[R] specific package to laply

2015-05-14 Thread Benjamin
Hi,

I have a batch jobs problem for parallel code without sudo.  When I try to
send a package to the different nodes, as follows:

.libPaths( c(.libPaths(),
 "/my/first/library",
 "/my/second/library")
  )
library(foreach)
library(iterators)
library(parallel)
library(doParallel)
library(rvest)
cl <- makeCluster(detectCores())
registerDoParallel(cl)
sites <- paste0("https://www.site",1:2,".com";)

html0 <- foreach(i=sites,.packages='rvest') %dopar% html(i)


I get the following output:

Error in e$fun(obj, substitute(ex), parent.frame(), e$data) :
  worker initialization failed: there is no package called ‘rvest’
Calls: %dopar% -> 

Presumably, I need a way to export my .libPaths() to the nodes.  Any
suggestions?

Thanks,
Benjamin

[R] party package: is cforest really bagging?

2015-12-15 Thread Benjamin
Hi all,

I'm using the "party" package to create random forest of regression trees. I've
created a ForestControl class in order to limit my number of trees (ntree),
of nodes (maxdepth) and of variables I use to fit a tree (mtry). One thing
I'm not sure of is if the cforest algo is using subsets of my training set
for each tree it generates or not.

I've seen in the documentation that it is bagging so I assume it should.
But I'm not sure to understand well what the "subset" input is in that
function.

I'm also puzzled by the results I get using ctree: when plotting the tree,
I see that all my variables of my training set are classified in the
different terminal tree nodes while I would have exepected that it only
uses a subset here too.

So my question is, is cforest doing the same thing as ctree or is it really
bagging my training set?

Thanks in advance for you help!

Ben

Re: [R] Package random forest: can corr.bias be harmful?

2013-06-21 Thread Benjamin
Hi, Christian.

It sounds like to the maintainer feels that the package needs improvements,
i.e., it may not function as expected.  However, you may contact him
directly using maintainer("randomForest").

Best,
Benjamin

[R] read.table(..., header == FALSE, colClasses = )

2017-10-23 Thread Benjamin Tyner

Hello

I noticed that starting with R version 3.3.0 onward, this generates a 
warning:


   > txt <- c("a", "3.14")
   > read.table(file = textConnection(txt), header = FALSE, colClasses 
= c(x = "character", y = "numeric"))


the warning is "not all columns named in 'colClasses' exist" and I guess 
the change was made in response to this?


   https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=16478

Regardless, I am wondering whether this is desirable, that as a result 
of the change, the code has become stricter about the presence of a 
(formerly) harmless names attribute. Or am I missing something?


Regards

Ben

Re: [R] read.table(..., header == FALSE, colClasses = )

Jeff,

Thank you for your reply. The intent was to construct a minimum 
reproducible example. The same warning occurs when the 'file' argument 
points to a file on disk with a million lines. But you are correct, my 
example was slightly malformed and in fact gives an error under R 
version 3.2.2. Please allow me to try again; in older versions of R,


   > read.table(file = textConnection("a\t3.14"), header = FALSE, 
colClasses = c(x = "character", y = "numeric"), sep="\t")

     V1   V2
   1  a 3.14

(with no warning). As of version 3.3.0,

   > read.table(file = textConnection("a\t3.14"), header = FALSE, 
colClasses = c(x = "character", y = "numeric"), sep="\t")

     V1   V2
   1  a 3.14
   Warning message:
   In read.table(file = textConnection("a\t3.14"), header = FALSE,  :
     not all columns named in 'colClasses' exist

My intent was not to complain but rather to learn more about best 
practices regarding the names attribute.


Regards

Ben

Re: [R] read.table(..., header == FALSE, colClasses = )

2017-10-24 Thread Benjamin Tyner
Yes, it makes sense now; lesson learned. Thank you both! Sometimes it 
seems that no matter how good the documentation, some useR will 
inevitably (ab)use the code in ways that were never intended by the 
authors. Then when the code and/or documentation changes, it is not 
always obvious to the useR whether the intent of the authors has 
changed, or whether the useR had just been "getting the right answer for 
the wrong reason" all along. In this particular case, the change was 
documented as stemming from a "new feature" (as opposed to a bugfix or 
more stringent argument checking) that might appear to be a non fully 
backwards compatible change. For example one might have the (apparently) 
bad habit of using col.names as a shortcut to rename headers on-the-fly ...


   > getRversion()
   [1] ‘3.2.2’

   > read.table(textConnection("x y\na 3.14"), header = TRUE, 
colClasses = c(x = "character", y = "numeric"), col.names = c("foo", "bar"))

     foo  bar
   1   a 3.14

but indeed, the names attribute has zero effect on the result:

   > read.table(textConnection("x y\na 3.14"), header = TRUE, 
colClasses = c(y = "character", x = "numeric"), col.names = c("foo", "bar"))

     foo  bar
   1   a 3.14

so I agree it is good that we are checking for that now.

Ben

which is a nice attitude, thank you.

An even shorter MRE (as header=FALSE is default, and the default
sep="" works, too):


tt <- read.table(textConnection("a 3.14"), colClasses = c(x="character", 
y="numeric"))

Warning message:
In read.table(file = textConnection("a 3.14"), colClasses = c(x = "character",  
:
   not all columns named in 'colClasses' exist
If you read in the help page -- you did read that before posting, did you?---
how 'colClasses' should be specified ,

 colClasses: character.  A vector of classes to be assumed for the
  columns.  If unnamed, recycled as necessary.  If named, names
  are matched with unspecified values being taken to be ‘NA’.

  Possible values are ..
  .

and the 'x' and 'y' names you used, are matched with the
colnames ... which on the other hand are "V1" and "V2"  for
you, and so you provoke a warning.

Once you have read (and understood) the above part of the help
page, it becomes, easy, no?


tt <- read.table(textConnection("a 3.14"), colClasses = 
c("character","numeric"))
t2 <- read.table(textConnection("a 3.14"), colClasses=c(x="character",y="numeric"), 
col.names=c("x","y"))
t2

   xy
1 a 3.14
i.e., no warning in both of these two cases.

So please, please, PLEASE: at least non-beginners like you *should*
take the effort to read the help page (and report if these seem
incomplete or otherwise improvable)...

[R] trying to find the multiple combinations...

2017-12-07 Thread Benjamin Sabatini
Hi,

I'm trying to find a way to determine what multiples of the combination of 
three or more numbers equals a forth number.

So, if I had a number set like:

c(13.4689, 12.85212, 17.05071)

What combination and multiples of these numbers would average to 15.0078? (so, 
something that would tell me x, y, and z in (x*13.4689 + y*12.85212+ 
z*17.05071) / x+y+z) = 15.0078

I think this is doable with aggregate?

[R] setSessionLimit

2018-01-19 Thread Benjamin Tyner

Hello

The doc/NEWS.2 file mentions a setSessionLimit function, added with 
version 2.8.0


    o   setTimeLimit() function to set limits on the CPU
    and/or elapsed time for each top-level computation, and
    setSessionLimit() to set limits for the rest of the session.

However, I no longer see this function in recent versions of R, and 
there is no mention of its removal in the NEWS nor in the svn log. So 
I'm curious to learn why it was removed...does anyone recall?

Ben

Hi Martin,

Thanks for providing the reference.

In this particular case, it helped me to discover that 13 JVM threads 
were garbage collecting in parallel, occasionally resulting in a race 
condition. Setting


    options(java.parameters = "-XS:ParallelGCThreads=1")

appears to resolve the issue.

[R] system() or pipe(..., open = "r") without child process?

On linux, is it possible to invoke an OS command from within R without 
spawning a child process? If not, is it possible to avoid copying the 
"parts of the caller's context" that are mentioned on the clone manpage?


 ENOMEM Cannot  allocate  sufficient memory to allocate a task structure
  for the child, or to copy those parts of  the caller's  
context

  that need to be copied.

