Bayesian procedures for the estimation of mutation rates from fluctuation experiments.

Genetics - 1 Jan 1996

Asteris G, Sarkar S

Abstract excerpt

Bayesian procedures are developed for estimating mutation rates from fluctuation experiments. Three Bayesian point estimators are compared with four traditional ones using the results of 10,000 simulated experiments. The Bayesian estimators were found to be at least as efficient as the best of the previously known estimators. The best Bayesian estimator is one that uses (1/m2) as the prior probability density...
