In contrast, in standard one-matrix models, such as WAG, the site-specific biochemical preferences are mediated mostly by the relative exchangeability parameters, and not by the stationary probabilities, which are in general close to, if not set equal to, the global empirical frequencies.
Markov chains and other related forms of matrix-based models, such as Leslie models in population dynamics, are already widely in use (e.g. [ 5– 7]), yet in many cases the number of modeled states is comparatively small and/or a major part of the transitions are considered impossible.
As information on the relations is stored into the covariance matrices of the graphical models, such hypothesis corresponds to the hypothesis of homogeneity of the covariance matrices.
In the context of Markov models, such a matrix is referred to as a probability transfer matrix.
Existing variations of the weight matrix model include specialisations such as consensus sequences [ 28] or palindromic weight matrices [ 29], and also generalisations such as models that allow for dependencies between non-neighbouring bases [ 30] or models of dimers binding to two half-sites that feature certain spacing rules [ 31, 32].
We used LG, a model of amino acid replacement matrix with improved performance over other models such as JTT and Whelan and Goldman (Le and Gascuel 2008), and optimized for both invariant sites and across-the-tree variation in rate of evolution.
Age- or stage-structured (Leslie or Lefkovitch) matrix population models are conceptually clear and relatively easily parameterised, with well-characterised properties; as such, the use of matrix models is particularly widespread in ecology [4], [9].
We propose algorithm method to compute the moments of various models such as Gaussian and Vandermonde matrices.
Substitution of A by matrix H enables this method to be easily expanded to more complex models, such as multivariate or random regression models [ 18].
