Hi, I'm trying to use Frank Harrell's Design:::ols function to do regression of y (numeric) on the interaction of two factors (x1 and x2), but Lapack throws an error: > library(Design) ... > load(url("http://www.csse.unimelb.edu.au/~gabraham/x")) > ols(y ~ x1 * x2, data=x) Error in chol2inv(fit$qr$qr) : 'size' cannot exceed nrow(x) = 20 > traceback()

Hi, I have two example packages, test1 and test2, where the only code in them is: setGeneric("predict", function(object, ...) standardGeneric("predict")) (get them from http://www.cs.mu.oz.au/~gabraham/test1.tar and http://www.cs.mu.oz.au/~gabraham/test2.tar) The difference between them is that first does not have a namespace, and loads fine. The second has a namespace

Hi, I'd like to store large covariance matrices using Matrix classes. dsyMatrix seems like the right one, but I want to specify just the upper/lower triangle and diagonal and not have to instantiate a huge n^2 vector just for the sake of having half of it ignored: Dumb example: M <- new("dsyMatrix", uplo="U", x=rnorm(1e4), Dim=as.integer(c(100, 100))) diag(M) <- 1

Hi, I'm doing PCA on wide matrices and I don't understand why calling predict.prcomp on it throws an error: > x1 <- matrix(rnorm(100), 5, 20) > x2 <- matrix(rnorm(100), 5, 20) > p <- prcomp(x1) > predict(p, x2) Error in predict.prcomp(p, x2) : 'newdata' does not have the correct number of columns > dim(x2) [1] 5 20 > dim(p$rotation) [1] 20 5

Hi, I'm using Ubuntu Hardy i386, and the R 2.7.1 Ubuntu packages from CRAN. The CRAN r-base-dev package depends on refblas3-dev or atlas3-base-dev, but octave3.0-headers depends on libblas-dev. The two blas packages seem to conflict, so r-base-dev and octave3.0-headers can't be installed together. Is this a known issue? Thanks, Gad $ sudo apt-get install octave3.0-headers Reading

Hi, I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 amd64 with cran2deb packages (I know it's meant for Debian, it's worked fine for me for many months). Recently apt-get update has to started to complain: ...

Hi, I have an RData file containing a GeneSetCollection object (Bioconductor), http://www.cs.mu.oz.au/~gabraham/c2.RData. I think it uses lazy loading because packages are only loaded when I access the object (see below) in the R console. When I try the same with Rscript, it segfaults. This happens on 2.9.0 both on Linux and Mac: Rscript -e 'load("c2.RData"); c2[1]' ***

Hi, Say I have two packages, test1 and test2, that both define the generic method train (identical definition), and each has a specific train method for a different S4 object (foo and bar, resp.) I want to be able to call train(foo, x, y) and train(bar, x, y), which doesn't work since test2 masks test1, as seen below. The two solutions I can think of are to a) prefix train,

Hi, I'm trying to plot several lag.plots on a page, however the second plot replaces the first one (although it only takes up the upper half as it should): par(mfrow=c(2,1)) a<-sin(1:100) b<-cos(1:100) lag.plot(a) lag.plot(b) What's the trick to this? I'm using R 2.2.1 (2005-12-20 r36812) on Ubuntu Linux. Thanks, Gad -- Gad Abraham Department of Mathematics and

Hi, Design isn't strictly an R base package, but maybe someone can explain the following. When lrm is called within a function, it can't find the dataset dd: > library(Design) > age <- rnorm(30, 50, 10) > cholesterol <- rnorm(30, 200, 25) > ch <- cut2(cholesterol, g=5, levels.mean=TRUE) > fit <- function(ch, age) + { + d <- data.frame(ch, age) +

Hi R helpers, I'm fitting large number of single factor logistic regression models as a way to immediatly discard factor which are insignificant. Everything works fine expect that for some factors I get error message "Singular information matrix in lrm.fit" which breaks whole execution loop... how to make LRM not to throw this error and simply skip factors with singularity

Hi, Say x.train is a matrix of covariates that I want to do PCA on, so I can do regression on its principal components, and x.test is a test set of the same covariates on which I want to evaluate the regression fit. I would like the covariates to be centred and scaled: p <- prcomp(x.train, center=TRUE, scale=TRUE) x.train.pc <- predict(p) Now I want to get the PCs from the test set.

After doing a PCA using princomp, how do you view how much each component contributes to variance in the dataset. I'm still quite new to the theory of PCA - I have a little idea about eigenvectors and eigenvalues (these determine the variance explained?). Are the eigenvalues related to loadings in R?

Hi! Is there any package or function on R to ARMA models (Box & Jenkins, without sazonality and trend) with resources to automatic identification for p and q ? Regards, Raphael Saldanha Brazil [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, Again I'm doing logistic regression using lrm from Harrell's Design package, but on wide matrices (28 observations, 1891 variables) so L2 penalisation is used. I get the following error, although I've tried different penalties and different tolerances. The X matrix is scaled and centred. > library(Design) >

Hi, Can anyone explain how the standard error in arima() is calculated? Also, how can I extract it from the Arima object? I don't see it in there. > x <- rnorm(1000) > a <- arima(x, order = c(4, 0, 0)) > a Call: arima(x = x, order = c(4, 0, 0)) Coefficients: ar1 ar2 ar3 ar4 intercept -0.0451 0.0448 0.0139 -0.0688 0.0010 s.e.

Hi, We're using stats4 for a logistic regression. The code is chdreg.logit2 <- glm(chd ~ age + sex, family = binomial) summary(chdreg.logit2) oddsratios <- coef(chdreg.logit2) exp(oddsratios) # Calculate model predicted values pred <- predict(chdreg.logit2,type="response") The glm part runs fine, and up to now so has the predict function. However, now we're

Hi, I want to use R to do user-submitted jobs in a (java-based) webapp. Specifically, I want * users to upload R scripts * run the R job on user data * save the results to database I'm concerned about sandbox issues. * Is it possible to disable file read/write capability? * Can I prevent the user from loading packages (e.g. the database package). * Can I have users work on separate data

I am new to 'R' and also new to the concept of a 'Hessian' with non-linear optimization. I would like to avoid going through all of the reference articles given with ?optim as access to a library is not handy. Would someone be able to elighten me on what is in the Hessian matrix if 'hessian = TRUE' with optim? The documentation indicates that this is a numerically

Hello List, My question is an elementary one. I have run a fuzzy kmeans cluster using FANNY to group freshwater fish assemblages. I then went in the field to validate that classification and have retrieved new assemblage data for a new suite of streams. Therefore I would like to use Predict to determine how well the original clustering fits the new data. However I have not figured out a
