Description Usage Arguments Value Note Author(s) References See Also Examples

This function implements the untransformed version of the species richness estimation procedure outlined in Rocchetti, Bunge and Bohning (2011).

1	wlrm_untransformed(input_data, ...)

`input_data`	An input type that can be processed by `convert()` or a `phyloseq` object
`cutoff`	Maximum frequency count to use
`print`	Deprecated; only for backwards compatibility
`plot`	Deprecated; only for backwards compatibility
`answers`	Deprecated; only for backwards compatibility

An object of class alpha_estimate, or alpha_estimates for phyloseq objects

This estimator is based on the negative binomial model and for that reason generally produces poor fits to microbial data. The result is usually artificially low standard errors. Caution is advised.
