A Relaxed Drift Diffusion Model for Phylogenetic Trait Evolution
Understanding the processes that give rise to quantitative measurements associated with molecular sequence data remains an important issue in statistical phylogenetics. Examples of such measurements include geographic coordinates in the context of phylogeography and phenotypic traits in the context of comparative studies. A popular approach is to model the evolution of continuously varying trai...
متن کاملRandom Walk Approach to Simple Evolution Model
The dynamics of the avalanche width in the evolution model is described using a random walk picture. In this approach the critical exponents for avalanche distribution, τ , and avalanche average time, γ, are found to be the same as in the previous mean field approximation but SOC appear at λ critical = 2/3, which is very close to numerical value. A continuous time random walk is studied numeric...
متن کاملA Random Walk with Exponential Travel Times
Consider the random walk among N places with N(N - 1)/2 transports. We attach an exponential random variable Xij to each transport between places Pi and Pj and take these random variables mutually independent. If transports are possible or impossible independently with probability p and 1-p, respectively, then we give a lower bound for the distribution function of the smallest path at point log...
متن کاملPSEUDO-RANDOM DIRECTIONAL SEARCH: A NEW HEURISTIC FOR OPTIMIZATION
Meta-heuristics have already received considerable attention in various fields of engineering optimization problems. Each of them employes some key features best suited for a specific class of problems due to its type of search space and constraints. The present work develops a Pseudo-random Directional Search, PDS, for adaptive combination of such heuristic operators. It utilizes a short term...
متن کاملPhylogenetic ANOVA: The Expression Variance and Evolution Model for Quantitative Trait Evolution.
A number of methods have been developed for modeling the evolution of a quantitative trait on a phylogeny. These methods have received renewed interest in the context of genome-wide studies of gene expression, in which the expression levels of many genes can be modeled as quantitative traits. We here develop a new method for joint analyses of quantitative traits within- and between species, the...
