Tajima's D is a population genetic test statistic created by and named after the Japanese researcher Fumio Tajima. [1] Tajima's D is computed as the difference between two measures of genetic diversity: the mean number of pairwise differences and the number of segregating sites, each scaled so that they are expected to be the same in a neutrally evolving population of constant size.
Fumio Tajima was born in Ōkawa, in Japan's Fukuoka prefecture, in 1951. [1] [2] He graduated from high school in 1970, completed his undergraduate degree at Kyushu University in 1976, and received a Master's degree from the same institution in 1978. [3]
George Caspar Adams (April 24, 1863 – July 13, 1900) was an American football player and former head coach of the Harvard University football program from 1890 to 1892. He co-coached with George A. Stewart , another Harvard graduate.
Fay and Wu's H is a statistical test created by and named after two researchers Justin Fay and Chung-I Wu. [1] The purpose of the test is to distinguish between a DNA sequence evolving randomly ("neutrally") and one evolving under positive selection.
Tajima's D is based on the expectation that S = theta * x where x is the sum of 1/i for i from 1 to N. Thus, we turn this into a method to estimate theta by noting that theta = E(S)/x. The current version suggests that S/x part is a "normalized" version of segregating sites, and this leads to a mistake in the calculation of D in the example.

George Adams Kaufmann, also George Adams and George von Kaufmann, (8 February 1894, Maryampol, Galicia, then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire – 30 March 1963, Edgbaston, UK) was a British mathematician, translator and anthroposophist.
A Defence of the Constitutions of Government of the United States of America is a three-volume work by John Adams, written between 1787 and 1788.The text was Adams’ response to criticisms of the proposed American government, particularly those made by French economist and political theorist Anne Robert Jacques Turgot, who had argued against bicameralism and separation of powers.
