CalcAsymptoticDist: Calculates the asymptotic distribution from an initial...

In MSEtool: Management Strategy Evaluation Toolkit

Calculates the asymptotic distribution from an initial distribution vector (V) and a markov movement matrix (M) (rows sum to 1)

Description

Calculates the asymptotic distribution from an initial distribution vector (V) and a markov movement matrix (M) (rows sum to 1).

Usage

CalcAsymptoticDist(M, V = NULL, nits = 50, plot = F)

Arguments

M	A square markov movement matrix M of nareas rows and nareas columns (rows sum to 1)
V	An optional vector nareas long of initial fractions by area (if unspecified the calculation will start from a uniform distribution)
nits	An integer number of iterations for multiplying V by M to get the asymptotic distribution (~50 is usually enough)
plot	Should the convergence to a stable distribution be plotted?