(I am trying to avoid that ENOMEM condition when calling system(),

That's not quite right:  it might lose the environment of fc, if it

is just


f <- fc
body(f) <- body(f)

because any assignment to the body of a function causes the bytecode

Both of our approaches will also cause the source references to be 
dropped.  If you want to save those, you need more steps:


f <- fc
body(f) <- body(f)
attr(f, "srcref") <- getSrcref(fc)

[R] Unknown anomaly

2017-04-18 Thread Benjamin Robira
Dear Sir,

I writting to you as I am facing an irregularity in R that I do not know
the origin. When doing a sequence from 0 to 1 by 0.02 and assigning it to
a vector (i.e. code: a <- seq(from=0, to=1, by=0.02)) then, when I try to
use the 36th element (and two others behave the same way) it is not
recognized correctly. For instance a[36]==0.7, what should give TRUE,
gives instead FALSE. However, this works fine for element 35 and 37 and
all other elements but two.
I do not know the reason. I restarted my R session and tried on another
computer. This has been the same. None of my colleagues had an answer. I
hope that you would be able to help me fix that as it must be a pretty
straightforward error that I do not realise.

I would be thankful for any help,
With my very Best Regards,
Benjamin.

[R] plot command error message

2017-06-04 Thread Benjamin Gföhler
 
I tried to plot a clustered linear regression model with the cplot command in R 
(code below). Leaflet is a binary variable (I know logit would be better), 
partisan is nummeric variable (0-4) and partisan_mis a dummy (0,1). As you can 
see it is clustered around two variables: around individuals and around the 
specific survey. When I try to run the cplot command I always get this error 
message:

error in plot.window(...) : need finite 'ylim' values 

Zusätzlich: Warnmeldungen:   1: In min(x) : no non-missing arguments to 
min; returning Inf 

2: In max(x) : no non-missing 
arguments to max; returning -Inf

Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

As I suppose that the problem has something to do with the way I coded the 
variables, here is how i did it:


voxit$leaflet[voxit$a65== "Ja"] <- 1
voxit$leaflet[voxit$a65== "Nein"] <- 0
voxitf <- subset(voxit, leaflet >= 0 ) 

voxitf$partisan[voxitf$a87x== "1 Tag oder weniger vorher"] <- 0
voxitf$partisan[voxitf$a87x== "Einige Tage vorher"] <- 1
voxitf$partisan[voxitf$a87x== "1-2 Woche(n) vorher"] <- 2
voxitf$partisan[voxitf$a87x== "Mehrere Wochen vorher"] <- 3
voxitf$partisan[voxitf$a87x== "Schon immer klar"] <- 4
mean(voxitf$partisan, na.rm = TRUE)

voxitf$partisan[is.na(voxitf$a87x)]<- 2.73493
table(voxitf$partisan)

voxitf$partisan_mis[is.na(voxitf$a87x)]<- 1
voxitf$partisan_mis[!is.na(voxitf$a87x)]<- 0


model1.1 <- lm(leaflet ~ partisan + partisan_mis , data = voxitf)

vcov_clust1.1 <- cluster.vcov(model1.1, cbind(voxitf$id,voxitf$projetx))

[R] Creating New Variable Using Ifelse

2017-08-09 Thread Courtney Benjamin
Hello R Help List,

I am an R novice and trying to use the ifelse function to create a new binary 
variable based off of the responses of two other binary variables; NAs are 
involved.  I pulled it off almost successfully, but when I checked the counts 
of my new variable for accuracy, I found that a small portion of the NA cases 
were not being passed through as NAs, but as "0" counts in my new variable.  My 
many attempts at creating a nested ifelse statement that would pass the NAs 
through properly have not been successful.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

Here is a MRE:?

library(RCurl)
data <- 
getURL("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cbenjamin1821/careertech-ed/master/elsq2wbl.csv";)
elsq2wbl <- read.csv(text = data)

##Recoding Negative Responses to NA
elsq2wbl [elsq2wbl[, "EVERRELJOB"] < -3, "EVERRELJOB"] <- NA
elsq2wbl [elsq2wbl[, "PSWBL"] < -2, "PSWBL"] <- NA

#Labeling categorical variable levels
elsq2wbl$EVERRELJOB <- factor(elsq2wbl$EVERRELJOB, levels = c(0,1), labels = 
c("No","Yes"))
elsq2wbl$PSWBL <- factor(elsq2wbl$PSWBL, levels = c(0,1), labels = 
c("No","Yes"))

##Trying to create a new variable to indicate if the student had a job
#related to the college studies that was NOT a WBL experience
elsq2wbl$NONWBLRELJOB <- ifelse(elsq2wbl$PSWBL=="No" & 
elsq2wbl$EVERRELJOB=="Yes",1,0)

#Cross tab to check counts of two variables that new variable is based upon
xtabs(~PSWBL+EVERRELJOB,subset(elsq2wbl,BYSCTRL==1&G10COHRT==1),addNA=TRUE)

#Checking count of newly created variable
Q2sub <- subset(elsq2wbl,BYSCTRL==1&G10COHRT==1)
library(plyr)
count(Q2sub,'NONWBLRELJOB')

#The new variable has the correct count of "1", but 88 cases too many for "0"
#The cross tab shows 20 and 68 NA cases that are being incorrectly counted as 
"0" in the new variable

#My other approach at trying to handle the NAs properly-returns an error
elsq2wbl$NONWBLRELJOB <- ifelse(elsq2wbl$PSWBL=="No" & 
elsq2wbl$EVERRELJOB=="Yes",1,ifelse(is.na(elsq2wbl$PSWBL)&is.na(elsq2wbl$EVERRELJOB),NA,

   ifelse(elsq2wbl$PSWBL!="No" & elsq2wbl$EVERRELJOB!="Yes",0)))

Did not work for me probably due to some restriction of data access.

If you wanted recode values below zero to NA you can do this easily without any 
ifelse

You can use simple logical functions to get desired result

First sample data
> a <- sample(c("Y", "N"), 30, replace=TRUE)
> b <- sample(c("Y", "N"), 30, replace=TRUE)
> (a=="N")*(b=="Y")
 [1] 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1

has 1 only if both conditions are met.

and it works with NA values too.

> a[c(3,5,8)] <- NA
> b[c(3,6,7,8)] <- NA
> (a=="N")*(b=="Y")
 [1]  1  1 NA  0 NA NA NA NA  0  0  1  0  0  1  0  0  0  0  1  0  0  0  0  0  0
[26]  0  0  0  0  1

[R] How to Display Value Labels in R Outputs?

2016-07-28 Thread Courtney Benjamin
Hello R Experts,

I am using the Survey Package in R to do some initial descriptive stats for my 
dissertation. With the outputs for both the svymean and the barplot, I would 
like the value labels to be displayed for the variable-it would make the 
descriptive statistics much easier to interpret. Instead of the output labels 
of: F1RTRCC1, F1RTRCC2-I would like to see the value labels of "academic" and 
"occupational" to be displayed.

How do I go about making this happen? I am including a minimal reproducible 
example with a small subset of my actual data:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5fHCR5TGRjaZ29wNzR0cF9YRXc/view?usp=sharing


Any help is greatly appreciated. My only experience thus far is with SPSS and I 
have a feeling that the reason the variable value labels are not appearing is 
due to either the way I read the dataset into R: elsq1ch<-read.table 
(file="els-Q1-04-21-16.dat", header = TRUE, sep = "\t", quote = "\"", dec =".") 
or I am not specifying some detail that is required to manually assign labels 
to the values of the variables.?

[R] Svyglm Error in Survey Package

2016-09-23 Thread Courtney Benjamin
In attempting to use the svyglm call in the R Survey Package, I am receiving 
the error: Error in pwt[i] : invalid subscript type 'list'

I have not been able to find a lot of information on how to resolve the error; 
one source advised it was related to how the subsetting command was executed.

