| The Tabasco 2003 isolate grouped with 3 strains from 2001 and 2002 in Florida and Louisiana and more distantly with a New York isolate from 2000, with strong Bayesian probability and bootstrap support; inclusion of the New York grouse strain was weakly supported (bootstrap and Bayesian probability values <80%). Tools that automatically generate the taxonomy structure apply various algorithms (statistical analysis, Bayesian probability, and clustering) to a corpus of documents in a bottom-up strategy. Indeed, maximum likelihood and Bayesian probability theory offer the correct formalism for considering all data and model uncertainties; least-squares analysis is just one, albeit relatively general, instance of maximum likelihood. |
