similar to: calculation for standard normal cumulative distribution

Hi, I am thinking about IWLS vs ML estimation. When I use glm() for a 2-parameter distribution (e.g., Weibull), I can otain the MLE of scale parameter given shape parameter through IWLS. Because this scale parameter usually converges to the MLE. In this point, I am wondering: i) can you say that the direct MLE, which is obtained by maximizing a likelihood function, is equalvant to the indirect

Data has the first row for variable name and the first column for sample name. I want to take "Log" for all data, but how to compute without the first column for sample name. That is, column 1: sample ID column 2-10: data I want to find an average on each column (2-10) > apply(raw_data,2,mean) Error in Math.data.frame(list(sample_id = c(1L, 2L, 3L, 4L, 5L, 6L, 7L, :

Hi there, The data is data<-c(2,6,13,26,19,25,18,11,22,25) I want to count data for these rages: [0~10]: [11~20]: [21-30]: Is anyone can help me?

hi y'all, I am wondering if there is any special command, function, package, etc to help me doing a cumulative distribution function, with y-scale - probability scale. I tried the help in R and i got the following answers: cumsum(base) Cumulative Sums, Products, and Extremes ecdf(stepfun) Empirical Cumulative Distribution Function cpgram(ts) Plot

Hi, I have just started using R. Now I have the following problem: I want to create an Empirical Cumulative Distribution Function and I only came so far: F10 <- ecdf(x) plot(F10, verticals= TRUE, do.p = TRUE, lwd=3) x=c(1.6,1.8,2.4,2.7,2.9,3.3,3.4,3.4,4,5.2) Now I'd like to use arguments such as xlabs and main but I don't know how to integrate them. I hope someone can help me, I am

hi all: ecdf() is the empirical cumulative distribution function, but I need the INVERSE cumulative distribution. how can I calculate it? thank you in advance /salva

Dear Sir or Madam: Dose anyone know the R function which corresponds to "fcdf", a "F cumulative distribution function" of Matlab? http://esra.univ-paris1.fr/matlab5/toolbox/stats/fcdf.html Please guide me how to get this function if it is available. ..... or code it ab initio if no function in R language Thanks for kind reply further.

Hello, I have a problem regarding calculation of Cumulative Incidence Function. The event of interest is failure of bone-marrow transplantation, which may occur due to relapse or death in remission. The data set that I have consists of- lifetime variable, two indicator variables-one for relapse and one for death in remission, and the other variables are donor type (having 3 categories), disease

Dear list, I would like to plot the empirical cumulative distribution of the time needed by a treatment to attain a certain goal. A number of experiments is run with a strict time limit. In some experiments the goal is attained before the time limit, in other experiments time expires before the goal is attained. The situation is very similar to survivial analysis with censored data. I tryed

Hello. I have yet to receive a response to my previous post, so I may have done a poor job asking the question. So, here is the general question: how can I run a run a multivariate (more than one non-independent, response variables) ordered probit regression model? I've had success doing this in the univariate case using the vglm() function in the VGAM package. For example:

Dear all, I'm trying to estimate the parameters of a lognormal distribution fitted from some data. The tricky thing is that my data represent the time at which I recorded certain events. However, in many cases I don't really know when the event happened. I' only know the time at which I recorded it as already happened. Therefore I want to fit the lognormal from the cumulative

Dear all, What is the cumulative distribution (with parameterization) used within survreg with respect to the log-logistic distribution? That is, how are the parameters linked to the survivor function? Best regards, Mario [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, all ecdf function (Empirical Cumulative Distribution Function) in "stats" package counts from smaller values to larger values. However, I want to draw it by counting from larger value to smaller values and I couldn't find options for this purpose. How can I draw ecdf or ecdf like graph by counting from larger values to smaller values. Thank you in advance. Hyunchul Kim

Hi. I have a vector of quantiles and a vector of probabilites that, when plotted, look very like the gamma cumulative distribution function. I can guess some shape and scale parameters that give a similar result, but I'd rather let the parameters be estimated. Is there a direct way to do this in R? Thanks, Tim. week <- c(0,5,6,7,9,11,14,19,39) fraction <-

Hello I'm trying to do the following vector operation: given vector x = c(x1,x2,x3,x4...xn), produce vector y = c(x1,x1+x2,x1+x2+x3,...x1+...+xn). E.g., from x = c(1,3,2,2,5), produce y = c(1,4,6,8,13). The underlying problem is finding the cumulative distribution function given the empirical density distribution function. I have done some research on this but the only relevant

Hello everyone, With th bar histogram (number of occurrences) hist<-c(24,7,4,1,2,1,1) of seven equally spaces classes ]1-4], ]5-8], ]9-12], ]13-16], ]17-20], ]21-24], ]25-28], I obtained shape=0.8276 and rate=0.1448. I would like to know how to build the continuous pdf of a this gamma distribution knowing these two estimated parameters such that I will be able to predict the pdf of any