This was my initial attempt:

mc1 <- 
svyglm(F3ATTAINMENT~F1SES2QU+F1RGPP2,elsq1ch_brr,subset(elsq1ch_brr,BYSCTRL==1 
& G10COHRT==1),na.action)
summary(mc1)
This was my second approach trying to change up how I had subsetted the data:
summary(mc1)
samp1 <- subset(elsq1ch_brr,BYSCTRL==1 & G10COHRT==1)
dim(samp1)
mc1 <- svyglm(F3ATTAINMENT~F1SES2QU+F1RGPP2,elsq1ch_brr,subset=samp1,na.action)
summary(mc1)?

Both attempts resulted in the same error stated above.  Any advisement in how 
to resolve this error would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Courtney Benjamin

Subject: RE: Svyglm Error in Survey Package

Dear Courtney,

You're confusing a function call, na.action(na.omit), with an argument 
specification, na.action=na.omit  (and, in any event, there is no na.action() 
function). But you don't have to specify na.action=na.omit, because na.omit 
(which produces a complete-case analysis) is the default na.action. See ?glm 
for more information.

If you haven't already done so, you might want to read something about how 
statistical modeling functions in R -- and possibly R more generally -- work. 
In the long run, that likely will save you some time.

I'm cc'ing this to the r-help email list, where you posed your original 
question. It's generally a good idea to keep responses on the list.

I hope this helps,
 John

[R] package implementing continuous binomial?

2015-05-06 Thread Benjamin Tyner
Hi

I'm wondering if anyone is aware of an R package implementing (i.e.,
providing a pdf, cdf, and/or quantile function) for the continuous
binomial distribution? Specifically the one characterized here:

http://www2.math.uni-paderborn.de/fileadmin/Mathematik/AG-Indlekofer/Workshop/Satellite_meeting/ilenko.pdf

Figured I would check here first, before attempting to code it up myself.

Regards
Ben

[R] Scatterplot : smoothing colors according to density of points

2015-06-02 Thread Benjamin Dubreuil
Hello everyone,

I have a data frame D with 4 columns id,X,Y,C.
I want to plot a simple scatter plot of D$X vs. D$Y and using D$C values as a 
color. (id is just a text string not used for the plot)

But actually, I don't want to use the raw values of D$C, I would prefer to 
calculate the average values of D$C according to the density of points in a 
fixed neighborhood.
In other words, I would like to smooth the colors according to the density of 
points.

I am looking for any function,package that could solve this.
So far, I've been looking at library MASS and the function kde2d which can 
calculate the density of points in 2 directions, but I don't see how I could 
then use this information to recalculate my D$C values.

Here is a piece of the matrix :
 > head(D)
  id X YC
1 O13297 44.44  21.61220 -0.136651639
2 O13329 31.272085   4.01590 -0.117016949

5 O13541 73.275862   3.59012 -0.006988235
6 O13547 28.991597 258.99900 -0.013985507

   X  Y  C
[1,]   0.3378378 0.0003 -0.738
[2,] 100.000 24556.4000  0.5582500
(Y is not linear, so I use log='y' in the plot function)

I used a palette of 100 colors ranging from Blue to Yellow to red.
>pal =  colorRampPalette(c("blue","yellow","red"))(100)

To make D$C values correspond to a color, I used a cut with the following 
breaks (101 breaks from -1.2 to 1.2):
> BREAKS

C.levels ranges from 2 to 98 and then to plot the colors I used pal[C.levels].
> plot( x=D$x, y=D$Y, col=pal[ C.levels ],log='y')

[R] Rprof and system

2015-08-11 Thread Benjamin Tyner
Hi

I have an R script which invokes WriteXLS() (from the package of the
same name) which as you may know, calls perl via system(). I've noticed
that when I enable profiling using Rprof(), when the script gets to the
part where perl is called, it gets "stuck": it just sits there using
99-100% CPU and around 10% of the RAM, and the perl command does not
even show up as a running process under 'top'. While it is churning
away, new profiling results continue to be written to the profiling file
(at which point the entries are all "system" / "WriteXLS").  I have also
noticed this behavior with other system() calls; not just perl. I've
also tried pipe(cmd, open = "r") as an alternative to system(cmd) and
the result is the same. I have tried in interactive as well as
non-interactive mode, and the issue occurs in both modes although seems
to be more common in the latter.

So, I'm wondering if perhaps Rprof() + system() not a recommended
combination ? I did notice from ?Rprof that "the profiler interrupts R
asynchronously"; though I do not know what that means, perhaps that is
somehow relevant? This is running on R version 3.2.1 under linux (RHEL6).

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Regards
Ben

Re: [R] mboost: Proportional odds boosting model - how to specify the offset?

2015-03-20 Thread Benjamin Hofner

Dear Madlene,

the problem that you observed was twofold.

First, mboost expects the offset to be a scalar or a vector with length
equal to the number of observations. However, fitted(p.iris) is a 
matrix. In PropOdds(), the linear or additive predictor is shared among 
all outcome categories and the thresholds are treated as nuisance 
parameter. What you need to supply as offset is the result of the linear 
or additive predictor (i.e., x'beta) instead of the fitted class 
probabilities.


Second, there was a bug in mboost. I fixed it on R-forge [1]. If the 
package was successfully built use

  install.packages("mboost", repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org";)
to install it. You can also email to me off list. Then I will send you 
the package sources directly.


Your nuisance parameters (which represent the class thresholds) can be
extracted via nuisance(mlp). More details are given in the example below.

Best,
Benjamin

[1] http://r-forge.r-project.org/projects/mboost/

 Example code 

library(MASS)
library(mboost)

data(iris)
iris$Species <- factor(iris$Species, ordered = T)
p.iris <- polr(Species  ~ Sepal.Length, data = iris)
p.iris

lm.iris <- glmboost(Species  ~ Sepal.Length, data = iris,
family = PropOdds(nuirange = c(-0.5, 3)))
lm.iris[1000]
## thresholds:
nuisance(lm.iris)

## to make these comparable to p.iris use
nuisance(lm.iris) - coef(lm.iris)["(Intercept)"] -
attr(coef(lm.iris), "offset")

## now use linear predictor as offset:
mlp <- gamboost(Species ~ bols(Sepal.Length) + bols(Sepal.Width),
data = iris, family = PropOdds(nuirange = c(0, 1)),
offset = fitted(lm.iris))




Nussbaum  Madlene wrote

Dear R team

The package mboost allows for boosting of proportional odds models.
However, I would like to include an offset for every observation.
This produces an error - no matter how I put the offset (as response
probabilities or as response link).

Fitting gamboost-models with offset works satisfactory with family =
Gaussian() or Multinomial().

Questions: 1) How do I need to specify the offset with family =
PropOdds()?

2) Where in the mboost-object do I find the Theta's (response
category dependent intercept)?

[R] Having trouble with gdata read in

2015-03-25 Thread Benjamin Baker
Trying to read and clean up the FERC data on Advanced Metering infrastructure. 
Of course it is in XLS for the first two survey years and then converts to XLSX 
for the final two. Bad enough that it is all in excel, they had to change the 
survey design and data format as well. Still, I’m sorting through it. However, 
when I try and read in the 2008 data, I’m getting this error:
###
Wide character in print at 
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.1/Resources/library/gdata/perl/xls2csv.pl
 line 270.
Warning message:
In scan(file, what, nmax, sep, dec, quote, skip, nlines, na.strings,  :
  EOF within quoted string
###



Here is the code I’m running to get the data:
###
install.packages("gdata")
library("gdata")
fileUrl <- 
"http://www.ferc.gov/industries/electric/indus-act/demand-response/2008/survey/ami_survey_responses.xls";
download.file(fileUrl, destfile="./ami.data/ami-data2008.xls")
list.files("ami.data")
dateDown.2008 <- date()
ami.data2008 <- read.xls("./ami.data/ami-data2008.xls", sheet=1, header=TRUE)
###


Reviewed the data in the XLS file, and both “” and # are present within it. 
Don’t know how to get the read.xls to ignore them so I can read all the data 
into my data frame. Tried :
###
ami.data2008 <- read.xls("./ami.data/ami-data2008.xls", sheet=1, quote="", 
header=TRUE)
###


And it spits out “More columns than column names” output.


