Dear, I am doing some statistics analysis using R software. I am currently trying to implement your library locfit. I am using Win NT and R1.1.1 version obtained on the following Webmaster : http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/ms/departments/sia/project/locfit/index.html When trying to run it, the following message appears: ********** Error in .C("guessnv", nvm = integer(1), ncm =

I have a question regarding the package LOCFIT of C Loader. After fitting a smooth surface (y modeled by two regressors), I can't seem to find a nice way of making a perspective (or other 3d plot). The contours don't look quite so good. It is meant to be used as illustration of smoothing to my students in regression analysis. Could anybody perhaps assist me in producing a

I would like to draw smooth curves instead of polygons. I could not find any spline function to do that : given an x and a y vectors, they all take the x in increasing order. Is there a function to draw a smooth curve through a set of points in any order ? with many thanks in advance Alain Guerreau CNRS Paris [[alternate HTML version deleted]]

Dear list I have a vector of values that allegedly have a bivariate normal distribution. I want to create a plot that shows the values I have obtained, and the bivariate normal distribution curve for the data. Is there a way of doing this in R? Many thanks for your help, Sarah. --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi there, Does R has built-in codes for nonpara. bivariate regression so that I can estimate the joint distribution of two variables as a function of some covariates? Thanks a lot. --------------------------------------------------- Ximing Wu Department of Economics University of Guelph Guelph, Ontario, Canada, N1G 2W1 Tel: (519) 842-4120, ext 53014 Fax: (519) 763-8497 email: xiwu at

is there a way of estimating derivative curves, similar to the ones we get from 'locpoly', from 'loess' estimation. i am interested in estimation of 1st and 2nd derivatives... --------------------------------- [[alternate HTML version deleted]]

Hello there, I am presently using the locfit package in "R" and would appreciate some help here. Could anyone tell me tell me how I can obtain the various components (x and y values)of the density estimation after using the "R" command "locfit"? For example, with the command "fhat<-density(somename)" I can obtain the x and y values by simply calling

Dear R Users, When using locpoly function, number of output values is smaller than the number of input values. How is it possible to get number of output component $y equal to the number of inputs. Thanks a lot, Amir --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I was wondering if there is a function in R which performs bivariate non parametric smoothing which allows for the possibility of including some weights in the smoothing (for each data points in my grid I have some predefined weights that I would like to include in the smoothing).

Hello All, Is there a local bandwidth selection routine for local polynomial regression (locpoly) ? Thanks Chinthaka Kuruwita

Have you ever worked in R with bivariate polynomials? How did you implement simple operators like addition/multiplication? I found a package called multipol that seems to support these kinds of operators but I do keep receiving error. Check for example the following snippet of code (you can copy & paste) require('orthopolynom') require('polynom') require('multipol')

Dear memberships, I'm trying to estimate the following multivariate local regression model using the "locfit" package: BMI=m1(RCC)+m2(WCC) where (m1) and (m2) are unknown smooth functions. My problem is that once I get the regression done I cannot get the fitted values of each of this smooth functions (m1) and (m2). What I write is the following library(locfit) data(ais)

Hi all, I'm trying to find a way to get xyplot to produce a second set of axes outside the right hand side of the graph. This is my progress so far: EE <- equal.count(ethanol$E, number=9, overlap=1/4) xyplot(NOx ~ C | EE, data = ethanol, prepanel = function(x, y) prepanel.loess(x, y, span = 1), xlab = "Compression Ratio", ylab = "NOx (micrograms/J)",

Hello!! At first thank you all for your suggestions and your help. But I would like to get another group of datas from the density estimation. I don't know if these information are provided by locfit or I should use an other function like plot(). Description: Each number between 1 and 100 (only integer) for example should have only one density value. But I also would like to have the density

Hello, I would be very grateful if anyone could help with what seems like a simple lattice task. I want to use xyplot, where the symbols for the plotted points are taken from another column in the data frame. So if the data frame looked like: a <- as.data.frame(matrix(data=c(1,1,10,2,2,20,3,3,30), nrow=3, ncol=3, byrow=TRUE)) a V1 V2 V3 1 1 1 10 2 2 2 20 3 3 3 30 you would get

I ran the following script from xyplot Examples using Tin-R on Windows and saw no plot produced. EE <- equal.count(ethanol$E, number=9, overlap=1/4) xyplot(NOx ~ C | EE, data=ethanol, prepanel = function(x,y) prepanel.loess(x, y, span=1), xlab="Compression Ratio", ylab="NOx (micrograms/J)", panel = function(x,y) { panel.grid()(h = -1, v=2)

Dear R-community, I have a fitted bivariate polynomial, i.e: fit = lm(cbind(x, y)~poly(t, 15)) and I would like to determine the length of the line in the interval t = [a, b]. Obviously, I could use predict and go through all the points, i.e. for (t in a:(b-1)) { length = length + sqrt((x.pred[t] - x.pred[t+1])^2 + (y.pred[t] - y.pred[t+1])^2) } but that would take very long given the amount

Hi list, This was asked a couple of years ago but I can't find a resolution. Is there any way to get the coefficients from one of the local polynomial fits in locfit. I realize that locfit only constructs polynomials at a handful of intelligently selected points and uses interpolation to predict any other points. I would like to know the terms of the polynomials at these points. It seems

Hi: (Tried to find a bug report about this issue, but was unable to find it, let me know if this is a known issue) I have been working on an interface to highlight xyplot panels on mouse overs in JavaGD but I have stumbled with what seems to be a bug in trellis.focus. I am using R 2.8 with lattice 0.17-15 *** To replicate the bug: 1.- display an xyplot. For example, from the xyplot help page:

Hello, I am a newbie to R and the subject of density estimation in two dimensions or more. I would like to have some advice concerning a comparison between the R packages for density estimation in bivariate or higher order problems; I mean explicitly the packages: 1) ash 2) KernSmooth 3) locfit 4) sm. My specific problem now is having a set of numerical pairs (x_i, y_i), arising from a
