Abstract

A simple application of urn models is useful in spelling out the way in which, in abstraction, if the parents are distributed in Hardy-Weinberg form, that form is reproduced in offspring with nonrandom mating. A measure of divergence from random mating is proposed and illustrated by numerical examples. The scope of urn models of stochastic processes in population genetics theory is set out.

骨灰盒模型在遗传学中占有一席之地。

一个简单的瓮模型的应用有助于阐明，在抽象意义上，如果亲本以Hardy-Weinberg形式分布，那么这种形式在非随机交配的后代中繁殖。提出了一种随机配对发散度的度量方法，并用数值算例进行了说明。阐述了种群遗传学理论中随机过程urn模型的适用范围。
