Computational Performance and Statistical Accuracy of *BEAST and Comparisons with Other Methods
Huw A. Ogilvie, Joseph Heled, Dong Xie +1
Under the multispecies coalescent model of molecular evolution, gene trees have independent evolutionary histories within a shared species tree. In comparison, supermatrix concaten…
Inferring epidemiological dynamics with Bayesian coalescent inference: The merits of deterministic and stochastic models
Alex Popinga, Tim Vaughan, Tanja Stadler +1
Estimation of epidemiological and population parameters from molecular sequence data has become central to the understanding of infectious disease dynamics. Various models have bee…
Bayesian inference of sampled ancestor trees for epidemiology and fossil calibration
Alexandra Gavryushkina, David Welch, Tanja Stadler +1
Phylogenetic analyses which include fossils or molecular sequences that are sampled through time require models that allow one sample to be a direct ancestor of another sample. As…
Axiomatic opportunities and obstacles for inferring a species tree from gene trees
Mike Steel, Joel D. Velasco
The reconstruction of a central tendency `species tree' from a large number of conflicting gene trees is a central problem in systematic biology. Moreover, it becomes particularly…
Calibrated birth-death phylogenetic time-tree priors for Bayesian inference
Joseph Heled, Alexei J. Drummond
Here we introduce a general class of multiple calibration birth-death tree priors for use in Bayesian phylogenetic inference. All tree priors in this class separate ancestral node…
Predicting the ancestral character changes in a tree is typically easier than predicting the root state
Olivier Gascuel, Mike Steel
Predicting the ancestral sequences of a group of homologous sequences related by a phylogenetic tree has been the subject of many studies, and numerous methods have been proposed t…
