[R] Creating a co-occurence matrix

2003-07-01 Thread Greg Blevins
Hello R experts,

I have a data.frame which has a series of 30 variables that are each coded
1,0--1
if a behavior is engaged in, 0 otherwise.

The data.frame looks like this:

var1 var2 ...var30
Respondent 1
Respondent 2
etc

I would like to create a matrix (or at least a half-matrix) as follows:

  var1  var2 ...var30
var1
var 2
.
.
var 30

where the number at each intersection is the number of people who engaged in
both behaviors.  I could run a whole bunch of tables and input the data by
hand into a new matrix, but I was wondering if there is a way to do this via
a program/function (I looked at daisy, but concluded this function would
not handle this).

Any help would be appreciated!

Re: [R] R CMD check

The error was simply a missing end-of-line character in the last line in 
one of the R files.

Hi there,

First off, thanks to everyone who has helped me so far.  Sorry to keep 
pestering you all.

I'm including my code here, and I will comment down it where it is that I am 
having problems figuring out how to write this damn thing.



temper - scan(temp2.dat, na.strings = ., list(Day=0, Temp=0))

comp- cbind (Day, Temp, Vc, Vr)

bio-NULL
M- length(Day) #number of days iterated
for (i in 1:M)

+ 
+ weight- function(Day)
+ {
+ W-NULL
+ 	if (Day[i]==1) {W[i] - Wo}
+ elseif (Day[i]1) {W[i] - ((bio[i-1,1]*bio[i-1,9])/Ef)
+ 	}
+ 	W
+ }
+ 
+ W-weight(Day)

The problem, as many of you have already identified, is right here. I hope I 
finally have the syntax right, but even if the if else is coded properly, I 
don't think R can find the values in the second condition I list. I need W in 
each step of the iteration to change slightly, based on the mess of 
calculations below (which are using parameters that I have already specified).  
After all the calculations are made, I hope to get values in bio[i,1] and bio
[i,9] corresponding to the iteration that just occured, then return to the top 
of the loop to combine them into the value of W for the next iteration. What I 
think is happening here is that R is looking for values in the condition before 
they are actually there- the way I've written it, they can't be there until I 
get past the conditional step.  Which means I am coding this all wrong.  That 
said, I'm not sure how else to do it;  the value of W in the next iteration is 
dependent on the values of Gr and W in the previous iteration, with the 
exception of the first one (Day=1).  I've tried defining bio as 

bio-matrix(NA, ncol=9, nrow=366)

but that doesn't help either.

Perhaps my rbind at the end of the file is incorrect? I think maybe I'm getting 
mixed up between calculating vectors and values-- should I be specifying [i] 
for everything below where I am now specifying vecotrs?

+ 
+ C- p*CA*(W^CB)*((comp[,3]^Xc)*(exp(Xc*(1-comp[,3]*Pc

Re: [R] Fitting inter-arrival time data

 Unfortunately, the data are *non-negative*, not strictly positive. Zero is

Not really. Zero+ is the value with highest density in a (negative) exponential 
distribution, which implies that you should have *no* observed zero's from that
distribution.

If you have a non-negligible fraction of 0 values, then your data are reasonably 
described as  having a mixed distribution: 
  (1) a discrete component at 0, and 
  (2) a continuous positive component.

Kernel (or similar) density estimation is appropriate for the continuous component
only.  Notice that the same remark applies to any procedure (parametric or 
non-parametric, using mixtures, etc.) which is based on continuous components only. 

It *looks* that a wise procedure is to separate out the discrete and the continuos
component of your data, and handle them separately.  At the end you can merge
the two parts into
 Y = p * 0 + (1-p) * X
where p is the proportion of 0's, and X represents the  continuous component of
the random variable.

best wishes,

Only that you will need to have package nlme available to re-load the 
workspace.  I think these warnings have been removed in the development 
version of R.

