Sentence examples for minimum likelihood from inspiring English sources

Finally, this GMM is reduced by hierarchically merging the closest Gaussian pairs; we use the minimum likelihood loss criterion to identify the best Gaussian pairs.

The initial linkage groups were first determined using the "group" application with a minimum likelihood odds (LOD) threshold of 15 and a maximum recombination fraction of 0.35.

SNP markers were added to corresponding bins in JoinMap 4.0 [ 29] with minimum likelihood odd (LOD) score equal to 4. A bin signature comprises the integrated segregation pattern of marker loci, which do not recombine in the RIL population and are thus incorporated in the bin as described in Ren et al. [ 30].

Briefly, genes were added one at a time to the signature, beginning with the one most significantly associated with DR. At each step, signature indices were computed for all possible additions and evaluated by Cox regression analysis to select the optimal order of addition and gene subsets yielding the best overall model fit (that is, minimum likelihood ratio test P-value).

"If this program works and water levels are as expected, we will be able to diminish to a minimum the likelihood of a reduction of consumption by means of blackouts," Mr. Parente said today.

We note that the range of the log-likelihood can be limited, because the maximum log-likelihood is zero and the minimum log-likelihood can be given by the case of the uniform distribution for p i (x ).

The minimum log-likelihood difference between the maximum likelihood tree and trees not supporting the basal position of cartilaginous fishes is 18.3 ± 13.1.

The techniques for unsupervised classification include clustering techniques like the ones used in unsupervised classification (maximum likelihood, minimum distance, k-means, ISODATA etc).

Confidence values for these relationships were high (>99%) using three phylogenetic methods (maximum likelihood, minimum evolution, and Bayesian inference) in five of the seven analyses (Fig. 1).

All three programmes (maximum likelihood, minimum evolution and neighbour-joining) show that the coelacanth Dnmt3a is clustered with tetrapods' Dnmt3a, but not with other fishes' Dnmt3a.

While neighbor joining, maximum likelihood, minimum evolution and parsimony methods do not find any significant bootstrap support for the placement of L. welshimeri in the phylogeny, the Bayesian analysis supports placement of L. welshimeri as a basal taxon to the L. innocua/ L. marthii/ L. monocytogenes clade with a highly significant posterior probability (100%).
