SSD Model Averaging
August 18, 2023 @ 10:30 AM – 12:00 PM AEST
Virtual interactive tutorial with Professor David Fox (Free with purchase of online course “Introduction to Model Averaging and ssdtools in R”)
Interested in model averaging? Want to know how model weights to apply and use model averaging with speciecs sensitivity distributions (SSDs)? Want to learn about SSD model fitting using ssdtools and the interactive, online version – shiny(ssdtools)?
Join Professor David Fox in this live, interactive tutorial in which he walk you through the basics of fitting SSDs in R. Starting with the R package fitdistrplus, you will be shown how to extract AIC values and other information from a fitted SSD and use those to compute the model weights for each component SSD. Using R, you will be shown how to compute a model-averaged HCx value b y first writing your own code, and then using the ssdtools package. Topics to be covered include:
