or those who have been struggling with the installation of GGobi and the rggobi package under Windows: a major update of GGobi 2.1.9 is that GTK+ has been bundled with GGobi, so the installation of GTK+ is no longer required (I recommend you to uninstall it if it is not used elsewhere in your system);
Hansong Wang, our biostats professor here at the Hawaii Cancer Center, generously gave me some R code that goes through a SNP annotation file (i.e. a mapfile) and selects SNPs that are at least a certain specified distance apart. You might want to do t...

While working with some pitch location data recently, I ran across something strange when using my new computer (with R-2.12.2 64-bit) versus my work computer (with R-2.11.1 x64). Both are 64-bit computers, but I got the new one for portability (it's a laptop) and speed.
Anyway, I had been doing some work in the office with Pitch F/X data,...

In my last two posts I talked about Ordinary Least Squares, then extended this discussion to the multiple predictor case and briefly talked about some of the problems that may arise. These problems can include omitted variable bias, heteroskedasticity, non-normality, and multicollinearity. Most of these problems are relatively minor in practice and have easy fixes,...

Aaron Koblin’s Sheep Market visualization is an awesome use of Mechanical Turk. But it’d be even more awesome if the grid were ordered, so inspired by the use of eigenfaces in facial recognition, I decided to try projecting the sheep … Continue reading →
