[R-sig-phylo] PGLS vs OUwie?

2015-05-05 Thread William Gearty
Hi all,
This may be a very basic question, but I have been racking my brain since
my advisor asked me yesterday in our meeting.
What are the fundamental differences (if any) between GLS (PGLS) and
something like ouch or OUwie?
If there is already literature related to this, please feel free to just
point me in that direction.
Thanks in advance,
Will

Re: [R-sig-phylo] Off-diagonal elements in multivariate OU evolution

2015-05-05 Thread Julien Clavel
Hi Cody,
Yes you can use this approach to test whether there is a significant 
interaction between traits toward the optimum. Alternatively you can sum the 
log-likelihood of two separate univariate analysis for the independent 
analysis.The estimated variance-covariance matrix is probably near singularity, 
have you try different methods for computing the likelihood? (although it may 
take some times for a 6000 tips tree...)
Best,
Julien

 Subject: [R-sig-phylo] Off-diagonal elements in multivariate OU evolution
 
 Hi all,
 
 I have a large dataset (~6000 species) including two traits of interest. I
 am hoping to test whether the extant patterns are more consistent with each
 trait evolving independently under OU processes (with 1 regime per trait)
 or if the traits have co-evolved in some manner (i.e. the traits influence
 one another's optima).
 
 I have been trying to use mvMORPH and mvSLOUCH to fit two models (one of
 independent evolution, and one of dependent evolution) using the code
 below. My plan was then to compare AIC values from the two models. From
 what I gather, the off-diagonal elements of the alpha and sigma matrix
 determine whether there is co-evolution of the trait optima, and the
 stochastic element of the OU processes, respectively.
 
 ##in mvMORPH
 
 independ.evolv-mvOU(tree, data, model=OU1,
 param=list(alpha=constraint, sigma=constraint))
 depend.evolv-mvOU(tree, data, model=OU1, param=list(alpha=NULL,
 sigma=NULL))
 
 ##and a similar thing in mvSLOUCH
 independ.evolv-ouchModel(tree, data, regimes=NULL, Atype=Diagonal,
 Syytype=Diagonal)
 depend.evolv-ouchModel(tree, data, regimes=NULL, Atype=DecomposableReal,
 Syytype=UpperTri)
 
 My questions are:
 
 1. Is my interpretation of these models correct? Specifically I am
 concerned about the interpretation of the alpha matrix. I am somewhat
 confused as to how the off-diagonal alpha elements influence the OU process
 when I have specified 1 regime per trait.
 
 2. I am frequently encountering errors during model fitting in mvMORPH of
 the typeError in loglik_mvmorph(dat, matEstim$V, matEstim$W, n, p, error =
 error,  :   the leading minor of order 5833 is not positive definite. I
 gather this has to do with a problem in the matrix decomposition, but is
 there a practical solution?  I have tried some of the other 'decomp'
 options but this does not seem to help.
 
 3. I had a few emails with Krzysztof Bartoszek (author of mvSLOUCH) and he
 suggested that such a large dataset would be problematic. Would this be an
 issue for mvMORPH as well? If so, is there a generally acceptable
 work-around for reducing the size of comparative data sets to accommodate
 models like this?
 
 Many thanks in advance

Dear Will,

I suggest that you read the Appendix in this paper Lavin et al. (2008) 
(available on my website) and then the original papers by Butler and King on 
OUCH, etc.

Hi William,

  

�ouch� and �OUwie� are based on Generalized Least
Squares (GLS). Indeed, �generalized� mean that we can fit a linear model with
between species hierarchical structure ( given e.g. by interspecies evolutionary
variances-covariances according to an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process)

 

Nevertheless, it�s true that in most papers you
will often find the term (P)GLS when a linear model with one response variable 
and
one predictor variable is fitted. Methods such as �ouch� and �OUwie� fit a model
without intercept (or predictor variable) but there is no differences in the
statistical machinery behind�

 

Best,

 

Julien
