Genomics Data Analysis - False Discovery Rates and Empirical Bayes Methods (Paperback): David R. Bickel Genomics Data Analysis - False Discovery Rates and Empirical Bayes Methods (Paperback)
David R. Bickel
R775 Discovery Miles 7 750 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Statisticians have met the need to test hundreds or thousands of genomics hypotheses simultaneously with novel empirical Bayes methods that combine advantages of traditional Bayesian and frequentist statistics. Techniques for estimating the local false discovery rate assign probabilities of differential gene expression, genetic association, etc. without requiring subjective prior distributions. This book brings these methods to scientists while keeping the mathematics at an elementary level. Readers will learn the fundamental concepts behind local false discovery rates, preparing them to analyze their own genomics data and to critically evaluate published genomics research. Key Features: * dice games and exercises, including one using interactive software, for teaching the concepts in the classroom * examples focusing on gene expression and on genetic association data and briefly covering metabolomics data and proteomics data * gradual introduction to the mathematical equations needed * how to choose between different methods of multiple hypothesis testing * how to convert the output of genomics hypothesis testing software to estimates of local false discovery rates * guidance through the minefield of current criticisms of p values * material on non-Bayesian prior p values and posterior p values not previously published

Phylogenetic Trees and Molecular Evolution - A Hands-on Introduction with Uncertainty Quantification Corrected (Paperback, 1st... Phylogenetic Trees and Molecular Evolution - A Hands-on Introduction with Uncertainty Quantification Corrected (Paperback, 1st ed. 2022)

R1,673 Discovery Miles 16 730 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book serves as a brief introduction to phylogenetic trees and molecular evolution for biologists and biology students. It does so by presenting the main concepts in a variety of ways: first visually, then in a history, next in a dice game, and finally in simple equations. The content is primarily designed to introduce upper-level undergraduate and graduate students of biology to phylogenetic tree reconstruction and the underlying models of molecular evolution. A unique feature also of interest to experienced researchers is the emphasis on simple ways to quantify the uncertainty in the results more fully than is possible with standard methods.
