When Relative and absolute information matter: compositional predictor with a total in generalized linear models

The analysis of Compositional Data (CoDa) consists in the study of the relative importance of parts of a whole rather than the size of the whole, because absolute information is either unavailable or not of interest. On the other hand, when absolute and relative information are both relevant, resear...
