Primes

• Inspection Paradox
  • In reliability engineering, components inspected during operation are length-biased toward long lives, and in genetics and lineage sampling, picking a present-day descendant and walking back oversamples lineages with many descendants, as the coalescent formalizes.

    This sourceIntroduces the coalescent, formalizing how sampling present-day lineages over-represents ancestries with many descendants.
