# Vector Statistics on Centroids In SIBER: Stable Isotope Bayesian Ellipses in R

# on the covariance matrix Sigma, and a vague normal prior on the

ellipses.posterior <- siberMVN(siber.example, parms, priors)


## Introducing the vector-based statistics.

Now we can extract the centroid data and plot the vector data.

# extract the centroids from the fitted model object
centroids <- siberCentroids(ellipses.posterior)

# calculate pairwise polar vectors among all groups
# this is not actually used in this example
angles_distances <- allCentroidVectors(centroids, do.plot = FALSE)


The posterior distributions of the angles can then be visualise as a polar histograms, since the data wrap between $-\pi$ and $\pi$. For some reason, I cant get the gridline associate with $\pi$ to appear.

# = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
# function to do the histograms on each group
my.hist <- function(df){
test <- hist(df$angles, breaks = seq(from = -pi, to = pi, length = 60), plot = FALSE) X <- data.frame(counts = test$counts, mids = test$mids, dens = test$density,
counts.stdzd = test$counts / max(test$counts))

return(X)

}
# = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

# calculate the points for each group's ellipse
hist.by.groups <- angles_distances %>% group_by(comparison) %>%
do(my.hist(.))

all.roses <- ggplot(data = hist.by.groups, aes(x = mids, y = counts.stdzd)) +

facet_wrap( ~ comparison) +

axis.text.y = element_blank()) +
scale_x_continuous( breaks = c(-pi, -pi/2, 0, pi/2, pi),
labels = c("","-\u03C0/2","0","\u03C0/2", "\u03C0"))
print(all.roses)


## Polar density plots

Try some fancy 2-d density plots. These boxes represent the density of the tips of the polar vectors describing the relative position between pairs of individuals. The median vector is shown as an arrow, with the 2-dimensional heatmaps showing where the tip is likely to be. To do this, we have to convert our polar coordinates to cartesian space using the formulae: $(x,y) = (r\cos(\theta),r\sin(\theta))$.

The names for each comparison are not the prettiest or most informative. Here the "X" is superfluous and has appeared via the dplyr code above. The panel label 'X1.1.1.2' reads as community 1 group 1, compared with community 1 group 2. You could relabel the groups in the field cart_positions$comparison below. median_vectors <- dplyr::summarise(group_by(angles_distances, comparison), medAngle = median(angles), medDist = median(distances)) origins <- data.frame(comparison = median_vectors$comparison,
x = 0, y = 0)

ends    <- with(median_vectors, data.frame(comparison = comparison,
x = medDist * cos(medAngle),
y = medDist * sin(medAngle)))

# = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
# generate the start and end points of the medians for the arrows
for_arrows <- dplyr::bind_rows(origins, ends)

# rename the comparison label for nice plot labels below
# aa <- unlist(strsplit(as.character(for_arrows$comparison), "[.]")) # aa <- aa[seq(3,length(aa),5)] # for_arrows$comparison2 <- factor(aa)

# = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
# create the cartesian points for the estimated tips of the arrows
cart_positions <- with(angles_distances, data.frame(x = distances * cos(angles),
y = distances * sin(angles),
comparison = comparison ))

# rename as above
# bb <- unlist(strsplit(as.character(angles_distances$comparison), "[.]")) # bb <- bb[seq(3,length(bb),5)] # cart_positions$comparison2 <- factor(bb)

# = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
# plot it
