Description

This function calculates P(data|range,dp), i.e. the probability of some detection and taphonomic control counts, given the true geographic range/state, and dp, a detection probability (and, optionally, a false detection probability, fdp).

  Pdata_given_rangerow(range_as_areas_TF, detects_df_row,
    controls_df_row, mean_frequency = 0.1, dp = 1, fdp = 0,
    return_LnLs = FALSE)

Arguments

range_as_areas_TF

The list of areas (as TRUE/FALSE) in this geographic range/state.

detects_df_row

A column/vector of detection counts, as produced from a row of the output from read_detections.

controls_df_row

A column/vector of detection counts, as produced from a row of the output from read_controls.

mean_frequency

This is the proportion of samples from the taphonomic control group that will truly be from this OTU, GIVEN that the OTU is present. This could be estimated, but a decent first guess is (total # samples of OTU of interest / total # of samples in the taphonomic control group where the OTU is known to be present). All that is really needed is some reasonable value, such that more sampling without detection lowers the likelihood of the data on the hypothesis of true presence, and vice versa. This value can only be 1 when the number of detections = the number of taphonomic control detections, for every OTU and area. This is the implicit assumption in e.g. standard historical biogeography analyses in LAGRANGE or BioGeoBEARS.

dp

The detection probability. This is the per-sample probability that you will correctly detect the OTU in question, when you are looking at it. Default is 1, which is the implicit assumption in standard analyses.

fdp

The false detection probability. This is probability of falsely concluding a detection of the OTU of interest occurred, when in fact the specimen was of something else. The default is 0, which assumes zero error rate, i.e. the assumption being made in all historical biogeography analyses that do not take into account detection probability. These options are being included for completeness, but it may not be wise to try to infer mean_frequency, dp and fdp all at once due to identifiability issues (and estimation of fdp may take a very large amount of data). However, fixing some of these parameters to reasonable values can allow the user to effectively include beliefs about the uncertainty of the input data into the analysis, if desired.

return_LnLs

If FALSE (default), return exp(sum(LnLs of data in each area)), i.e. the likelihood of the data, non-logged. If TRUE, return the LnLs of the data in each area.

Details

The idea of taphonomic controls dates back at least to work of Bottjer & Jablonski (1988). The basic idea is that if you have taxa of roughly similar detectability, then detections of other taxa give some idea of overall detection effort. Obviously this is a very simple model that can be criticized in any number of ways (different alpha diversity in each region, different detectability of individual taxa, etc.), but it is a useful starting point as there has been no implementation of any detection model in historical/phylogenetic biogeography to date.

One could imagine (a) every OTU and area has a different count of detections and taphonomic control detections, or (b) the taphonomic control detections are specified by area, and shared across all OTUs. Situation (b) is likely more common, but this function assumes (a) as this is the more thorough case. Behavior (b) could be reproduced by summing each column, and/or copying this sum to all cells for a particular area.

Value

likelihood_of_data_given_range The (non-logged!) likelihood of the data given the input range, and the detection model parameters. If return_LnLs=TRUE, returns LnLs_of_data_in_each_area, the LnLs of the data in each area.
