Exploring phylogenetic hypotheses via Gibbs sampling on evolutionary networks [PDF]
Background Phylogenetic networks are leaf-labeled graphs used to model and display complex evolutionary relationships that do not fit a single tree. There are two classes of phylogenetic networks: Data-display networks and evolutionary networks.

Computational phase transition signature in Gibbs sampling
Gibbs sampling is fundamental to a wide range of computer algorithms. Such algorithms are set to be replaced by physics based processors—be it quantum or stochastic annealing devices—which embed problem instances and evolve a physical system into a low ...

PhyloGibbs-MP: module prediction and discriminative motif-finding by Gibbs sampling. [PDF]
PhyloGibbs, our recent Gibbs-sampling motif-finder, takes phylogeny into account in detecting binding sites for transcription factors in DNA and assigns posterior probabilities to its predictions obtained by sampling the entire configuration space. Here,

A Dirichlet Process Prior Approach for Covariate Selection
The variable selection problem in general, and specifically for the ordinary linear regression model, is considered in the setup in which the number of covariates is large enough to prevent the exploration of all possible models.
