similar to: Fitting t copula

Hi all, I need to test gof of 3-dimensional t copula for my trivariate observed data set. So I used the command t.cop <- tCopula(c(0.785,0.283,0.613),dim=3,dispstr="un",df=6,df.fixed = TRUE) where c(0.785,0.283,0.613) is the correlation pattern of my data with 0.785 pearson correlation between variable 1-2, 0.283 correlation between 1-3 and 0.613 is the correlation between variable

Hi R-users, I would like to use the copula package.? I? the package plus the mvtnorm and try to run the example given, but I got the following message: install.packages(repos=NULL,pkgs="c:\\Tinn-R\\copula_0.8-3.zip") norm.cop <- normalCopula(c(0.5, 0.6, 0.7), dim = 3, dispstr = "un") t.cop <- tCopula(c(0.5, 0.3), dim = 3, dispstr = "toep", df = 2, df.fixed =

I need to fit a t copula with fixed degree of freedom let's say 4. I do not want to estimate the dof together with correlation matrix optimally. Instead fix the dof to 4 and only estimate the correlation matrix in the optimization routine. Is anyone aware of such estimation method in R. The packages and functions that I know of can't do this estimation. I searched online but

Hi, I am trying to fit t copula to some data, and I am using the following function in the library(QRMlib). Udatac <- apply(datac, 2, edf,adjust=1) tcopulac <- fit.tcopula.rank(Udatac) But the error message come out "Error in fit.tcopula.rank(Udatac) : Non p.s.d. covariance matrix" Could anyone give me some advice? In fact, I am not sure what the "adjust=1" is used for.

Is anybody using the Copula package in R? The particular problem I'm facing is that R is not acknowledging the fitCopula command/function when I load the package and (try to) run something very simple: fit1 <- fitCopula(x1 = list(u11,u12,u13,u14,u15,u16,u17,u18), tCopula, optim.control = list(NULL), method = "BFGS") Anybody also using it, successfully or unsuccessfully?

Dear All, I'm now working on Archimedean copulas and try to test the goodness of fit. Which packages I should use? I have Clayton copula with parameter (5.35) and Frank (19.5). I found this build function wrote by Yan and Ivan via R Packages, but I'm not sure the matrix for x? Please advice. e.g gofCopula(claytonCopula(1),x) Thank you Regards, Fayyad [[alternative HTML version

Hi everybody, I try to simulate random numbers from a trivariate nested Archimedean copula. My aim is to correlate two processes with, e.g. theta2, as the so called child pair and then to correlate these two processes with a third one with theta1 (parent). This "figure" tries to capture what I am explaining theta1 theta2

Hi everybody, trying to get the Dovecot antispam_plugin to work and I must be doing something wrong, because as soon as it is enabled with a certain backend, imap logins do not work anymore (the session is immediately closed after a successful login). Interestingly, pipe and spool2dir are working (that is, the session won't be closed), dspam-exec and crm114-exec are not. If this happens,

I am using R 2.5.0 on windows XP and trying to fit copula. I see the following code works for some users, however my code crashes on the chol. Any suggestions? > mycop <- tCopula(param=0.5, dim=8, dispstr="ex", df=5) > x <- rcopula(mycop, 1000) > myfit <- fitCopula(x, mycop, c(0.6, 10), optim.control=list(trace=1), method="Nelder-Mead")

Hi all, ########################################## dof=c(1,2,4,8,16,32) Q5=matrix(rt(100,dof),100,6,T,dimnames=list(NULL,dof)) par(mfrow=c(2,6)) apply(Q5,2,hist) myf=function(x){ qqnorm(x);qqline(x) } apply(Q5,2,myf) ########################################## These looks ok. However, I would like to achieve more. Apart from using a loop, is there are fast way to 'add' the titles to be

Hello Everyone Both the MCMCpack and the bayesm libraries allow us to make draws from the Inverse Wishart distribution. But I wanted to find out how exactly is the Inverse Wishart distribution parameterized in these libraries. The reason I ask is the following: Now its generally standard to express Inverse Wishart as IW(0.5 * DOF,0.5* Scale). (DOF-> Degree of freedom, Scale -> Scale

Dear R-devel list members, Ben Fairbank draw it to my attention that factanal() (in the stats package) doesn't report factor correlations for oblique rotations. Looking at the source, I see that factanal also doesn't save the factor-transformation (rotation) matrix from which these correlations can be computed. I've modified the source, attached below, so that the transformation

Hi, I'm a new user of R. I want to install 'copula' packages. I downloaded the package and from the tab above in R-console i selected "install packages from Zipped file". After this when I 'm writing in a command prompt library(copula). It gives the error massage as Error in library(copula) : 'copula' is not a valid installed package. I'm not sure how to

Could somebody share some tips on implementing multivariate integration and partial differentiation in R? For example, for a trivariate joint distribution (cumulative density function) of F(x,y,z), how to differentiate with respect to x and get the bivariate distribution (probability density function) of f(y,z). Or integrate f(x,y,z) with respect to x to get bivariate distribution of (y,z). Your

--=-hiYzUeWcRJ/+kx41aPIZ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Hi, on March 10 I filed a wishlist bug report asking for the inclusion of some changes to factanal() and the associated print method. The changes were originally proposed by John Fox in 2005; they make print.factanal() display factor correlations if factanal() is called with rotation =

Hi, I'm trying to fit a marginal model via GEE but I'm getting strange results and few problems. If I set the working correlation as exchangeable I'm getting the same fitting when I set as independent. Comparing to SAS results it shouldn't happen. If I try to use another working correlation (like AR-M or stat_M_dep), R just exits without giving any error message. Another doubt

hi guys, I am using trivariate VAR model to get 10 step ahead orthogonalized impulse response functions. I want to use rolling sample analysis on the coefficients of the irf but I have no idea how to do that. I looked through the forums but I can't seem to find any solutions. Any suggestions would be helpful. B -- View this message in context:

Dear all, I am having a (really) hard time getting pyears to work together with a ratetable to give me the number of expected events (deaths). I have the following data: dos, date of surgery, as.Date dof, date of last follow-up, as.Date dos, date of surgery, as.Date sex, gender, as.factor (female,male) ev, event(death), 0= censored at time point dof, 1=death at time point dof Could someone

Folks; I am having a problem with the cv.glm and would appreciate someone shedding some light here. It seems obvious but I cannot get it. I did read the manual, but I could not get more insight. This is a database containing 3363 records and I am trying a cross-validation to understand the process. When using the cv.glm, code below, I get mean of perr1 of 0.2336 and SD of 0.000139. When using a

Hello everyone, Assuming this is the right place to post potential bug reports, try this : (Apologies if it's been posted/covered somewhere else, but your lists don't seem to have a search facility...) nmbd had a good go at fork bombing my "server" just now, with a setup as follows : Samba 2.2.0a on Slackware Linux v8.0, linux kernel 2.4.16. i586 with 500ish mb of ram.