I've removed the cause of such messages with the MASS function glm.nb() 
recently, and I guess nlme is doing similar things.  The cause was that 
negative.binomial() created a family of functions, which thereby had the 
body of negative.binomial as their environment and hence the MASS 
namespace in its environment.  As the latter was a minor nuisance, I have
manipulated the environments.

I must amend myself... what I should have written is
   Y = I * 0 + (1-I) * X
where I is a Bernoulli random variable with probability p of success (i.e. 1)

Well, my questions were:

Still not answered yet, AFAICS.

 - 'Which function has been applied and generated that error message?'

Still not answered yet, AFAICS.

You have send us a self written function, but not a reproducible example 
that helps to discover the error message. And this function does *not* 
generate the error message, but perhaps a function called within your 
function. Further on:
- You are using a function ppp() I don't know anything about.
- (At least) The line
 spCol - t(trees[spColNam])
   should generate a syntax error ...

So, please use the debugging tools to find out which function produces 
the error message (e.g. via traceback()) and specify *reproducible* 
examples that are as short as possible.

We cannot help as long as you are concealing the relevant information.

[R] Computations slow in spite of large amounts of RAM.

2003-07-01 Thread Huiqin Yang
Hi all,

I am a beginner trying to use R to work with large amounts of
oceanographic data, and I find that computations can be VERY slow.  In
particular, computational speed seems to depend strongly on the number
and size of the objects that are loaded (when R starts up).  The same
computations are significantly faster when all but the essential
objects are removed.  I am running R on a machine with 16 GB of RAM,
and our unix system manager assures me that there is memory available
to my R process that has not been used.

1.  Is the problem associated with how R uses memory?  If so, is there
some way to increase the amount of memory used by my R process to get

For example if i=1 and step gives us the model M~A,

RE: [R] Computations slow in spite of large amounts of RAM.

2003-07-01 Thread Liaw, Andy
 From: Huiqin Yang [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] 
 
 Hi all,
 
 I am a beginner trying to use R to work with large amounts of 
 oceanographic data, and I find that computations can be VERY 
 slow.  In particular, computational speed seems to depend 
 strongly on the number and size of the objects that are 
 loaded (when R starts up).  The same computations are 
 significantly faster when all but the essential objects are 
 removed.  I am running R on a machine with 16 GB of RAM, and 
 our unix system manager assures me that there is memory 
 available to my R process that has not been used.
 
 1.  Is the problem associated with how R uses memory?  If so, 
 is there some way to increase the amount of memory used by my 
 R process to get better performance?

Is R compiled as 64-bit?  If not, it won't be able to use more than 4GB of
RAM (that's my understanding, anyway).

R keeps objects in memory, so if you are working with large amount of data,
it's a good habit to keep only the absolute essential objects in the
workspace, and save() and rm() things you don't need for the computation.

 
 The computations that are particularly slow involve looping 
 with by().  The data are measurements of vertical profiles of 
 pressure, temperature, and salinity at a number of stations, 
 which are organized into a dataframe p.1 (1925930 rows, 8 
 columns: id, p, t, and s, etc.), and the objective is to get 
 a much smaller dataframe and the unique 
 values for ID is 1409 with the minimum and maximum pressure 
 for each profile.  The slow part is:
 
 h.maxmin - by(p.1,p.1$id,function(x){
  data.frame(id=x$id[1],
   maxp=max(x$p),
   minp=min(x$p))})
 
 2.  Even with unneeded data objects removed, this is very 
 slow.  Is there a faster way to get the maximum and minimum values?

Why do you need to use by(), and why have the function return a data frame
containing only one row?  Here's an experiment on my 900MHz PIII laptop:

 n - 1e5
 dat - data.frame(id = sort(sample(LETTERS, n, replace=TRUE)),
+   p = rnorm(n))
 
 
 system.time(h.maxmin - by(dat, dat$id,function(x) {
+   data.frame(id=x$id[1], maxp=max(x$p), minp=min(x$p))}))
[1] 2.75 0.01 2.78   NA   NA
 system.time(junk - tapply(dat$p, dat$id, function(x) range(x)))
[1] 0.12 0.01 0.13   NA   NA

If you want to coerce the result to a data frame with id as row names and
min and max as the two variables, you can do:

  junk.dat - as.data.frame(do.call(rbind, junk))

HTH,
Andy

[R] Working memory full

2003-07-01 Thread Peter van Rijn
I have a question concerning the working memory used by R.

