similar to: bandwidth selection for locpoly

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]]

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 am using the package "KernSmooth" to do the local polynomial regression. However, it seems the function "locpoly" can only deal with univariate covaraite. I wonder is there any kernel smoothing package in R can deal with bivariate covariates? I also checked the package "lcofit" in which function "lcofit" can indeed deal with bivariate case. The

Dear R users, I am currently using the locpoly function from the KernSmooth package to estimate densities. However, I have some trouble understanding how this estimation technique is implemented in R. My main concern comes from the fact that this function gives negative estimates when the bandwidth is sufficiently large (mainly in the tails of distributions). I have read some articles on this

Dear list, I've got a question concerning difference between loess and locpoly. I have to use a plug-in method to chose a bandwith so I take locpoly method to fit a curve. My problem is:I know how to get predicted values in loess: m=loess(y~x) y_fitted=predict(m). But how to get the same in locpoly? I computed like this: bw=dpill(x, y, blockmax = 5, divisor = 20,trim = 0.01, proptrun =

1. Please do make use of the subject line. 2. Please (re-)read the description of the `range.x' argument in ?locpoly: it's suppose to be a vector of min and max x values. 3. I hope you realize how grossly inefficient this computation is... Andy > From: klea lambrou > > > hello R-users.could you please help me on this one?i have > 2 vectors x1 > and y1 and

Hi Does R have a function or has someone written a function to draw a 3d surface from a scatter plot of values using either ksmooth or locpoly. OR a transform function a that merges x relation z and y relation z to (x,y) relation z? I tried out scatterplot3d but it seems it would take a bit of work to get scatterplot3d to draw a curved surface. Lawrence

I would like to get the fortran code for the functions locpol and dpill in the kernsmooth library , the purpose is to incorporate other selection criterion for the bandwidth in which a varying bandwidths are replaced instead of the constant bandwidth. I will send you back the improved version as soon as I get the fortran code for the upper mention functions. ((LOCPOLY and DPILL )))

Dear Sir, Madam, or to whom this may concern, my name is Jan Failenschmid and I am a Ph.D. student at Tilburg University. For my project I have been looking into different types of kernel regression estimators and corresponding R functions. While comparing different functions I noticed that stats::ksmooth returned different estimates for the same bandwidth as other kernel regression estimators

Hi people, I am new in this list and could not find a FAQ for it in particular, furthermore I could not find my question answered in the official R FAQ or docs. I have simply something like this: > f<-approxfun(data[,1],data[,2]) and f is: > f function (v) .C("R_approx", as.double(x), as.double(y), as.integer(n), xout = as.double(v), as.integer(length(v)),

Apologies in advance if my comments don't help, in which case, no need to respond, but I noted in ?ksmooth: "bandwidth the bandwidth. The kernels are scaled so that their quartiles (viewed as probability densities) are at ? 0.25*bandwidth." So, could this be a source of the discrepancies you cited? Given that ?ksmooth explicitly says: "Note: This function was implemented for

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'm using R 1.40 on MacOS X X.1.2 (installed via the fink package manager). To upgrade my installed packages, I tried to use update.packages() today. All went well for most packages, with the exception of KernSmooth and cluster. In both cases, libraries were not found although I think they are present. Here's what happened: ---------------------------------- >

hello R-users.could you please help me on this one?i have 2 vectors x1 and y1 and both have the same size.i want to use the locpoly function from the kernsmooth package in order to estimate a regression function.at each estimation i want to leave one observation out,and i want my estimation to be at the observation i left out.i tried : for (j in 1:length(x1)) +

Dear R-devel, I'm working on Prof. Loader's new version of locfit to try to get it pass R CMD check. I'm almost there, but I have a problem with some Rd files that I hope some one can help me resolve. Here's an example: In the package there's a function called locfit.censor(). This function can be used in a few different ways: locfit.censor(x, y, cens, ...)

I am trying to reproduce Figure 10.5 of Loader's book: Local Regression and Likelihood. The code provided in the book does not seem to work. I have managed (a while ago) to get the accompanied R-code for the figures in the book (file called lffigs.R) from somewhere - cannot find it on the web anymore. The code in the .R script file does not work either. Could anybody please direct me in
