estNBparamsNoLab {RCM}R Documentation

A function to estimate the NB-params ignoring the taxon labels

Description

A function to estimate the NB-params ignoring the taxon labels

Usage

estNBparamsNoLab(design, thetasMat, muMarg, psi, X, nleqslv.control,
  initParam, n, v, dynamic, envRange, preFabMat)

Arguments

design

an n-by-v design matrix

thetasMat

A matrix of dispersion parameters

muMarg

an offset matrix

psi

a scalar, the importance parameter

X

the data matrix

nleqslv.control

a list of control elements, passed on to nleqslv()

initParam

a vector of length v of initial parameter estimates

n

an integer, the number of samples

v

an integer, the number of parameters per taxon

dynamic

a boolean, should response function be determined dynamically? See details

envRange

a vector of length 2, giving the range of observed environmental scores

preFabMat

a pre-fabricated auxiliary matrix

If dynamic is TRUE, quadratic response functions are fitted for every taxon. If the optimum falls outside of the observed range of environmental scores, a linear response function is fitted instead

Value

a v-by-p matrix of parameters of the response function
