Dear R users,
Any idea of how to calculate an area of an overlap between two functions? The
only R build in function that I found is I Similarity Statistic for Quantifying
Niche Overlap and I am really not sure if this function is producing exactly
what I am interested in since I was plotting functions and often got confused
results (for example: got high value for the overlap of one pair and low for
the other pair, while from the plot it looked like the first pair was
overlapping better.) Can anyone please explain what's the reason behind such a
behaviour? And does anyone has a suggestion of what function could be used for
a calculation of an overlap area? The problem with 'Istat' function is also
that it requires both data sets to have the same length, while I would be more
interested in a function that enables overlap calculation even if data sets
have different length. Looking forward to hearing from you! Have a good day. Ana
library(SDMTools)
a <- matrix(runif(30))
b <- matrix(runif(30))
Istat(a,b)
