A Simple, Fast, and Accurate Algorithm to Estimate Large Phylogenies by Maximum Likelihood
The increase in the number of large data sets and the complexity of current probabilistic sequence evolution models necessitates fast and reliable phylogeny reconstruction metho...
MAFFT: a novel method for rapid multiple sequence alignment based on fast Fourier transform
A multiple sequence alignment program, MAFFT, has been developed. The CPU time is drastically reduced as compared with existing methods. MAFFT includes two novel techniques. (i)...
The variant call format and VCFtools
Abstract Summary: The variant call format (VCF) is a generic format for storing DNA polymorphism data such as SNPs, insertions, deletions and structural variants, together with ...
Cluster analysis and display of genome-wide expression patterns
A system of cluster analysis for genome-wide expression data from DNA microarray hybridization is described that uses standard statistical algorithms to arrange genes according ...
A Fast Learning Algorithm for Deep Belief Nets
We show how to use “complementary priors” to eliminate the explaining-away effects that make inference difficult in densely connected belief nets that have many hidden layers. U...
Object recognition from local scale-invariant features
An object recognition system has been developed that uses a new class of local image features. The features are invariant to image scaling, translation, and rotation, and partia...
Knowledge and Teaching:Foundations of the New Reform
Lee S. Shulman builds his foundation for teaching reform on an idea of teaching that emphasizes comprehension and reasoning, transformation and reflection. "This emphasis is jus...
Regularization Paths for Generalized Linear Models via Coordinate Descent
We develop fast algorithms for estimation of generalized linear models with convex penalties. The models include linear regression, two-class logistic regression, and multi- nom...
A Survey of Corporate Governance
ABSTRACT This article surveys research on corporate governance, with special attention to the importance of legal protection of investors and of ownership concentration in corpo...
