R package

[romainmartinez]

Hi,

Is is expected to make a spm1d package on R?

[0todd0000]

Hi Romain,

We don't have plans at the moment to develop a package for R, but we'd be pleased to consider it if there is enough interest.

Please ask anyone interested in running spm1d in R to add a comment here so we can gauge the level of interest.

Cheers,

Todd

Hi Todd,

I would 100% use the package in R if developed.

Cheers,
Benji

I just wanted to point out that one can easily use the spm1d module from within R thanks to the reticulate package (this requires a python version to be installed on your computer).
An example session in R might look something like this:

library(reticulate)
spm1d = import("spm1d")
dataset = spm1d$data$uv1d$tpaired$PlantarArchAngle()
data = dataset$get_data()
t = spm1d$stats$ttest_paired(data[[1]], data[[2]])
ti = t$inference()
ti
SPM{T} inference field
   SPM.z         :  (1x101) raw test stat field
   SPM.df        :  (1, 9)
   SPM.fwhm      :  20.37196
   SPM.resels    :  (1, 4.90871)
Inference:
   SPM.alpha     :  0.050
   SPM.zstar     :  3.93947
   SPM.h0reject  :  True
   SPM.p_set     :  0.037
   SPM.p_cluster :  (0.037)

Other than replacing the . by $ there is not really much difference. Unfortunatly the plotting does not seam to work. Yet, one can relatively easily write a custom plot function in R.

I see that I'm a little late to the conversation, but I would also love to have an R package for this. I struggle with Matlab and I've been playing around with Python with similar results, but for some reason I'm pretty comfortable in R.

Re: reticulate-Thanks for the suggestion TommyN94.
I've tried to access the spm1d package through Canopy as suggested here: http://www.spm1d.org/install/InstallationPython.html#label-installationpython

I also tried the reticulate function in R and in both cases I receive errors that the package doesn't exist. I have installed Python 3.7, Canopy 2.0, R 1.0.153; I realize that these versions are different than what's suggested so I don't know if that's my issue or something else is going on. I'd appreciate any advice and I appreciate your patience with my novice programming skills.

Thank you for the R feedback, and sorry for the Python errors!

Another way to install spm1d for Python is to download it then run the setup.py script as follows:

• Download and unzip the source code:
  http://www.spm1d.org/Downloads.html

• Open a Terminal (macos, Linux) or a Command Prompt (Windows)

• Navigate to the unzipped directory, for example:

cd /Users/username/Downloads/spm1d-master/

• Run the setup script:

python setup.py install

Then the next time you launch Python you should be able to access spm1d using:

>>>  import spm1d

I would also like to have a spm1d package in R.

[SKATElin215]

I'm interested in an R package as well!

Hi Todd,
I would love to have an r Package too!.
Tks

[GrantDornan]

I would love to have the spm1d package available in R!

Quick tabulation of R requests to-date:
From 2016 to present (2021-03-16): 7 requests
From 2020 to present (2021-03-16): 0 requests

These aren't big numbers, so for now an R-specific package will remain a future possibility pending further interest.

If you are an R user and are looking to use spm1d, please refer to @thomas-neitmann's comment above re: accessing Python functionality in R via the reticulate package.

One extra vote to the R package (a bit late I'm afraid).
I can help with the development if needed

[angelobj]

Another vote!

[EricDugan]

another vote for R package

[SHughes93]

Another vote for R, but can use the python system adequately enough so not a strong need.

These votes keep coming!! R Studio provides a really comfortable environment for analysing gait and other biomechanical data (for me anyway) and the plethora of graphical options for results presentation adds to the attraction. I'm far less comfortable in Python but if no R package emerges I will need get to grips with it
