At each stage, the analysis was repeated with different values of K (range 1 15) to discover the value with the highest estimate of log-likelihood probability (ln Pr(X| K)) of the data.
Difference from true log HR: Mean difference between the estimate of the log HR or log OR and the true log HR across the 1000 simulations.
These applications have emphasized estimates of log volume and weight, but wildlife applications require estimates of percent cover, density, size, and length.
Finally, as noted by a referee, certain constraints underlie the estimates of log odds ratios (11), which are reflected by the positivity of the probabilities in (10).
The composition should minimize the errors of regression estimates of LOG ((N0 A,is) and LOG ((N0 B,is) in Eq. R.1.
Estimates of log Kc uncertainty were improved by capturing all data points within experimental errors.
Turning to the spatial distribution of risk in figure 2, there was substantial variation, with estimates of log hazard ranging from −3.44 to 5.87 (left map).
Consistent estimates of Log Likelihood of the data across independent runs were obtained, with a slight variation between runs for K = 5.
In the present case, however, the 2 models are run on the same data and the 2 estimates of log RR are thus dependent.
