Weighted mean in numpy/python
python,numpy,statistics,mean,weighted
You actually have 2 different questions. How to make data discrete, and How to make a weighted average. It's usually better to ask 1 question at a time, but anyway. Given your specification: xmin = -100 xmax = 100 binsize = 20 First, let's import numpy and make some data:...
How many degrees of freedom R package: 'fGarch'
garchFit uses 4 degrees of freedom by default, specified in the shape parameter, so I'd say if you didn't set it to be estimated with include.shape=TRUE, the degrees of freedom are the default, fixed at 4.
Angular statistics doesn't make sense

The values don't look right Angles that differ by 360 are equivalent. So, -28.8551147 == 331.145, which is the arithmetic mean of the two values you provided. If you would like to ensure that your values are always in [0,360), you should add 360 if the values are less...
Matlab: What are the ways to determine the distribution of the data
matlab,statistics,distribution
If I understand correctly, you are asking how to decide which distribution to choose once you have a few fits. There are three major metrics (IMO) for measuring "goodness-of-fit": Chi-Squared Kolmogrov-Smirnov Anderson-Darling Which to choose depends on a large number of factors; you can randomly pick one or read the...
Random Forest Classifier Matlab v/s Python
python,matlab,machine-learning,statistics,random-forest
The Problem There are many reasons why the implementation of a random forest in two different programming languages (e.g., MATLAB and Python) will yield different results. First of all, note that results of two random forests trained on the same data will never be identical by design: random forests often...
Matlab: trying to estimate multifractal spectrum from time series by histogram box-counting
matlab,statistics,time-series,histogram,fractals
Your code seems to be generally bug-free but I made some changes since you perform needless repetitions over loops (I moved the outer loop inside and "vectorized" it since all moment calculations can be performed simultaneously for a given histogram. Also, it is building the histogram that takes longest). intel...

Find previous hour and next hour in R
Assuming your time were a variable "X", you can use round or trunc. Try: round(X, "hour") trunc(X, "hour") This would still require some work to determine whether the values had actually been rounded up or down (for round). So, If you don't want to have to think about that, you...

R: how to use the bpower function to calculate 2-sample binomial test power
The signature for the function is args(bpower) # function (p1, p2, odds.ratio, percent.reduction, n, n1, n2, alpha = 0.05) so if unnamed, the third parameter will be interpreted as the odds ratio. So yes, you made a mistake in your code. You should explicitly name your parameters to avoid this...
How scipy.stats handles nans?
python,numpy,statistics,scipy,missing-data
You can not mathematically perform a test statistic based on nan. Unless you find proof/documentation of special treatment of nan, you can not rely on that. My experience is that in general, even numpy does not treat nan specially, for example for median. Instead the results are whatever they happen...
How to perform operation on each row in R (apply()?)
You could use apply to generate a list of the Fisher test results: tests <- apply(data2, 1, function(x) fisher.test(matrix(na.omit(x), nrow=2, byrow=TRUE))) Then you could access row-specific tests with standard list indexing tests[[4]] # Fisher's Exact Test for Count Data # # data: matrix(na.omit(x), nrow = 2, byrow = TRUE) #...
missing values when creating training and testing data with caret
You need to use the na.action argument with na.omit of the train function. As the documentation says for na.action (type ?train): A function to specify the action to be taken if NAs are found. The default action is for the procedure to fail. An alternative is na.omit, which leads to...
Error with applying data type in method to variables in main tester class
java,arrays,methods,statistics
There are two errors : First : When you do this - test.findMin(num) you are trying to pass parameter num. But num is not array! It is a number. You probably want to do this : test.findMin(array) Second : You can implicitly convert integer to double, because you can be...
Java: Probability distribution support
You’d be looking at java.lang.math, and from the docs: The class Math contains methods for performing basic numeric operations such as the elementary exponential, logarithm, square root, and trigonometric functions. So in short no. For distributions other than Gaussian you’re going to have to look elsewhere. In terms of third...

Tabulating and collapsing Your example vector is vec <- letters[c(1,2,2,2,3,3,4,5,6)] To get a tabulation, use tab <- table(vec) To collapse infrequent items (say, with counts below two), use res <- c(tab[tab>=2],other=sum(tab[tab<2])) # b c other # 3 2 4 Displaying in two columns resdf <- data.frame(count=res) # count # b...
Generate random numbers with pre-defined median in Matlab ?
matlab,random,statistics,median
Matlab function rand generates (pseudo)-random numbers uniformly distributed on the interval [0,1]. The median of this distribution is 0.5. You can make the median to be m by adding m-0.5 to each number. The function function array = generateNumbers(m, n, medianValue) array = rand(m,n)-0.5 + medianValue; end returns a random...

Standard deviation formula is described in http://www.mathsisfun.com/data/standard-deviation.html So basically you need to say: for i in items sum += [(item - average)^2]/#items Doing it in your sample input: 5 av=5/1=5 var=(5-5)/1=0 5 av=10/2=5 var=(5-5)^2+(5-5)^2/2=0 5 av=15/3=5 var=3*(5-5)^2/3=0 10 av=25/4=6.25 var=3*(5-6.25)^2+(10-6.25)^2/4=4.6875 So in awk we can say: $ awk 'BEGIN {FS=OFS=","}...
R dtw package: cumulative cost matrix decreases at some points along the path?
This is due to the use of a "multi-step" recursion like asymmetricP05. Such a pattern allows the warping path to be composed of long segments, e.g. knight's moves. To verify the monotonicity, you should only consider the starting positions of each of the "knight's moves" - not all of the...

Here is a general approach: pie has a labels parameter so you can just use that, use \n for a line break, and add text under the name barplot has a return value which are the x-coordinates of each bar, so just use text along with the data (for the...
Generalized additive models for calibration
r,statistics,probability,prediction,calibration
The warning is telling you that predict.gam doesn't recognize the value you passed to the type parameter. Since it didn't understand, it decided to use the default value of type, which is "terms". Note that predict.gam with type="terms" returns information about the model terms, not probabilties. Hence the output values...
R optimization with equality and inequality constraints
r,statistics,mathematical-optimization,minimization
On this occasion optim will not work obviously because you have equality constraints. constrOptim will not work either for the same reason (I tried converting the equality to two inequalities i.e. greater and less than 15 but this didn't work with constrOptim). However, there is a package dedicated to this...
Convert list of numbers to percent between positive and negative number
You can increase all number with minimum and convert it to percent. -17+abs(-50) = 33 -50+abs(-50) = 0 100+abs(-50) = 150 120+abs(-50) = 170 5+abs(-50) = 55 20+abs(-50) = 70 After all result should convert like an this: (number / max) * 100 (55 / 170) * 100 = 32.35%...
