Overview

About

Maintained by Jose Salgado-RojasFirst published 2021-12-156 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

This uses a mixed integer mathematical programming (MIP) approach for building and solving multi-action planning problems, where the goal is to find an optimal combination of management actions that abate threats, in an efficient way while accounting for spatial aspects. Thus, optimizing the connectivity and conservation effectiveness of the prioritized units and of the deployed actions. The package is capable of handling different commercial (gurobi, CPLEX) and non-commercial (symphony, CBC) MIP solvers. Gurobi optimization solver can be installed using comprehensive instructions in the 'gurobi' installation vignette of the prioritizr package (available in https://prioritizr.net/articles/gurobi_installation_guide.html). Instead, 'CPLEX' optimization solver can be obtain from IBM CPLEX web page (available here https://www.ibm.com/es-es/products/ilog-cplex-optimization-studio). Additionally, the 'rcbc' R package (available at https://github.com/dirkschumacher/rcbc) can be used to obtain solutions using the CBC optimization software (https://github.com/coin-or/Cbc). Methods used in the package refers to Salgado-Rojas et al. (2020) doi:10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2019.108901, Beyer et al. (2016) doi:10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2016.02.005, Cattarino et al. (2015) doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0128027 and Watts et al. (2009) doi:10.1016/j.envsoft.2009.06.005. See the prioriactions website for more information, documentations and examples.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("prioriactions", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("prioriactions/prioriactions")

Development version from prioriactions/prioriactions. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-prioriactions

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-prioriactions

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-prioriactions

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
