Hi there, I'm plotting some glass RI values just by plotting plot(x) then I put on my lowess smoother lines(lowess(x)) now I want to put on some 95% Confidence Interval bands of the lowess smoother, but don't know how??

I'm using this code to plot a smoothed line. These two columns of data really represent 4 groups and I'd like to plot a separate line for each group but have them all in the same plot. The R-Docs for lowess do not seem to indicate some type of "GROUPS=var_name" option. What would be the syntax for this? plot(AWGT ~ lipid ) lines(lowess(lipid , AWGT, f=.8)) -- Dean

As I've mentioned a number of times. I find it very useful to have lowess() become a generic function so that a lowess.formula() can be defined. Below is a patch that makes both changes, as well as updating the corresponding help documentation. Gregory R.

Dear all, To draw a lowess line on a plot was a piece of cake; to draw a loess line, however, seems not that easy. Is the loess plotting implemented at all in relation to the loess function, or do I have to look in add-on packages? Thanks, Marcin

I am trying to change the attributes of the lowess lines fit to an xyplot command, but have been unsuccessful in my search of the online help. Right now, both the points and lowess line come out in the same color (blue). I am unsure how I can change the properties of the lowess line separately. xyplot ( SnowLineElevation ~ Year | Model, data = data, ylim = c(0,1800), type =

The lowess() help page refers to documentation in "src/appl/lowess.doc". This was moved to "src/library/stats/src/lowess.doc" in 2007.

Hi, A lowess method is defined in our package for one of our S4 classes. To explicitely define the generic this is being used if (!isGeneric("lowess")) setGeneric("lowess", useAsDefault = lowess) This works fine for many other methods inherited from various R packages. In this case a warning is issued in R CMD check: * checking R code for possible problems ... NOTE

Hi all, I am trying to do something simple, but which is deviling me. I want to add an up-arrow to the x-axis, pointing to a specific location on the axis. I want the arrow to be as large as possible. Here is where I'm at with my code: #this part if from the ?plot example: require(stats) plot(cars) lines(lowess(cars)) #I am trying to use mtext to add the arrow... but I don't know how

Hi! How can I fit a loess curve to an array (384 x 2). How can I obtain the equation for thi fi?

Hi R users, Imagine the folowing data frame 1990 1991 1992 1 5 20 6 2 15 1 11 3 3 14 22 4 20 8 55 5 10 3 14 Is there a way to build a graphic in which: - 1 curve represents the observation 1 during 1990 & 1992 - 1 curve represents the observation 2 during

Hello Masters, I run the loess() function to obtain local weighted regressions, given lowess() can't handle NAs, but I don't improve significantly my situation......, actually loess() performance leave me much puzzled....

Hi, all, I want to use lowess(x, y) where x and y are vectors of length of 4000+. In fact, x and y are log of some vectors. So, some of the elements are NaN. lowess() can not take away those elements then do the fitting. It will give the error message and do nothing. 1. Can anybody tell me how to get rid of those NaN's and use lowess()? 2. How to get the LOWESS fitting values for any

I have a dataset, a time series comprising count data at five minute intervals. These are the number of people who voted at a particular voting place during a recent election. The next step is to smooth the data and estimate a demand vs time-of-day function; the problem is of interest in preventing long lines at voting places. I am using the R Project software. However, I am not a statistician,

hi: apologies for taking up everyone's time. my problem is probably documented somewhere, but I again cannot find it. (which reminds me: I cannot find a search engine that allows me to search the archives of this very useful mailing list.) * it seems that lines(lowess()) fails to plot certain line segments. (and, what does it do at the x-min and x-max of a data set?) Rather than

Dear Colleagues: I need to make a graphic that uses the Nimbus rather than Helvetica font family so that the font can be embedded in the encapsulated postscript file. This is to satisfy a requirement from a journal for electronic submission of figures. I do the following: postscript('lowess.eps', onefile=FALSE, pointsize=18, horizontal=FALSE, family='NimbusSan')

Hi, I have a scatter plot of the variables GNI and Lifeexp (Gross National Income and Life Expectancy, both metric). So I plotted them and I want to add a regression line and a lowess line. I use lowess and not loess because I have missing values. My code: plot(GNI,Lifeexp) abline(lm(Lifeexp~GNI), col="red") y.loess<-loess(Lifeexp~GNI,na. action = na.exclude)

For some reason the following code is not plotting as I want it to. I want to plot a "loess" line plotted over a scatter plot. I get a jumble, with lines connecting all the points. I had a similar problem with "lowess". I solved that by dropping "NA" rows from the data columns. Please help. library(stats) attach(gini_pci_wdi_narm) plot(ny_gnp_pcap_pp_kd, si_pov_gini)
