A surprising number of recent Bayesian phylogenetic analyses contain branch-length estimates that are several orders of magnitude longer than corresponding maximum-likelihood estimates. The levels of ...

We propose a novel "tree-averaging" model that uses the ensemble of classification and regression trees (CART). Each constituent tree is estimated with a subset of similar data. We treat this grouping ...

The rapid accumulation of genome sequence data has made phylogenetics an indispensable tool to various branches of biology. However, it has also posed considerable statistical and computational ...