Been searching this, and I can find some “solutions” for read.table, but 
nothing specific to read.xls


Many thanks,


Benjamin Baker

Anthony,




XLSX won’t read an XLS file. Additionally, the legacy Java that is required for 
the xlsx package really effs up my computer. Have to reinstall my OS to fix it.

[R] lattice: packet.number() versus panel.number()

2014-08-26 Thread Benjamin Tyner
Hi,

According to
https://svn.r-project.org/R-packages/trunk/lattice/R/print.trellis.R,

"[panel.number] is usually the same as, but can be different from
packet.number"

and I had been under the impression that as long as the user is not
using a custom index.cond nor perm.cond, the panel.number would in fact
be the same as the packet.number.

However, I have recently come across a case where the two are *not* the
same, even though I am not using a custom index.cond nor perm.cond.

So my question is, what might be some other possible situations in which
the two would be expected to differ?

Regards,
Ben

Re: [R] lattice: packet.number() versus panel.number()

2014-08-27 Thread Benjamin Tyner
Thanks David. It turns out that I was in fact using a custom index.perm,
but not on purpose. What happened was I used the "[" method on the
trellis object ( lattice:::`[.trellis`), which of course is nothing but
a short-cut for updating the index.perm. Lesson learned...

Ben

[R] from cut.Date

2014-09-17 Thread Benjamin Tyner
Hello,

I'm wondering if this is expected?

> cut(structure(1, class="Date"), structure(c(11100,1),
class="Date"))
[1] 
Levels: 2000-05-23

The help page says that "for ‘"Date"’ objects, only ‘"day"’, ‘"week"’,
‘"month"’, ‘"quarter"’ and ‘"year"’ are allowed" [for the 'breaks'
argument]. Though I am not sure whether this statement is only
applicable in the context of the previous sentence about interval
specification (i.e., a roundabout way of saying that ‘"sec"’, ‘"min"’,
‘"hour"’, and ‘"DSTday"’ are not allowed for 'Date' objects), or whether
it also means that a vector of cut points (as in my example) is likewise
not allowed? If the latter, then perhaps the function out to error out
rather than return  in this case?

Ben

Re: [R] from cut.Date

2014-09-17 Thread Benjamin Tyner
Thanks Brian! 

The confusion was due to my failure to notice that these two functions have 
opposite defaults for 'right':

   > args(cut.default)
   function (x, breaks, labels = NULL, include.lowest = FALSE, right = TRUE, 
dig.lab = 3L, ordered_result = FALSE, ...) 

   > args(cut.Date)
   function (x, breaks, labels = NULL, start.on.monday = TRUE, right = FALSE, 
...) 

I suppose the latter does make sense, given that days, months, years etc are 
right-continuous functions of time.

[R] scaling of Amat still recommended for quadprog::solve.QP ?

2014-09-25 Thread Benjamin Tyner
Greetings,

I ran across this recommendation, to keep the norms of the columns of
the Amat on similar
scales,

https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2007-September/141335.html

However, when I looked at the code, I noticed that the norms are already
being calculated:

c
c calculate the norm of each column of the A matrix
c
  do 51 i=1,q
 sum = 0.d0
 do 52 j=1,n
sum = sum + amat(j,i)*amat(j,i)
 52  continue
 work(iwnbv+i) = sqrt(sum)
 51   continue
  nact = 0
  iter(1) = 0
  iter(2) = 0
 50   continue

though I am not sure exactly how these norms get used subsequently. My
question is, is it no longer necessary to follow Berwin's recommendation
from 2007? Or are the norms being calculated for some other purpose, and
the recommendation still applies?

Ben

[R] backsolve, chol, Matrix, and SparseM

2015-09-24 Thread Benjamin Tyner
Hi

I have some code which does (on a symmetric matrix 'x')

backsolve(chol(x), diag(nrow(x)))

and I am wondering what is the recommended way to accomplish this when x
is also sparse (from package:Matrix). I know that package:Matrix
provides a chol method for such matrices, but not a backsolve method. On
the other hand, package:SparseM does provide a backsolve method, but
doesn't actually return a sparse matrix. Moreover, I am a little
hesitant to use SparseM, as the vignette seems to be from 2003.

I did notice that help(topic = "solve", package = "Matrix") says "In
‘solve(a,b)’ in the ‘Matrix’ package, ‘a’ may also be a
‘MatrixFactorization’ instead of directly a matrix." which makes me
think this is the right way:

Matrix::solve(Cholesky(x), .sparseDiagonal(nrow(x)))

but unfortunately this didn't give the same result as:

Matrix::solve(chol(x), .sparseDiagonal(nrow(x)))

so I'm asking here in case someone has any suggestions.

Regards,
Ben

Re: [R] backsolve, chol, Matrix, and SparseM

2015-09-25 Thread Benjamin Tyner
Hi Martin,

Thanks for the remarks and examples, and for confirming that I was
indeed barking up the wrong tree with SparseM.

A. I assume that is a typo and you meant to say, no need for backsolve().
B. Absolutely; however, in this case I am taking advantage of
quadprog::solve.QP(..., factorized = TRUE) which requires the inverse of
the Cholesky factor; it turns out to be faster to compute this one time
upfront rather than have solve.QP(..., factorized = FALSE) do it over
and over again. Of course the holy grail would be a QP solver which
takes advantage of the various innovations from package:Matrix, but I
digress...
C. Agreed, assuming you are talking about Matrix::solve(X) on X of class
Matrix. On the other hand for a regular matrix x it is not difficult to
construct examples where backsolve(chol(x), diag(nrow(x))) is twice as
fast as base::solve(chol(x)), which led me down this path in the first
place.

By the way, is R-forge still the correct place to report bugs in
package:Matrix?

Regards
Ben

[R] efficiently multiply each column of a sparse Matrix by a sparse vector

2015-11-28 Thread Benjamin Tyner

Hi,

Say I have a sparse Matrix X, and a sparse vector (stored as a 1-column 
sparse Matrix A), with X and A having the same number of rows, and I 
wish to multiply each column of X by A, but would like the operation to 
take full advantage of the sparseness of both X and A. In other words I 
want the result to be another sparse Matrix but not having any zeros 
calculated or stored unnecessarily. For concreteness,


   library(Matrix)
   set.seed(6860)
   X <- sparseMatrix(i = sample(1:10, 5L),
 j = sample(1:10, 5L),
 x = rep(1, 5),
 dims = c(10L, 10L)
 )
   A <- sparseMatrix(i = sample(1:10, 5L),
 j = rep(1L, 5L),
 x = rep(1, 5),
 dims = c(10L, 1L)
 )

and observe that

   print(X * A[, 1L, drop=TRUE])

gives the following, in which three 0s are not represented sparsely,

   10 x 10 sparse Matrix of class "dgCMatrix"

[1,] . . . . . . . . . .
[2,] . . 1 . . . . . . .
[3,] . . . . . . . . . .
[4,] . . . . . 0 . . . .
[5,] . . . . . . 0 . . .
[6,] . 1 . . . . . . . .
[7,] . . . . . . . . . .
[8,] . . . . . . . . . .
[9,] . . . . . . . . . .
   [10,] 0 . . . . . . . . .

in other words I am wondering if there is a more efficient way to arrive 
at the same result as,


   print(X * A[, rep(1L, ncol(X)), drop=FALSE])

   10 x 10 sparse Matrix of class "dgCMatrix"

[1,] . . . . . . . . . .
[2,] . . 1 . . . . . . .
[3,] . . . . . . . . . .
[4,] . . . . . . . . . .
[5,] . . . . . . . . . .

