similar to: multidimensional scaling with long form data

A student of mine wants to use R to do some nonmetric multidimensional scaling. According to the R FAQ, there's a package called pcurve that computes multidimensional scaling solutions, but I was not able to locate it the contrib page (I am a Windows user with R version 1.4.1). Can anyone tell me whether it is possible to do nonmetric multidimensional scaling with R, and if so, how? John

I sent a query to R-Help about the availability of nonmetric multidimensional scaling (MDS) algorithms in R. I would like to thank Tony Rossini, Jonathan Baron, Sundar Dorai-Raj, and Brian Ripley for helpful replies. The gist of the replies is that isoMDS in the MASS library provides Kruskal's method for nonmetric MDS, sammon in the MASS library provides Sammon's nonlinear mapping method

Dear R-help members, I am trying to plot annotate a filled contours plot (with filled.contour) with a grid of points. I have read ways of annotating it with individual points but not with grids in another matrix. Any ideas? Thank you very much.

Hello I will be applying MDS (actually Isomap) to make a psychological "concept map" of the similarities between N concepts. I would like to scale to a large number of concepts, however, the resulting N*(N-1) pairwise similarities is prohibitive for a user survey. I'm thinking of giving people random subsets of the pairwise similarities. Does anyone have recommendations for this

Dear R-helpers, I am running metaMDS in the vegan package, which uses isoMDS in MASS, to perform Nonmetric Multidimentional Scaling (NMDS). I have seen some authors report a p-value for the NMDS ordination based on randomization of the dataset. As I understand it this is meant to compare the stress in your dataset to multiple runs of randomized data. I do not see a way to perform such a test in

Hello, We are trying to find a function to compute "stress" in our multidimensional scaling analysis of a dissimilarity matrix. We've used "dist()" to create the matrix and "cmdscale()" for the scaling. In order to determine the number of dimensions we would like to plot stress vs. dimensions. However, we cannot find a pre-made command. It seems that other

Con parse_number sacaria todos los numeros de la columna, pero lo que busco es sacar solo los que empiezan por AV y descartar el resto. De todas maneras muchas gracias, le voy a dar otra vuelta. ________________________________ De: Juan Carlos Lopez Mesa <jclopez5 en unal.edu.co> Enviado: martes, 22 de septiembre de 2020 21:32 Para: Samura . <tontito82 en hotmail.com> Cc: r-help-es

Dear UserR's, The smacof package (see also our PsychoR repository on http://r-forge.r-project.org/projects/psychor/) is uploaded on CRAN. This package provides the following approaches of multidimensional scaling (MDS) based on stress minimization by means of majorization (smacof): - Simple smacof on symmetric dissimilarity matrices - smacof for rectangular matrices (unfolding models) -

Hi, I am stuck in one problem when doing nonmetric multidimensional scaling. I use the function 'metaMDS' in the package 'vegan' to work on the presence/absence community data. The problem is when two samples are identical (dissimilarity = 0), metaMDS cannot work with zero dissimilarity. I don't want to delete the duplicates as they are true samples from different locations.

Hello! Very often one can hear that MDS usually ends with two-dimensional solution. Of course, there are methods, like Scree-test (proposed by Kruskal and Wish, 1981), to determine optimal number of dimensions. However, I am trying to find references to this two-dimensional gold-standard. Can anyone point me to authors which explicitly states that two-dimensions are typical and easiest to

Hi all, Imagine I have a matrix and the first colum is a list that repeats the same names, I want to sum the second column on each unique name on first column. Imagine this: Pepe 2 Pepe 3 Pepe 4 Jose 2 Jose 5 Manuel 4 Manuel 2 I want to make a new matrix that calculates and recognizes that there are 3 different names ans sum second column. But a priori I don´t know the list of the different

After updating my test AD DC from samba version 4.5.5 to 4.6.0 and running testparm as asvised, I get the error idmap range not specified for domain '*' ERROR: Invalid idmap range for domain *! After I get trhe dump of the service definitions, I notice that there is a line in the [global] section: idmap config * : backend - tdb However, my smb.conf doesn't contain any such line

Hola: Como dice Carlos, algo así, por ejemplo: transforma <- function(df) sapply(df, function(x) ifelse(x%in%c("x1","x2","x3"), "prueba1",ifelse(x%in%c("x4","x5","x6"),"prueba2",x))) > transforma(df1)       col1  [1,] "prueba1"  [2,] "prueba1"  [3,] "x11"  [4,]

Yo copio y pego este código y me sale correctamente. Se me ocurre que pueda deberse a la versión de R ¿cuál usas?

Hi, I need to run a PCoA (PCO) for a data set wich has both positive and negative values for variables. I  could not find any distancecoefficient other than euclidean distace running for the data set. Are there any other coefficient works with negtive values.Also I cannot get summary out put (the eigen values) for PCO as for PCA.   Thanks. Dilshan [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Gracias Marcelino. Si, (i in 1:length(GT)), lo he utilizado mil veces, pero se me sigue olvidando de una vez a otra. Lo iba a mirar, pero me centré primero en que me hiciera bien el mapa. He probado el for y me da este error: Error in aes(x = lon, y = lat, color = get(GT[i]), size = 2) + scale_colour_gradient(low = ("white"), : non-numeric argument to binary operator
