passing model objects to anova()
Hi, I'm fitting a glm to a dataset... > objects() [1] "pop.div.full" "speciation.data" ...and then performing model simplification to give a series of model objects all of which have a common suffix. > objects() [1] "pop.div.full" "pop.div.gp.f.b.hm" [3] "pop.div.gp.fb.hm" "pop.div.same.slopes&...

new R packages for phylogenetic compartive methods
...ngine that mvSLOUCH uses. Given a phylogeny (phylo format), traits' (multivariate) measurements and a user provided model of the traits' evolution the package calculates the likelihood. The family of allowed models is rather general. The package can handle any model for which lineages after speciation do not interact and the density of the transition along a branch is: i) Gaussian ii) the mean at the end of the branch depends linearly on the trait value at the start of the branch iii) the covariance matrix does not depend on the value at the start of the branch The likelihood is calculated in li...

With the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark—that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back.
...dentified by a sharp change in the diversity and abundance of multicellular organisms <http://vesedo.cf/lists/lt.php?id=YUgFAgZVU09RXVEdU1wDX1cNVg> .

CRAN (and crantastic) updates this week
...istics such as powers for estimators of the components of a logistic regression model. * TreePar (1.0) Tanja Stadler http://crantastic.org/packages/TreePar For a given phylogeny on present day data (e.g. species or viruses), a likelihood method is provided where the maximum likelihood speciation and extinction rates are estimated. The method accounts for rate changes and mass extinction events: Time is split into intervals, and in each interval, the rates can be different. Throughout an interval, the rates stay constant. At the end of an interval, a pre-defined fraction of the exta...
