We elaborate on an alternative representation of conditional probability to the usual tree diagram. We term the representation “turtleback diagram” for its resemblance to the pattern on turtle shells.

Extant sequence reconstruction (ESR) is a workflow to calculate the conditional probability distribution of an extant sequence given an alignment, a phylogenetic tree, and an evolutionary model. What ...

Binomial model is arguably the simplest techniques used for option pricing. In this calculator, the options price will be calculated by two binomial-tree methods,Cox-Ross-Rubinstein and Jarrow-Rudd ...

Tree diagrams are a way of showing combinations of two or more events. Each branch is labelled at the end with its outcome and the probability is written alongside the line. Two events are independent ...

For any event that has multiple outcomes with different probabilities, it can be helpful and illustrative to construct a chart or diagram of the possible outcomes. Tree diagrams are a useful example ...

Two events are independent if the probability of the first event happening has no impact on the probability of the second event happening. For example, the probability of rolling a 6 on a die will not ...

Abstract: Fast method of compound event probability calculation based on binary tree is presented for large-scale systems with two-state components. According to the principle of binary decision ...

Abstract: This paper begins by analyzing the structural composition of the unmanned power system in Antarctica. The system is divided into components, including the diesel generator system, ...

I was preparing for my early morning class back in January 2025 when I received a notice regarding an asteroid called 2024 YR4. It said the probability it could hit Earth was unusually high. As ...
