Module bio::stats::probs[−][src]

Handling log-probabilities. Log probabilities are an important tool to deal with probabilities in a numerically stable way, in particular when having probabilities close to zero.

Modules

cdf

Support for discrete probability distributions in terms of cumulative distribution functions (CDF).

errors

Error definitions for the probs module.

Structs

LogProb

A newtype for log-scale probabilities. For performance reasons, we use an approximation of the exp method implemented in bio::utils::FastExp. This can lead to slight errors, but should not matter given that most of the probability differences are reflected within the integer part of the log probability.

PHREDProb

A newtype for PHRED-scale probabilities.

Prob

A newtype for probabilities.

Type Definitions

ScanIter

Iterator returned by scans over logprobs.
