Dear R users, I've written the following functions to implement Silverman's modality test ("Using kernel density estimates to investigate multimodality", J.R. Stat. Soc. B, 43, (1981), 97-99.), and I tested them on the Chondrite data set (Good & Gaskins, J. Amer. Stat. Ass., 75, (1980), 42-56). Values for the critical window width seem OK, which is not the case for the

Hello, I downloaded R today because I was told it has very good bootstrapping abilities. What I need to do is to program it (or use an existing program) to bootstrapping test for multimodality using nonparametric kernel density estimates as proposed by Efron and Tibshirani (1993). If anyone can get me started, I will be immensely grateful. Thanks. Sangeeta

Dear R users, I am interested in uni- bi- multimodality tests, for analysing reaction times data. I was lead to Hartigan's dip test (Ann. Statistics, 13, 1985, pp. 70-84, Applied Statistics, 34, 1985, 320-325). Not being a programmer I am unable to translate the Fortran code given in ref. 2 into a R function. I'd be glad to learn that someone already did it, or has devised a better

I am planning on using Runt to calculate recurring events. I calculate a Runt object in the view and use it to see if it includes a certain date, which is populates from the database, and display the info for that date if it is included. I have recurring events for every week, which was pretty easy to set up. I can just say: r = Runt::DIWeek.new(4) For a recurring event every Thursday, and

Hi all, I''m trying to include the ''runt'' gem (http://runt.rubyforge.org/) in my Rails project. I''ve tried a few ways of doing this. I''ve tried installing runt using ''gem install runt'' and then trying to do "require ''runt''" in my environment.rb, and I''ve also tried using the ''vendor

Holding the vblk->lock across kick causes poor scalability in SMP guests. If one CPU is doing virtqueue kick and another CPU touches the vblk->lock it will have to spin until virtqueue kick completes. This patch reduces system% CPU utilization in SMP guests that are running multithreaded I/O-bound workloads. The improvements are small but show as iops and SMP are increased. Khoa Huynh

It looks like Biostrings function "writeFASTA" overwrites the output file at each run. It seems it does not support the "append" parameter. I have to generate one big file gathering a miRNA identifier and relative sequence followd by a variable number of dara records pertaining such a miRNA target genes transcription. Each record is made up of a 3'utr identifier

Dear all, I wanna create a GNU/Linux that it boots from USB. I don't any idea on that. Can you introduce me a doc that i can use it & i can solve my problem?

Hi, Jens & Rusty This version is rebased against linux-next which resolves the conflict with Paolo Bonzini's 'virtio-blk: allow toggling host cache between writeback and writethrough' patch. Patch 1/3 and 2/3 applies on linus's master as well. Since Rusty will pick up patch 3/3 so the changes to block core (adding blk_bio_map_sg()) will have a user. Jens, could you please

I''m using the runt library [1] to do some temporal expression matching. I want to keep the expression in a binary field in my db. I figured that then in order to do the fixtures, I''d need to do some erb in the yaml file. So I came up with this: onetime: id: 1 name: One Time description: This event occurs only one time. timex: <%= REYear.new(7) & REMonth.new(24)

yup runned it. probably something wrong with my initrd filesystem. can you send me a directory listing of your initrd? and probably a sample linuxrc. if worse comes to worse, i'll probably load my usb and scsi modules in the initrd. i'm probably doing it all wrong. i'm trying to imitate the slackware10usb way of booting up. every driver built in the kernel, patch on the mounting root

Hi, all Changes in v7: - Using vbr->flags to trace request type - Dropped unnecessary struct virtio_blk *vblk parameter - Reuse struct virtblk_req in bio done function - Added performance data on normal SATA device and the reason why make it optional Fio test shows bio-based IO path gives the following performance improvement: 1) Ramdisk device With bio-based IO path, sequential

Hi all, I am noticing a significant degradation in execution performance in loops with just one backedge than loops with two backedges. Unifying the backedges into one will also cause the slowdown. To replicate this problem, I used the C code in https://gist.github.com/sklam/11f11a410258ca191e6f263262a4ea65 and checked against clang-3.8 and clang-4.0 nightly. Depending on where I put the

Out of necessity, a friend of mine and I have created a patch for syslinux to allow it to modify the mbr and partition table in windows. It adds a -m option to syslinux. If given, it will overwrite the MBR of the drive specified with the mbr.bin provided in syslinux, and if the bootable flag is not set on the partition being syslinuxed, it will set it. This was done to distribute with my USB

This patchset implements bio-based IO path for virito-blk to improve performance. Fio test shows bio-based IO path gives the following performance improvement: 1) Ramdisk device With bio-based IO path, sequential read/write, random read/write IOPS boost : 28%, 24%, 21%, 16% Latency improvement: 32%, 17%, 21%, 16% 2) Fusion IO device With bio-based IO path, sequential
