Hi, I hope somebody can help me on how to use the hypergeometric function. I did read through the R documentation on hypergeometric but not really sure what it means. I would like to evaluate the hypergeometric function as follows: F((2*alpha+1)/2, (2*alpha+2)/2 , alpha+1/2, betasq/etasq). I'm not sure which function should be used- either phyper or qhyper or dhyper Where

Dear R-xperts I have just written a little hypergeometric function, included below [the hypergeometric function crops up when solving a common type of ODE]. It works fine on single values of the primary argument z, but vectorizing it is getting confusing. The best I have come up with so far just tests for z being longer than 1 and if so, uses sapply() recursively. This is fine, except that it

Dear R Users, There exists a non-central hypergeometric distribution function in the (MCMCpack) package, and a hypergeometric distribution function in the (stats) package. Is there a function for sampling from an extended hypergeometric distribution? Thanks, Narcyz This message is intended for the addressee named and may con...{{dropped}}

Hello, I'm looking for a package in R that performs, analysis of correlation matrices: cross-classified by 2 factors.

Is there any way to know how the "dmvt" function computes the hypergeometric function needed in the calculation for the density of multivariate t distribution? -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/hypergeometric-function-in-mvtnorm-tp4483730p4483730.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Dear R Users, I employed the phyper() function to estimate the likelihood that the number of genes overlapping between 2 different lists of genes is due to chance. This appears to work appropriately. Now i want to try this with 3 lists of genes which phyper() does not appear to support. Some googling suggests i can utilize the Multivariate hypergeometric distribution to achieve this. eg.:

I have been reading, in various sources, that a poisson distribution is related to binomial, extending the idea to include numbers of events in a given period of time. In my case, the hypergeometric distribution seems more appropriate, but I need a temporal dimension to the distribution. I have weekly samples of two kinds of events: call them A and B. I have a count of A events. These change

"help" We want to estimate the number of caribou in Jasper. We recently conducted an aerial survey and saw 70 uncollared caribou and 8 of 11 collared caribou. We want to estimate the number of caribou in this population with 95% confidence limits. Gary White uses the hypergeometric distribution and determines the population estimates using maximum likelihood and 95%CL as

Hello. I want to write my notes in Sweave in my own language (spanish). But my language has accents and when I run Sweave in R to translate my Snw file into the tex file the accents are translated into unrecognizable characters. For example, the word "cami?n" (truck) is translated into "cami??n" Somebody knows how can I do it? One solution I don't like is using a

Hello. I'm trying to use the functions pandit and treebase. They are in the package apTreeshape. Once I've loaded the package, R responses: - no function pandit/treebase.

Hello. I need to know how can R compute AIC when I study a regression model? For example, if I use these data: growth tannin 1 12 0 2 10 1 3 8 2 4 11 3 5 6 4 6 7 5 7 2 6 8 3 7 9 3 8 and I do model <- lm (growth ~ tannin) AIC(model) R responses: 38.75990 I know the following formula to compute AIC: AIC=

Hello. I'd like to compute the associate vector of distances between leaves in a binary non-rooted tree. The definition of a distance between two leaves in a binary non-rooted tree is the number of edges in the path joining the two leaves. I've tried the ape package but I'm unable to find this vector. For example, using rtree(5,rooted=F) I've obtained the following tree: $edge

A cut and paste typo has crept in and is rendering all values returned for the hypergeometric distribution incorrect. The problem is in src/main/arithmetic.c in the function "math4". The lines PROTECT(sy = allocVector(REALSXP, n)); a = REAL(sa); b = REAL(sb); c = REAL(sc); d = REAL(sc); /* <-- change this line */ y = REAL(sy); should

Dear R team, I have a simple question. I tried this command: phyper(17,449,19551,181, FALSE) [1] 1.47295e-07 and then I tried this command: (fisher.test(matrix(c(17,449,181,19551),2,2), alternative='greater'))$p.value [1] 3.693347e-06 Shouldn't be identical the results of the two commands ? What is the difference ? Thx a lot -- View this message in context:

Hello. Consider the following matrix: mp <- matrix(c(0,1/4,1/4,3/4,0,1/4,1/4,3/4,1/2),3,3,byrow=T) > mp [,1] [,2] [,3] [1,] 0.00 0.25 0.25 [2,] 0.75 0.00 0.25 [3,] 0.25 0.75 0.50 The eigenvectors of the previous matrix are 1, 0.25 and 0.25 and it is not a diagonalizable matrix. When you try to find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors with R, R responses: > eigen(mp) $values [1]

I'm going to use dhyper(x, m, n, k) to get a 95% coverage. Let me use an example to explain my problem: Suppose I have a urn containing 90 red and 10 black balls. Now I wanna remove 3 from the urn. By the following codes: m<-90;n<-10;k<-3; x<-0:3 dhyper(x,m,n,k) I can obtain the probability that 0,1,2,3 red balls will be removed. 0.000742115 0.025046382 0.247680891

Hello! I use R-version 1.0.0 To get the 0.95 quantile of the hypergeometric distribution with the parameters m=45000,n=5000 and k=600 I use the R-command > qhyper(0.95,45000,5000,600). The value obtained is 600. However, the true value is 552. The latter can be obtained for example by calling the corresponding distribution function with the R commands > x<-540:580 >
