GitHub - ghislainv/jSDM: :package: R package for joint species distribution models (original) (raw)
jSDM R Package 
Package for fitting joint species distribution models (JSDM) in a hierarchical Bayesian framework (Warton _et al._2015). The Gibbs sampler is written in C++. It usesRcpp,Armadillo andGSL to maximize computation efficiency.
System requirements
Make sure the GNU Scientific Library (GSL) is installed on your system.
Installation

Or the binary release of jSDM’s development version compiled with R version 4.3.0 can be found here :
Available functions
The package includes the following functions to fit various species distribution models :
| function | data type | data format |
|---|---|---|
| jSDM_binomial_logit() | presence-absence | wide |
| jSDM_binomial_probit() | presence-absence | wide |
| jSDM_binomial_probit_sp_constrained() | presence-absence | wide |
| jSDM_binomial_probit_long_format() | presence-absence | long |
| jSDM_poisson_log() | abundance | wide |
| jSDM_gaussian() | continuous | wide |
