简介：
|
Phylogenetic tree reconstruction is a main task in evolutionary biology. Traditional MCMC methods may suffer from the curse of dimensionality and the local-trap problem. Sequential Monte Carlo methods have emerged as alternatives to MCMC methods for phylogenetic reconstruction. Firstly, we introduce a new combinatorial SMC method, with a novel and efficient proposal distribution. We also explore combining SMC and Gibbs sampling to jointly estimate the phylogenetic trees and evolutionary parameter of genetic datasets. Secondly, we propose an“embarrassingly parallel”method for Bayesian phylogenetic inference, annealed SMC, based on recent advances in the SMC literature such as adaptive determination of annealing parameters. |
