Genome sequence-based species delimitation with confidence intervals and improved distance functions
BMC Bioinformatics, 2013 For the last 25 years species delimitation in prokaryotes (Archaea and Bacteria) was to a large extent based on DNA-DNA hybridization (DDH), a tedious lab procedure designed in the early 1970s that served its purpose astonishingly well in the absence of ...

Statistical tests, P values, confidence intervals, and power: a guide to misinterpretations
European Journal of Epidemiology, 2016 Misinterpretation and abuse of statistical tests, confidence intervals, and statistical power have been decried for decades, yet remain rampant. A key problem is that there are no interpretations of these concepts that are at once simple, intuitive ...

Multivariate Confidence Intervals [PDF]
, 2017 Confidence intervals are a popular way to visualize and analyze data distributions. Unlike p-values, they can convey information both about statistical significance as well as effect size. However, very little work exists on applying confidence intervals to multivariate data.
