ImportanceVal: Importance Values (IV) of diversity metrics

In GabrielNakamura/Dimensionality_package: Package to compute dimensionality, alpha and beta measures of biodiversity

Description

Importance Values (IV) of diversity metrics

Usage

ImportanceVal(matrix.M, scale = TRUE, method = "max", stopRule = TRUE)

Arguments

matrix.M	Matrix containing diversity metrics (columns) values for each sample (lines)
scale	Logical. If TRUE (default) the diversity metrics are scaled for maximun values of each metric
method	Method used to scale matrix M, default is scaling each diversity metric by their maximmun value
stopRule	Logical. If TRUE (default) a stop rule are used to select only the axis of the PCA that matched the rule (Kaiser-Gutmann criterion)

Value

A list of length 3 containing: 1- The IV for each diversity metric (IV.obs_stopRule if stopRule = TRUE) 2- The proportion of variation accounted by each metric in each axis 3- The correlation (Pearson) among all metrics
