Methods for analysis of compositional data including robust methods (doi:10.1007/978-3-319-96422-5), imputation of missing values (doi:10.1016/j.csda.2009.11.023), methods to replace rounded zeros (doi:10.1080/02664763.2017.1410524, doi:10.1016/j.chemolab.2016.04.011, doi:10.1016/j.csda.2012.02.012), count zeros (doi:10.1177/1471082X14535524), methods to deal with essential zeros (doi:10.1080/02664763.2016.1182135), (robust) outlier detection for compositional data, (robust) principal component analysis for compositional data, (robust) factor analysis for compositional data, (robust) discriminant analysis for compositional data (Fisher rule), robust regression with compositional predictors, functional data analysis (doi:10.1016/j.csda.2015.07.007) and p-splines (doi:10.1016/j.csda.2015.07.007), contingency (doi:10.1080/03610926.2013.824980) and compositional tables (doi:10.1111/sjos.12326, doi:10.1111/sjos.12223, doi:10.1080/02664763.2013.856871) and (robust) Anderson-Darling normality tests for compositional data as well as popular log-ratio transformations (addLR, cenLR, isomLR, and their inverse transformations). In addition, visualisation and diagnostic tools are implemented as well as high and low-level plot functions for the ternary diagram.

Install

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

install.packages("robCompositions", 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("matthias-da/robCompositions")

Development version from matthias-da/robCompositions. 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-robcompositions

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-robCompositions

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-robCompositions

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