Description
Theseus superposes a set of macromolecular structures simultaneously using the method of maximum like-lihood (ML), rather than the conventional least-squares criterion. Theseus assumes that the structures are distributed according to a matrix Gaussian distribution and that the eigenvalues of the atomic covariancematrix are hierarchically distributed according to an inverse gamma distribution. This ML superpositioning model produces much more accurate results by essentially downweighting variable regions of the structuresand by correcting for correlations among atoms.
