permiv | R Documentation |
Randomizes group assignments for all permutations based on ranked values of the environmental gradient, then calls the appropriate matrix-based IndVal function.
permiv(grp, spp, ivTot = ivTot, nPerm = 250)
grp |
A vector of binary (0,1) assignments indicating group membership for a single partition of nrows in 'spp' according to a ranks of an environmental variable. |
spp |
A site-by-taxon matrix of taxa counts at each sampling location. |
ivTot |
A logical indicating whether IndVal scores should be calculated using total relative abundance or the mean relative abundace originally proposed by Dufrene and Legendre (1997). |
nPerm |
The number of permutations to be performed. |
This function handles the randomization portion of the permutation procedure, and then serves as a wrapper for 'indvalp' and 'indvalps' (depending on the value of 'ivTot'), which estimate change-point distributions across all permutations. The output is the same as 'indvalp' and 'indvalps' because the function simply passes their products on.
A matrix (ivmax) of IndVal maxima with nrow equal to the number of permutations and ncol equal to the number of taxa in 'spp'.
