[R] creat list

2007-09-06 Thread livia

Hi, 

I have a list named lista, which has 50 vectors and each vector has the
length about 1200. I would like to creat a matrix out of lista. What I try
now is cbind(lista[[1]],lista[[2]],...,lista[[50]]). I guess there would be
an easy way of doing this. Could anyone give me some advice?

Hello, I would like to plot a histogram with title Return, and I would like
the font for the title to be Bold and the size to be 8( as in Excel).

I tried the following code, but it does not make any change. Could anyone
give me some advice?

hist (preturn, seq(-0.05,0.05,0.005),freq = FALSE, main=Return, font=2,
cex=8,xlab=return,xlim=c(-0.05,0.05))

Hello all, I am trying to use the garchFit function in the fSeries Package
to fit a Garch(1,1) Model with t distribution. I am using the following
codes.

fit - garchFit(~garch(1,1),data,cond.dist=dstd)
fitted(fit)

I was expecting the fitted(fit) would return the fitted volatility, but the
result turns out to be a series of repeated same value. I tried to change
the distribution to normal, and the same thing happened.

Could anyone give me some advice? Many thanks.

Re: [R] ECDF, distribution of Pareto, distribution of Normal

Thank you very much for your reply. I am afraid I have no idea what is wrong
with the pgpg function. The parameters are generated from pre-fitted GPD
distribution. 1.544 is the location parameter, 0.4373 is the scale parameter
and -0.2398 is the shape parameter.

Cound you please give me some hint?

 Hello all,

 I would like to plot the emperical CDF, normal CDF and pareto CDF in the
 same graph and I amusing the following codes. z is a vector and I just
 need the part when z between 1.6 and 3.

 plot(ecdf(z), do.points=FALSE, verticals=TRUE,
 xlim=c(1.6,3),ylim=c(1-sum(z1.6)/length(z), 1))

 x - seq(1.6, 3, 0.1)
 lines(x,pgpd(x, 1.544,0.4373,-0.2398), col=red)
   
 
 There is something wrong with your pgpd function, see ?pgpd for help and
 parameters... (I wonder how you got something plotted here...)
 
 
 y - seq(1.6, 3, 0.1)
 lines(y,pnorm(y, mean(z),sqrt(var(z))), col=blue)

 The emperical CDF and normal CDF look rather resonable, but the pareto
 CDF
 looks quite odd. I am not sure whether I plot the pareto CDF correctly
 e.g.
 in the right yaxs or any other mistake?

 At the same time, let t represents the vector whose values are larger
 than
 1.6(the part we want). If I implement the following codes and plot the
 emperical CDF and pareto CDF, the pareto CDF seems fit.

 plot(ecdf(t), do.points=FALSE, verticals=TRUE)
 x - seq(1.6, 3, 0.1)
 lines(x,pgpd(x, 1.544,0.4373,-0.2398), col=red)

 Could anyone give me some advice on this? Many thanks.

Hi, thank you very much for your reply. The function pgpd() is from the
package POT, and the 1.544 is the location parameter, 0.4477557 is the scale
parameter and -0.50113 is the shape parameter, which can be both negtive or

 livia,
 
 You seem to be struggling with the Pareto distribution... The above  
 code seems correct, but you do not say where you took the pdpd()  
 function from. This makes it harder for us to help you.
 
 In you other message (https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2007-July/ 
 136137.html) you quote a negative scale parameter. The Pareto I know  
 has strictly positive shape and scale parameters.
 
 Perhaps can you retry with functions ppareto() or pgenpareto() of  
 package actuar.

[R] Fraction ECDF

 Rather than subsetting the x, I'd just use xlim and ylim arguments to 
 plot() to change the range.  For example,
 
 plot(ecdf(x), do.points=FALSE, verticals=TRUE, xlim=c(1, max(x)), 
 ylim=c(1-sum(x1)/length(x), 1))

Re: [R] Loop and function

2007-07-05 Thread livia

I tried str(gpdlow(var[,i][var[,i](p[,i][[2]])) and it returns num [1:49]
-1.92 -1.69 -2.20 -1.65 -2.13 ...
It is the number when i=1, I guess it does not loop. In fact, the number
should be different when loop between i.

Thanks. Yes, gpdlow is indeed return a vector longer than one. The length of
the vector is different for i in 1:12, each equals to
length(var[,i][var[,i](p[,i][[2]]).

[R] EWMA in fMultivar

2007-07-03 Thread livia

Hello, I would like to use the function EWMA() in the fMultivar Package and I
have a series of data x, which is the returns series. Basically, I would
like to get the variance estimation using EWMA.

I am trying something like EWMA(x, lambda) and I have a couple of questions:

 
Should x be the returns series or price series in my case?

When I get the result, there are the same numbers of data points as in the
returns series. I was expecting there would be one less data points than the
original data series, or are they one period lagged data?

Could anyone give me some advice? Many thanks

 I don't have whatever package function 'vglm' comes from (did you
 follow the instructions in the last two lines of your post?), but you
 can fit a GPD and get fitted values for it by some such approach as
 this:
 
library(POT)
threshold - 0  # probably
para - fitgpd(ycf1, threshold, method=pwmu)$param
ycf1.fit - qgpd( ppoints(ycf1, a=0.44), threshold, para[1], para[2])
 
 Note that the above code contains my own preferences for fitting
 method and plotting positions: yours may differ.

fit=vglm(ycf1 ~ 1, pareto1(location=alpha), trace=TRUE, crit=c) 
fitted(fit) 

The result is 
fitted(fit)

[R] Pareto Distribution

2007-06-12 Thread livia

I would like to fit a Pareto Distribution and I am using the following codes. 

First, I thought the fitted (fit1) should be the fitted value for the data,
is it correct? As the result of the fitted turns out to be the same value.

fit=vglm(ycf1 ~ 1, pareto1(location=alpha), trace=TRUE, crit=c)
coef(fit, matrix=TRUE)
summary(fit)
fitted(fit)

Secondly, how can I plot the density for the fitted distribution?

Many thanks.

[R] plot histogram and print

2007-06-05 Thread livia

I have got a dataset with two factors, and I would like to print the
histograms of the variable return for each combination of the two factors.
I do not know how can I name the figure title to sth like main=alevel
blevel according to the data.

par(ask=TRUE)

myhistogram - function(x)
{
hist (x, freq = FALSE)
lines (density(x), col = red) 
rug (x)
}
tapply(return, list(a, b), myhistogram)

Could anyone help me with this? Many thanks.

[R] tapply histogram

2007-06-01 Thread livia

Dear members,

I would like to pass the histogram settings to each subset of the dataframe,
and generate a multiple figures graph.

First, can anyone tell me how to generate a multiple figures environment? I
am trying 

mfrow=c(2,4) and nothing appears.

Secondly, I want to pass the following function in tapply()

hist(x, freq=FALSE)
lines(density(x), col=red)
rug(x)

how can I manage it?

Many thanks
