Function estimate_expected_overlap

Estimates expected average overlap for

different sequence lengths

This function estimates the expected average overlap for sequence of a given lengths based on the data

Input:

• tracker (struct): A valid tracker descriptor.

• experiment (struct): A valid experiment descriptor.

• sequences (cell): An array of valid sequence descriptors.

• varargin[Lengths] (vector): A vector of sequence lengths for which the

overlap should be evaluated.

• varargin[Weights] (vector): A vector of per-sequence weigths that indicate

how much does each sequence contributes to the estimate.

• varargin[Labels] (cell): A set of labels for which to perform

calculation. If not set then only 'all' is used.

Output:

• expected_overlaps (vector): Expected overlaps for corresponding

lengths.

• evaluated_lengths (vector): A filtered array of lengths (removed duplicates).

• practical_difference (vector): An estimate of the practical difference for

corresponding expected overlap.
