A reinitialisation procedure allows to improve the interval estimation and convergence rate.
Note that alpha values do not affect the estimation and convergence rate, and that this convergence condition (Eq. (9)) is sufficient to obtain a robust result.
Furthermore, the combined data and methods employed have provided a novel opportunity to tackle phylogenetic reconstruction, divergence date estimation and substitution rate heterogeneity.
The first set of simulations and Figure 2 demonstrate that branch length estimation can depend on the estimation of heterotachy and rate variation.
James is a voracious consumer of social science, and he likes to frame these issues with opposing concepts: pattern matching and rate estimation.
In multistate contexts, they provide useful new tools for analytical projections and rate estimation.
The specific uptake and production rates were evaluated from daily nutrient and metabolite concentration measurements, using an extended Kalman-filter for noise reduction and rate estimation.
Best-fitting models were calculated and used for all divergence dating and rate estimation.
Therefore, the current molecular estimation of divergence time and rate of Tricyrtis provides additional information for measuring the speciation rate of the genus and for evaluating its macroevolution.
The context of our discussion is the usefulness of dynamic populations with estimation of incidence rates and rate ratios for many environmental, occupational, and also pharmacoepidemiologic problems in cohort studies or case-control studies.
