We elaborate on an alternative representation of conditional probability to the usual tree diagram. We term the representation “turtleback diagram” for its resemblance to the pattern on turtle shells.

We consider the problem of estimating the conditional probability of a label in time O(log n), where n is the number of possible labels. We analyze a natural reduction of this problem to a set of ...

Extant sequence reconstruction (ESR) is a workflow to calculate the conditional probability distribution of an extant sequence given an alignment, a phylogenetic tree, and an evolutionary model. What ...

Abstract: Decision tree algorithm is a very active research area of data mining. This paper describes the basic decision tree idea in data mining, then discusses the computational complexity of the ...

Investopedia contributors come from a range of backgrounds, and over 25 years there have been thousands of expert writers and editors who have contributed. Thomas J Catalano is a CFP and Registered ...
