2004 journal article

Optimal testing strategies for large, sparse multinomial models

COMPUTATIONAL STATISTICS & DATA ANALYSIS, 46(3), 605–620.

By: P. Maiste* & B. Weir n

author keywords: conditional test; unconditional test; goodness-of-fit; Fisher's exact test; Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium
TL;DR: A comprehensive comparison of test statistics and testing strategies to test for independence at one locus with many alleles finds that Fisher's exact test is most appropriate for small samples, and the asymptotic chi-square goodness-of-fit statistic works well with large samples, relative to the number of multinomial categories.

Moment estimation of population diversity and genetic distance from data on recessive markers

MOLECULAR ECOLOGY, 13(4), 895–908.

By: W. Hill* & B. Weir n

author keywords: amplified fragment length polymorphism; dominant markers; F-statistics; genetic diversity; population structure; sampling error
MeSH headings : Analysis of Variance; Animals; Evolution, Molecular; Genes, Recessive / genetics; Genetic Markers / genetics; Genetic Variation; Genetics, Population; Genotype; Models, Genetic; Polymorphism, Restriction Fragment Length; Species Specificity; Sus scrofa / genetics
TL;DR: A moment‐based method for estimating a measure of population diversity, θ or Wright's FST, is given for dominant markers such as amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLPs) or RAPDs in noninbred populations. (via Semantic Scholar)

Model building with likelihood basis pursuit

OPTIMIZATION METHODS & SOFTWARE, 19(5), 577–594.

By: M. Ferris*, M. Voelker* & H. Zhang n

author keywords: model building; slice models; parameter selection; basis pursuit
TL;DR: It is shown how slice-modeling techniques significantly improve the efficiency of individual solves and thus speed-up the grid search, and how derivative-free optimization algorithms can find better solutions with fewer function evaluations by seeding them with a coarse grid search.

Comparing population size estimators for plethodontid salamanders

JOURNAL OF HERPETOLOGY, 38(3), 370–380.

TL;DR: Results indicate that short-term closed-population, robust design, and depletion methods estimate surface population of salamanders (i.e., those near the surface and available for capture during a given sampling occasion) and that in longer duration studies, temporary emigration violates assumptions of both open- and closed- Population mark-recapture estimation models.

Column sorting: Rapid calculation of the phylogenetic likelihood function

SYSTEMATIC BIOLOGY, 53(5), 685–692.

author keywords: DNA sequence; graph theory; likelihood; phylogeny; traveling salesman problem
MeSH headings : Algorithms; Base Sequence / genetics; Classification / methods; Evolution, Molecular; Likelihood Functions; Models, Genetic; Phylogeny
TL;DR: An algorithm for exploiting this speed improvement via an application of graph theory to provide faster likelihood algorithms, which will allow likelihood methods to be applied to larger sets of taxa and to include more thorough searches of the tree topology space. (via Semantic Scholar)

A blocking Gibbs sampling method to detect major genes with phenotypic data from a diallel mating

GENETICS RESEARCH, 83(2), 143–154.

By: W. Zeng n, S. Ghosh n & B. Li n

Contributors: W. Zeng n, S. Ghosh n & B. Li n

MeSH headings : Chromosome Mapping / statistics & numerical data; Data Interpretation, Statistical; Models, Genetic; Phenotype; Research Design; Sampling Studies
TL;DR: A parent block Gibbs sampling method was developed and indicated that there might be a recessive major gene affecting height growth in this diallel population of Loblolly pine derived from a 6-parent half-diallel mating. (via Semantic Scholar)

Spatial and temporal variation in detection probability of plethodon salamanders using the robust capture-recapture design

JOURNAL OF WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT, 68(1), 14–24.

author keywords: capture-recapture; detection probability; great smoky mountains national park; plethodontid salamanders; pollock's robust design; program MARK; spatial variation; temporary emigration
TL;DR: When detection probability parameters have the potential to vary over time and space, investigators should develop monitoring designs that permit the estimation of detection probabilities. (via Semantic Scholar)
