Hi, Ben:
Which chapter in which of Ramsay's books?
For his most recent book ("Functional Data Analysis with R and
Matlab", with Giles Hooker and your's truly), there is one script file
for each chapter with names like "fdarm-ch01.R", ... "fdarm-ch11.R".
These script files "reproduce nearly all the examples in the book
including all but one of the 76 figures" (according to what I wrote for
back cover). The preface tells you how to find those script files:
system.file('scripts', package='fda')
[1] "c:/Users/sgraves/R/R-2.9.1/library/fda/scripts"
Obviously, the answer is the path on my installation; the answer
you get should tell you where to look on the computer (and start-up
sequence) you are using.
This same scripts directory contains similar partial scripts for
"Functional Data Analysis" and "Applied Functional Data Analysis". If
you'd care to send me updates to any of those partial scripts, I can see
that they are included in the package to make those examples easier for
others in the future.
Hope this helps.

The error message is pretty clear: regardless of what
*you* think, R says that 'isi' is not numeric.
Are you sure that 'isi' is not a *factor* object?
I'm willing to bet that it is.
Use str() to check your data.

Hi all,
I'm having major issues with smoothing my functional data
I'm referring to Jim Ramsay's
examples in his books. The following error message keeps appearing,
despite all my data being numeric.... can anyone kindly offer any
suggestions?
isi - vector of argument values - i.e. the independent variable of
the curves
rlz - data array
TMSfdPar - functional data parameter.
TMSfdPar = fdPar(TMSbasis, 4, 0.01)
TMSfdsmooth = smooth.basis(isi, rlz, TMSfdPar)
Error in smooth.basis(isi, rlz, TMSfdPar) : 'argvals' is not numeric.
I don't understand why the error message keeps popping up. I've tried
playing around with Jim Ramsay's datasets and I think my data is
organised in a similar manner to his, so can't understand what's
going on.... oh, the frustration!
Thanks in advance,
Ben
