rcpp_calc_rowsums_for_COOweights_columnar {cladoRcpp}R Documentation

Calculate sum of weights for each ancestral state

Description

This is a C++ implementation of rcpp_calc_anclikes_sp_rowsums. It should be substantially faster, as it requires only one pass through COO_weights_columnar.

Usage

rcpp_calc_rowsums_for_COOweights_columnar(COO_weights_columnar,
  numstates = 1 + max(sapply(X = COO_weights_columnar, FUN = max)[1:3]),
  printmat = TRUE)

Arguments

COO_weights_columnar

Transition probability matrix in COO-like format as 4 columns: ancestral index, left index, right index, conditional probability given ancestral states. (assuming likelihood of descendants is 1). Indexes are 0-based. Keep in mind that cladogenesis matrices exclude the null state (a range of 0 areas), so if your states list starts with the null range (as is typical/default in DEC-style models) then to get the R 1-based state indices requires e.g. COO_weights_columnar[[1]] + 2.

numstates

The user should provide the number of states (WITHOUT counting the null range), in case they are not all present in COO_weights_columnar. If empty, the function assumes that the highest index represents the last state, and adds 1 to get the number of states. This may be a hazardous assumption.

printmat

Should the probability matrix output be printed to screen? (useful for debugging, but can be dramatically slow in R.app for some reason for even moderate numbers of states; perhaps overrunning the line length...)

Value

rowsums A vector of size (numstates) giving the sum of the relative probabilites of each combination of descendant states, assuming the probabilities of the left- and right-states are all equal (set to 1). This is thus the sum of the weights, and dividing by this normalization vector means that the each row of the speciation probability matrix will sum to 1. Default assumes the weights sum to 1 but this is not usually the case. Rsp_rowsums need only be calculated once per tree+model combination, stored, and then re-used for each node in the tree, yielding significant time savings.
