Statistical Challenges in Tracking the Evolution of SARS-CoV-2
Lorenzo Cappello, Jaehee Kim, Sifan Liu +1
Genomic surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 has been instrumental in tracking the spread and evolution of the virus during the pandemic. The availability of SARS-CoV-2 molecular sequences i…
Enumeration of binary trees compatible with a perfect phylogeny
Julia A. Palacios, Anand Bhaskar, Filippo Disanto +1
Evolutionary models used for describing molecular sequence variation suppose that at a non-recombining genomic segment, sequences share ancestry that can be represented as a geneal…
Scalable Bayesian change point detection with spike and slab priors
Lorenzo Cappello, Oscar Hernan Madrid Padilla, Julia A. Palacios
We study the use of spike and slab priors for consistent estimation of the number of change points and their locations. Leveraging recent results in the variable selection literatu…
Statistical summaries of unlabelled evolutionary trees and ranked hierarchical clustering trees
Samyak Rajanala, Julia A. Palacios
Rooted and ranked binary trees are mathematical objects of great importance used to model hierarchical data and evolutionary relationships with applications in many fields includin…
