[adegenet-forum] Help to get membership probabilities from DAPC analyses

[Thibaut Jombart]

Hi Catalina,

I'm sorry for the long delay in the reply, your post was held amongst
hundreds of moderated messages. In case it would still be relevant, you
want to use 'predict' and get the $posterior from the output. For instance:

> data(H3N2)
> pop(H3N2) <- factor(H3N2$other$epid)
> dapc1 <- dapc(H3N2, var.contrib=FALSE, scale=FALSE, n.pca=150, n.da=5)

> pred <- predict(dapc1)
> names(pred)
[1] "assign"     "posterior"  "ind.scores"
> head(pred$posterior)

*Important disclaimer*: these values are group assignment probabilities
defined based on a geometric criteria. They are not probabilities that
genotypes come from each group as in STRUCTURE, so they cannot be directly
compared. We are currently developing a STRUCTURE equivalent approach for
this (though much faster), which will be an actual likelihood. Depending on
how time-sensitive your work is, you may want to look into this new
approach. If so, be in touch via email.

All the best
Thibaut
