SOWH.test: Swofford-Olsen-Waddell-Hillis Test

In phangorn: Phylogenetic Reconstruction and Analysis

Swofford-Olsen-Waddell-Hillis Test

Description

This function computes the Swofford–Olsen–Waddell–Hillis (SOWH) test, a parametric bootstrap test. The function is computational very demanding and likely to be very slow.

Usage

SOWH.test(x, n = 100, restricted = list(optNni = FALSE), optNni = TRUE,
  trace = 1, ...)

Arguments

x	an object of class "pml".
n	the number of bootstrap replicates.
restricted	list of restricted parameter settings.
optNni	Logical value indicating whether topology gets optimized (NNI).
trace	Show output during computations.
...	Further arguments passed to "optim.pml".

Details

SOWH.test performs a parametric bootstrap test to compare two trees. It makes extensive use simSeq and optim.pml and can take quite long.

Value

an object of class SOWH. That is a list with three elements, one is a matrix containing for each bootstrap replicate the (log-) likelihood of the restricted and unrestricted estimate and two pml objects of the restricted and unrestricted model.

Examples

# in real analysis use larger n, e.g. 500 preferably more
## Not run: 
data(Laurasiatherian)
dm <- dist.logDet(Laurasiatherian)
tree <- NJ(dm)
fit <- pml(tree, Laurasiatherian)
fit <- optim.pml(fit, TRUE)
set.seed(6)
tree <- rNNI(fit$tree, 1)
fit <- update(fit, tree = tree)
(res <- SOWH.test(fit, n=100))
summary(res)
