Given a taxon set S, we define the phylogeny that reveals the correct relationships among the taxa in S as the "true" phylogeny on S, denoted as Ttrue.
A complete quartet topology set, denoted as Q T true, was then induced by this phylogeny.
We denoted as N the true total number of children <5 years of age hospitalized with influenza during the surveillance period in Davidson County.
When the decision device decides H1 but H0 is true, denoted as P(H1 H0), this is called the probability of a false alarm (Pfa).
The results are given in Tables 3 and 4, summarizing for all estimators and both sample sizes median absolute deviations (MAD) between the estimated and the true curves, as well as proportions of the 95% confidence intervals that contained the approximated true curve (denoted as coverage of the 95% CI).
These are denoted as pseudo twins, order twins and true twins, respectively.
The hidden state at segment t is denoted as xg(t), which is the true copy number of segment t and is unknown.
The numbers of true positives, true negatives, false positives, and false negatives are denoted as TP, TN, FP, and FN, respectively.
It is therefore reasonable to assume that the measured time delays, denoted as ζ p, are perturbed versions of their true counterparts.
These seven patterns can be divided into two cases, in which either (1) one of the three models identified is the true model (patterns 4, 5, and 7; denoted as T in Figs. 2, 3, 4, 5) or (2) none of the three models identified is the true model (patterns 1, 2, 3, and 6; denoted as F in Figs. 2, 3, 4, 5).
