The optimal rate for resolving a near-polytomy in a phylogeny
Mike Steel, Christoph Leuenberger
The reconstruction of phylogenetic trees from discrete character data typically relies on models that assume the characters evolve under a continuous-time Markov process operating…
Likelihood-free inference in high-dimensional models
Athanasios Kousathanas, Christoph Leuenberger, Jonas Helfer +3
Methods that bypass analytical evaluations of the likelihood function have become an indispensable tool for statistical inference in many fields of science. These so-called likelih…
Simpsonian 'Evolution by Jumps' in an Adaptive Radiation of Anolis Lizards
Jonathan M. Eastman, Daniel Wegmann, Christoph Leuenberger +1
In his highly influential view of evolution, G. G. Simpson hypothesized that clades of species evolve in adaptive zones, defined as collections of niches occupied by species with s…
Explicit bounds for the approximation error in Benford's law
Lutz Duembgen, Christoph Leuenberger
Benford's law states that for many random variables X > 0 its leading digit D = D(X) satisfies approximately the equation P(D = d) = log_{10}(1 + 1/d) for d = 1,2,...,9. This pheno…
