Hi there, I use the surf.gls() function to fit a variable measured over a surface. When I plot the predicted surface, there are local minima/maxima in almost every coordinate where data were measured, which seems aberrant. For instance: ?? x <- c(343,293,343,243,293,343,443,543,593,243,293,343,393,443,493,543,593,143,193,243,293,343,393,443,

I have data in the form of (x,y) pairs and would like to find local minima and maxima (typically the zeros of the 2nd derivative) of the y values. I looked at numericDeriv, but I don't have an "expression" per se. I looked at optim, also, but it looks like it will find only one "global" max or min. I can code up my own piecewise derivatives, but wondered if there is

Good morning once more. My problem of yesterday has been addressed. Having learned a few tricks from that, I wish to ask another question in connection with that. My data is a cosmic ray data consisting of dates and counts. When I plot a graph of counts versus dates, the resultant signal shows a number of maximum and minimum points. These minimum points (turning points) are of interest to me.

Does anyone know how to do hermite or Bezier splines in R? I can find Matlab routines, but really need to implement them in R. Failing that I'd be interested in other conformal splines. I need to smooth and interpolate animal tracking data. Antarctic Wildlife Research Unit School of Zoology University of Tasmania PO Box 252-05 Hobart TAS, 7001 Australia Phone: (0)3 6226 2645 Fax:

Hi r-helpers. Please forgive my ignorance, but I would like to plot a smoothing spline (smooth.spline) from package "stats", and show the knots in the plot, and I can't seem to figure out where smooth.spline has located the knots (when I use nknots). Unfortunately, I don't know a lot about splines, but I know that they provide me an easy way to estimate the location of local

The documentation says, "pmax and pmin take several vectors as arguments and return a single vector giving the parallel maxima (or minima) of the vectors." I discovered that, if you use a matrix or array instead of a vector, pmax returns a matrix or array, respectively. This makes pmax and pmin much more useful, and should not be left to people to discover on their own! For example:

I have water chemistry data with censored values (i.e., those less than reporting levels) in a data frame with a narrow (i.e., database table) format. The structure is: $ site : Factor w/ 64 levels "D-1","D-2","D-3",..: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ... $ sampdate: Date, format: "2007-12-12" "2007-12-12" ... $ preeq0 : logi TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE

Hi, I wonder whether similarly to the very quick rowSums and colSums functions in the base package, one could add quick functions that calculate the min or max over rows / cols in a matrix. While apply(x,1,min) works, I found out by profiling a program of mine that it is rather slow for matrices with a very large number of rows. A quick functionality seems to be already there in the

Hi, I use a mboost model to predict my dependent variable on new data. I get the following warning message: In bs(mf[[i]], knots = args$knots[[i]]$knots, degree = args$degree, : some 'x' values beyond boundary knots may cause ill-conditioned bases The new predicted values are partly negative although the variable in the training data ranges from 3 to 8 on a numeric scale. In order to

Dear R-helpers ? I have 7 data points that I want to fit a continuous curve to, that should look similar to a sine wave My data points would mark the local minima and maxima respectively. This is what I?ve got so far. And I would keep doing so, but sadly nls() then says that it has reached the maximum number of Iterations? ?

I'm trying to use R to determine the quality of a cubic Bezier curve approximation of an elliptical arc. I know the four control points and I want to compute (x,y) coordinates of many points on the curve. I can't find anything in either the base distribution or CRAN that does this; all the spline-related packages seem to be about *fitting* piecewise Bezier curves to a data set.

Is there any R package that can help me with digging out the maxima of a 1-D trajectory ? I have 975 1-D curves. They are only known as time series. That is a set of points ordered with respect to time. Some curves exhibit one only peak. Others have two peaks of different height. We wish to find the number of peaks and their position along the time axis. Apparently it's a trivial problem

I am using numerical optimization to fit a 1 parameter model, in which the input parameter is bounded. I am currently using optimize(), however, the problem turns out to have local minima, and optimize does not always seem to find the global minimum. I could to write a wrapping function that tries multiple intervals or starting values, but I would prefer a package that has built-in methods to make

Dear all, I wonder which R algorithm could perform a search of local maxima in an spatial grid, in other words, having the coordinates of a map (x,y,z... up to 6 coordinates) and then the altitude/height at each point (h) (in total 7 numerical variables) I would like to localise the peaks (local maxima) of that topological surface. Which R algorithm can perform this? Thanks a lot, Josep Maria,

Hi, Recently, I started taking a look at wobbly's source (I was interested in it's physics... ;-)) I noticed that GRID_WIDTH and GRID_HEIGHT were defined to be 4, and I wanted to see how the physics look like with grid sizes that aren't 4x4. I changed the defines to my new grid size, but unfortunately it didn't work. I investigated this "bug" (it's not exactly a bug
