Overview

About

Maintained by Blas M. BenitoFirst published 2019-05-172 releasesCRAN page ↗

Quantifies ecological memory in long time-series using Random Forest models ('Benito', 'Gil-Romera', and 'Birks' 2019 doi:10.1111/ecog.04772) fitted with 'ranger' (Wright and Ziegler 2017 doi:10.18637/jss.v077.i01). Ecological memory is assessed by modeling a response variable as a function of lagged predictors, distinguishing endogenous memory (lagged response) from exogenous memory (lagged environmental drivers). Designed for palaeoecological datasets and simulated pollen curves from 'virtualPollen', but applicable to any long time-series with environmental drivers and a biotic response.

Install

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

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

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

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-memoria

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-memoria

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-memoria

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