  • Saved in translation? Diversity shared in French and Dutch medieval literature

    Open AccessMike Kestemont, Folgert Karsdorp et al.ARTICLEEvolutionary Human Sciences2026

    Empirical studies often have to work with incomplete samples, with scholars rarely accounting for under-registration: in cultural heritage e.g. the age-long loss of artefacts can yield an under-estimation of the original richness of assemblages. Recently, it has been argued that unseen species models from ecology can estimate the unobserved diversity in cultural collections. We report an extension on shared diversity, i.e. the number of types tha…

    Hill numbers (or the effective number of species) have been increasingly used to quantify the species/taxonomic diversity of an assemblage. The sample‐size‐ and coverage‐based integrations of rarefaction (interpolation) and extrapolation (prediction) of H ill numbers represent a unified standardization method for quantifying and comparing species diversity across multiple assemblages. We briefly review the conceptual background of H ill numbers a…

  • Statistical Analysis of Paradigmatic Class Richness Supports Greater Paleoindian Projectile-Point Diversity in the Southeast

    Open AccessM I Eren, Anne Chao et al.ARTICLEAmerican Antiquity2016Cited by: 24References: 70

    Ronald Mason's hypothesis from the 1960s that the southeastern United States possesses greater Paleoindian projectile-point diversity than other regions is regularly cited, and often assumed to be true, but in fact has never been quantitatively tested. Even if valid, however, the evolutionary meaning of this diversity is contested. Point diversity is often linked to Clovis 'origins,' but point diversity could also arise from group fissioning and …

  • Rarefaction and extrapolation with Hill numbers

    Open AccessAnne Chao, Nicholas J Gotelli et al.ARTICLEEcological Monographs2014

    Quantifying and assessing changes in biological diversity are central aspects of many ecological studies, yet accurate methods of estimating biological diversity from sampling data have been elusive. Hill numbers, or the effective number of species, are increasingly used to characterize the taxonomic, phylogenetic, or functional diversity of an assemblage. However, empirical estimates of Hill numbers, including species richness, tend to be an inc…

  • Charcoal burning suicides in Hong Kong and urban Taiwan

    Kayuet Liu, Ka Y Liu et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…2007Cited by: 9References: 27

    Objectives: Following the first case in Hong Kong in 1998, the method of committing suicide by charcoal burning has spread to other communities. This aim of this study was to examine the impact of charcoal burning suicides on both overall suicide rates and older-method suicide rates in Hong Kong and urban Taiwan. Design: Trend analysis of the overall and method-specific suicide rates between 1997 and 2002. Comparison of age and gender profiles of…
