Dear Group, I would like to find a Baysian clustering method useful to assign a posterior probability of group membership into k groups for all individuals in my dataset. See data description below. Your suggestions are much appreciated.
Many Cheers, Keith Data description: I have sampled almost 2000 individual birds (single species representing two subspecies or phenotypes) across Sweden. All individuals are adult males. Although this is one species, in middle of Sweden there is a (migratory) divide where the southern individuals presumably migrate to West Africa and north of the divide they presumably migrate to East Africa. There is a zone of overlap approximately 300 km wide overlapping the migratory divide. Variables: Wing (mm) - continuous Tail (mm) - continuous Bill-head (mm) - continuous Tarsus (mm) - continuous Mass (g) - continuous Colour (9 levels) - categorical Stable carbon-isotopes (parts per mil) - continuous Stable nitrogen-istopes (parts per mil) - continuous SNP WW1 (0, 1, 2) - molecular marker, 0 and 2 are fixed and 1 is heterozygote SNP WW2 (0, 1, 2) - molecular marker, 0 and 2 are fixed and 1 is heterozygote ******************************************************************************************* Keith Larson, PhD Student Evolutionary Ecology, Lund University Sölvegatan 37 223 62 Lund Sweden Phone: +46 (0)46 2229014 Mobile: +46 (0)73 0465016 Fax: +46 (0)46 2224716 Skype: sternacaspia FB: [email protected] _______________________________________________ R-sig-ecology mailing list [email protected] https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-ecology
