I was at a lecture the other day and I saw a presentation of very neat (short) animation modeling epidemic disease spread over a map region. When I ask what software they used they mentioned SAS. Do you know if there are equivalent resources in R to model the spread of disease with animation output? My search in R-help and google didn't lead to any document (though I found a couple of

What software exists for digitizing video to quantify the motion of specific features in the image? I might be willing to use something that's NOT in R, though I'd prefer something in R (or at least with an R intereface). Thanks, Spencer Graves

Hello, I need to do some basic statistics on raster images (tiff or png). I need only an advice where to start, which package is the most appropriate. My search attempts were without success, yet. Many thanks Tomas

Hi - I would like to have the same functionality like what R(D)COM server offers but from Java world. I have java code (on windows) and need to call some R code to run some computational job and get the result back into java code. I'm wondering if there's any direct package that offers this functionality? Thank you. - adschai

Hi, Maybe this is more a programming questions than a specific R-project question, but maybe there is someone who can point me in the right direction. I have a picture of cirkels which I took with a digital camera. Now I want to use the diameter of the cirkels on the picture for analysis in R. I can use pixmap to import the picture, but how do I find the outside cirkels and calculate the

Hi R users: I am using RODBC to create some new ".xls" files each with several sheets (about 100) with sqlSave() from a data.frame inside R without any problem, but on windows XP platform. I would like to know if it is posible to make a similar solution on linux with openoffice? RODBC work only (for the moment) with ".xls" on windows, via the ODBC driver. Is it posible to

Hi all, Has anyone upgraded OpenOffice.org 3.1.1 on Centos 5.3? Everything seemed fine but I have found 1 problem on Calc. The autofill does not work. Example, when I type "Jan" in cell A5 and drag the handle to cell D5, the Fill Settings dialog box pops up instead of the Feb, Mar, Apr filling in the cell automatically. When OpenOffice.org 3.1.1 from Sun is installed, it works.

I have been very satisfied with R-Excel interface (DCOM). Few months ago I have changed my OS to Linux-Mandrake, and now I am using OpenOffice.org Calc as spreadsheet. I would like to know does exist some R-OpenOffice.org interface or how is possible to use R-functions in OpenOffice.org Calc? Thanks a lot!

Hi, I'm new to R and would like to know, how one can populate the list with array data. I'm reading a tab separated table in R. The data in the table looks something like this. #Table Data Comp    A    B    C Extracellular    103    268    535759 Nucleus    45603    47783    442744 #R code myData <- read.table("table.data",                 header=T,                

Under Windows, I have used RODBC to connect to Excel spreadsheets as per the example below: library(RODBC); connect = odbcConnectExcel("testdata.xls"); query = "SELECT [data$.ethn], [data$.sex], [data$.age], [data$.height], [data$.weight], [label$.label] FROM [data$], [label$] WHERE [data$.ethn] = [label$.ethn];" data =

I am attempting to create a simple line chart graphing three columns from a soffice-calc spreadsheet. I expect it to take the leftmost column as the X-Axis, plotting the others on the Y-Axis, but it always creates an X-Axis of the row number in the columns, and the first column amongst the data. I have tried this on OpenOffice.org 3.2.0, NeoOffice(R) 3.0.2 Patch 2, iWork Pages, and Excel 12.2.4

Hi, Until now I've been a happy user of CentOS. Everything just works(tm), and I don't care if application versions are slightly outdated. Next week I have to give a series of classes for a company that recently made the switch to Linux. On schedule is a one-week course for Writer and Calc. And right now I discover that one crucial function of Calc, "fill series",

When one has raw data it is easy to create a table of one variable against another and then calculate proportions For example a.nice.table<-table(a,b) prop.table(a.nice.table,1) However, I looked at several papers and created a data frame of the aggregate data. That means I acually created a table except it is a data frame. The first column lists the name of the first author and the year. I

I have a bunch of tables in a Microsoft Access database. An updated database is sent to me every week containing a new table. I know that is inefficient and weird but welcome to my life. I want to read the tables whose names are something such as "040207" but not the ones that have alphanumeric names such as "everyone". Using RODBC I am easily able to create a character vector

I would really appreciate it if anyone could determine what is going on with the following command. It is only half-working and is losing lots of data. For the life of me I cannot even see the pattern of what it is losing and what it is not. I am attaching the R data set which you can use with the Load Workspace menu function.

I read a table from Microsoft Access using RODBC. Some of the variables had a name with a space in it. R has no problem with it but I do. I cannot find out how to specify the space names(alltime) [1] "ID" "LVL7" "Ref Pv No" "Ref Pv Name" "DOS" "Pt Last Name" "Pt First Name" "MRN"

I saw a thread from September 24 in which Duncan Temple Lang told us: - The package currently has no Rd files, but there is a brief "user's guide". The package is available from http://www.omegahat.org/RGoogleDocs I could not find it by using Tinn-R or RGui's package install tool. Then when I went to the website I saw that package is only available as

How does one convert to a date format when survey respondents have used two different date formats whilst entering their data. There were clearly told to use mm/dd/yyyy but humans being humans some entered mm/dd/yy. There was even validity checks on the forms but I allowed them to be overridden since the data is more holy than the format. The data was downloaded as a csv and read.csv was used to

I suspect the problem stems from the fact that there are a couple of NA values. > sunflowerplot(lastoto,maxear) Error in rep.int(i.multi, number[number > 1]) : invalid number of copies in rep.int() So I used the subset command to get rid of the cases with NA hell<-subset(ChinOtoMayB,is.na(lastoto)==FALSE) Then it worked perfectly sunflowerplot(hell$lastoto,hell$maxear) Is
