Systematic Exploration of the High Likelihood Set of Phylogenetic Tree Topologies
Chris Whidden, Brian C. Claywell, Thayer Fisher +3
Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo explores tree space slowly, in part because it frequently returns to the same tree topology. An alternative strategy would be to explore tree spac…

A surrogate function for one-dimensional phylogenetic likelihoods
Brian C. Claywell, Vu C. Dinh, Connor O. McCoy +1
Phylogenetics has seen an steady increase in substitution model complexity, which requires increasing amounts of computational power to compute likelihoods. This model complexity m…
