Relative Importance Analysis in R

A statistical method called relative importance analysis (RIA) is used to assess the relative contribution of independent variables to the variance of a dependent variable. It is used to evaluate the relative weights of predictor variables in a model. It enables us to recognize the predictors that are most crucial in illuminating the variation in the response variable. It provides an effective method for determining the primary causes of a phenomenon and is applicable to a number of disciplines, including marketing,…

Was a small-brained human relative the world’s first gravedigger—and artist? | Science

A trio of papers posted online and presented at a meeting today lays out an astonishing scenario. Roughly 240,000 years ago, they suggest, small-brained human relatives carried their dead through a labyrinth of tight passageways into the dark depths of a vast limestone cave system in South Africa. Working by firelight, these diminutive cave explorers dug shallow graves, sometimes arranging bodies in fetal positions and placing a stone tool near a child’s hand.…
