چکیده

Maximum parsimony and maximum likelihood are two contrasting approaches for reconstructing phylogenetic trees from sequence and character data. We establish analytic links between these methods (extending connections reported earlier) under the simple Poisson model of substitutions in two settings. First, we show that if the underlying state space is sufficiently large then the maximum likelihood estimate phylogenetic tree is always a maximum parsimony tree for the data. Second, we show that a sufficiently dense sampling of sequences ensures that the most parsimonious likelihood tree is always a maximum parsimony tree.

Assessment of Neonate's Congenital Hypothyroidism Pattern Using Poisson Spatio-temporal Model in Disease Mapping under the Bayesian Paradigm during 2011-18 in Guilan, Iran

Background: Congenital Hypothyroidism (CH) is one of the reasons for mental retardation and defective growth in neonates. It can be treated if it is diagnosed early. The congenital hypothyroidism can be diagnosed using newborn screening in the first days after birth. Disease mapping helps to identify high-risk areas of the disease. This study aimed to evaluate the pattern of CH using the Poisso...

مقایسه کارایی مدلهای رگرسیون پواسن تعمیم یافته با رگرسیون پواسن استاندارد در تحلیل رفتار باروری زنان شهر کاشان درسال 1391

Introduction: Different statistical methods can be used to analyze fertility data. When the response variable is discrete, Poisson model is applied. If the condition does not hold for the Poisson model, its generalized model will be applied. The goal of this study was to compare the efficiency of generalized Poisson regression model with the standard Poisson regression model in estimating the c...

Parsimony, likelihood, and the role of models in molecular phylogenetics.

Methods such as maximum parsimony (MP) are frequently criticized as being statistically unsound and not being based on any "model." On the other hand, advocates of MP claim that maximum likelihood (ML) has some fundamental problems. Here, we explore the connection between the different versions of MP and ML methods, particularly in light of recent theoretical results. We describe links between ...

An integrated model for designing a distribution network of products under facility and transportation link disruptions

Due to occurrence of unexpected disruptions,a resilient supply chain design is important. In this paper, a bi-objective model is proposed for designing a resilient supply chain including suppliers, distribution centers (DCs), and retailers under disruption risks.The first objective function minimizes total costs. The second objective function maximizes satisfied demands. We use the augmented e-...

On Left-truncating and Mixing Poisson Distributions

The distributions obtained by left-truncating at k a mixed Poisson distribution, kT-MP, those obtained by mixing previously left-truncated Poisson distributions, M-kTP; and those obtained by left-truncating at k a mixture of previously left-truncated Poisson distributions, kT-M-iTP, are characterized by means of their probability generating function. The kT-MP models are useful because they apr...
