Assessing Phenotypic Correlation through the Multivariate Phylogenetic Latent Liability Model.
Understanding which phenotypic traits are consistently correlated throughout evolution is a highly pertinent problem in modern evolutionary biology. Here, we propose a multivariate phylogenetic latent liability model for assessing the correlation between multiple types of data, while simultaneously controlling for their unknown shared evolutionary history informed through molecular sequences. T...
متن کاملA latent variable model for multivariate discretization
We describe a new method for multivariate discretization based on the use of a latent variable model. The method is proposed as a tool to extend the scope of applicability of machine learning algorithms that handle discrete variables only.
متن کاملAssessing environmental contamination of River Ganga using correlation and multivariate analysis
The aim of this study was to assess the environmental impact of socio-cultural practices on the water quality of River Ganga at the foothills of the Garhwal Himalayas in Uttarakhand State, India. The physico-chemical parameters that contributed to the temporal variation and pollution in the river were identified in this study. Principal component analysis (PCA) and Cluster analysis (CA) were us...

متن کاملPhylogenetic shadowing through model selection
Motivation: In comparative genomics, phylogenetic shadowing is the procedure of highlighting alignment segments exhibiting unusual rates of sequence evolution, presumably due to purifying selection or adaptation. Phylogenetic shadowing has been extremely useful in delineating putative functional elements in the human genome, by juxtaposition with other primate and mammalian genomes. Results: We...
