aniDom (version 0.1.5)

Inferring Dominance Hierarchies and Estimating Uncertainty

Description

Provides: (1) Tools to infer dominance hierarchies based on calculating Elo scores, but with custom functions to improve estimates in animals with relatively stable dominance ranks. (2) Tools to plot the shape of the dominance hierarchy and estimate the uncertainty of a given data set.
