  taxanames = NULL,
  x_time,
  subject_id,
  metadata,
  ini_time = min(x_time),
  end_time = max(x_time),
  percent_indv = 0.7,
  min_obs = 3
)

Value

Examples

data(ecam_filtered, package = "coda4microbiome")   # load the data

x=x_ecam # microbiome abundance
x_time = metadata$day_of_life    # observation times
subject_id = metadata$studyid   # subject id
ini_time = 0
end_time = 360

data_filtered<-filter_longitudinal(x,taxanames,x_time, subject_id, metadata,
                                              ini_time, end_time, min_obs=4)