I am running a simulation job (a function which replicates a simulation) which calls 
several other functions that I have written. Something like this:

name1-function(number of replications){
for(i in 1:replication)
name2(parameters)
name3()
# get results and aggregate
open..
write(..., append=T)
}
}

name2-function(parameters){
# simulate data
... 
# save data and parameters
write...
}

name3-function(){
# get data and parameters
open...
# analyse data
...
# save results
write.. 
}

name1(100)


However, after a couple of replications working memory seems to be full.

Error: cannot allocate vector of size ...Kb
In addition: Warning message: 
Reached total allocation of 126Mb: see help(memory.size)

This puzzles me, because all arrays (Note: large arrays, i.e., 500x500) are defined 
locally (within each function) and redefined every replication (the meta-function). So 
my question is: Why is R eating up my working memory while I think I am redefining the 
same (local) arrays? Any thoughts on how this can be circumvented?

Thanks,

Peter.

You could try setting a large nsize and vsize using

I think it would be faster to use

h.maxmin - tapply(p.1$p, p.1$id, range)

In the call to by you are subsetting the entire data frame and that
probably means taking at least one copy of that frame.  If you use
tapply on only the relevant columns you will use much less space.

 2.  Even with unneeded data objects removed, this is very slow.  Is
 there a faster way to get the maximum and minimum values?

See above.

Re: [R] crossed random effects

2003-07-01 Thread Spencer Graves
	  Have you studied Pinhiero and Bates (2000) Mixed Effects Models in S 
and S-Plus (Springer)?

	  Also, have you tried simplifying your lme call until you get 
something that works, then start adding back terms in various 
configurations until it breaks?

	  Have you tried to compute how many coefficients are estimated in both 
fixed and random terms and evaluate whether all are estimable?  For 
example, with 2 factors at 2 levels each, if you don't have all 4 
possible combinations, you can't estimate the interaction -- even if you 
have thousands of replications of each.

	  Finally, you can always try to read the code.  I've learned a lot 
about S-Plus / R by doing that -- and solved a lot of my own problems 
that way.

hope this helps.  spencer graves

Yes, it is: what other editor can you guarantee to be on all Windows

On NTEmacs I use gnuclient, which BTW will start up an emacs if one is not

1) Those are not errors, but warnings.  You need to use warnings() (with 
the brackets) to see what they were.  By typing warnings (without the 
brackets) you are asking R to print out the source code for the 
warnings() function.

2) try ?options and see option digits in that help file

Hope that helps a bit,

[R] lines and legend

2003-07-01 Thread Anna H. Pryor
When I am trying to put a legend on a plot where I am using lines, R just 
ignores it.  I can do it with boxplot or plot, but just not with lines.  Am I 
doing something wrong?  Maybe I am just making a mistake?

Yes, I am using plot and then lines.  The legend is just not appearing.  I am 
using the coordinates of the legend (150,4) which work on boxplot and plot.  
I have not looked at the output of par (I don't know how to) to see if they 
are in the region.  I assumed if they worked for plot and boxplot they would 
also for lines.

