What is the Interpretation of Log Likelihood in Molecular Data Analysis?

Hello,

I am a Bio informatician and encountered Likelihood while executing the Molecular data. I have used one software that is using the Hidden Markov Model in addition to the EM Algorithm and Viterbi algorithm. After calculations are done already, in addition to the output, it is giving me some logL values.

The logL values are like below:

logL = -484.1534290649416

I just want to know how it is inferred? If it is very low in negative then the executed output is better or not? I have read some articles about log likelihood but they only explained about the whole likelihood process.

Note: There is no graph. It is only showing the logL values.

Good Day!

Thread 'Here's a Statistics problem for game of Polo (or Hockey if you like)'

Namaste & G'day Postulate: A strongly-knit team wins on average over a less knit one Fundamentals: - Two teams face off with 4 players each - A polo team consists of players that each have assigned to them a measure of their ability (called a "Handicap" - 10 is highest, -2 lowest) I attempted to measure close-knitness of a team in terms of standard deviation (SD) of handicaps of the players. Failure: It turns out that, more often than, a team with a higher SD wins. In my language, that...

Thread 'Roulette wheel physics and probability'

Hi all, I've been a roulette player for more than 10 years (although I took time off here and there) and it's only now that I'm trying to understand the physics of the game. Basically my strategy in roulette is to divide the wheel roughly into two halves (let's call them A and B). My theory is that in roulette there will invariably be variance. In other words, if A comes up 5 times in a row, B will be due to come up soon. However I have been proven wrong many times, and I have seen some...
