simulate.manyglm: Simulate from manyglm objects

In ecostats: Code and Data Accompanying the Eco-Stats Text (Warton 2022)

Simulate from manyglm objects

Description

Simulates new responses for a manyglm object.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'manyglm'
simulate(object, nsim = 1, seed = NULL, newdata = object$data, ...)

Arguments

object	a manyglm object from the mvabund package.
nsim	number of simulated datasets to generate.
seed	a seed for random number generation (defaults to NULL)
newdata	a new dataset with predictors to simulate new values for. Defaults to data model was fitted to.
...	additional optional arguments.

Details

Returns a data frame containing the response and predictors. This function just calls simulate.cord from the ecoCopula package, on a cord object constructed under default settings – that is, it fits a copula latent variable model with two latent variables, then uses this to simulate new data.

Value

Simulates a data frame of new values for responses. If multiple datasets are requested, these are stacked one under the other (see example(simulate.cord).