Re: [R] lines and legend

2003-07-01 Thread Sundar Dorai-Raj
Hi Anna,
What I often do before calling legend is reset the user-coordinates to 
the unit square. As in:

plot(x = 1:100, y = 1:100, col = red)
par(usr = c(0, 1, 0, 1))
# now place legend in upper left hand corner
legend(x = 0.02, y = 0.98,
  legend = test, col = red, pch = 1)
Hope this is helpful,

Sundar

Hi,

Have you specified the lty and/or col in legend?  For example, are the 
following codes work?
  plot(1:10, type = n)
  lines(c(1, 10), c(1, 10))
  lines(c(1, 9), c(0, 10), col = red)
  legend(8, 2, col = c(black, red), lty = 1, 
 legend = c(FOO, FRED))

Re: [R] lines and legend

2003-07-01 Thread apjaworski

Anna,

I found this quite useful in positioning a legend:

plot(1:10, 1:10)
legend(locator(1), A legend)

Now, go to the plot window and click your left mouse where you want the
upper left corner of the legend to appear.  Ithink, this should work no
matter what your coordinate system is.

Hope this helps,

Andy

Re: [R] crossed random effects

2003-07-01 Thread Sarah Mclean
Hi,

thanks for the advice. I have looked at the Pinheiro
and Bates book and I've tried simplifying my model.

I've narrowed the problem down to having mum nested
within pop. If I run the analysis on each population
separately, the interaction between mo and su with mum
works fine.

If I could analyse all of the pops at once this would
be preferable because I have multiple responses and
pops to test so it would take a bit of time. I'm
hoping there is any easier way.

Thanks 
Sarah

Re: [R] symbol size on a plot

2003-07-01 Thread Paul Murrell
Hi

Philippe Hupé wrote:
 Hi,

 I would like to get from a plot the size of the symbols plotted.
 Imagine I have the following plot function :
 plot(1:2,1:2, pch=15, cex=4)
 I would like the get the values SIZE1 and SIZE2 so that if I plot the
 following rectangle :
 rect(1.5,1.5, 1.5+SIZE1, 1.5+SIZE2) then the size of this square is
 exactely the same as the one of the symbols that have been plotted.

 Thanks for any idea.
This is a bit tricky.  The size of plotting symbols is loosely based on 
the current cex setting (i.e., the size of text), BUT there are some 
magic multipliers applied within the C code to determine the exact 
size so that they look nice.

There are some standard calculations you can perform to get close to the 
symbol size, but you have to do some fiddling to get exact and it will 
depend on which symbol you are plotting.  Here's an example for the 
default pch=1 circles ...

plot(1:10)
size1 - (par(cin)[2]/par(pin)[1])*
  (par(usr)[2] - par(usr)[1]) * 0.5 * par(cex) * 0.375
size2 - (par(cin)[2]/par(pin)[2])*
  (par(usr)[4] - par(usr)[3]) * 0.5 * par(cex) * 0.375
rect(5 - size1, 5 - size2, 5 + size1, 5 + size2)
... the 0.375 multiplier is an example of a magic multiplier.  I got 
it from the following bits of C code in R/src/main/graphics.c

	#define RADIUS	0.375

	#define CMAG	1.0

#define GSTR_0  Rf_dpptr(dd)-cra[1] * 0.5 *
Rf_gpptr(dd)-ipr[0] * Rf_gpptr(dd)-cex
case 1: /* S octahedron ( circle) */
xc = CMAG * RADIUS * GSTR_0;
Further inspection of the C code would give you similar minor fiddles 
for the other plotting symbols.

Re: [R] crossed random effects

2003-07-01 Thread Spencer Graves
	  How many mum's and pop's do you have, and how many observations do 
you have of each mum-pop combination?  If you want mum nested within 
pop, do I infer correctly that each mum has mated with only one pop, but 
that each pop may have offspring by multiple mums?  The table of mum-pop 
combinations might help explain why you got, Error in chol((value + 
t(value))/2) : non-positive definite matrix in chol.

	  If you can get an answer ignoring pop, then you might be able to get 
an answer with pop as a separate random term without specifying mum 
nested within pop.  Also, I'd check very carefully the specification of 
nesting:  I've messed that up more than once, and I'm bald now, because 
I tore all my hair out before I figured out what I was doing wrong. 
(Well, there is a slight exageration there.)  Have you tried a very 
simple toy problem (or a published example) with nesting to make sure 
you can get the correct answer?

hope this helps.
