similar to: orthographic projection of ellipsoids

We have recently digitized a set of points from some scanned engineering drawings (in the form of PDFs). The digitization resulted in x,y page coordinates for each point. The scans were not aligned perfectly so there is a small rotation, and furthermore each projection (e.g. the yz-plane) on the drawing has a different offset from the page origin to the projection origin. From the dimensions

I was working with the rmetrics portfolioBacktesting function and dug into the code to try to find why my formula with 113 items, i.e. A1 thru A113, was being truncated and I only get 85 items, not 113. Is it due to a string length limitation in R or is it a bug in the strsplit or gsub functions, or in my string? I'd very much appreciate any suggestions ============Input script:

Hi there, I would like to find a more efficient way of permuting the rows and columns of a symmetrical matrix that represents ecological or actual distances between objects in space. The permutation is of the type used in a Mantel test. Specifically, the permutation has to accomplish something like this: Original matrix addresses: a11 a12 a13 a21 a22 a23 a31 a32 a33 Example

Hello, This is not a problem with R, the calculated results are mathematically correct. This a matrix stability problem. Because of measuring errors, my matrix solution is a bit off. Here is what my equations look like: A11 x11+A12 x12 +A13 x13 = b1 A21 x21+A22 x21 +A23 x23 = b2 A31 x31+A32 x31 +A33 x33 = b3 A is a reading, X is a measured weight, and b is total. The 3 experiments give

Dear people from the R help list, I have a question that I can't get my head around to start answering, that is why I am writing to the list. I have data in a format like this (tabs might look weird): John A1 1 0 1 John A2 1 1 1 John A3 1 0 0 Mary A1 1 0 1 Mary A2 0 0 1 Mary A3 1 1 0 Peter A1 1

Dear list, I'm trying to visualise some ellipsoidal shapes in 3D. Their position, axes, and angular orientation can be arbitrary. I saw an ellipse3d function in rgl; however it is heavily oriented towards the statistical concept of ellipse of confidence, whilst I am just concerned with the geometrical object. Below is my current implementation. It is quite slow when creating many shapes, so

Dear Colleagues, I have a dataframe with variables: [1] "ID" "category" "a11" "a12" "a13" "a21" [7] "a22" "a23" "a31" "a32" "b11" "b12" [13] "b13" "b21"

Hi R User, I was trying to use R for WINBUGS using following model and data (example), but I am new with WINBUGS and don't know how we perform the analysis. I wonder whether I can run the following the example data and Winbugs Model in R. Your help will be highly appreciated. Sincerely, SN PANDIT === library(R2WinBUGS) #Model model{ #likelihood for(i in 1:N){ a1[i] ~ dnorm(a11[i],tau)

For a paper dealing with generalized ellipsoids, I want to illustrate in 3D an ellipsoid that is unbounded in one dimension, having the shape of an infinite cylinder along, say, z, but whose cross-section in (x,y) is an ellipse, say, given by the 2x2 matrix cov(x,y). I've looked at rgl:::cylinder3d, but don't see any way to make it accomplish this. Does anyone have any ideas? thx,

Dear all, suppose I have a vector with elements as: Vec <- c(2,3,4,5,6) Now I want to have all possible combination of length 3 using those elements and without any repetition. Like, I want to have 1 possibility like 2-3-4 but not 3-2-4. Can somebody guide me how to achieve that in R? Thanks for your help.

Hey, all I am going to plot several 3-dimensional ellipsoids in R. For example, A is such a ellipsoid with mean u=[1 1 1]', covariance matrix C=[1 0 .5;0 1 .6;.5 .6 1]; So how can I plot such object in 3D space? Is there some function to achieve this? Thanks. Fred

I have a 3xN matrix of parameters obtained from N regressions where the 3 parameters are jointly statistically significant. I would like to reproduce a 3D confidence ellipsoid projecting 2D ellipses onto the XY plane as in Figure 5.2 in this

Hello, in a three dimensional coordinate system, I'd like to find all my experimental data points that fall within an ellipsoid around a fixed coordinate. The fixed point is defined by (x.coord.point, y.coord.point, z.coord.point). The coordinates of the ellipsoid are given by the three vectors x,y,z. In a previous version of my code, I simply used a box instead of an ellipsoid to sort

+ Hello, The parametric equations of an ellipsoid can be written in terms of spherical coordinates. The three spherical coordinates are converted to Cartesian coordinates by X=a cos (α) sin(θ) Y=b sin(α) sin(θ) Z=c cos(θ) for α and θ The parameter α varies from 0 to 2 π and θ varies from 0 to π . Here ( X o , Y o ,Z o ) is the center of the ellipsoid, and θ is the angle

Hi all, Can anyone please guide me how to draw a Concentration ellipsoid for a bivariate system with a bivariate normal dist. having a VCV matrix : Sigma <- matrix(c(1,2,2,5), 2, 2) I would like to draw in using GGPLOT.

Dear all, Has anyone written functions to compute (and ideally project / plot onto a plane) confidence ellipsoids for q linear model parameters, q > 2 ?

Hello, I'm working with a series (30+) of hydrologic metrics and 10 vegetation communities and I need to determine which of the metrics provide the best separability for each of the vegetation communities. The hydrologic metrics are highly correlated, therefore the need to reduce the number of them considered is critically important. I've been looking at the scatter3d function in the
