Example sentences for: hypergeometric

How can you use “hypergeometric” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Conditioned on the marginals, and when there is no space–time interaction, c A is distributed according to the hypergeometric distribution with mean μ
One reason for using the Poisson approximation is that it is much easier to work with this distribution than the hypergeometric when adjusting for space by day-of-week interaction (see below), as the sum of Poisson distributions is still a Poisson distribution.
This group of 30 genes contained eight ergosterol biosynthesis genes; this proportion represented an enrichment compared to the rest of the genome (hypergeometric p -value < 6 × 10 -6after Bonferroni correction for multiple testing).
To identify novel enriched promoter sequences, we calculated the hypergeometric distribution of all possible 6-mer sequences in the promoters of the genes clustered by fuzzy k-means clustering.
Genes were assigned to each cluster using an empirically chosen membership cutoff of 0.06 or 0.08, and the probability of observing the number of genes in each cluster that contained one or more copies of each transcription factor binding site was calculated, based on the hypergeometric distribution (see Materials and methods).
