AbstractProperly modelling genetic recombination and local linkage has been shown to bring a significant improvement to the inference of natural selection from time series genetic data under a Wright-Fisher model. Existing approaches that can take genetic recombination effect and local linkage information into account are built upon either the diffusion approximation or the moment-based approximation of the Wright-Fisher model. However, such approximations are either limited to the increased computational cost like the diffusion approximation or suffer from the distribution support issue like the normal approximation, which can seriously affect computational efficiency and accuracy. In this work, we propose two novel moment-based approximations for the Wright-Fisher model of population dynamics subject to natural selection at a pair of linked loci. Our key innovation is that we extend existing approaches to calculate the mean and (co)variance of the two-locus Wright-Fisher model with selection and suggest a logistic normal distribution or a hierarchical beta distribution as a parametric continuous probability distribution to approximate the Wright-Fisher model by matching its first two moments to those of the Wright-Fisher model. Compared with the diffusion approximation, our approximations enable the computation of the transition probability distribution of the Wright-Fisher model at a far smaller computational cost and also allow us to avoid the distribution support issue found in the normal approximation.

In economics, cash management problems may be modelled by birth-death processes which reset to central states when a boundary is reached. The nature of the transient behaviour of the probability distribution of such processes symmetric about a central state is investigated. A diffusion approximation of such processes is given and the transient probability behaviour derived from the diffusion equation.

AbstractAssessment of several noise indicators are determined by the logarithmic mean <img src="/fulltext-image.asp?format=htmlnonpaginated&src=P42524002G141TV8_html\05_paper.gif" alt=""/>, from the sum of independent random resultsL1;L2; : : : ;Lnof the sound level, being under testing. The estimation of uncertainty of such averaging requires knowledge of probability distribution of the function form of their calculations. The developed solution, leading to the recurrent determination of the probability distribution function for the estimation of the mean value of noise levels and its variance, is shown in this paper.

This article assesses the wind speed data and wind energy potential in the Bukhara region of Uzbekistan. In article it is stated a principle construction "hybrid" a source of the electric power consisting from wind power installation with mechanical store of energy, the solar panel with аккумулятор in common working with an electric network. The speed and direction of the wind measured at a height of 10 m were analyzed by the Weibull probability distribution functionTo determine the direction of wind flow (wind rose), a graph in Matlab environment was constructed. The method of an estimation energy of efficiency of the objects eating from several energy sources is offered. It is proved efficiency of application of such source of the electric power low power consumers
