[R] caret for non-numeric data

2011-06-16 Thread Yang Zhang
caret has many useful preprocessing facilities for numeric predictors, such as removing near-zero-variance predictors, removing correlated predictors, removing linear combinations, centering/scaling, and Box-Cox transformations. However, these don't work for factor data, which is common in many

Re: [R] When models and anova(model) disagree...

2011-06-16 Thread Frank Harrell
Without seeing the model I'm not clear on the cause. In general it is not very useful to compute 1 d.f. tests for parameters that represent only part of a meaningful hypothesis. Note that anova.lrm computes Wald statistics, which are subject to the Hauck-Donner effect (which may not be the cause

Hi, You did not specify what assumptions you can make about xf and xg (such as will they have identical lengths and is it possible both could contain nonmissing values in the same element?), but this seems a straightforward approach in your little example: index - is.na(xf) xf[index] - xg[index]
