I made an attempt to partly decrease fragment by using a preallocated area of multiple size of a std blocksize for a tree block when it is COWed. The basic idea is that if any a tree block need to be created, we offer, say, 2 or 4 multiples of a std blocksize for it, then use the first block in the continuous blocks. When this block need a cow in the future, a new free block in these continuous

Greetings all, I'm a newcomer to Bayesian stats, and I'm trying to calculate the Deviance Information Criterion "by hand" from some MCMC output. However, having consulted several sources, I am left confused as to the exact terms to use. The most common formula can be written as DIC = 2*Mean(Deviance over the whole sampled posterior distribution) - Deviance(Mean

Hi, Last week my class conducted an experiment by putting out clay caterpillars to look at the effects of urbanization, color, and location on caterpillar predation. There were two sites (urban, rural), three colors (green, yellow, red) and two locations at each site (edge, interior). The entire data set is below. I've checked out the MASS book, Dalgaard's book, and the R-help archives

This is a question of clarification. IN 2009 Higgins, Thompson and Spiegelhalter (J R Statist Soc A 172:137-159) gave WinBUGs code to get credible intervals from random effects meta analysis for the prediction interval of a new study. It appears that the predict.rma function creates approximate credible intervals (pending a function revision by the author) for that purpose. Is my assumption

Dear R-people, I hope asking this is not too cheeky, but I do have a R Problem. I hope that some of you like to play around with R and can help me. Its like this. I have several plant species (A,B,C) and 10 replicates per species. 5 plants per species are damaged, 5 not. I let a caterpillar feed on each plant and measured the growth of the caterpillars on control plants (CR) and on damaged

Thanks to those who responded to my inquiry about generalized linear mixed models on R and S-plus. Before I summarize the software, I note that there are several ways of doing statistical inference for generalized linear mixed models: (1)Standard maximum likelihood estimation, computationally intensive due to intractable likelihood function (2) Penalized quasi likelihood or similar

Hi, I'm attending summer School at UCLA (IPAM) on "probabilistics models of cognition". I have been an R-user since v. 1.4.1, but was trained in the frequentist tradition (as most psychologists!). I found that all faculty here use matlab and Murphy's bayes net toolbox. I have not had the need to use matlab before, and would love to stick to R for graphics models and

Hello all, I''m hoping that someone out there in Rails-land has developed in both Cocoon and Rails and would like to share their experiences using both application frameworks. I''m going to be doing a presentation in the next couple of days on the advantages that Rails affords. The higher-ups are going to use this info on deciding whether or not to move away from Cocoon and

Greetings ~ I need some assistance determining an appropriate approach to analyzing multivariate binary response data, and how to do it in R. The setting: Data from an assay, wherein 6-hours-post-fertilization zebrafish embryos (n=20, say) are exposed in a vial to a chemical (replicated 3 times, say), and 5 days later observed for the presence/absence (1/0) of defects in several organ systems

Hi R Users, When I use package lme4 for mixed model analysis, I can't distinguish the significant and insignificant variables from all random independent variables. Here is my data and result: Data: Rice<-data.frame(Yield=c(8,7,4,9,7,6,9,8,8,8,7,5,9,9,5,7,7,8,8,8,4,8,6,4,8,8,9), Variety=rep(rep(c("A1","A2","A3"),each=3),3),

Hello. Douglas Bates has explained in a previous posting to R why he does not output residual degrees of freedom, F values and probabilities in the mixed model (lmer) function: because the usual degrees of freedom (obs - fixed df -1) are not exact and are really only upper bounds. I am interpreting what he said but I am not a professional statistician, so I might be getting this wrong... Does

Im a new linux user and am trying to get league of legends to run on my linux laptop. Everytime i try to run the installer however it spins like its about to start running and then stops. It doesn't give me an error message or anything it just stops working. HELP!!!!

I just got into the League of Legends beta and I know it's asking for a lot to get a game in it's beta working but I cannot get past the installation because it errors out when it tries to install AdobeAIR. I have installed AdobeAIR to be native but because it is part of the installer it will keep erroring me. It creates a folder and I've tried running the updater after killing the

After that I installed the new Catalyst driver 9.8 for my Ati HD 4870. Then a new problem occured. S4 League gave me an error which told me that my direct x version wasn't up to date. So I downloaded it installed
