mal.phi {Biodem} | R Documentation |
Calculates a kinship matrix using the Malecot Migration Model, in the form described by L. B. Jorde 1982.
mal.phi(S, P, N, n)
S |
the sistematic pressure matrix, where the diagonal elements are 1-sk, with sk the sistematic pressure for the k-th population, and the non diagonal elements are 0 |
P |
the column stochastic migration matrix, possibly obtained using col.sto on the "raw" migration matrix |
N |
the vector of effective populations, where each element is the population size for all the n populations divided by 3 |
n |
the number of iterations needed to reach the equilibrium, calculated by the function Mal.eq |
The Malecot model is simply an iterative markow-chain-like process that gives rise to an asymptotic growth curve, so that an equilibrium is reached after a number of iterations.
Returns a square and symmetrical matrix.
