Some other papers
- "The NMMAPSdata Package" vignette (with L. J. Welty), appeared in R News [PDF | software]. A longer version of this vignette (with more examples) is available as a technical report. Support functions referenced in the paper: simple.R | seasonal.R | tdlm.R. Please read the paper before attempting to use these functions.
- "Estimation of the fire interval distribution for Los Angeles County, California" (with F. P. Schoenberg) [PDF]
Random documents
- I've written some notes on using the debugging tools [PDF] in R and on calling C code [PDF] from R. You may find these useful. Unfortunately, I lost the LaTeX source to these files so they are frozen and will eventually be outdated.
- Some slides on classes/methods and lexical scoping [PDF] in R. By the way, lexical scoping is one of the best kept secrets of the R language. It might be the one characteristic that makes R a better language than S itself.
- Some notes on setting up password-less logins on departmental computers.
- Notes on using the new Biostatistics high performance computing cluster (see a picture).
- Some notes on reading large data frames into R.
