LETTERS jModelTest: Phylogenetic Model Averaging
jModelTest is a new program for the statistical selection of models of nucleotide substitution based on ‘‘Phyml’’ (Guindon and Gascuel 2003. A simple, fast, and accurate algorithm to estimate large phylogenies by maximum likelihood. Syst Biol. 52:696–704.). It implements 5 different selection strategies, including ‘‘hierarchical and dynamical likelihood ratio tests,’’ the ‘‘Akaike information c...
متن کاملPredicting waste generation using Bayesian model averaging
A prognosis model has been developed for solid waste generation from households in Hoi An City, a famous tourist city in Viet Nam. Waste sampling, followed by a questionnaire survey, was carried out to gather data. The Bayesian model average method was used to identify factors significantly associated with waste generation. Multivariate linear regression analysis was then applied to evaluate th...
متن کاملGreedy Model Averaging
This paper considers the problem of combining multiple models to achieve a prediction accuracy not much worse than that of the best single model for least squares regression. It is known that if the models are mis-specified, model averaging is superior to model selection. Specifically, let n be the sample size, then the worst case regret of the former decays at the rate of O(1/n) while the wors...
متن کاملTuned Bayesian Model Averaging
In this paper, we suggest an empirical Bayes-type prior for the model space in Bayesian model averaging (BMA) in a method we call tuned Bayesian model averaging (tBMA). This method relies on leave-one-out cross validation to choose a hyper-parameter that will cause the averaging process to favor either smaller or richer models in the prior distribution over the models. We find that this method ...
متن کاملPolyhedral computational geometry for averaging metric phylogenetic trees
This paper investigates the computational geometry relevant to calculations of the Fréchet mean and variance for probability distributions on the phylogenetic tree space of Billera, Holmes and Vogtmann, using the theory of probability measures on spaces of nonpositive curvature developed by Sturm. We show that the combinatorics of geodesics with a specified fixed endpoint in tree space are dete...
