Matrix-analytic methods for the evolution of species trees, gene trees, and their reconciliation
Albert C. Soewongsono, Jiahao Diao, Tristan Stark +4
We consider the reconciliation problem, in which the task is to find a mapping of a gene tree into a species tree, so as to maximize the likelihood of such fitting, given the avail…
