alpha

Hosmer-Lemeshow Goodness of Fit (GOF) Test

Description

Hosmer-Lemeshow Goodness of Fit (GOF) Test.

Usage

hoslem.test(x, y, g = 10)

Arguments

x

a numeric vector of observations, binary (0/1).

y

expected values.

g

number of bins to use to calculate quantiles. Needs to be at least 2. The degrees of freedom of the test is g-2 but the number of bins might also depend on the data (i.e. due to identical quantile values that lead to empty bins). In case when the number of bins does not equal g, the degrees of freedom will depend on the number of bins that is less than g. In such case a warning is produced.

Details

The Hosmer-Lemeshow test is a statistical test for goodness of fit for logistic regression models.

Value

A list with class "htest" containing the following components:

statistic

the value of the chi-squared test statistic, (sum((observed - expected)^2 / expected)).

parameter

the degrees of freedom of the approximate chi-squared distribution of the test statistic (g - 2).

p.value

the p-value for the test.

method

a character string indicating the type of test performed.

data.name

a character string giving the name(s) of the data.

observed

the observed frequencies in a g-by-2 contingency table.

expected

the expected frequencies in a g-by-2 contingency table.

Make a Used-Available Data Frame

Description

Make a used-available data frame from a presence-absence type data.

Usage

makeUsedAvail(x, ...)

## Default S3 method:
makeUsedAvail(x, y, ...)

## S3 method for class 'formula'
makeUsedAvail(formula, data = parent.frame(), ...)

Arguments

x

a matrix or data frame.

y

a vector with 0/1 entries, 1s are taken as used observations.

formula

two sided model formula of the form y ~ x.

data

data.

...

other arguments.

Value

The function returns a data frame, where used and available portions of the input data are bound on top of each other, the first column refers to y, where used (1) and available (0) locations are indicated different from the input values. All locations in the input data are treated as available (0), while only nonzero observations in y are treated as used (1).

Examples

(x <- data.frame(species=rep(1:0,each=4), var1=1:8, var2=11:18))
makeUsedAvail(species ~ var1 + var2, x)

Marginal Effect Plots

Description

Scatterplot of marginal effects based on fitted model objects.

Usage

mep(object, ...)

## Default S3 method:
mep(object, which=NULL, link=NULL,
    level=0.95, unique=10, n=25, minbucket=5, digits=4,
    col.points, col.lines=c(2, 2), pch=19, lty=c(1, 2), lwd=c(2,2),
    ask, subset=NULL, ylab, ...)

Arguments

object

a fitted model object.

which

numeric, logical, or character. Indices for the variables in the model frame if only one or a subset is desired.

link

character accepted by make.link, optional argument to determine scaling. It is guessed when value cannot be determined based on family(object)$link (see Details).

level

numeric [0, 1], the confidence level required.

unique, digits

numeric, the number of unique points above which bins are used. If the number of unique values is less than or equal to this number, unique values are used without binning. Unique values are subject to rounding to digits.

n, minbucket

number of bins (n) to be used in quantile estimation when variable is not treated as unique points. minbucket is the minimum number of points within each bin. n is decreased until minbucket condition is satisfied.

col.points, pch

color and type of points to be plotted.

col.lines, lty, lwd

color, type, and width of quantile lines to be plotted. The 1st value correspond to the median, the 2nd value to the upper and lower quantiles, respectively.

ask

logical. If TRUE, the user is asked before each plot, see par(ask=.).

subset

an optional vector specifying a subset of the data to be used for plotting.

ylab

character or expression, optional y axis label.

...

other possible arguments passed to graphical functions.

Details

The input object must have a fitted and model.frame method, and possibly a well identifiable family/link component (family(object)$link). In the absence of family/link information, the range of the fitted value will be used to guess the scaling (identity, log, or logit) unless directly supplied via the link argument.

Fitted values (f(x) = f(x_1,...,x_i,...,x_p); i = 1,...,p) are plotted against x_i. The visual display is determined by the type of x_i (un-ordered factor, ordered factor, unique numeric values, binned numeric values). For each unique vale or bin, the median and confidence intervals (quantiles corresponding to level) of f(x) are calculated. Binned values are smoothed by lowess unless n < 3.

Jitter is added to factor and unique value types. Jitter is calculated based on kernel density.

The model frame includes the response variable as well. Plotting f(x) as a function of the observations might be a useful visualization too to indicate goodness of fit or the lack of it.

Value

The produces one or several marginal plots as a side effect. Returns a list of quantiles of fitted values corresponding to binned/unique values of variables in the input object.

Resource Selection (Probability) Functions for Use-Availability Data

Description

Resource Selection (Probability) Functions for use-availability wildlife data as described in Lele and Keim (2006) and Lele (2009).

rsf(formula, data, m, B = 99, inits, method = "Nelder-Mead",
control, model = TRUE, x = FALSE, ...)

rspf(formula, data, m, B = 99, link = "logit", inits,
method = "Nelder-Mead", control, model = TRUE, x = FALSE, ...)

rsf.fit(X, Y, m, link = "logit", B = 99,
inits, method = "Nelder-Mead", control, ...)

rsf.null(Y, m, inits, ...)

Arguments

formula

two sided model formula of the form y ~ x, where y is a vector of observations, x is the set of covariates.

m

argument describing the matching of use and available points, see Details.

data

data.

B

number of bootstrap iterations to make.

link

character, type of link function to be used.

inits

initial values, optional.

method

method to be used in optim for numerical optimization.

control

control options for optim.

model

a logical value indicating whether model frame should be included as a component of the returned value

x

logical values indicating whether the model matrix used in the fitting process should be returned as components of the returned value.

Y

vector of observations.

X

covariate matrix.

...

other arguments passed to the functions.

Details

The rsf function fits the Exponential Resource Selection Function (RSF) model to presence only data.

The rspf function fits the Resource Selection Probability Function (RSPF) model to presence only data Link function "logit", "cloglog", and "probit" can be specified via the link argument.

The rsf.fit is the workhorse behind the two functions. link="log" leads to Exponential RSF.

The rsf.null function fits the 'no selection' version of the Exponential Resource Selection Function (RSF) model to presence only data.

LHS of the formula data must be binary, ones indicating used locations, while zeros indicating available location.

All available points are used for each use points if m=0 (global availability). If m is a single value, e.g. m=5, it is assumed that available data points are grouped in batches of 5, e.g. with IDs c(1,2) for used point locations and c(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2) for available locations (local availability, matched use-available design). Similarly, a vector of matching IDs can also be provided, e.g. c(1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2) by combining the above two. This potentially could allow for unbalanced matching (e.g. c(1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2)) and for easier subsetting of the data, but comes with an increased computing time. Note, the response in the LHS of the formula should be coded as c(1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0) for all of the above examples. When m is defined as a mapping vector or the value is 0, the order of course does not matter. However, ordering matters when m is constant because that implies a certain structure.

For model description and estimation details, see Lele and Keim (2006), Lele (2009), and Solymos and Lele (2016).

Value

A list with class "rsf", "rsf.null", or "rspf" containing the following components:

call

the matched call.
