likRatePhylo: Log-likelihood rate estimation for traits and phylogenies

In PuttickMacroevolution/motmot: Models of Trait Macroevolution on Trees

Description

This function calculates the log-likelihood, phylogenetic mean, and Brownian variance for a trait and a phylogeny transformed according to variation in relative rates.

Usage

likRatePhylo(
  rateData,
  rate = NULL,
  common.mean = FALSE,
  lambda.est = TRUE,
  lambda = 1,
  meserr = FALSE,
  sigmaScale = NULL
)

Arguments

rateData	an object of class rateData
rate	a vector of relative rate parameters. The length of the vector is equal to the number of rates being estimated. If rate=NULL then rates are equal.
common.mean	a logical specififying whether each rate category should have its own mean (common.mean=FALSE) or all categories should have the same mean (common.mean=FALSE). See Thomas et al. (2009) for a discussion on the impact of assumptions about mean on rate estimates.#'
lambda.est	Logical. Fit Pagel's lambda.
lambda	Logical. Numeric value for lambda from 0-1.
meserr	Logical. Logical. Include measurement error.
sigmaScale	Logical. Scalar for measurement error relative to tree.

Value

ll log-likelihood of the model

mu phylogenetically corrected mean(s)

s2 Brownian variance

Note

The means are output as treatment contrasts.

Examples

data(anolis.tree)
data(anolis.data)

## Convert data to class rateData with a rateMatrix object as input
anolis.rateMatrix <- as.rateMatrix(phy=anolis.tree, x="geo_ecomorph", data=anolis.data)

anolis.rateData <- as.rateData(y="Female_SVL", x="geo_ecomorph", 
rateMatrix = anolis.rateMatrix, phy=NULL, data=anolis.data, log.y=TRUE)

## Calculate phylogenetic mean, variance, log likelihood for a model where the first 

# mean only
phyloMean(rateData=anolis.rateData, rate = c(1,2,0.1,1), common.mean = FALSE)

# variance only
phyloVar(rateData=anolis.rateData, rate = c(1,2,0.1,1), common.mean = FALSE) 

# mean, variance and log-likelihood
likRatePhylo(rateData=anolis.rateData, rate = c(1,2,0.1,1), common.mean = FALSE)
