The approach employs a distributed, steady-state genetic algorithm, with a fitness function incorporating a prior over the space of possible grammars.
To mitigate this artifact, the MMS-OMP algorithm can incorporate a prior on the continuity of the frequency spectrum of the sources because of the joint frequency processing technique.
The type of the regression obtained in SLP training should be controlled by the sort of cost function as well as by training parameters (the number of iterations, learning step, etc).. Whitening data transformation prior to training the perceptron is a tool to incorporate a prior information into the prediction rule design, and helps both to diminish the generalization error and the training time.
From the results of experiment 1 we concluded that subjects could learn to properly incorporate a prior into their strategy, and the approximate number of trials that were required.
Because maximum likelihood does not incorporate a prior distribution, any effects of the prior on branch length estimates seen in Bayesian analyses should not be observed using ML.
We extend the previous EM and likelihood formulation to incorporate a prior probability for the viral population and compute the maximum a-posteriori estimate, rather than the MLE.
The Bayesian setup enables to incorporate a prior for the number of QTL and for the distribution of QTL effects [ 2].
Again, a Bayesian approach provides an easy way to deal with zero-inflated hierarchical count data by incorporating a prior for Π0 generally beta prior or a uniform prior when no information is available).
A Bayesian network from the lactation dataset was generated incorporating a prior knowledge network (Additional file 2) with experimental data, wherein node (i.e. mediator) interactions were portrayed as directed edges implying likely causal relationships.
For example, by incorporating a prior noise-distribution to improve the parameter estimation in the commonly used CAGED model (Cluster Analysis of Gene Expression Dynamic, Wangg et al. achieved more functional and meaningful clusters, as validated by Gene Ontology [ 43].
