[R] question about surf.gls(spatial package) with NA/NaN/inf values
Hi all, I need to fit a trend surface to a 3D-dataset with the surf.gls() function but my data contain missing values. There is just 2 NA in a total of 360 data points but I can't suppresse the variable associated with these NA values to the analysis. The problem is surf.gls can't manage with Na/NaN/inf values, so I wanted to know if a similar function in R can do it. I precise that there's no replicate in the (preliminary test) data so I can't estimate these values them easily.

[R] Best datatype for time-series with irregular ocurrencies
Hello, Does someone has experience working with time-series where the ocurrencies do not happen at regular time spaces? In one day I can have 20 ocurrencies and in the following day I can have the double. ts datatype must have regular time spaces. What is the best way to put the data if I want to use forecasting methods as Holt-Winters, NN or SVM? To put data and time in different variables? If in one variable it would be of Date datatype?

[R] Massive clustering job?
Hi, I have ~40,000 rows in a database, each of which contains an id column and 20 additional columns of count data. I want to cluster the rows based on these count vectors. Their are ~1.6 billion possible 'distances' between pairs of vectors (cells in my distance matrix), so I need to do something smart. Can R somehow handle this? My first thought was to index the database with something that makes nearest neighbour lookup more efficient, and then use single linkage clustering. Is this kind of index implemented in R (by default when using single linkage)? Also 'grouping' identical vectors is very easy. I tried making groups more fuzzy by using a hashing function over the count vectors, but my hash was too crude. Any way to do fuzzy grouping in R which scales well? For example, removing identical vectors gives me ~30,000 rows (and ~900 million pairs of distances). As an example of how fast I can group, the above query took 0.13 seconds in mysql (using an index over every element in the vector). However, if I tried to calculate a distance between every pair of non identical vectors (lets say I can calculate ~1000 eutlidian distances per second) it would take me ~10 days just to calculate the distance matrix. Sorry for all the information. Any suggestions on how to cluster such a huge dataset (using R) would be appreciated.

Re: [R] Massive clustering job?
Dear Dan, I would think about transforming your columns in such a way (square root, log?) that methods operating on n*p matrices and assuming roughly elliptical within-clusters distributions such as kmeans or clara, or, after dimension reduction, EMclust or fixmahal can be applied. Maybe you can even do that on untransformed data (take a look at the variable-wise distributions or 2-d scatterplots). You do not need a distance matrix then.

RE: [R] can R do the goodman modified multiple regression method?
Dear ronggui, If memory serves me right, this is a relatively early presentation for sociologists of loglinear models for contingency tables (in which all the variables are dichotomous). You can fit such a model in R as a generalised linear model using glm() or via the loglin() function. The latter, which works by iterative proportional fitting, will be more similar in approach to what's in the Goodman paper (but both produce ML estimates).

[R] TukeyHSD & Covariates
Dear R gurus, I have the following model: appcov.aov <- aov(yield ~ prevyield + trt + block) where prevyield is a continuous numeric covariate and trt and block are factors (yes, I did factor()!) Now, when I do a TukeyHSD, my diff's are all screwed up! For instance: treatment mean for treatmen "E" is 277.25 and for treatment "O" is 279.5, so I figure the diff O-E should be 2.25, but TukeyHSD says: diff lwrupr O-E -50.817101 -84.8112057 -16.822996 So I wonder where is that -50.8 coming from??? Anybody have a clue? Thanks a lot! PS: it works if I take prevyield (the covariate) out of the model, but the point is I need to analyse it with the covariate.

[R] how R outputs?
Hi.All and R developers: When I look into the R source code, I have a question.Since R has its own data structure(i.e. SEXP),how does it convert the result to the normal output after it has computed? For example,when I input, >abs(-3) I learned that in R's execution, the expression is parsed to a parse tree,and becomes a SEXP list. After "eval" function, the result is still a SEXP. But R outputs: [1] 3 The output is normal.So my question is how R makes its SEXP result into the normal result.Where can I find the place R makes this convertion in R's source code?Can anyone help me? thanks dongyuan xu __ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html

Measurements were carried out before and after the treatment. There was another 2-level factor included. The trouble is I can't take averages, and have to include the identity of each subject in each block. Can anyone help?

