  • Resampling Residuals on Phylogenetic Trees: Extended Results Peter J
    Resampling Residuals on Phylogenetic Trees: Extended Results Peter J. Waddell1, Ariful Azad2 and Ishita Khan2 [email protected] 1Department of Biological Sciences, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47906, U.S.A. 2Department of Computer Science, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47906, U.S.A . In this article the results of Waddell and Azad (2009) are extended. In particular, the geometric percentage mean standard deviation measure of the fit of distances to a phylogenetic tree are adjusted for the number of parameters fitted on the tree. The formulae are also presented in their general form for any weight that is a function of the distance. The cell line gene expression data set of Ross et al. (2000) is reanalyzed. It is shown that ordinary least squares (OLS) is a much better fit to the data than a Neighbor Joining or BME tree. Residual resampling shows that cancer cell lines do indeed fit a tree fairly well and that the tree does have strong internal structure. Simulations show that least squares tree building methods, including OLS, are strong competitors with BME type methods for fitting model data, while real world examples often suggest the same conclusion. “… his ignorance and almost doe-like naivety is keeping his mind receptive to a possible solution.” A quotation from Kryten: Red Dwarf VIII-Cassandra Keywords: Resampled Residual Bootstrap, flexi-Weighted Least Squares Phylogenetic Trees fWLS, Balanced Minimum Evolution BME, Phylogenomics, Gene Expression Tree Waddell, Azad and Khan (2010).

During the enforcement effort, ERO arrested 82 individuals for violating U.S. immigration laws. Of those arrested, more than 40 had been previously released from local law enforcement custody with an active detainer. Ten of those arrested were previously removed from the United States and returned illegally. Several had prior felony convictions for serious or violent offenses, such as sexual crimes, weapons charges, and assault, or had past convictions for significant or multiple misdemeanors. “Of those arrested during these five days, more than half were released from local custody with an active detainer. That is more than three dozen illegal aliens with convictions or criminal charges who were released back into New York communities, further putting the safety of its residents at risk,” said Thomas R. Decker, field office director for ERO New York. “Because of the senseless local laws in New York City, thousands of illegal aliens have been released; and as this trend continues, thousands more will be released back into the communities to threaten the safety of our city’s AILA Doc.

The Death of Tragedy: Examining Nietzsche’s Return to the Greeks Brian Long 1 Thesis Introduction In the study of philosophy, there are many dichotomies: Eastern philosophy versus Western philosophy, analytic versus continental, and so on. But none of these is as fundamental as the struggle between the ancients and the moderns. With the writings of Descartes, and perhaps even earlier with those of Machiavelli, there was a transition from “man in the world” to “man above the world.” Plato’s dialogues, Aristotle’s lecture notes, and the verses of the pre- Socratics are abandoned for having the wrong focus. No longer did philosophers seek to observe and question nature and man’s place in it; now the goal was mastery and possession of nature.
