I'm trying to personalize the rpart function by introducing a list('init','split','eval') in the argument method. But I receive an error message:"Error in t.default(x): argument is not a matrix". Can anyone tell me what the argument of this function is or where this function appears in the rpart function.Thanks Simone Vantini

Hallo! I am a student of the Politecnico di Milano (Milan, italy) and I'm working on CARTs. I'm trying to use the R rpart function with a personalized splitfunction... but I'm not able to do it! More precisely, I would like to know what is the meaning of the function 'init', 'split' and 'eval' named in the help page.I can't find any answer in

I'm a PhD student and I'm working with covariance function. I'm interested to know if exist some packages in R to calculate and plot the bidimensional Autocovariance Function. the input matrix is a matrix that describe a spatial location over a 2-D space and I want to use it in the same way I can use a time serie in the 1-D acf. Thanks, Nicola.

Hallo R-users, I would like to know if there is a way to get the effective degrees of freedom in local polinomial regression. At the moment, to carry out the local polinomial regression, I am using the function locpoly() in library KernSmooth (I need to estimate both the regression function and its derivatives, up to the 3rd one). Thanks, Simone -- Simone Vantini MOX - Modeling and

Hi Spencer, I have seen your name on the web site, and perhaps you can help me with my R problem. I'm trying to use KernSur to put in evidence a substructure in a bidimensional plot. My problem is that, in order to get the density in the low density areas (in which the substructure is located) I should use different bandwidths. How I can do that? Also, I think that the best choice for my

Hi, I would like to know if it is possible to have a "R code" to estimate the parameters of a mixture of bivariate (or multivariate) normals via EM Algorithm. I tried to write it, but in the estimation of the matrix of variance and covariance, i have some problems. I generate two bidimensional vectors both from different distribution with their own vector means and variance and

I have a tree created with tr.hh.logcas <- rpart(log(YCASSX + 1)~AGE+DRUGUSEY+SEX+OBSXNUM +WINDLE, xval = 10) I would like to label the nodes with YCASSX rather than log(YCASSX + 1). But the help file for text in library rpart says that you can only use labels that are part of x$frame, which YCASSX is not. Is there a way to do what I want? Thanks in advance Peter Peter L. Flom, PhD

Hi and thanks in advance to everyone who will be able to help me. I have 2 independent lognormal distributions with different means and sd. I want to plot them togheter in a 3D plot. How can i do this??? I'm getting crazy...

An NA in the rownames of a matrix (or dataframe) causes misalignment when the matrix is printed: R> x <- matrix(1:12, 3,4, dimnames=list(letters[1:3], LETTERS[1:4])) R> rownames(x)[2] <- NA R> x A B C D a 1 4 7 10 <NA> 2 5 8 11 c 3 6 9 12 The bug is in function Rstrlen, in src/main/printutils.c. MatrixRowLabel and MatrixColumnLabel (same file) rely on Rstrlen

Easy question that I can't find an answer for. I'm trying to subset a data frame and want to exclude the positive values, i.e. I want the NA values. My data: > summary(temp$tuna) Min. 1st Qu. Median Mean 3rd Qu. Max. NA's 1 2 3 3 4 5 1211 Querying for subset(temp, tuna %in% "NA", select.... subset(temp, tuna == NA,

Hi All, This question was brought up some time ago but I never saw a reply so I'd like to bring it up again. When using ROracle package (version 0.5-5), I am unable to run any queries that are greater than 4000 characters in length. If I do, I get the following message: Error in oraPrepareStatement(con, statement, bind=NULL) : RS-DBI driver: (too long a statement -- it must has less than

Hello there. I have fitted a rpart model. > rpartModel <- rpart(y~., data=data.frame(y=y,x=x),method="class", ....) and can use rpart$where to find out the terminal nodes that each observations belongs. Now, I have a set of new data and used predict.rpart which seems to give only the predicted value with no information similar to rpart$where. May I know how

Hi, I'm sorry to send email to everyone on this list, but I have a simple question which is bothering me and I can't seem to figure out the correct answer. I just downloaded R and I'm trying to reproduce some simple analysis I've done on other packages. In particular, if I have a vector of experimental values and a vector of their uncertainties, is there a way to plot the

Dear R users, I'm working with the rpart package and want to evaluate the performance of user defined split functions. I have some problems in understanding the meaning of the xval argument in the two functions rpart.control and xpred.rpart. In the former it is defined as the number of cross-validations while in the latter it is defined as the number of cross-validation groups. If I am

Hi all, I'm building a plot of the values in tmeant (below) against positions 1 to 5, using matplot. tmeant looks like this: case1 case2 pos1 861.8466 818.5909 pos2 961.2841 976.3466 pos3 878.6080 1262.8523 pos4 950.8011 1129.6080 pos5 968.1080 1063.3920 I also have lower (object tl) and upper (object tu) bounds on the confidence intervals as follows: tl: pos1

Hello all, In the course of trying to implement the CDF of an InverseGammaDistribution, I have run across the need for an igamma() function. Several others have needed this function but the answers I have found so far are not totally clear to me. I'm writing for three reasons: 1) to present a small error in the docs 2) to clarify the approach we are expected to take 3) to request,for the

I am using R 1.6.0 on Windows 2000 Professional. I am trying to rotate x-axis labels using "srt = 45, adj = 1", but nothing is happening. It is like the axis command is ignoring the "srt" and "adj" arguments. Thanks, Mike Lane -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read

Hi, I would like to place a line (tilted at an angle) in the margin of an R plot. Is there any way to place such an annotation outside the plotting area? As an alternative, being able to plot a rotated character (the pipe, |) in the margin would be sufficient. The problem is that mtext doesn't work with the srt option. As a further alternative, if I could put a legend in the margin, I

I have just upgraded from R 1.7.3 to R 1.9.0 and have found that the predict function no longer works for rpart: > predict(hmmm,sim3[1:10,]) Error in predict.rpart(hmmm, sim3[1:10, ]) : couldn't find function "pred.rpart" I have re-installed the rpart package to no avail. Any ideas? Giles Hooker
