An adaptive time-tree transition kernel for Bayesian phylogenetic inference

Marius Brusselmans, Guy Baele, Samuel L. Hong +4

Bayesian phylogenetic and phylodynamic analyses can be very time-consuming, owing to the combination of complex models that are used to estimate key parameters from increasingly la…

BEAGLE 4.1: A high-performance library for computation on phylogenetic trees across diverse parallel architectures

Karthik Gangavarapu, Xiang Ji, Yucai Shao +4

Efficient evaluation of sequence data likelihoods and their high-dimensional gradients on phylogenetic trees improves inference under both maximum-likelihood and Bayesian framework…

Smoothly Time-Varying Continuous Time Markov Chains in Phylogenetics

Pratyusa Datta, Philippe Lemey, Marc A. Suchard

The dependence of evolutionary rate estimates on the timeframe of sampling poses a fundamental challenge for reconstructing evolutionary histories from molecular sequence data, whi…

Assessing the Validity of the Fixed Tree Topology Assumption in Phylodynamic Inference

Mathieu Fourment, Jiansi Gao, Marc A Suchard +1

Fixed tree topologies are widely used in phylodynamic analyses to reduce computational burden, yet the consequences of this assumption remain insufficiently understood. Here, we sy…

Detecting Evolutionary Change-Points with Branch-Specific Substitution Models and Shrinkage Priors

Xiang Ji, Benjamin Redelings, Shuo Su +6

Branch-specific substitution models are popular for detecting evolutionary change-points, such as shifts in selective pressure. However, applying such models typically requires pri…

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…