This seems like such a simple thing, but has me stumped. Any ideas?

[R] choropleth packages (US)

2015-12-06 Thread Benjamin Tyner

Hi

I wish to draw a basic choropleth (US, by state) and am wondering if 
anyone has any recommendations? I've tried the following thus far:


1. choroplethr: this works, but required installation of 30+ 
dependencies. I would prefer something with fewer dependencies.
2. tmap: this also seems promising, but most of the examples I saw were 
specific to European maps. Can it be adapted for US?
3. statebins: doesn't draw true choropleths, but I liked that it doesn't 
have many dependencies.


Regards
Ben

Very nice Adrian. Is there a straightforward way to add Alaska and 
Hawaii at the lower left? (without resorting to choroplethr package)

Hi,

You can also use the 'maps' package for the map data and the 'scales'
package for the color mapping.

E.g.

library(maps)
library(scales)

m <- map('state', fill=TRUE, plot=FALSE)

s_data <- tolower(rownames(USArrests))
s_map <- tolower(m$names)

mapping <- lapply(s_data, function(state) {
   which(grepl(state, s_map))
})
## check if the mapping is good!

col_pal <- col_numeric("Greens", domain=NULL, na.color = 'lightyellow')

cols <- rep('lightyellow', length(s_data))

Map(function(indices, col) {
   cols[indices] <<- col
}, mapping, col_pal(USArrests$UrbanPop))

map(m, col=cols, fill=TRUE)

[R] R_DirtyImage and Rprof

2016-05-11 Thread Benjamin Tyner

Hello,

I have some code which was running in interactive mode while Rprof(..., 
line.profiling = TRUE). Near the end of my script, it opens up a 
pipe(..., open = "w") to a perl script, and at that point the execution 
gets stuck using 100% cpu.


(The perl script itself never showed up in pstree, as far as I can tell).

I did a "tail -f" on the file being written to by Rprof, and it was 
reporting "sys.save.image" over and over, and in fact an ".RData" file 
appeared when I had not asked for one, and I was able to load it later.


This got me curious, as nowhere in my code do I directly use that 
function. Looking through the source code for R, it appears that 
"sys.save.image" is called whenever an R_DirtyImage condition is triggered.


This was using R version 3.2.2 under RHEL. My efforts to create a 
reproducible example of this behavior have thus far been unsuccessful.


My questions: is there any documentation for R_DirtyImage, and how 
plausible is it that the R_DirtyImage condition was triggered by 
something Rprof did? The reason for my conjecture is that 
sys.save.image() calls closeAllConnections(), which I imagine might have 
interfered with the pipe that was open for writing, thus causing the 
stuck execution at that point.


If so, any advice for avoiding the R_DirtyImage condition while profiling?

If not, any conjectures for what might actually be going on? For what 
it's worth, I have observed a similar situation when using Rprof + 
system() instead of pipe(); for example:

[R] Significance of Svyrepdesign Object Warning

2016-10-23 Thread Courtney Benjamin
Hello R Users,

I am using Lumley's Survey Package in R to analyze complex survey data that 
involves 200 balanced repeated replicate (BRR) weight variables.  I have 
ensured that my svyrepdesign object that specifies the application of the BRR 
weights to the data set is accurate and I have matched the published standard 
errors of the data set.

When doing a logistic regression through the svyglm call, I receive the 
following warning:

In object$survey.design$pweights * presid^2 :
  longer object length is not a multiple of shorter object length?
I have search around quite a bit online and have not been able to find any good 
interpretation of its meaning.  I want to be sure that I am not making some 
type of mistake that is causing this warning to be produced.  Any advisement is 
greatly appreciated.
The following is an MRE that can be pasted into the R console:

Re: [R] Significance of Svyrepdesign Object Warning

2016-10-23 Thread Courtney Benjamin
​Thank you for your help.  I did try Anthony's recommendation of removing the 
'na.action=na.exclude' ; I thought I needed that argument as the data set 
includes NA values.  I found it interesting that without the 
'na.action=na.exclude' argument, the baseline level of two of my predictor 
variables (BYINCOME & F1HIMATH) were changed.

The immediate problem could be solved by changing the following lines in 
survey:::summary.svrepglm from
presid <- resid(object, "pearson")
dispersion <- sum(object$survey.design$pweights * presid^2,
na.rm = TRUE)/sum(object$survey.design$pweights)

pweights <- naresid(object$na.action, object$survey.design$pweights)
dispersion <- sum(pweights * presid^2, na.rm = TRUE)/sum(pweights,

'naresid' uses the information from na.exclude to match up the residuals
with the row in the data that they correspond to.  resid() calls it so it should
also be applied to pweights so they line up correctly.

[R] Archer-Lemeshow Goodness of Fit Test for Survey Data with Log. Regression

2016-11-16 Thread Courtney Benjamin
?Hello R Experts,

I am trying to implement the Archer-Lemeshow GOF Test for survey data on a 
logistic regression model using the survey package based upon an R Help Archive 
post that I found where Dr. Thomas Lumley advised how to do it: 
http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Goodness-of-t-tests-for-Complex-Survey-Logistic-Regression-td4668233.html

Everything is going well until I get to the point where I have to add the 
objects 'r' and 'g' as variables to the data frame by either using the 
transform function or the update function to update the svrepdesign object.  
The log. regression model involved uses a subset of data and some of the values 
in the data frame are NA, so that is affecting my ability to add 'r' and 'g' as 
variables; I am getting an error because I only have 8397 rows for the new 
variables and 16197 in the data frame and svrepdesign object.  I am not sure 
how to overcome this error.

2016-11-18 Thread Courtney Benjamin
​Thank you, Anthony.  Your approach does work; however, I am concerned to some 
degree about subsetting the data prior to creating the new svrepdesign as I 
know that it is not recommended to subset the data prior to creating the 
svrepdesign object.  I am not sure if this is a significant concern in this 
context as the model was fitted with the original svrepdesign that was created 
prior to subsetting any data and the new svrepdesign is being used to run the 
diagnostic for the model.  Any thoughts on that issue?

Also, from my understanding of the outcome of the diagnostic, low p values 
indicate a poor model fit.

Courtney

concentration, the qr.default error occurs.  I thought it may have been related 
to converting the F1RTRCC variable into a factor for use in the original model; 
I went back and restored that variable to its original form and it didn't help.

Any guidance is greatly appreciated.

[R] modify the imported version of a function

2016-12-16 Thread Benjamin Tyner

Hi

I saw on the assignInNamespace help page, that it changes "the copy in 
the namespace, but not any copies already exported from the namespace, 
in particular an object of that name in the package (if already 
attached) and any copies already imported into other namespaces."


So now I'm wondering, whether there is a way to modify such copies 
already imported into other namespaces? For a concrete example, consider 
the lint package (now archived on CRAN) which includes a function 
check_pattern, which calls stringr:::perl, which has been deprecated in 
newer versions:


   > stringr:::perl
   function (pattern)
   {
   message("perl is deprecated. Please use regexp instead")
   regex(pattern)
   }
   

so, what if I wanted to directly replace stringr:::perl with 
stringr:::regex, in such a way that lint::check_pattern sees the 
replacement? Is there a way, preferably without having to attach stringr 
to the search path?


(I'm mostly just interested in learning about how namespace imports 
actually work; of course in this toy example one could use 
suppressMessages to hide that deprecation message).


Regards
Ben

Re: [R] [FORGED] file.exists() on device files

2017-01-13 Thread Benjamin Tyner

Thank you for the insights, Rolf and Henrik.

