Exactly! Thanks, Duncan. Let me re-phrase me question like this: 1) X_i values are independent Gammas, with the shape 0.067 and scale 0.008 2) Min(X)=1 and Max(X)=85 3) SUM(X)=2000 4) Do I also have to define the number of draws? if yes, it could be 250. Based on these restrictions, I want to generate random draw. I'm wondering how I can do this in R. Thanks. Garry On Tue, Nov 10, 2009

Hi, R users, I'm using while() in R to set a condition. My condition is: i<523 or i>535. How should I write this in R? I try "while (i<523 or i>535)" and it does not work. Thanks.

Hi, please use the following the matrix z as the example: x<-c(2,4,5,7,6,9,8,2,0) y<-matrix(x,3,3) z<-apply(y,2,function(x)x/sum(x)) z On Tue, Mar 23, 2010 at 6:59 PM, David Winsemius <dwinsemius@comcast.net>wrote: > > On Mar 23, 2010, at 9:05 PM, Hongwei Dong wrote: > > Hi, R-helpers, >> >> I'm trying to use R to do a Monte Carlo simulation and

Hi, R-helpers, I'm trying to use R to do a Monte Carlo simulation and need the help. What I have is a matrix that consists of the probabilities for the persons to choose zones. For example, in the matrix shown below, each column represents a person, and each row represents a zone. So, the probability that the first person will choose the 2nd zone is 30%. 25% 30% 10% 30% 20% 0% 20% 50% 60%

Dear R helpers Suppose I have a portfolio of securities with exposure to Equity, Bonds and Forex (say $ 1000000 each). Is there any fucntion in R that will help me calculate Value at Risk (VaR) using Monte carlo Simulation , Historic simulation and Variance - Covariance Simulation. With regards Maithili

Dear R user: I wonder if it is possible to run monte carlo simulation with dse2 package(MonteCarloSimulations function) using ordinary differential equation. How do I define the model? Or if there are any functions which can run monte carlo simulation using ordinary differential equation. Please give me some comments. Thanks in advance!!

I use fGarch package to estimate AR(1)-ARCH(1) process for a vector of returns. Then, using the estimated parameters I want to simulate 10 000 sample paths where each path has the same length as the vector of returns. So the first line of the code is: spec=garchSpec(model=list(ar= 0.440270860, omega=0.000374365,alpha=0.475446583 , mu=0, beta=0))---- The only way I can think of generating 10 000

Hello, R friends... I am very new to R, and I need some help. I am trying to construct a simulation for my dissertation. I need to create 1000 datasets of 1000 subjects with the following variables... Treatment variable - Drawn from a binomial distribution (1 run, prob=.13) Covariate 1 - Drawn from a normal distribution (mean=100, sd=16) Covariate 2 - Drawn from a normal distribution

Hi - I am doing some monte carlo simulations comparing bayesian (using Plummer's jags) and maximum likelihood (using lmer from package lme4 by Bates et al). I would like to know if there is a way I can flag nonconvergence and exceptions. Currently the simulations just stop and the output reads things like: Error in optim(.Call("lmer_coef", x, 2, PACKAGE = "Matrix"), fn,

Hi there, I am running Monte Carlo Simulations in R using ordinary "while (condition)" loops. Since the number of iterations is something like 100.000 and within each iteration a given subsample is extended sequentially it takes hours to run the simulation. Does anyone know if there is either a way to avoid using loops in Monte Carlo Simulations or how to include possible faster

Hello, I am trying to simulate binary outcome data for a logistic regression Monte Carlo study. I need to eventually be able to manipulate the structure of the error term to give groups of observations a random effect. Right now I am just doing a very basic set up to make sure I can recover the parameters properly. I am running into trouble with the code below. It works if you take out the object

Hello, I am doing simulations, and I generate a list at each iteration (with three component matrices in the example below), saving the results in a list. For example, after two iterations, I have something like > str(sim.theta) List of 2 $ :List of 3 ..$ : num [1:6, 1:4] -3.67 -1.07 -2.99 -18.38 -3.26 ... ..$ : num [1:6, 1:6] -7.56 -3.14 -4.99 1.03 2.79 ... ..$ : num [1:6, 1:4]

Hi, R users, I'm trying to transform a matrix A into B (see below). Anyone knows how to do it in R? Thanks. Matrix A (zone to zone travel time) zone z1 z2 z3 z1 0 2.9 4.3 z2 2.9 0 2.5 z3 4.3 2.5 0 B: from to time z1 z1 0 z1 z2 2.9 z1 z3 4.3 z2 z1 2.9 z2 z2 0 z2 z3 2.5 z3 z1 4.3 z3 z2 2.5 z3 z3 0 The real matrix I have is much larger, with more than 2000 zones. But I think it should

Dear Listers; Does anybody has experience in doing simulation via Qusi-Monte carlo in R or S-plus, if so, could you like to send a small copy of your program to me, I appreciate and thanks in advance!! Frankly speaking, I am struggling to write this kind of program, while I could not figure out, painful!!!!! Best regards, Tony --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML

Hello Dear, I am trying to generate samples by using Monte Carlo simulation. For example, 1000 samples, Exponential distribution (f(x), lambda=0.0005, 0<=x<=360) Is there any package for Monte Carlo or just use random sample generation function? Many thank you for your help in advance, Jin -- View this message in context:

Hi, This is an announcement for a package that has been up on CRAN since March 2006 but was never announced. The package is Mchtest - for Monte Carlo hypothesis tests allowing sequential stopping. The idea is to use the sequential probability ratio test boundaries to stop resampling for a Monte Carlo hypothesis test such as a bootstrap or permutation test. This means that you will take many

===== Summary ===== Version 0.1.0 provides the initial release of RcppSMC, an integration of the SMCTC template classes for Sequential Monte Carlo and Particle Filters (Johansen, 2009, J Statistical Software, 30:6) with the Rcpp package for R/C++ Integration (Eddelbuettel and Francois, 2011, J Statistical Software, 40:8). RcppSMC allows for easier and more direct access from R to the
