Dear list members, Could anyone tell me if there is an equivalent of the Matlab declaration 'persistant' in R? Thank you very much, Bernard Gregorry. (Matlaber converted to R). --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello, I'm trying to switch from Matlab to R-project, and having some difficulties. I make a use of multidimensional matrices. For example, I need to extract mean from one of the dimensions: % we have matrix data of size: 130 x 11 x 350 x 2 data = data - repmat(mean(data,3),[130 1 1 1]); In R project I managed to do that in a very pervarsive way: # mean(data,3) in R base <-

I'm slowly moving my statistical analysis from Matlab to R, and find myself missing two features: a) How do I mimic Matlab's 'hold on'? (I want to show several plots together, when I type two plots one after the other the second overwrites the first) b) How do I mimic Matlab's 'axis'? (after drawing my plots I want to zoom on specific parts- for example, x=0:5,

I submit the following matrix to both MATLAB and R x= 0.133 0.254 -0.214 0.116 0.254 0.623 -0.674 0.139 -0.214 -0.674 0.910 0.011 0.116 0.139 0.011 0.180 MATLAB's inv(x) provides the following 137.21 -50.68 -4.70 -46.42 -120.71 27.28 -8.94 62.19 -58.15 6.93 -7.89 36.94 8.35 11.17 10.42 -14.82 R's solve(x) provides: 261.94 116.22 150.92 -267.78 116.22 344.30 286.68

Hi, I'm having trouble converting code from MATLAB to R; I want to find the equivalence to MATLAB's function 'fsolve'. I've tried 'nlm', on the squared argument, in R but i did not get the same results. Thankful if helped.

I have to admit I don't fully understand how MatLab's step() function works, but I'm learning that part. Can someone point me to equivalent&related functions in R? thanks Carl

Is there any way to read these files (standard .mat files, created by matlab version 7 onwards are compressed)? I know that R.matlab doesn't read them (it even says in the file MatlabServer.m "Matlab v7 saves compressed files, which is not recognized by R.matlab's readMat()" (lines 47-8)). I know I should be able to make R call Matlab and transfer data (not that I managed to

Dear R users, I need to to the the following. Let a= 1 2 3 4 5 6 and b= -1 -2 -3 be (2x3) matrices. -4 -5 -6 I need to combine the two matrices into a new (2x6) matrix like this: ab = ( 1 -1 2 -2 3 -3 ) 4 -4 5 -5 6 -6 How can this be done in R? ----------------------------------------------------------------- ?????? ???

Hi all, I'm trying to learn R after years of Matlab's experience. Here is an issue I couldn't solve today. Consider the following piece of code (written by memory): for(i in 1:n){ submat <- data[1:i,] C <- colSums(submat) } The problem is that at the first iteration, data[1:1,] reduces to a vector and colSums returns an error. This sounds really strange to me

Hi, I'm having a problem converting a Matlab program into R. The R code works almost all the time, but about 4% of the time R's optim function gets stuck on a local minimum whereas matlab's fminsearch function does not (or at least fminsearch finds a better minimum than optim). My understanding is that both functions default to Nelder-Mead optimization, but what's different about

Hi all, I have been searching all sorts of documentation, reference cards, cheat sheets but can't find why R's crossprod(A, B) which is identical to A%*%B does not produce the same as Matlabs cross(A, B) Supposedly both calculate the cross product, and say so, or where do I go wrong? R is only doing sums in the crossprod however, as indicated by (z <- crossprod(1:4)) # = sum(1 +

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew of an implementation of a function similar to "eigs" in Matlab (full description here: http://www.mathworks.com/access/helpdesk/help/techdoc/ref/eigs.html). This function differs from the standard "eigen" in that it computes a *few* eigenvectors for cases in which your matrix is very large and/or you don't need all the eigenvectors.

Dear all, I have several files with Matlab code, which I am translating to R. For the zero-level approach, I took the very old shell script from R-help archives, which has made some obvious leg-work such as replacement of "=" with "<-". Now I am translating indexing, matrix operations and function call using this table http://37mm.no/mpy/octave-r.html The problem is, I

Hello I am new to R and I need to convert some dates (numeric format by matlab) to actual dates in R. For instance, Matlab -> 730456 -> >> datestr(730456) ans = 02-Dec-1999 R - > library(zoo) > as.Date(730456) [1] "3969-12-03" I don't not mind the output format but it needs to be right. Many thanks Ed

Hi there, I have a binary matrix (dim 100x100) filled with values 0 and 1. I need select a record "n" positions of that matrix when values are 1. How can I do that? Thanks for all, Miltinho Brazil --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi! I'm translating some code from Matlab to R and I found a problem. I need to translate Matlab's function 'lsqnonlin' (http://www-ccs.ucsd.edu/matlab/toolbox/optim/lsqnonlin.html) into R, and at the beginning I thought it would be the same as R's 'optim'. But then I looked at the definition of 'lsqnonlin' and I don't quite see how to make

Hi, I'm attending summer School at UCLA (IPAM) on "probabilistics models of cognition". I have been an R-user since v. 1.4.1, but was trained in the frequentist tradition (as most psychologists!). I found that all faculty here use matlab and Murphy's bayes net toolbox. I have not had the need to use matlab before, and would love to stick to R for graphics models and

Dear All, Currently, I am translating Matlab code to R. I met difficulties to translate such Matlab codes into R: fprintf(fid,(' SPLITTING RESULTS ')); fprintf(fid,(' \n')); fprintf(fid,' Data base to analyze is a matrix %4i x %2i ',[n m]); fprintf(fid,' \n'); fprintf(fid,' h is %2i',h); fprintf(fid,' \n'); fprintf(fid,' group=0

Hello, How to decode speex encoded audio in Matlab if Google doesn't find a library in Matlab that does that? Do you know one? Can anyone tell me if Matlab can use a Speex implementation in another language? Maybe binaries? Thanks Jader Dias -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi I have a time series of measurements: every 10 min. a value was logged. The data look like: 20100914 08:01 3.74 20100914 08:11 3.74 20100914 08:21 3.71 20100914 08:31 4.39 20100914 08:41 3.74 This data spans several months. I would like to group the data per day. In Matlab it is fairly easy to obtain a cell array, of which the first column contains the date of each