To give another example, this time in non-interactive mode,

   Rscript -e "file.exists(commandArgs(TRUE))" <(echo "Hi")

   [1] TRUE

versus

   Rscript -e "normalizePath(commandArgs(TRUE))" <(echo "Hi")
   [1] "/dev/fd/63"
   Warning message:
   In normalizePath(commandArgs(TRUE)) :
 path[1]="/dev/fd/63": No such file or directory

It almost seems like file.exists and normalizePath use separate criteria 
for determining existence?

Ben

FYI, the /proc is there because Unix has something called the "proc

file-like structure".  For instance, you can query the uptime of the

$ cat /proc/uptime
332826.96 661438.10

$ cat /proc/uptime
332871.40 661568.50


You can get all IDs (PIDs) of all processes currently running:

$ ls /proc/ | grep -E '^[0-9]+$'

and for each process you there are multiple attributes mapped as
files, e.g. if I start R as:

$ R --args -e "message('hello there')"

then I can query that process as:

$ pid=$(pidof R)
$ echo $pid
26323

$ cat /proc/26323/cmdline
/usr/lib/R/bin/exec/R--args-emessage('hello there')

Unix is neat


Indeed.  Couldn't agree more.  Thanks for the insight.

[R] flushing on.exit prior to q()

2017-02-21 Thread Benjamin Tyner

Hi,

When using a custom error function that calls q(), what is the 
recommended way to "flush" the calling function's on.exit ?


For example, say I have a script:

   #!/usr/bin/Rscript --no-init-file

   options(error = function() {

  cat("on error message\n", file = stderr())

  q(save = "no", status = 1)
   })

   test <- function() {

   on.exit(cat("on exit message\n", file = stderr()))

   stop("error")
   }

   test()

when I run the script, the "on exit message" does not print. (I found 
one solution might involve adding a stop() to my custom error function 
prior to the q(); however this is somewhat less than ideal: it also 
triggers an "error during wrapup" because of the recursion).


Other ideas, best practices?

Thanks
Ben

Subject: [R] Matrix barplot

Hi,

as a bloody R beginner I failed to solve the probably simple problem
to create a barplot of the following data read from a file

  Year  A BC
  2000  4 30
  2001  2 13
  2002  1 25

The Barplot should look like

 5 | C
 4 |   A C
 3 |   AB  C C
 2 |   ABA CBC
 1 |   ABABC   ABC
   +--
  2000  2001  2002

(well, something like that - the colors are encoded as letters in this
  ASCII-graphics - assume the coloring / shading as usual).

My problem is that if I read the table using

data <- read.table(file='data.dat', sep = '\t', fill=TRUE,
header=TRUE )

everything looks is read as expected if I try

data

but I have no idea how to separate the Matrix (A B C) to specify the
height parameter of barplot as a matrix and the names.arg parameter
for the inscription.  Whatever I tried I get

'height' must be a vector or a matrix

and I have no idea to do this right.  So I think I'm just facing a
data conversion problem and have to turn data[['Year']]  into a vector
and the remaining table into a matrix.

I guess this is a really simple question - but I failed to find a
solution.

Kind regards

Andreas.

Re: [R] Color of box frame in Legend (Was: Matrix barplot)

2008-07-28 Thread Nutter, Benjamin
Try sourcing in the 'new.legend' function below. It's the legend
function with a new argument called 'box.col'.  The argument will change
the color of the box surrounding the legend.  If I understand what it is
you are looking for, this should work.  Also, I didn't see a way to
change the axis bar in your code, so I suppressed the axis in the call
to barplot, and manually replaced the axis using the axis function.  I
hope this works for you.

[R] parent in Creating environment object

2008-08-01 Thread Benjamin Otto
Hi,

I would like to convert a simple list into an environment object. It seems I
have to create an environment object with new.env() and assign the single
values afterwards. Now what I did not really understand from the guides
until now is, how the parent environment supplied to the new.env() function
influence the final environment. So:

1. Do I ALWAYS have to supply a parent during creation?
2. If yes, what would that be, when all I want is a conversion from a simple
list?

Best regards

Benjamin

Hi Erik,

Yes this is what I was trying and your example or the one of luke is working

So now I'm not sure if this is due to an environment which takes too much
space. The environment troubling me has 644276 entries. Is this too much?

Can you give a small, reproducible example as the posting guide asks? 
And also provide your sessionInfo() ?

I am not able to replicate this.

test <- new.env()
assign("hi", pi, pos = test)
save(test, file = "~/testenv.Rdata")

does not give me an error.  Is this basically what you're trying?

[R] Generic attribute in multinom function

2009-08-11 Thread Benjamin Geckle

Hello,
I try estimate a MNL model but I need one coefficient as generic. How 
can I get the same coefficient for all alternatives?




As example

Call:

multinom(formula = choice ~ time + costs, data = DATA)



Coefficients:

  (Intercept)time costs

14.79-0.28  -3.97

2   -3.30 0.053 0.59

32.10-0.048-0.65



But I would like to get the costs parameters as generic attribute, so 
that I have the following result:




Coefficients:

  (Intercept)time   costs

14.79-0.3-1.8

2   -3.36 0.4-1.8

32.10-0.5-1.8

Thanks.

[R] applying summary() to an object created with ols()

2009-08-21 Thread Benjamin Volland

Hello R-list,

I am trying to calculate a ridge regression using first the *lm.ridge()* 
function from the MASS package and then applying the obtained Hoerl 
Kennard Baldwin (HKB) estimator as a penalty scalar to the *ols()* 
function provided by Frank Harrell in his Design package.

It looks like this:
> rrk1<-lm.ridge(lnbcpc ~ lntex + lnbeerp + lnwinep + lntemp + pop, 
subset(aa, Jahr>=1957 & Jahr<=1966))
> f <- ols(lnbcpc ~ lntex + lnbeerp + lnwinep + lntemp + pop, 
subset(aa, Jahr>=1957 & Jahr<=1966), penalty = rrk$kHKB)

> f

which returns
>Linear Regression Model
>
>ols(formula = lnbcpc ~ lntex + lnbeerp + lnwinep + lntemp + pop,
>data = subset(aa, Jahr >= 1957 & Jahr <= 1966), penalty = rrk$kHKB)

All in all beautiful (leaving aside that the results suck). The problem 
starts when I want to write the obtained coefficients (incl. Std. 
Errors, t-, and p-values) into a matrix.
Via the *f$coef* command I can only access the betas (1st column) and 
using the *summary(f)* function I get

> summary(f)
>Fehler in summary.Design(f) :
>adjustment values not defined here or with datadist for lntex lnbeerp 
lnwinep lntemp pop


Does anyone know how I can set the *datadist()* and the *options()* such 
that I will get access to all coefficients?


I tried:
> options(datadist=NULL)
> f <- ols(lnbcpc ~ lntex + lnbeerp + lnwinep + lntemp + pop, 
subset(aa, Jahr>=1957 & Jahr<=1966), penalty = rrk$kHKB)

> d <- datadist(f)
but got:
> Fehler in sort.list(unique(y)) : 'x' must be atomic for 'sort.list'
> Have you called 'sort' on a list?

In the R documentation on ?ols() it states concerning the values 
returned: "the same objects returned from |lm| (/unless |penalty| or 
|penalty.matrix| are given/ - then an abbreviated list is returned since 
|lm.pfit| is used as a fitter)..." Unfortunately no information seems to 
be available on lm.pfit.
Does anyone know why the using that function leads to an abbreviated 
return list? Is there a trick to circumvent that?


Thanks
Benjamin Volland

[R] Problem with specifying variance-covariance matrix for random effects (nlme package)

2010-02-14 Thread Benjamin Cheah
Hi all,

I've been struggling with trying to specify a diagnoal matrix for linear mixed 
effects model. I think I've got nearly everything correct, except the following 
message appears:

In lme.formula(fixed = fwave ~ sex + sexXbulbar + visit + age +  :
  Fewer observations than random effects in all level 1 groups

Not sure if i've provided enough details, but I'm basically trying to perform a 
mixed effects model analysis, controlling for several covariates. Incorporating 
random effects for the intercept and slope.

