I am new to using R and would appreciate some advice on which books to start with to get up to speed on using R. My Background: 1-C# programmer. 2-Programmed directly using IMSL (Now Visual Numerics). 3- Used in past SPSS and Statistica. I put together a list but would like to pick the "best of" and avoid redundancy. Any suggestions on these books would be helpful (i.e. too much

Can anyone please tell whether there is any R function to act as "VEC" and "VECH" operator on Matrix? Yes of course, I can write a user-defined-function for that or else, I can put dim(mat) <- NULL. However I am looking for some R function. Your help will be highly appreciated. Regards, -- View this message in context:

I need to write a C# program to create and display Cusum chart from any of the packages, spc, qcc or strucchange. Issues: 1-The data resides in a MS SQL Database.

Assistance needed on: 1-How can I call the cusum capabilities of any of the above packages and pass the data to the cusum function and plot? 2-How

Hi folks, Both plotrix and prettyR have been updated. plotrix now has the "Matlab" style dotplot that was requested not long ago on the list, provided by that intrepid duo, Barry Rowlingson and Rolf Turner. Mike Cheetham has contributed an implementation of the Piper diagram, also in response to a request. prettyR has finally learned how to display SPSS value labels in the xtab and

I am trying to make a loglikelihood function using copulas. I am trying to use mvdc to find the density function. When I run this I got the error that the pdf and cdf of my function tobit doesn't exist. Can somebody guide me where my mistake is? dtobit <- function(beta,sigma, x, y) {ifelse(y>0, dnorm(y,x%*%beta, sigma),(1-pnorm((x%*%beta)/sigma)))} ptobit <- function(beta,sigma, x,

hi, first I want to say that I'm new here, and new with copula and R. That is the reason why I'm writing, if somebody can help me. I have to make an example of Copula. On internet I've found this forum and that copula can calculate with R. Can somebody help me with the thing how can I start and where can read about these stuffs. Thank to all who can help! -- View this message

Dear fellow R Users: I am doing a Cholesky decomposition on a correlation matrix and get error message the matrix is not semi-definite. Does anyone know: 1- a work around to this issue? 2- Is there any approach to try and figure out what vector might be co-linear with another in thr Matrix? 3- any way to perturb the data to work around this? Thanks for any suggestions.

I am trying to learn how to format Ascii data files for scan or read into R. Precisely for a quickie project, I found some code (at end of this email) to do exactly what I need: To cluster and graph a dendrogram from package (stats). I am stuck on how to format a text file to run the script. I looked at the dataset USArrests (which would be replaced by my data and labels) using UltraEdit. That

I know, this is a forum about R. But I am so desperate of this problem (BTW, anyone knows any good Statistics/Math forum to post question like this?): A and B are both n x n positive definite matrix. Denote A > B, if A - B is positive definite. I know this is true: if A > B, then A^{-1} < B^{-1}. But how to prove this? I tried to diagonalize A and B, but since they can have different

Hello Anyone that now of any function in R that can calculate copulas? Or if anyone have any code avaible I would be more than interested.

Hi all, Has anyone used the qua.regressCOP2 function from the copBasic package??? The default copula function used in this function is plackett copula and I wanted to use archimedean copula. Attached below is my code: mycop<-frankCopula V=seq(0.001,0.99,by=0.000217) R<-qua.regressCOP2(0.25,V,cop=mycop,para=c(3.504)) And this is the error I get: Warning messages: 1: In

Hi, Is anybody using Copula package for fitting copulas to own data? I have two marginals Log Normal with (parameters 1.17 and 0.76) and Gamma ( 2.7 and 1.05) Which package I should use to fit Gumbel and Clayton Copulas? Thanks, fayyad [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello, I want to add text annotation about correlation on "pairs" plots. I found that I could pass a function to the "panel" argument of pairs : panel.annot <- function(x, y, ...) { points(x, y, ...) c <- cor.test(x, y) legend("topleft", legend=substitute(rho == r, list(r=sprintf("%.2f", c$estimate))), bty="n") } And then :

This might not be the correct forum for this question for there might be some flaws in my logic so the R function I'm looking for might not be the correct, but I know there?s a lot of smart people in this forum so please correct me if I'm wrong.

Dears, I am writing sice having question about your R package "copula". I am using this package to fit my data with some of the 22 copulas mentioned in Nelsen 1999. However, when trying random number generator I have got some difficulties. For example when I have familie number A13 where cupola is equal to C(u,v) = exp(1-((1-log(u))^theta+(1-log(v))^theta-1)^(1/theta)) devuv =
