The underlying idea of our mechanism to accelerate likelihood computations is that, we do not need to conduct computations nor allocate memory for data that is not present in gappy phylogenomic alignments.
Finally, RAxML-Light also uses 256-bit wide AVX vector intrinsics to accelerate likelihood computations on Intel Sandy-Bridge and AMD Bulldozer CPUs that will become available in many HPC systems over the next 2 3 years.
By deploying this rule set, we can significantly reduce the number of floating point operations required to compute the phylogenetic likelihood function and thereby accelerate likelihood-based tree searches by up to one order of magnitude.
We are lucky that our climate is relatively benign, with no great extremes, massive tornadoes or hurricanes, although with climate change accelerating, the likelihood of disastrous weather events, such as major flooding, is on the increase.
In the latest forecast from the National Institute of Economic and Social Research (NIESR), the thinktank revised its predictions for a hike to the first three months of next year, instead of in 2019 – accelerating the likelihood that mortgage holders will soon be facing higher bills.
"The conclusions are clear: climate risks are accelerating in their likelihood and severity," said retired rear admiral David Titley of the US navy.
Britain's economy grew twice as fast as previously reported in the second quarter as construction work accelerated, increasing the likelihood of a rise in interest rates later this year.
It estimates how much individuals' social learning rates are accelerated, or the likelihood of learning a novel task solution increased, when their associates demonstrate this new information (represented by the parameter s; see the Supplemental Experimental Procedures).
More troubling to some experts is the likelihood of an accelerating loss of quality scientists.
Future projections highlight the likelihood of an accelerating loss of strength, with traffic restrictions to limit loading required in 2014 in the worst-case scenario, followed by full closure as early as 2020.
We used Randomized Accelerated Maximum Likelihood in RAxML version 7.2.6 [ 105, 106].
