RANDOM CLADISTICS
... from phylogeny. The rejoinder that the question is whether characters are random with respect to a particular phylogenetic hypothesis merely raises the question as to just how “random” is defined (see also Goloboff, 1991b). If it is meant that the characters are uninformative about the truth of the ...

... if this coefficient is insignificant. In doing so, they potentially miss important conditional relationships between their variables (74). In short, they recommend including a product term xz in linear models where interaction between x and z is suspected, then examining a plot of ∂y/∂x and its 95% ...

Recall that arcsin(·) is another symbol for sin−1 (·). 13. It is common in biological applications to assume a N (θ, θ2 ) model for ...

If you pick a rather large value for , then there will be a rather large likelihood of the resulting interval estimate being wrong. ...

(Note that if two elements x, y are different then Pr[h(x) = h(y)] is 0 when the hash is real-valued. Thus the only possibility of a collision ar ...