What does the second line, 'Fewer observations than random effects in all level 
1 groups' mean?

Many thanks in advance,

Ben Cheah

Re: [R] all possible subsets, with AIC

2010-02-15 Thread Nutter, Benjamin
I've dabbled in this a little bit, and the result of my dabbling is
attached.  I'll give you fair warning, however.  The attached function
can take a long time to run, and if your model has 10 or more
predictors, you may be retired before it finishes running.

In any case, it will models for all possible subsets of predictors in
lm, glm, or coxph.  If requested, it will also plot the R-squared,
Adjusted R-squared, AIC, or BIC of those models (when the values are
applicable to the model).  It might give you a good starting point.

Subject: [R] all possible subsets, with AIC



Hello, 

I have a question about doing ALL possible subsets regression with a
general linear model. My goal is to produce cumulative Akaike weights
for each of 7 predictor variables-to obtain this I need R to: 

1.
Show me ALL possible subsets, not just the best possible subsets 

2. Give
me an AIC value for each model (instead of a BIC value). 

I have tried to
do this in library(RcmdrPlugin.HH), and using the "leaps" code below.
With the leaps code my problem is that my response is not a vector, it's
a single value (density of a species) 

ANy help would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks a lot,
Kate 

ALL-SUBSETS
REGRESSIOM

DESCRIPTION

leaps() performs an exhaustive search for the best subsets of the
variables in x for predicting y in linear regression, using an efficient
branch-and-bound algorithm. It is a compatibility wrapper for regsubsets
[1] does the same thing better. 

Since the algorithm returns a
best model of each size, the results do not depend on a penalty model
for model size: it doesn't make any difference whether you want to use
AIC, BIC, CIC, DIC, ... 

USAGE

leaps(x=, y=, wt=rep(1, NROW(x)), int=TRUE, method=c("Cp", "adjr2",
"r2"), nbest=10, names=NULL, df=NROW(x),
strictly.compatible=TRUE)

ARGUMENTS

x
A matrix of predictors

y

A response vector

wt
Optional weight vector

int
Add an
intercept to the model

method
Calculate Cp, adjusted R-squared or
R-squared

nbest
Number of subsets of each size to report

names

vector of names for columns of x

df
Total degrees of freedom to
use instead of nrow(x) in calculating Cp and adjusted R-squared


strictly.compatible
Implement misfeatures of leaps() in S

very large CSV datasets that contain vehicle information.  As I am
processing the data, I need to select the first (or sometimes the
second) record (by date) for any records that have the same license

'license plate') found in the data.  I have spent some time looking

Can anyone recommend an efficient technique that would pull this off?  I

then apply the filter or function.  Any help would be greatly

For instance, if I have a plot title "Scatterplot for Subject 24", I

Subject: [R] Row-wisely converting a data frame into a list

Hello,

is there an elegant way, how I can convert each row of a data frame into
distinct elements of a list?

In essence, what I'm looking for is something like

rows.to.lists <- function( df ) {
ll <- NULL
for( i in 1:nrow(df) )
ll <- append( ll, list(df[i,]) )
return (ll)
}

but more done more efficiently (the data frame may contain ten-thousands
of rows). I thought about using apply() but this function always returns
a matrix.

Thanks in advance!

Bye,
Sebastian

Re: [R] Help on getting help from manuals

2010-03-12 Thread Nutter, Benjamin
As has been pointed out, there are tools in R to help find the commands
you are looking for.

As a practical note, I recommend starting with '?' if you think you know
what command you need.

If you're unsure of what command you need, my next step would be
help.search().  Often, the results from here will point you to a command
that you are looking for.

If a handful of tries with help.search() doesn't get you what you need,
then try RSiteSearch().  This will search the mailing list for entries
relevant to your search criteria.  Often times, you'll find that someone
has already asked your question.  In fact, I can only recall a couple of
times where a search of the mailing list has failed to provide a
solution for me.

Aside from reading lots of documentation, the one thing that has helped
me the most in picking up R has been reading Peter Dalgaard's
"Introductory Statistics with R."  It's a very small, basic introduction
to R, but laid a solid enough foundation that I soon found myself able
to produce and refine my own solutions.

In short, the best way to improve our knowledge of R is lots of reading
and a bit of trial and error.

Hi,

A number of people have suggested "I read the manuals"...

Could someone help me by telling me where the primary start point is
please?

For example, I am interested in writing functions with variable number
of arguments - where should I start to look?

"An introduction to R" only show a brief example - with no pointer to
where to find further data.

I can't do ?xxx from R console in most cases - as I don't know what the
function name is that I am looking for!!!

People have helped me find "substitute" to get some metadata out - BUT
how could I have found that without guidance from nice people in Nabble?

Any help on this very much appreciated.

[R] Retrieving latitude and longitude via Google Maps API

2010-03-16 Thread Nutter, Benjamin
Does anyone have any experience retrieving latitutde and longitude for
an address from the Google Maps API?  

I'd like to have an R script that submits a street address, city, state,
and zip code and returns the coordinates.  So far, I've been submitting
the coordinates from another program, then loading the coordinates in R
and merging them back into the data frame I want to use.  It'd be nice
to be able to do it all in one script, but I'm not comprehending the API
thing very well.

I'm using R 2.9.1 on Windows XP.  Any suggestions or pointers?

Re: [R] mboost: Interpreting coefficients from glmboost if center=TRUE

2010-03-19 Thread Benjamin Hofner
Sorry for the tardy reply but I just found your posting incidentally 
today. To make long things short:


You are right about the centering. We forgot to correct the intercept if 
center = TRUE. We lately found the problem ourself and fixed it in the 
current version (mboost 2.0-3). However the problem only occurred if you 
extracted the coefficients. As the intercept is rarely interpretable we 
didn't have a closer look and thus it took some time until we found this 
bug. The model predictions however always took care of the centering and 
thus were not affected (as you already pointed out).


As you realized centering is of hight importance if you use glmboost as 
it reduces the number of boosting iterations needed to estimate the 
model and furthermore often improves the estimates. Centering is also 
important if you use gamboost() and specify linear base-learners without 
intercept (e.g. bols(x, intercept=FALSE)). However, in this case you 
have to center the covariates yourself and take care of the intercept 
correction afterwards.


You wrote you weren't aware of a mailing list for mboost but you could 
write to the maintainer (see 
http://cran.at.r-project.org/package=mboost) for possible help and/or to 
report bugs.

Kyle Werner wrote:

Thanks for your reply. In fact, I do use the predict method for model
assessment, and it shows that centering leads to a substantial
improvement using even the bluntest of assessments of 'goodness'
(i.e., binary categorization accuracy). So I agree that the package
authors must have internal tools to reverse the effects of centering
the variables, at least within the predict method. But it seems to me
that the coefficients that I get out should be related to the values
that I input, not to the centered values. In other words, centering
seems like it should be done "invisibly;" unless I center the
variables myself, I would expect the coefficients to be applicable to
the original data.

I extract the coefficients returned by the model and store them in a
database which is web accessible. I reconstruct models periodically,
and track various statistics associated with these models in the
database. This is why I highly value the fact that mboost has
glmboost, which can return linearly interpretable coefficients. It is
also why I do not directly call upon R every time I want to query a
model. (As an aside, if I were to use R directly, I might consider the
gamboost or blackboost methods, which do not return scalar
coefficients that are readily extractable.)

[R] dump() an object of type raw ?

Thank you David for taking the time to respond to my question. Perhaps I 
should clarify: the man page says "a 'dump' file can be 'source'd"; have 
I taken the documentation too literally in this case?

