From viral evolution to spatial contagion: a biologically modulated Hawkes model
Andrew J. Holbrook, Xiang Ji, Marc A. Suchard
Mutations sometimes increase contagiousness for evolving pathogens. During an epidemic, scientists use viral genome data to infer a shared evolutionary history and connect this his…

A phylogenetic approach disentangles interlocus gene conversion tract length and initiation rate
Xiang Ji, Jeffrey L. Thorne
Interlocus gene conversion (IGC) homogenizes paralogs. Little is known regarding the mutation events that cause IGC and even less is known about the IGC mutations that experience f…

Relaxed random walks at scale
Alexander A. Fisher, Xiang Ji, Philippe Lemey +1
Relaxed random walk (RRW) models of trait evolution introduce branch-specific rate multipliers to modulate the variance of a standard Brownian diffusion process along a phylogeny a…
