Description Author(s) References See Also
RMC is a package that fits and predicts reversible Markov models with a particular parameterisation described in Foster et al (2009). The core work-horse of the estimation routines is the function RMC.mod
, but also see MVfill
for (single) imputing of associated chained covariates, and RMC.pred
for prediction of the local area stationary distribution.
Also contained in the RMC package is a bunch of methods that provide graphical diagnostics for this class of models (see Foster and Bravington 2010). This is performed through the functions diagnos
for calculation of residuals, diagnos.envel
for calculation of residuals and simulation envelopes, and hrplot
for subsequent plotting.
