Incidence-based unweighted naive estimator for predicting the number of new rare species
1 | Pred.Qk.Naive(nT, u, f, k.show = 3)
|
nT |
The number of quadrats of the original sample |
u |
The number of quadrats of an additional sample |
f |
A vector of species frequency counts, i.e., the number of species dectected once (in only one quadrat), the number of species dectected twice (in exactly two quadrats), and so forth. |
k.show |
Display the estimating results of the numbers of new rare species detected in the number of quadrats <= k.show in the additional sample. |
The numbers of new rare species detected in the number of quadrats <= k.show are estimated by the incidence-based unweighted naive estimator and returned.

data(CanadaMite)
## two columns represent two samples of incidence counts
X.merge = CanadaMite
## the first column is treated as the original sample
X.col1 = X.merge[,1]
Xi = X.col1
## Convert species incidence count data to frequency counts data
Q = X.to.f(Xi)
## the number of quadrats in the first sample
nT = 16
## the number of quadrats in the additional sample (i.e., the second column)