RE: [R] Massive clustering job?
It sounds like "clara" in package cluster might help. Regards, Matt Wiener -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dan Bolser Sent: Wednesday, December 15, 2004 6:37 AM To: R mailing list Subject: [R] Massive clustering job? Hi, I have ~40,000 rows in a database, each of which contains an id column and 20 additional columns of count data. I want to cluster the rows based on these count vectors. Their are ~1.6 billion possible 'distances' between pairs of vectors (cells in my distance matrix), so I need to do something smart. Can R somehow handle this? My first thought was to index the database with something that makes nearest neighbour lookup more efficient, and then use single linkage clustering. Is this kind of index implemented in R (by default when using single linkage)? Also 'grouping' identical vectors is very easy. I tried making groups more fuzzy by using a hashing function over the count vectors, but my hash was too crude. Any way to do fuzzy grouping in R which scales well? For example, removing identical vectors gives me ~30,000 rows (and ~900 million pairs of distances). As an example of how fast I can group, the above query took 0.13 seconds in mysql (using an index over every element in the vector). However, if I tried to calculate a distance between every pair of non identical vectors (lets say I can calculate ~1000 eutlidian distances per second) it would take me ~10 days just to calculate the distance matrix. Sorry for all the information. Any suggestions on how to cluster such a huge dataset (using R) would be appreciated.

Re: [R] how to fit a weighted logistic regression?
I was going to say ``Why not just use glm()?'', but when I tried the example given in the original message I got a different but similarly nervous-making warning: Warning in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : non-integer #successes in a binomial glm! Looking into the code I found that the warning originates in binomial()$initialize in the lines: m <- weights * y if (any(abs(m - round(m)) > 0.001)) warning("non-integer #successes in a binomial glm!") I also noticed that if y is given as a two column matrix (successes, and failures) then the check for non-integer values in y gets done without multiplying anything by the weights, and so y passes the check and no warning is issued. I.e. f1 <- glm(y~x,weights=w,family=binomial) causes a warning, but f2 <- glm(cbind(y,1-y)~x,weights=w,family=binomial) does not. The fits f1 and f2 appear to be the same, although they differ in the number of iterations, and by an order of e-8 in the coefficients and the scaled and unscaled covariance. So is that warning which arises in the ``f1'' case actually appropriate? cheers, Rolf Turner [EMAIL PROTECTED] ===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+=== Original message: > I tried lrm in library(Design) but there is always some error > message.

Re: [R] AUC for logistic regression [was: (no subject)]
What's AUC? If you mean AIC (Akaike Information Criterion), and if you fit logistic regression using "glm", the help file says that glm returns an object of class "glm", which is a list containing among other things an attribute aic. For example, suppose you fit a model as follows: fit <- glm(y~x, famil=binomial()...) Then fit$aic returns the AIC. You may also wish to consider anova and anova.glm. hope this helps. spencer graves [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Dear R-helper, I would like to compare the AUC of two logistic regression models (same population).

