| B2i | R Documentation |
Coefficients of log of parts in a balance matrix, (+1) for numerator and (-1) for denominator, are transformed into the corresponding isometric log-ratio (ilr) coefficients
B2i(bal, balnames=FALSE)
bal |
a (D-1 x D) balance matrix with cells +1, 0 or -1. |
balnames |
logical, if TRUE, balance names are attributed to ilr transforms; if FALSE (default) ilr transforms are numbered ilr1 to ilrD1, where D1=D-1 and D is the number of parts. |
Two scalars multiplying positive and negative cells respectively are defined for each row of the matrix bal in such a way that the resulting matrix defines the ilr transformation to apply to the log of a compositional vector. The output transformation matrix is transposed for application to a compositional dataset where the compositions are the rows.
a D \times (D-1) matrix giving the coefficients of the ilr transforms
