I need to extract the p value from a ANOVA done with lm model fitting <- lm(var ~ group) Sfitting <- summary(fitting) Sfitting[10][1] gives the F value and the degrees of freedom but I am not able to get the p value. The function df should give a p value given a F but I am not able to make it work. I found only something about aov in the R help and I am not able to make it work Massimo

I am writing some code to obtain publication-like plots (like the ones can be obtained with SigmaPlot). I am not able to find the dimensions of a point. Parameters like cex make you able to make it bigger or smaller but I need to know the exact dimension (in relative coordinates : if my plot is 640x480 a dot plotted with cex=1.5 will be...)

I am not able to compile R under ubuntu Edgy. ./configure error message is configure: error: --with-x=yes (default) and X11 headers/libs are not available I do not know which library is missing (I tried to install some X11 libs but were already on the system). Massimo Cressoni

I need to perform the Exact Wilcoxon Mann-Whitney on a subset of my database. Assuming that IPPO is my data frame and IPPOBIS is the subset my variable still have 3 different levels and the function wilcox_test (package "coin") does not accept it. I do not know how to overcome this problem. ippo <- c(rep("A",10),rep("B",10),rep("C",10)) ippo2 <-

Hi- I'm a biologist trying to figure out the growth rate of salamanders in different ponds. I collected individuals from various populations at different dates, and using the size and date collected, I want to figure out the growth curve of each population. My question is: How do I fit my data to a Gompertz function in R? Thank you so much! Sarah -- View this message in context:

Hi everyone, I'm trying to perform the following regressions in order to compare linear vs. sigmoidal fit of the relationship between my dependent variable (y) and one explaining parameter (x2), both including the confounding effects of a third variable (x1): quasi-pois-lin <- glm(y ~ x1 + x2, family = quasipoisson(link="identity"), data=fit) quasi-pois-sig <- gnm(y ~ x1 +

I know that this maybe a trivial question. I am not able to plot pedices in graph axes. Instead I am able to plot different math symbols : XLABEL <- expression(paste(cmH,lim(f(x), x %->% 0),"O PEEP")) works well XLABEL <- expression(paste(cmH,[2],"O PEEP")) is considered a wrong expression. Thanks

Hi list, I was wondering how I should go about fitting a sigmoid curve to a dataset. More specifically how I estimate parameters a and b in the following equation: 1 / 1+exp(-(x-a)*b) with b the steepness of the sigmoid curve and a the shift of the center of the sigmoid curve relative to the center of your dataframe. The fit is in function of x, the location within the input vector and y, an

I'm trying to plot an extrapolated logistic sigmoid curve using glm(..., family=binomial) as follows, but neither the fitted() points or the predict()ed curve are plotting correctly: > year <- c(2003+(6/12), 2004+(2/12), 2004+(10/12), 2005+(4/12)) > percent <- c(0.31, 0.43, 0.47, 0.50) > plot(year, percent, xlim=c(2003, 2007), ylim=c(0, 1)) > lm <- lm(percent ~ year)

Dear list, I'm trying to fit a chapman-richards equation to my data, only I cannot interpret the parameters a, b and d. I know that the parameter b denotes the asymptote, but for the others I couldn't figure out. But I do need to know this in order to set my starting values. Here's the model: modPoplar<- nls(Diameter ~ d*(1-exp(-b *Age))^a ,start=list(a=20,b=0.9,d=33)) I attached

Hi, is there any package (or source code snippet) that will evaluate the Frechet distance for curves represented as sets of points? Searching around only threw up references to a Frechet distribution.

Hi I am struggling to fit a non-linear trend using the likfit function in geoR. Specifically I want a sigmoidal function, something like SSfpl in the nls package to fit the trend. But it seems trend.spatial in geoR only works with lm or glm type models. Any ideas how I can specify the model to calculate the kriging parameters using REML, including the parameters of a sigmoidal trend function

Hello, I am wondering if someone can help me. I have the following function that I derived using nls() SSlogis. I would like to find its derivative. I thought I had done this using deriv(), but for some reason this isn't working out for me. Here is the function: asym <- 84.951 xmid <- 66.90742 scal <- -6.3 x.seq <- seq(1, 153,, 153) nls.fn <- asym/((1+exp((xmid-x.seq)/scal)))

deriv seems to have problems with a minus-sign before a bracket. Below are four examples of the same function, the top one is wrong, all others are correct (hopefully).

Hi, I would like to be able to access the calculated results from the nls package. Using the example in R, fm3DNase1 we can reurn certain parts of the calculations: > coef(fm3DNase1) Asym xmid scal 2.345179 1.483089 1.041454 > resid(fm3DNase1) [1] -0.0136806237 -0.0126806237 0.0089488569 0.0119488569 -0.0025803222 [6] 0.0064196778 0.0026723396 -0.0003276604

Hi folks, I am tearing my hair out on this one. I am using an example from Pinheiro and Bates. ### this works data(Orange) mod.lis <- nlsList(circumference ~ SSlogis(age, Asymp, xmid, scal), data=Orange ) ### This works mod <- nlme(circumference ~ SSlogis(age, Asymp, xmid, scal), data=Orange, fixed = Asymp + xmid + scal ~ 1, start =

Hi R help, I am trying to determine how nls() generates a function based on the self-starting SSlogis and what the formula for the function would be. I've scoured the help site, and other literature to try and figure this out but I still am unsure if I am correct in what I am coming up with. ************************************************************************** dat <-

Dear R-Users, I am comparing the nlme package in S-Plus (v. 7.0) and R (v. 2.2.1, nlme package version 3.1-68.1; the lattice, Matrix, and lme4 have also just been updated today, Jan. 23, 2006) on a PC (2.40 GHz Pentium 4 processor and 1 GHz RAM) operating on Windows XP.