[R] using Hmisc and Design library
Hi all, I encountered a weird problem when using the Design and Hmisc libraries in S-Plus (it worked well in R). I have a data frame called "b", which has 3 columns: "time", "status" and "scores", a sample of the data frame is like: data frame "b": time status scores 1 27 0 -126.7 2 24 0 -135.6 3 30 0 -139.5 4 49 0 -137.6 5 27 0 -136.9 when I ran the following script using this data frame, even though no error message was produced, no fit object was generated: > library(Hmisc,T);library(Design,T) > dd <- datadist(b) > options(datadist='dd') > fit <- cph(Surv(time,status) ~ scores, data=b,surv=T, x=T, y=T) > fit Problem: Object "fit" not found, while calling subroutine S_agsurv2 Use traceback() to see the call stack actually data frame "b" has 177 rows, the script ran ok on the first 166 rows as a subset, but started to break down if subset of the first 177 rows were used as the input, or the first 166 rows plus 168th row, the data in those rows in "b" are: time status scores 165 172 0 -123.3 166 105 0 -138.4 167 166 0 -128.8 168 140 0 -114.2 169 163 0 -117.0 170 141 0 -115.8 Additionally, even if I only ran the script on the first 166 rows, I still can't generate a plot: > dd <- datadist(bbb[1:166,]) > options(datadist='dd') > fit <- cph(Surv(time,status) ~ scores, data=bbb[1:166,],surv=T, x=T, y=T) > fit Cox Proportional Hazards Model cph(formula = Surv(time, status) ~ scores, data = bbb[1:166, ], x = T, y = T, surv = T) Obs Events Model L.R. d.f.

RE: [R] AUC for logistic regression [was: (no subject)]
AUC means "Area Under the Curve" and is a common summary statistic for repeated measures experiments (e.g. repeated measurements of serum concentration of a drug in an individual)in PK/PD studies (pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic). I think the poster may actually mean "nonlinear regression for logistic models" rather than "logistic regression," which, of course, has a different statistical meaning. Hence nonlinear regression modeling for repeated measures is probably the issue here, for which nlme() is appropriate, I think. Alternatively, and perhaps somewhat less statistically desirable (though perhaps fairly standard in PK/PD modeling), one can use nls() or perhaps nlsList() to fit each individual's curve and compute the AUC's. So in any case, the answer appears to be "yes, you can use R" perhaps with add-ons to do what you want. -- Bert Gunter Genentech Non-Clinical Statistics South San Francisco, CA "The business of the statistician is to catalyze the scientific learning process." - George E.

Re: [R] AUC for logistic regression [was: (no subject)]
I believe that Roman is referring to AUC as the "Area Under Curve" from a Receiver Operating Characteristic. If this indeed your quantity of interest - it can be calculated in R. You can download code at: http://www.bioconductor.org/repository/release1.5/package/Win32/ and/or http://biostat.ku.dk/~bxc/SPE/library/ Check out the archives - I'm sure there is more there if you search "ROC" instead.

[R] main() in libR?
libR seems to include a main() function. Should it? I'm hoping this simpler question will get more of a response than my previous post about R a la carte :) The evidence that libR includes main() is two-fold. First, when I use nm, I see the _main defined. Second, when I run a program linked to libR, the main R shell takes over, even though I have my own main (in another library). Looking at the sources, it seems the only possible contributor of main() is src/main/Rmain.c. I wouldn't expect this in the library, and the documentation of the library (in "R Extensions") says you must supply your own main. I have tried to follow through the Makefile's, but the spot the library is built has not jumped out at me. I've encountered this with number of generations of R on a number of platforms (Debian Linux and OS X).

[R] hclust and heatmap - slightly different dendrograms?
Good afternoon, I ran heatmap and hclust on the same matrix x (strictly, I ran heatmap(x), and hclust(dist(t(x))), and realized that the two dendrograms were slightly different, in that the left-right arrangement of one pair of subclusters (columns) was reversed in the two functions (but all individual columns were grouped correctly). Looking through the code for heatmap as a most definite nonexpert, it seems to me that hclust is also invoked by heatmap. > heatmap function (x, Rowv = NULL, Colv = if (symm) "Rowv" else NULL, distfun = dist, hclustfun = hclust, add.expr, symm = FALSE, ... hcr <- hclustfun(distfun(x)) ddr <- as.dendrogram(hcr) hcc <- hclustfun(distfun(if (symm) x else t(x))) ddc <- as.dendrogram(hcc) I understand it is possible to add Rowv=NA and order the samples as per hclust, but I'm just wondering if there is a reason for this observation. Any pointers would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

Hierarchical clustering does NOT give an ordering for the clusters. It only gives the clustering, so order is not invariant.
