A likelihood ratio test for changes in homeolog expression bias [PDF]
Background Gene duplications are a major source of raw material for evolution and a likely contributor to the diversity of life on earth. Duplicate genes (i.e., homeologs, in the case of a whole genome duplication) may retain their ancestral function ...

The Geometry of Generalized Likelihood Ratio Test [PDF]
The generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT) for composite hypothesis testing problems is studied from a geometric perspective. An information-geometrical interpretation of the GLRT is proposed based on the geometry of curved exponential families.

Robust DFT‐based generalised likelihood ratio test for underwater tone detection
The discrete Fourier transform (DFT) of observation sequence is usually used in the detection of tonal signal. A tone without any prior information cannot be guaranteed to lie exactly on the discrete DFT frequency bin, which will degrade the performance ...

Likelihood Ratio Test and the Evidential Approach for 2 × 2 Tables [PDF]
Categorical data analysis of 2 × 2 contingency tables is extremely common, not least because they provide risk difference, risk ratio, odds ratio, and log odds statistics in medical research.

Likelihood-ratio test statistic for the finite-sample case in nonlinear ordinary differential equation models. [PDF]
Likelihood ratios are frequently utilized as basis for statistical tests, for model selection criteria and for assessing parameter and prediction uncertainties, e.g. using the profile likelihood. However, translating these likelihood ratios into p-values

Likelihood Ratio Test for Excess Homozygosity at Marker Loci on X Chromosome. [PDF]
The assumption of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) is generally required for association analysis using case-control design on autosomes; otherwise, the size may be inflated.
