An R package to interpret a Tweedie generalized linear model (GLM) or generalized additive model (GAM) involving multiple classes as an estimate of proportions for each class, implicitly involving a multivariate-logit transformation for parameters and predictions. This approach generalizes the Poisson-to-multinomial transformation to allow for non-integer responses, and can analyze either pre-processed (transformed to proportions) or raw (zero-inflated positive real values) data.
This approach is helpful, e.g., when analyzing diet samples that are heavily zero inflated without pre-processing the samples prior to analysis. In these cases, the Tweedie distribution can be interpreted mechanistically as a thinned and double-marked Poisson point process representing foraging processes.
