Transmission scenarios in which there is a higher "true" proportion of unique cases and those in which transmission is concentrated in large clusters tend to demonstrate less error than those in which there are fewer unique cases and more small clusters.
Unfortunately, the minimum ratio is an underestimate of the true proportion value p A for simulated noisy data and for observed data [as Gosink et al. (2007) establish].
The probability of early stopping was 99% for a true surviving proportion of 0.05, 88% for a proportion of 0.1, 31% for a proportion of 0.2 and 6% for a proportion of 0.3.
We computed the trends of the precision (proportion of predicted orthologs that are true orthologs) and the recall (proportion of true orthologs that are correctly predicted) as a function of the true proportion of non-1-to-1 orthology relations, which increases as the gene duplication rate increases.
Although 41% of smokers who responded to the questionnaire reported that they would like to speak to a smoking cessation advisor, this figure is almost certainly an overestimate of the true proportion.
