Using a nonrecursive formula to determine cladogram probabilities.
Three properties of bifurcating branching diagrams that are used for representing a specific number of taxa are (1) the number of possible arrangements, (2) the number of possible topologies, and (3) the probabilities of formation according to particular models of cladogenesis. Of these, the probabilities have received the least attention in the literature. Indeed, many biologists would be asto...
متن کاملA Haar wavelets approach to Stirling's formula
This paper presents a proof of Stirling's formula using Haar wavelets and some properties of Hilbert space, such as Parseval's identity. The present paper shows a connection between Haar wavelets and certain sequences.
متن کاملTree split probabilities determine the branch lengths
The evolution of aligned DNA sequence sites is generally modeled by a Markov process operating along the edges of a phylogenetic tree. It is well known that the probability distribution on the site patterns at the tips of the tree determines the tree and its branch lengths. However, the number of patterns is typically much larger than the number of edges, suggesting considerable redundancy in t...
متن کاملNote on Inversion Formula to Determine Binary Elements by Astrometry
Simplified solutions to determine binary elements by astrometry were obtained in terms of elementary functions (Asada et al. 2004), and therefore require neither iterative nor numerical methods. In the framework of the simplified solution, this paper discusses the remaining two parameters of the time of periastron passage and the longitude of ascending node in order to complete the solution. We...
متن کاملUsing ecological niche modeling to determine avian richness hotspots
Understanding distributions of wildlife species is a key step towards identifying biodiversity hotspots and designing effective conservation strategies. In this paper, the spatial pattern of diversity of birds in Golestan Province, Iran was estimated. Ecological niche modeling was used to determine distributions of 144 bird species across the province using a maximum entropy algorithm. Richness...
