Hi, I'm analysing some anthropometric data on fifty odd skull bases. We know the gender of each skull, and we are trying to develop a predictor to identify the sex of unknown skulls. Rpart with cross-validation produces two models - one of which predicts gender for Males well, and Females poorly, and the other does the opposite (Females well, and Males poorly). In both cases the error

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, I have a fairly large database (N=13,000) and a single main categorical discriminator between the groups. I want to look at the time course of a number of continuous biochemical variables over chronologic age. Therefore I believe I need to prepare hexbinplots in two columns with simple regression lines in them (with useOuterStrips (in library(latticeExtra) if

Hi, I was wondering if there is a ready made function or parameter for indicating the sample size in boxplots? Here's what I came up with so far: library(ISwR) data(energy) attach(energy) boxplot(expend~stature) sample.size <- tapply(expend, stature, length) sample.size <- paste("N=", sample.size, sep="") mtext(sample.size, at=1:length(unique(stature)), line=2,

Dear there, I am working on the NHANES survey data, and want to apply quantile regression on these complex survey data. Does anyone know how to do this? Thank you in advance, Yiling Cheng Yiling J.

We are constructing growth charts (age/weight and age/length) for children with diagnosis that impacts weight/length. But we we don't know how to use R for producing growth charts. We are collection data of Age, Weight and Length. The data are used to produce diagnosis-specific Growth charts (like the CDC Growth Charts:

Dear folks ? I have a large (26 gig) ASCII flat file in fixed-width format with about 10 million observations of roughly 400 variables.

The file is not accompanied by a human-readable file giving the

Hello I would like to pass a model formula as an argument to the with.mids function from the mice package. The with.mids functon fits models to multiply imputed data sets. Here's a simple example library(mice) #Create multiple imputations on the nhanes data contained in the mice package. imp <- mice(nahnes) #Fitting a linear model with each imputed data set the regular way works

Hello, I'm using a complex survey dataset and my goal is to simply spit out a bunch of probability-weighted outcome variable means for the different levels of covariate. So I first define the structure of the study design (I'm using the CDC's NHANES data): dhanes <- svydesign(id=~PSU, strat=~STRATA, weight=~lab_weight, data=final, nest=TRUE) No problem there. Now I use the

Dear Niels I am trying to construct some anthropometric standards for adults using LMS and GAMLSS in R. I saw that you had a problem that I have with the package lmsqreg of the package being reported as "not a valid package". I presume you solved your problem, but I did not see how in the r-help list. Can you help? Thanks, Richard Palmer-Jones [[alternative HTML version

What's the consensus? Should winbind even be considered for production use? Looking back through the archives of the Samba lists, there's a lot of doubt about it. Where people have had problems, there are more often than not no solutions given. When I look at the man page in 3.0.28, there are litterally blank spots awaiting completion, and lack of documentation of sometimes-essential
