Infinite Mixture Models for Improved Modeling of Across-Site Evolutionary Variation
Mandev S. Gill, Guy Baele, Marc A. Suchard +1
Scientific studies in many areas of biology routinely employ evolutionary analyses based on the probabilistic inference of phylogenetic trees from molecular sequence data. Evolutio…
Online Bayesian phylodynamic inference in BEAST with application to epidemic reconstruction
Mandev S. Gill, Philippe Lemey, Marc A. Suchard +2
Reconstructing pathogen dynamics from genetic data as they become available during an outbreak or epidemic represents an important statistical scenario in which observations arrive…
Markov-modulated continuous-time Markov chains to identify site- and branch-specific evolutionary variation
Guy Baele, Mandev S. Gill, Philippe Lemey +1
Markov models of character substitution on phylogenies form the foundation of phylogenetic inference frameworks. Early models made the simplifying assumption that the substitution…
Understanding Past Population Dynamics: Bayesian Coalescent-Based Modeling with Covariates
Mandev S. Gill, Philippe Lemey, Shannon N. Bennett +2
Effective population size characterizes the genetic variability in a population and is a parameter of paramount importance in population genetics. Kingman's coalescent process enab…
A Relaxed Drift Diffusion Model for Phylogenetic Trait Evolution
Mandev S. Gill, Lam Si Tung Ho, Guy Baele +2
Understanding the processes that give rise to quantitative measurements associated with molecular sequence data remains an important issue in statistical phylogenetics. Examples of…
