Modeling Multivariate Origins Determinants - Evolutionary Lineages in Ecology

CRAN Package

Perform multivariate modeling of evolved traits, with special attention to understanding the interplay of the multi-factorial determinants of their origins in complex ecological settings (Stephens, 2007 doi:10.1016/j.tree.2006.12.003). This software primarily concentrates on phylogenetic regression analysis, enabling implementation of tree transformation averaging and visualization functionality. Functions additionally support information theoretic approaches (Grueber, 2011 doi:10.1111/j.1420-9101.2010.02210.x; Garamszegi, 2011 doi:10.1007/s00265-010-1028-7) such as model averaging and selection of phylogenetic models. Accessory functions are also implemented for coef standardization (Cade 2015), selection uncertainty, and variable importance (Burnham & Anderson 2000). There are other numerous functions for visualizing confounded variables, plotting phylogenetic trees, as well as reporting and exporting modeling results. Lastly, as challenges to ecology are inherently multifarious, and therefore often multi-dataset, this package features several functions to support the identification, interpolation, merging, and updating of missing data and outdated nomenclature.
