Sentence examples for ultimate probabilities from inspiring English sources
We show herein that the ultimate probabilities of the different classes of codon mutation are complicated, nonlinear functions of the Taq misincorporation probabilities.
Using the first few moments of the offspring distribution, one can obtain bounds on the ultimate probability of extinction (Courtois et al. 2006; Daley and Narayan 1980).
This theory predicts that the ultimate fixation probability of a novel neutral mutation (which is initially present as a single copy) is equal to 1/(2 Ne), where Ne is the effective size of the population (Kimura 1983).
ASTEROID strikes are the ultimate in low-probability, high-impact events.
At the ultimate level, the probability to receive future help should be increased by preferably helping needy social partners for such discrimination mechanism to evolve.
The high probability of ultimate rejection that arises from relatively low per-encounter rejection probabilities also has important implications for within-nest interactions among nestmates.
Hence, one major difference between the outbreeding and inbreeding strategies is that the former leads to a very high probability of ultimate extinction, whilst the latter would lead to an increased probability of formation of saeptating group(s) within the population, that will ultimately cause the elimination of the ancestral group by one or more descendant new species.
Rather surprisingly, under these assumptions the probability of ultimate ruin as a function of the initial fortune x is exactly the same as the stationary probability that the waiting time in the single-server queue with Poisson input exceeds x.
Inevitably no matter how big the wins, however large the initial streak, the slow steamroller of probability guarantees ultimate failure.
A principal problem of insurance risk theory is to find the probability of ultimate ruin.
In a random-mating population with N diploid individuals, k = 2Nux, where u is the neutral mutation rate per gamete per unit time (time measured in the same units as for k) and x is the probability of ultimate fixation of a neutral mutant.
