contactTest

Any input will return the error message: "'contactTest' is now 
defunct. Please consider using another contact-comparison function 
instead (e.g., <code><a rd-options="" href="/link/contactCompare_chisq?package=contact&version=1.2.5" data-mini-rdoc="contact::contactCompare_chisq">contactCompare_chisq</a></code>, 
<code><a rd-options="" href="/link/contactCompare_mantel?package=contact&version=1.2.5" data-mini-rdoc="contact::contactCompare_mantel">contactCompare_mantel</a></code>, etc.)."

This DEFUNCT function was used to determine if tracked individuals in an 
 empirical dataset had more or fewer contacts with other tracked 
 individuals/specified locations than would be expected at random. The 
 function works by comparing an empirically-based contactDur.all or 
 contactDur.area function output (emp.input) to the contactDur.all or 
 contactDur.area output generated from randomized data (rand.input).

social-network

Process spatially- and temporally-discrete data into contact and
social networks, and facilitate network analysis by randomizing
individuals' movement paths and/or related categorical variables. To use
this package, users need only have a dataset containing spatial data
(i.e., latitude/longitude, or planar x & y coordinates), individual IDs
relating spatial data to specific individuals, and date/time information
relating spatial locations to temporal locations. The functionality of this
package ranges from data "cleaning" via multiple filtration functions, to
spatial and temporal data interpolation, and network creation and analysis.
Functions within this package are not limited to describing interpersonal
contacts. Package functions can also identify and quantify "contacts"
between individuals and fixed areas (e.g., home ranges, water bodies,
buildings, etc.). As such, this package is an incredibly useful resource
for facilitating epidemiological, ecological, ethological and sociological
research.
