Then I found the Jimenez-Valverde, Lobo and Hortal paper in Community Ecology (2009) titled "The effect of prevelence and its interaction with sample size on the reliability of species distribution models". Using a virtual species, they found that biased prevalence is only significant with extremely unbalanced samples, given many caveats (such as reliable training data & relevant predictors). In practice, they recommend using as large a sample size as possible, to improve model stability & improve sample coverage over the environmental and spatial gradients of the study area. This includes using as many absences as possible, down to a prevalence of 0.01. They include discussion of appropriate use of probabilities (since they are skewed due to prevalence) & appropriate assessment of model performance (e.g. don't use kappa).<br></div></div></span></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Well.... one thing very important to remind is that you can't generalized with virtual species. Virtual species are usually built within a particular context. They are used to understand what could be a problem and sometimes propose solutions. Concluding that one should use 0.01 is non-sense because it will always depend on the species, study area, history and everything. </div><div>I would recommend to look at other papers as well (Philipps et al. 2009, Witz & Guisan, ect...) which may help giving a broader picture. </div><br><blockquote type="cite"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-size: medium; "><div ocsi="0" fpstyle="1" style="word-wrap: break-word; "><div style="direction: ltr; font-family: Helvetica; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 10pt; ">Anyway - it is a very interesting paper & made me want to try modeling my species using a prevalence of 0.1.

The general evaluation of the model is sufficient bearing in mind that the model try to fit the absence as absence not potentially as presence. This is the thing I like using weights. You give pseudo-absence do the models, but you let him know you do not trust them too much and at least less than the presence. This is, to my point of view, relatively logical. AT the same time, if you have "true" absence, you could give them more weights than the other pseudo-absences. </div><br><blockquote type="cite"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-size: medium; "><div ocsi="0" fpstyle="1" style="word-wrap: break-word; "><div style="direction: ltr; font-family: Helvetica; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 10pt; ">Right now I'm assessing the stability of my 304/304 models to PA pulls, since 304 PAs samples a small number of possible absences (total grid cells in my study area = 6808).</div></div></span></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-size: medium; "><div ocsi="0" fpstyle="1" style="word-wrap: break-word; "><div style="direction: ltr; font-family: Helvetica; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 10pt; "><br>With real (not virtual) data sets, there are obviously many interacting factors that influence final CV/sens/spec scores.

There are as many "final models" as PA sets. </div><div>If you want to use several sets of PA yourself, make predictions from every model (using the Projections function for instance on the overall area). Then you'll need to combine them yourself. </div><div>There are several alternatives for combining projections from different models from different PA sets and from different repetitions from cross-validation:</div><div><br></div><div>Either you create a simple average and standard deviation from projections in probability values. You can then derive a confidence interval if you want.</div><div>You could also perform a weighted sum using weights derived from TSS or ROC for instance. It will give more weights to the best models (from the cross-validation column in Evaluation.results.TSS). </div><div>You could also perform what we usually call a committee averaging where you let the models vote for a presence or an absence. For this, you do not use the probability of occurrence anymore, but rather the presence-absence data directly. You then sum the presence-absences maps. If you have 5 repetitions, 5 models and 5 sets of PA, you thus have at maximum 125. When the sum if equal to 125, it means all repetitions, PA and models agree to say this is a presence, and when you got zero, it means the reverse obviously. Between 0 and 125 will give you the probability of agreement from the models for an absence (after rescaling everything by 125 for instance). This ensemble approach is very close to the Bayesian philosophy with posterior probabilities. I really like this approach, much better than looking at probability of occurrences themselves. </div><div><br></div><div>Now, I am not entirely sure why you want to keep your prevalence. Regression like models are not really good with artificial unbalanced dataset (prevalence different than zero). They are supposed to work well if the prevalence is the true prevalence of the species. This is the case with a perfect stratified sampling, but this is absolutely not when using random sets of pseudo-absence. </div><div>Therefore, the results are usually anyway similar. The main difference being the "true" probability of the models which will be higher for the pseudo-absence are downweighted. however, when they are transformed between 0 and 1, results are usually very similar.</div><div>I think Witz and Guisan recently show that using weighted pseudo-absence was better. We also have a paper close to be accepted with Methods in Ecology and Evolution showing the same with virtual datasets. </div><div><br></div><div>Hope it helps,</div><div><br></div><div>Wilfried</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><br><blockquote type="cite"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; font-size: medium; "><div><div style="direction: ltr; font-family: Helvetica; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 10pt; "><br>I hope this isn't too confusing!<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>Thank you!<br>Brenna<br><br><br><div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; "><hr tabindex="-1"><div id="divRpF114927" style="direction: ltr; "><font color="#000000" face="Tahoma" size="2"><b>From:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Bruno Lafourcade [brunolafourcade@aol.com]<br><b>Sent:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Thursday, April 21, 2011 11:37 PM<br><b>To:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="mailto:wilfried.thuiller@ujf-grenoble.fr" target="_blank">wilfried.thuiller@ujf-grenoble.fr</a>; Brenna Forester<br><b>Cc:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="mailto:biomod-commits@r-forge.wu-wien.ac.at" target="_blank">biomod-commits@r-forge.wu-wien.ac.at</a><br><b>Subject:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Re : [Biomod-commits] prevalence and pseudoabsences<br></font><br></div><div></div><div><font color="black" face="arial" size="2"><font color="black" face="arial" size="2"><div><br></div><div><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Hi Brenna,<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br><br>The pseudo-absence procedure within the Models function is automated and generates a<br>weighting to give a prevalence of 0.5 for each run.<br><br>To make sure that the prevalence doesn't change, you have to build your own pseudo-absence<br>data outside of the Models function (even prior to Initial.State).
