TreeFlow: probabilistic modelling and automatic differentiation for phylogenetics
Christiaan Swanepoel, Mathieu Fourment, Xiang Ji +4
Probabilistic modelling frameworks are powerful tools for statistical modelling and inference. They are not immediately generalizable to phylogenetic problems due to the particular…
Bayesian inference of the climbing grade scale
Alexei Drummond, Alex Popinga
Climbing grades are used to classify a climbing route based on its perceived difficulty, and have come to play a central role in the sport of rock climbing. Recently, the first sta…
The fossilized birth-death model for the analysis of stratigraphic range data under different speciation concepts
Tanja Stadler, Alexandra Gavryushkina, Rachel C. M. Warnock +2
A birth-death-sampling model gives rise to phylogenetic trees with samples from the past and the present. Interpreting "birth" as branching speciation, "death" as extinction, and "…
Bayesian phylogenetic estimation of fossil ages
Alexei J. Drummond, Tanja Stadler
Recent advances have allowed for both morphological fossil evidence and molecular sequences to be integrated into a single combined inference of divergence dates under the rule of…
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…
Bayesian total evidence dating reveals the recent crown radiation of penguins
Alexandra Gavryushkina, Tracy A. Heath, Daniel T. Ksepka +3
The total-evidence approach to divergence-time dating uses molecular and morphological data from extant and fossil species to infer phylogenetic relationships, species divergence t…
