Overview

About

Maintained by Amandine GilletFirst published 2024-08-212 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Computes the optimal number of regions (or subdivisions) and their position in serial structures without a priori assumptions and to visualize the results. After reducing data dimensionality with the built-in function for data ordination, regions are fitted as segmented linear regressions along the serial structure. Every region boundary position and increasing number of regions are iteratively fitted and the best model (number of regions and boundary positions) is selected with an information criterion. This package expands on the previous 'regions' package (Jones et al. (2018) doi:10.1126/science.aar3126) with improved computation and more fitting and plotting options.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("MorphoRegions", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("aagillet/MorphoRegions")

Development version from aagillet/MorphoRegions. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-morphoregions

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-MorphoRegions

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-MorphoRegions

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