Yes, "2d".I get:

So there was an good faith effort to source the file but the 
interpreter was not put on notice that it would be getting 
hexadecimal. The file contains:


x <-
c(18, 2d, 44, 54, fb, 21, 09, 40)

and when you try to execute that from the command line you get:

> x <-
+ c(18, 2d, 44, 54, fb, 21, 09, 40)
Error: syntax error

(R variable names cannot start with 2 and R wouldn't assume these are 
hexadecimal numbers.)

Re: [R] numbers on barplot

The only thing you're missing is the midpoints of the bars.  Since you
specified

> Graph <- barplot(dat$Average)

You can get the midpoints from the Graph object.  So to put the number
on top of each bar you might use something like:

[R] RExcel

2009-10-06 Thread Benjamin Ward
Hello-

I am a Graduate Assistant for an instructor who has written programs for
statistics calculations such as binomial distributions and regressions.

The programs had worked with no problem in Excel 2003. Now we are trying to
use it with Excel 2007, and we are having some trouble.

I have downloaded RandFriends and have ran the binomial distribution
process in 2007 Excel and have received an error that says: "Compile error
in hidden module: UFDBinomial"

However, ther are two demo excel files in the RExcel file called RdemoDens.
When I open the first RDemoDens excel file, I can run the processes and they
work fine. When I run the second RDemoDens excel file, or a blank excel 2007
file, the processes do not work and I get the error message.

I am trying to figure out what is different about the first RDemoDens excel
file that allows the calculations to process correctly. I am thinking that
something in the macro library in the demo must be different than what is in
a blank excel document. I just cannot seem to figure out what it is.

One thing that I did notice is that there are two different RExcel files in
the RExcel folder. One is labled "RExcel" and one is labed "RExcel 2007."
What are the difference between these two RExcel files? I am not sure if
this has anything to do with the problem, but perhaps the excel demo in
which our calculations work uses the correct RExcel file while a regular
excel 2007 document does not call the correct one.

If anyone has an idea about what might be happening here, or who else I
could ask about the situation, I would appreciate any input.

Thanks,

Ben Ward

Re: [R] row selection

2009-10-09 Thread Nutter, Benjamin
sub3 <- x[-seq(1, nrow(x), by=5), ]
 
Notice the '-' in front of the seq() command.  This will select
everything but what is in the sequence.

Hi all,

Thank you for your help. Now I am able to select every 5th row of the
data from the main data set (x) 
using

sub1<- x[seq(1, nrow(x), by=5), ]


So sub1 contains one fith of the data set  X.  I want also create
another data set that will contain the remaining  data set from X (ie.,
four fifth of the data set).

Any help is highly appreciated.

[R] Functional data analysis - problems with smoothing

2009-10-22 Thread Benjamin Cheah
Hi all,

I'm having major issues with smoothing my functional data

I'm referring to Jim Ramsay's
examples in his books. The following error message keeps appearing,
despite all my data being numeric can anyone kindly offer any suggestions?

isi - vector of argument values - i.e. the independent variable of the curves
rlz - data array
TMSfdPar - functional data parameter.

> TMSfdPar = fdPar(TMSbasis, 4, 0.01)
> TMSfdsmooth = smooth.basis(isi, rlz, TMSfdPar)
Error in smooth.basis(isi, rlz, TMSfdPar) : 'argvals' is not numeric.

I don't understand why the error message keeps popping up. I've tried playing 
around with Jim Ramsay's datasets and I think my data is organised in a similar 
manner to his, so can't understand what's going on oh, the frustration!

Thanks in advance,

Ben
(the amateur R data analyst and statistician.)

Re: [R] Functional data analysis - problems with smoothing

2009-10-23 Thread Benjamin Cheah
Hi Peter and Spencer (and everyone else out there),

Thank you for your prompt reply to my post re. FDA - FYI - i'm very new to R 
and FDA. Currently half way through a biostats masters degree in Sydney, 
Australia! Absolutely loving it and I hope to include R computing on my future 
CV!

Just to clarify things:

When I entered what you suggested, this is what I obtained with my own 
dataset
> str(isi)
 num [1:14] 1 1.5 2 2.5 3 3.5 4 5 7 10 ...

Similarly, for Jim Ramsay's dataset (chapter five of Use R book):
> str(age)
 num [1:31] 1 1.25 1.5 1.75 2 3 4 5 6 7 ...

Doesn't this mean that my data object, 'isi' is numeric?

Also, I was looking through Jim Ramsay's datasets - I'm fairly sure that my 
vector, 'isi' was similarly organised to his vector, 'age' in chapter 5 of his 
new Use R FDA book, so I'm fairly certain that the data is numeric but it 
obviously isn't

Hope this email clarified things - apologies if it hasn't - still very new to 
the terminology and overall feel of R.

The R user network is terrific! Thank you for caring!

Ben

The error message is pretty clear: regardless of what
*you* think, R says that 'isi' is not numeric.

Are you sure that 'isi' is not a *factor* object?
I'm willing to bet that it is.

Use str() to check your data.

Re: [R] extracting the last row of each group in a data frame

2009-11-17 Thread Nutter, Benjamin
I usually use the following function:

last.record <- function(data, id, ..., na.last=TRUE, decreasing=FALSE){

  #*** Make vector of variables to sort by
  v <- c(id, unlist(list(...)))

  #*** Sort Data Frame
  data <- data[do.call(order,
c(data[,v, drop=FALSE], na.last=na.last,
decreasing=decreasing)),]

  #*** Extract last record for each id
  data[!duplicated(data[,id], fromLast=TRUE),]
}


DataData Frame from which the record is to be extracted
Id  ID variable from which the record is to be extracted.  The
data frame is automatically
  sorted by this variable.  May be either a character string
or an integer.
... Names of variables (or indices) in additon to id by which
data should be sorted.
na.last Argument passed to order().  Determines if missing values
are placed at the end
  of the sorting.
Decreasing  Argument passed to order().  Determines if data frame is
sorted in descending
  order.



So, in your example

> df <- data.frame(Name = c("A", "A", "A", "B", "B", "C", "D"),
   Value = c(1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 2, 3))


> last.record(df, "Name", "Value")

> last.record(df, 1, 2)

[R] Adding and Multiplying two Unevaluated Expressions

2009-12-01 Thread Benjamin Müller
HI,

As I'm trying to compute Taylor series, I'm having problems in adding and 
multiplying unevaluated expressions. I searched for a solution but found none.

my Taylor function works fine for evaluating functions as you can see here:


rTaylorVal=function(exp,x0,dx,n) {

ls=list(x=x0)

newexp=eval(exp,ls)

exp0=exp

for (i in 1:n){
exp0=D(exp0,"x")
newexp=newexp+eval(exp0,ls)/factorial(i)*dx^i
}

return(newexp)

}

Where exp is an expression like exp=expression(x^2*sin(x)), x0 is the 
startvalue, dx the difference between startvalue and searched value and n is 
the length of the series.

So I tried to remove dx as a value, to get a Taylor series expression, but it 
doesn't work as simple multiplication (*) and accumulation (+) is not good for 
expressions.

That's my point so far, now my question:

Is it actually possible to add and/or multiply expressions, and how?

Thank you so far.

This works fine for your example, but doesn't work as simple if there's 
more than these expressions.


In my example this would be in line 11:

newexp=as.expression(substitute(a+con1/con2*b^con3,list(a=newexp[[1]],b=expression(dx)[[1]],con1=eval(exp0,ls),con2=factorial(i),con3=1*i)))

this works just fine and you can still evaluate this. thank you very much!

If there's an easier way, let me know.

This may well be a case of the blind leading the partially sighted,
but for what it's worth my answer is ``Yes, but it's a kludge.''
One needs to use substitute, it seems to me.

E.g.:

e1 <- expression((x+y)^2)
e2 <- expression(1/(x^2 + y^2))
e3 <- as.expression(substitute(a+b,list(a=e1[[1]],b=e2[[1]])))
e3
D(e3,"x")
D(e3,"y")

Older and wiser heads may provide you with better counsel.

cheers,

Rolf Turner
