Modeling evolution in paleontological time-series (alternate paramaterization)
This package facilitates analysis of paleontological sequences of trait values from an evolving lineage.  Functions are provided to fit, using maximum likelihood, evolutionary models including unbiased random walks, directional evolution, stasis and Orstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) models.  This package performs many of the same functions as the package paleoTS, but does so using a different parameterization of the evolutionary models.

paleobioDB version 0.1 has 19 functions to wrap each endpoint of
the PaleobioDB API, plus 8 functions to visualize and process the fossil
data. The API documentation for the Paleobiology Database can be found in
<http://paleobiodb.org/data1.1/>.
