Compositional Covariance Shrinkage and Regularised Partial Correlations

Suzanne Jin, Cedric Notredame, Ionas Erb

We propose an estimation procedure for covariation in wide compositional data sets. For compositions, widely-used logratio variables are interdependent due to a common reference. L…

Power Transformations of Relative Count Data as a Shrinkage Problem

Ionas Erb

Here we show an application of our recently proposed information-geometric approach to compositional data analysis (CoDA). This application regards relative count data, which are,…

Aitchison's Compositional Data Analysis 40 Years On: A Reappraisal

Michael Greenacre, Eric Grunsky, John Bacon-Shone +2

The development of John Aitchison's approach to compositional data analysis is followed since his paper read to the Royal Statistical Society in 1982. Aitchison's logratio approach…

A Critique of Differential Abundance Analysis, and Advocacy for an Alternative

Thomas P Quinn, Elliott Gordon-Rodriguez, Ionas Erb

It is largely taken for granted that differential abundance analysis is, by default, the best first step when analyzing genomic data. We argue that this is not necessarily the case…

The Information-Geometric Perspective of Compositional Data Analysis

Ionas Erb, Nihat Ay

Information geometry uses the formal tools of differential geometry to describe the space of probability distributions as a Riemannian manifold with an additional dual structure. T…

Partial Correlations in Compositional Data Analysis

Ionas Erb

Partial correlations quantify linear association between two variables adjusting for the influence of the remaining variables. They form the backbone for graphical models and are r…
