similar to: R Commander QQ Plot with triangular distribution

The Runuran package includes a simulation for the Triangular Distribution, urtriang. But I didn't find an analogue of the q* functions (rnorm - qnorm, runif - qunif), that would invert the CDF (?uqtriang). Are there any such functions? Alberto Monteiro

Hi Group, Here is some data. p <- runif(1000) # sample data groups <- rep(c(1,2),each=500) #conditioning variable mydata <- cbind(p,groups) n <- length(p) u <- (1:n)/(n + 1) # uniform distribution reference for qqplot logp <- -log(p,base=10) logu <- -log(u,base=10) qqplot(logp,logu) How can I make the above qqplot in lattice and/or ggplot2. The sample is uniform, and I take

Dear All, this is my first post to the R-help, so please don't be too strict. My problem concerns a QQ-Plot: I want to show how well empirical samples match with a theoretical distribution. The theoretical distribution has got several parameters, but I made it to fit via ML. Anyway, the theoretical function gives me the density for a given data point x. As far as I'm

Hello! I am trying with this question again: I would like to test few distributional assumptions for some behavioral response data. There are few theories about true distribution of those data, like: normal, lognormal, gamma, ex-Gaussian (exponential-Gaussian), Wald (inverse Gaussian) etc. The best way would be via qq-plot, to show to students differences. First two are trivial: qqnorm(dat$X)

Hello everyone I'm a beginner in Stats and R, I'm using R 2.10.1. I need to create a multivariate qq plot, there is 8 variable group with each has 55 number of input. An example of what I did so far, just to get my point out: > data=read.csv(file.choose(),header=T) > data country village group av_expen P2ary_ed no_fisher 1 Cook Islands Aitutaki D

Hello, I am having two data set original and predicted. I want to dind QQ-plot fot it. I tried in following manner : >qq(original~predicted) and error was : Error in qq.formula(o ~ p) : y must have exactly 2 levels There is an option "qtype" which dosent make any difference. What is the correct way for plotting QQ-plot or am I missing something. -- Amar Kumar Nandan

I would like to change the position of the major tick marks in my qq-plot? Right now the ticks are set at 5.5, 6.0, 6.5 and 7.0. I would like them to be at 5.4, 5.6, 5.8, 6.0, 6.2, 6.4, 6.8 and 7.0. So I would have to remove some of the present ticks. So far I can only add ticks to the plot with: axis(1,at=c(5.4, 5.6, 5.8, 6.0, 6.2, 6.4, 6.8, 7.0)) Is there a solution to my

Hi all, I am trying to test wheater the distribution of my samples is normal with QQ plot. I have a values of water content in clays in around few hundred samples. Is the code : qqnorm(w) #w being water content qqline(w) sufficient? How do I know when I get the plots which distribution is normal and which is not? Thanks, m [[alternative HTML version

Hello, I am trying to get fitted/estimated values using kernel regression and a triangular kernel. I have found packages that easily fit values from a kernel regression (e.g. ksmooth) but do not have a triangular distribution option, and density estimators that have triangular distribution options that I can't seem to use to produce estimated values (e.g. density). Any help is appreciated.

Hello, I want to create a triangular matrix and only keep the lower triangle entries without having to allocate memory for the whole matrix, is there any way I can do something like  A<-matrix(data, nrow=50)  but for a triangular matrix? Thanks ERV [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Given a vector;> ab = seq(0.5,1, by=0.1)> ab[1] 0.5 0.6 0.7 0.8 0.9 1.0 The euclidean distance between the vector elements is given by the lower triangular matrix > dd1 = dist(ab,"euclidean")> dd1    1   2   3   4   52 0.1                3 0.2 0.1            4 0.3 0.2 0.1        5 0.4 0.3 0.2 0.1    6 0.5 0.4 0.3 0.2 0.1 Convert the lower triangular matrix to a full

Hi Has anyone tried to fit a thin plate spine to a triangular plot before? I'm having trouble working out a piece of code to make it possible with three axes. I have done it before with two axes. I've found a package I prefer that makes triangular plots (plotrix) using the triax.plot() function. An example of some data and the plot follows: graph.data<-data.frame(a=c(9,6.2,

Hi I have two symmetrical distance matrices and want to compute the correlation coefficient between them (after turning them into vectors). Is there a way of selecting only the upper triangular part of each matrix, then convert this into a vector so I can compute the correlation? Many Thanks Eleni Rapsomaniki

Hello, I have some xy data which clearly shows a non-monotonic, peaked triangular trend. You can get an idea of what it looks like with: x<-1:20 y<-c(2*x[1:10]+1,-2*x[11:20]+42) I've tried fitting a quadratic, but it just doesn't the data-structure with the break point adequately. Is there anyway to fit a triangular or 'tent' function to my data in R? Some sample code

Howdy, I couldn't find any way to generate deviates from a triangular PDF in R, so here's a function to do so. -Andy rtri <- function(n=1,min=0,max=1,ml=0.5) { # Return independent random deviates from a # triangular distribution. # n is number of deviates requested # min, max are lower and upper limits of r.v. range # ml is the most-likely value

I have output from a program which produces a distance matrix I want to read into a clustering program in R. The output is a .txt file and is 'almost' lower triangular in the sense that it is just the triangle below the diagonal. So for example a 4-by-4 distance matrix appears as, 1 2 3 4 5 6 i.e. it looks like a lower triangular of a 3-by3. I thought I might be able

Dear list, I will like to learn how to read a lower triangular matrix in R. The input file *.txt have the following format: A B C D E A 0 B 1 0 C 2 5 0 D 3 6 8 0 E 4 7 9 10 0 How this can be done? Thanks in advance for your help Rog??rio

Hi Everyone, I want to make 3 lines on the same graph (not as subplots, all in the same window, one on top of each other) and I want them to be quantile-quantile plots (qqplot). Essentially, I am looking for the equivalent of Matlab's "hold on" command to use with qqplot. I know I can use 'points' or 'lines', but these do not give me a qqplot (only appear to work
