Hey, R-listers I am a new user of R and just found the package of PCURVE which can estimate principal curve for arbitrary dimensional data set. Now I have some 2-Dimensional data set X, which is stored as an Nx2 matrix in data.txt file and looks as following: -1.5551 2.4183 1.0051 1.0102 0.90644 0.82163 1.3248 1.7551 -1.3626 1.8568 -1.3554 1.8371 0.039396 0.0015521 -0.99622 0.99245 0.2314 0.053544 1.4127 1.9956 1.3814 1.9083 0.83861 0.70326 -1.045 1.092 -1.8073 3.2665 0.54591 0.29801 -0.69022 0.47641 -0.7084 0.50183 0.12357 0.015271 0.80539 0.64865 0.25549 0.065274 0.68935 0.47521 1.7864 3.1911 0.6431 0.41358 0.14709 0.021635 -0.5128 0.26296 0.49692 0.24693 1.3053 1.7039 -0.63626 0.40483 1.7643 3.1126 0.3945 0.15563 1.2391 1.5354 0.73498 0.5402 1.023 1.0465 0.16561 0.027426 -0.015812 0.00025002 1.6118 2.5978 -0.60822 0.36993 -0.45553 0.2075 1.7689 3.129 -1.5722 2.4718 0.24103 0.058093 1.1138 1.2406 -0.7679 0.58967 -0.19286 0.037195 0.025852 0.00066834 -1.2959 1.6793 1.3295 1.7675 -0.80465 0.64746 1.1729 1.3758 0.4756 0.2262 So how could I use the PCURVE to get the estimated principal curve? I tried, but alwasy got some error message.
> x <- as.matrix(read.table("data.txt")); > s <- pcurve(x, plot.init = FALSE, use.loc = TRUE); "Empty row or column (or negative sum) in table Error in xy.coords(x, y) : x and y lengths differ" So would you please give me a point on how to use it in R correctly? Thanks for your time and help.
