Pattern detection in null model analysis
Null model analysis has been a popular tool for detecting pattern in binary presence–absence matrices, and previous tests have identified algorithms and metrics that have good statistical properties. However, the behavior of different metrics is often correlated, making it difficult to distinguish different patterns. We compared the performance of a suite of null models and metrics that have be...
متن کاملStatistical challenges in null model analysis
Th is review identifi es several important challenges in null model testing in ecology: 1) developing randomization algorithms that generate appropriate patterns for a specifi ed null hypothesis; these randomization algorithms stake out a middle ground between formal Pearson – Neyman tests (which require a fully-specifi ed null distribution) and specifi c process-based models (which require par...
متن کاملNull model analysis of species nestedness patterns.
Nestedness is a common biogeographic pattern in which small communities form proper subsets of large communities. However, the detection of nestedness in binary presence-absence matrices will be affected by both the metric used to quantify nestedness and the reference null distribution. In this study, we assessed the statistical performance of eight nestedness metrics and six null model algorit...
متن کاملPattern Detection in Logical Analysis of Data
Sets of “positive” and “negative” points (observations) in n-dimensional discrete space given along with their non-negative integer multiplicities are analyzed from the perspective of the Logical Analysis of Data (LAD). A set of observations satisfying upper and/or lower bounds imposed on certain components is called a positive pattern if it contains some positive observations and no negative o...
متن کاملCorrelation Clustering Model for Crime Pattern Detection
Detecting crime from data analysis can be difficult because daily activities of criminal generate large amounts of data. The police records exist in various formats and the quality of analysis greatly depends on the background knowledge of the analyst. This paper proposes a simple correlation clustering algorithm which aims at finding illegal activities of professional identity fraudsters based...
