plotOverall: Overall per simulation-null-metric plot test

In metricTester: Test Metric and Null Model Statistical Performance

Description

This function provides one of many ways of summarizing and considering simulation results.

Usage

plotOverall(simulation.list)

Arguments

simulation.list

A summarized results list such as one output from reduceResults(). See examples.

Details

This function provides one way of summarizing and considering simulation results. It takes as input a vector of 0s, 1s and 2s (corresponding to within, less, and greater than the 95% CIs, respectively) for all plots from a given simulation-null-metric combination, and determines how many plots overall deviated beyond expectations. A number of utility functions used for that goal are also defined but not exported in this function.

Value

A data frame summarizing the total number of plots tested and how many of these deviated above (significantly overdispersed) or below (significantly clustered) the 95% CI for each simulation, null, metric combination.
