Hi, The following code, from Angelo Canty article on line "Resampling Methods in R: the boot Package, 2002", works fine for Angelo Canty using R 2.6.0 on Windows XP. It also works for me using R 1.2.1 and S-PLUS 2000 on Windows XP after installing the S-PLUS bootstrap library, with slight differences in my outputs. > library(boot) > library(survival)

Dear R Help list, My question is regarding extracting the standard error or Z-score from a cph or coxph call. My Cox model is: - modz=cph(Surv(TSURV,STATUS)~RAGE+DAGE+REG_WTIME_M+CLD_ISCH+POLY_VS, data=kidneyT,method="breslow", x=T, y=T) I've used names(modz) but can't see anything that will let me extract the Z scores for each coefficient or the standard errors in the same

Good day R help list!!! I've been trying to do Bootstrap in R on Censored data. I encountered WARNING/ERROR messages which I could not find explanation. I've been searching on the literature for two days now and still can't find answers. I hope there's anyone out there who can help me with these two questions: 1. If the "Loglik converged before variable..." message

Dear mailing list, I tried to run the example for the conditional bootstap written in the help file of censboot. I got the following result: STRATIFIED CONDITIONAL BOOTSTRAP FOR CENSORED DATA Call: censboot(data = aml, statistic = aml.fun, R = 499, F.surv = aml.s1, G.surv = aml.s2, strata = aml$group, sim = "cond") Bootstrap Statistics : original bias std. error t1*

Dear all, I run the example of "censboot" contained in "boot" package. But, I can't find the confidence interval of the resulted "censboot" object. Any idea ? > aml.fun <- function(data) { + surv <- survfit(Surv(time, cens)~group, data=data) + out <- NULL + st <- 1 + for (s in 1:length(surv$strata)) { +

All, We are researching approaches to parallel R with the end goal of running R in a distributed manner on a Linux cluster. We expect of course to do some work decomposing our problems to be task-parallel or data-parallel, but wouldn't mind getting an initial boost working with "embarrassingly parallel" code sections and one of the approaches below. Incidentally our environment

I don't know if there is some fault in compiling or a bug of the new R-1.7.0 version: cl.pam.2 <- pam(as.dist(1-cor(mel.data)),2) plot(cl.pam.2) perform a right partitioning and silhouette plot on the old R-1.6.2 instead "Error in clusplot.default(x$diss,...... ; x is not numeric" is the output on the new R-1.7.0. Same platform: RH8.0 i686. Some suggestions? A.S.

Hi, I've lost my mind on it... I have to scatterplot two vectors, grouped by a third variable, with two different dimensions according to whether each cell line in the plot is sensitive or resistant to a given drug, and with a different color for each of 9 tissues of origin. Here's what I've done:

Dear All, I would like to use R function 'selectFGR' of fine gray model in competing risks model. I used the 'Melanoma' data in 'riskRegression' package. Some of the variables are factor. I get solution for full model but not in variable selection model. Any advice how to use factor variable in 'selectFGR' function. The following R code is produced below

Hi, I'm new to R and have a question which seems like it should be easy. I loaded the R port of my boot library and installed it. All of the functions and help files are available but I can't seem to access the data. The data directory was created and contains files with the extension .rda. I tried to use the data() function but I get > data(city) Error: restore file corrupted -- no

Hi everybody, this is a real dummy thing. I sorted a matrix based on a given column, and what I get is right, until it comes to columns of negative and positive values; than, "order" orders everything from max to min in the negative values, and then AGAIN from max to min in the positive values!!! Why isn't everything order from max to min, and that's it? Thank you!!! Attached

I am having a problem using ESS with R. In particular I have large data objects which exceed the 6Mb default heap memory. Outside of ESS I can run R by specifying large values of --vsize and --nsize but I can't figure out how to do this in ESS. Any help would be much appreciated. -- **************************************************** ** Angelo J. Canty **

Dear Raja, A Fine and Gray model can be fitted using the standard coxph function with weights that correct for right censoring and left truncation. Hence I guess any function that allows to perform stepwise regression with coxph should work. See e.g. my article in Biometrics https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1541-0420.2010.01420.x, or the vignette "Multi-state models and competing risks" in the

Dear R-list, I am wondering how to perform a bootstrap in R for the weighted time dependent Cox model? (Andersen?Gill format, with multiple observations from each patients) to obtain the bootstrap standard error of the treatment effect. Below is an example dataset. Would 'censboot' be appropriate to use in this context? Any suggestions/references/direction to R-package will be highly

Dear Geskus, I want to develop a prediction model. I followed your paper and analysed thro' weighted coxph approach. I can develop nomogram based on the final model also. But I do not know how to do internal validation of the model and subsequently obtain calibration plot. Is it possible to use Wolbers et al Epid 2009 approach 9 (R code for internal validation and calibration) . It is

Dear R-list users, I am trying to do simulation of survival data to enable it to run under frailty option. Below is the function a that I am using. My questions are: 1. How do I modify it to get bigger (hopefully significant) value of Variance of random effect? 2. What changes do I have to make in the function to run it under correlated frailty model? (may be in kinship package) 3. Is there

Dear R users, I have a question concerning the nltm package. Before posting to the R list I first contacted the author of the package twice but no succes. May be I've got the wrong email! My question is about the object "surv" given in the package "nltm". As explained, the object "surv" represents the MLE estimates of the baseline survival function evaluated at
