Sentence examples for by computing a likelihood from inspiring English sources

We tested this assumption by computing a likelihood ratio test comparing a quadratic model to a linear model and detected no signs of nonlinearity.

Interactions between tertiles of plasma CRP and covariates in the regression models was tested for by computing a likelihood ratio test comparing the statistical fit of models with and without a two-factor interaction term.

We do this by computing a likelihood map for the particular pole locations and goal point in any trial and then normalizing it to produce a probability distribution on the 2D plane as described in Sect.

To transform responses from a population of neurons into quantitative predictions of behavioral sensitivity and choice probabilities, we decoded simulated population activity by computing a likelihood function as in previous studies (Sanger, 1996; Dayan and Abbott, 2001; Jazayeri and Movshon, 2006; Gu et al., 2010; Fetsch et al., 2011).

The log-likelihood (LOD) score threshold was determined by computing a 1,000 permutation test for all traits.

We evaluated all trees in a likelihood framework by computing likelihood scores for all trees using the LG matrix in PHYML v3.0 [ 105] with the following command (phyml -i 01-Input.phy -c 4 -m LG -a e -o lr -f e -u 01-Input.tre -v e -d aa -b 0 -s NNI).

A rough, initial likelihood map is made by computing log likelihood values over a 50 × 50 grid on the [S1, S2] plane.
