CRSP data are based on calendar dates, while Compustat data are based on fiscal period dates. To assist with the matching of these two databases by date, all Compustat files now contain fiscal period end date variables. See the CCM sample programs "cstann2a.sas" and "cstann2b.sas" in the /wrds/crsp/samples directory of the WRDS Unix server for a demonstration of how this can be done.

The company identification variables, CNUM for COMPUSTAT and CUSIP for CRSP, are generally identical among CRSP and COMPUSTAT data files; however, a CNUM is only the first six characters of a CUSIP, which denotes a particular company. For example, the CUSIP for IBM is 45920010 and the CNUM for IBM is 459200. See similar questions...

Ans. Once the data is available with the homogeneous time intervals for a number of periods then there are number of time series techniques. Depending upon the past data behavior to build a time series model is build so as to forecast the independent variable for number of periods ahead. Time series techniques, neural network based applications as well as econometric systems basically fall broadly in the area of forecasting. See similar questions...

The initial time invested in developing the analysis program took weeks. Once done, the major task becomes typing in the scores. Since we generally get scores in a timely fashion, the remaining tasks are left to the computer. See similar questions...

Yes, indirectly using the Microsoft Decision Tree. You can create a model that will do predictions on a time series like the one below, but it requires some data manipulation. What you need to do is to create cases that using relative time steps as input values and use decision trees to predict the current year's value. You can use however many previous data steps you wish in your prediction. See similar questions...

After scaled log2 ratio data is generated a modified ACME algorithm (Method Enzymol. 2006; 411:270-282) is employed where a fixed-length window is slid along the length of each chromosome, testing at each probe using a one-sided Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) test whether the surrounding window is enriched for high-intensity probes relative to the rest of the array. Each probe has a corresponding p-value score (-log10) and a threshold is set to select regions that are enriched (i.e. See similar questions...

No, we are not plotting the raw data in a time series. We are interested in whether there is a persistent departure of the whole network's data from expectation. The graphs used most often show the history of accumulating deviations of an average score across the eggs. This is a type of graph used in control engineering, in which it is easy to see changes in the behavior of data. A description of the calculations may help. See similar questions...

To integrate GPS or other data, we use a PC that has two ports or more. Many PCs these days have two PCMCIA slots that can take two ports each, providing up to four ports to merge into a single data stream. All commercial GPS units (Trimble, Novatel, etc.) have standard data output that can be merged with the GEM output in this way. For a long survey, the WinGEM software allows "remote mode" where the GEM data go directly to the PC, bypassing the internal data logger. See similar questions...

You can schedule a private party at almost any time you desire, as long as it does not interfere with an existing session on the calendar we are open, and you give us enough notice (usually 3 days at the least). We do not have specific times for private parties already listed on the Calendar as we wanted to create a totally flexible time table for our customer parties. [back] See similar questions...

ExBoot possesses incremental backup function; those data of incremental backup are being saved at hidden folder. Therefore, you must reveal those hidden folders first. Please follow below steps Step 2：click "View" -> choose "Show hidden files and folders" of "Hidden files and folders"->Apply Step 3：Go back to PC/notebook, choose USB IDE hard drive of ExBoot then you will find "$ExBoot" hidden folder. You can find file you want within $ExBoot folder. See similar questions...

There are two possible ways to do intra-dataset comparisons to get a t-test result. The first is to use program 3dttest. At present, this requires breaking the input dataset into pieces, 1 sub-brick per dataset, since 3dttest can only read 1 sub-brick datasets. You could do this break up with the command line program 3dbucket, used once for each sub-brick to be extracted. This would be ugly, but possible. See similar questions...
