  2. Paternity Index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paternity_Index

    Example calculation of a paternity index. In paternity testing, Paternity Index (PI) is a calculated value generated for a single genetic marker or locus (chromosomal location or site of DNA sequence of interest) and is associated with the statistical strength or weight of that locus in favor of or against parentage given the phenotypes of the tested participants and the inheritance scenario.

  3. Odds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odds

    Thus if expressed as a fraction with a numerator of 1, probability and odds differ by exactly 1 in the denominator: a probability of 1 in 100 (1/100 = 1%) is the same as odds of 1 to 99 (1/99 = 0.0101... = 0. 01), while odds of 1 to 100 (1/100 = 0.01) is the same as a probability of 1 in 101 (1/101 = 0.00990099... = 0. 0099). This is a minor ...

    100 bp = 100‱, 10‰, 1%, 10 −2, ⁠ 1 / 100 ⁠, or 0.01. Basis points are used as a convenient unit of measurement in contexts where percentage differences of less than 1% are discussed. The most common example is interest rates , where differences in interest rates of less than 1% per year are usually meaningful to talk about.

  5. Centimorgan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centimorgan

    In humans one centimorgan corresponds to about 1 Mb (1,000,000 base pairs or nucleotides) on average. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The relationship is only rough, as the physical chromosomal distance corresponding to one centimorgan varies from place to place in the genome, and also varies between males and females since recombination during gamete formation in ...

    For example, in duodecimal, ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ = 0.6, ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠ = 0.4, ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠ = 0.3 and ⁠ 1 / 6 ⁠ = 0.2 all terminate; ⁠ 1 / 5 ⁠ = 0. 2497 repeats with period length 4, in contrast with the equivalent decimal expansion of 0.2; ⁠ 1 / 7 ⁠ = 0. 186A35 has period 6 in duodecimal, just as it does in decimal.

  7. Percentage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentage

    In general, if an increase of x percent is followed by a decrease of x percent, and the initial amount was p, the final amount is p (1 + 0.01 x)(10.01 x) = p (1 − (0.01 x) 2); hence the net change is an overall decrease by x percent of x percent (the square of the original percent change when expressed as a decimal number).

  8. Herfindahl–Hirschman index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herfindahl–Hirschman_index

    The Herfindahl Index (HHI) ranges from 1/N (in case of perfect competition) to 1 (in case of monopoly), where N is the number of firms in the market. Equivalently, if percents are used as whole numbers, as in 75 instead of 0.75, the index can range up to 100 2, or 10,000. Herfindahl-Hirschman Index

  9. Type I and type II errors - Wikipedia

    Then, T should follow N(μ,2/) and the parameter μ represents the true speed of passing vehicle. In this experiment, the null hypothesis H 0 and the alternative hypothesis H 1 should be H 0: μ=120 against H 1: μ>120. If we perform the statistic level at α=0.05, then a critical value c should be calculated to solve
