Decomposing biodiversity data using the Latent Dirichlet Allocation model, a probabilistic multivariate statistical method

We propose a novel multivariate method to analyse biodiversity data based on the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) model. LDA, a probabilistic model, reduces assemblages to sets of distinct component communities. It produces easily interpretable results, can represent abrupt and gradual changes in c...
