Fits bounded and wrapped Brownian motion models

Description

Fits a multi-rate discrete-state-dependent Brownian motion model using the discrete approximation of Boucher & Demery (2016).

Usage

	fitmultiBM(tree, x, y=NULL, model="ER", ncat=1, ...)

Arguments

tree	object of class "phylo".
x	continuous character data in a vector.
y	optional discrete character, normally in the form of a factor or character vector.
model	discrete character evolution model. (E.g., "ER", "SYM", "ARD".)
ncat	number of rate categories (if hidden rates).
...	optional arguments.

Details

Optional arguments.

Value

An object of class "fitmultiBM".
