sim3: Sim3 Co-occurrence Randomization Algorithm

Description

Randomizes a binary matrix speciesData by reshuffling elements within each column equiprobably.

Usage

sim3(speciesData)

Arguments

speciesData
binary presence-absence matrix (rows = species, columns = sites).

Value

Returns a binary presence-absence matrix with the same dimensions and colsums as the input matrix.

Details

This algorithm assumes species are equiprobable, but preserves differences among sites (= column sums).
