ILR: Isometric logratio

Description

Computation of a single isometric logratio (ILR)

Usage

ILR(data, numer=NA, denom=NA, weight=TRUE)

Arguments

data

A compositional data frame or matrix

numer

Vector of parts in the numerator

denom

Vector of parts in the denominator

weight

Logical indicating if a varying weight is returned (default:TRUE). If FALSE, a weight based on equally-weighted parts is returned. Alternatively a positive weight can be specified.

Value

LR

The isometric logratio (ILR)

LR.wt

The weight assigned to the ILR

Details

The function ILR computes a single isometric logratio based on the specified numerator and denominator parts that define the two geometric means in the ratio.
