akin to John Henshall's flbend program (http://agbu.une.edu.au/~kmeyer/pdmatrix.html), which allows the standard errors of the estimated matrix elements to be considered in the

R function that duplicates Octave's poly function?
By any chance is anyone aware of an R function that duplicates Octave's poly function? Here is a description of Octave's poly function: Function File: poly (A) If A is a square N-by-N matrix, `poly (A)' is the row vector of the coefficients of `det (z * eye (N) - a)', the characteristic polynomial of A. As an example we can use this to find the eigenvalues

Stress in multidimensional scaling
Hello, We are trying to find a function to compute "stress" in our multidimensional scaling analysis of a dissimilarity matrix. We've used "dist()" to create the matrix and "cmdscale()" for the scaling. In order to determine the number of dimensions we would like to plot stress vs. dimensions. However, we cannot find a pre-made command. It seems that other

prcomp( and cmdscale( not equivalent?
Hello, I have a dilemma that I'm hoping the R gurus will be able to help resolve. For background: My data is in the form of a (dis)similarity matrix created from taking the inverse of normalized reaction times. That is, each cell of the matrix represents how long it took to distinguish two stimuli from one another-- a square matrix of 45X45 where the diagonal values are all zero (since this

dudi.pca behaviour and discrimin

First, after running the code that is written bellow, I realized that the printout of dudi.pca gives me for both of my matrices $cw length that are unequal to either respective $rank or $eig lengths.
