In some association studies, such as those that use random effect models for example, the only input that differs from one AIP to another is the similarity (covariance) matrix built for the tested location.
With the assistance of the expert's judgment, an arrangement of correlation matrices was built for all components in a level and then change individual correlation judgments into proportion scale estimations (Kannan et al., 2008).
Meanwhile, binary adjacency matrices were built for each subject by applying three different cut-off values (0.1, 0.15 and 0.25) to the correlation matrix.
Dispersal constraint matrices were built for six time intervals, based on tectonic plate movement: 0 3 MYA, 3 14 MYA, 14 50 MYA, 50 66 MYA, 66 94 MYA, and 94 133.27 (root age) MYA.
In this scheme, an interference matrix is built for each group of K subcarriers that form a tile or cluster.
GMMs with diagonal covariance matrix were built for every category while testing consisted of a simple comparison of log-likelihoods.
A genomic relationship matrix was built for each of the 26 autosomes using only the SNPs mapped to each of the chromosomes.
A correlation matrix was built for the Pearson's Coefficient among the HI, the smoothed dengue incidence rate, and the sociodemographic indicators.
For each pre-miR sequence, a first-order Markov transition matrix was built for each pre-miR and was used to generate 1,000 random nucleotide sequences of equivalent length and dinucleotide sequence composition.
A position weight matrix (PWM) was built for each of our motif sets and the various occurrences of the previously published motifs [ 17].
