Frontiers in Psychology, 2021 In this article we propose a novel method to estimate the frequency distribution of linguistic variables while controlling for statistical non-independence due to shared ancestry. Unlike previous approaches, our technique uses all available data, from language families large and small as well as from isolates, while controlling for different degrees of

Phylogenetic reconciliation [PDF]
PLOS Computational Biology, 2022 This preprint was submitted to Plos Comp Biol Topic Pages, thus its style and format are intented to fit a wikipedia article.; In phylogenetics, reconciliation is an approach to connect the history of two or more coevolving biological entities. The general idea of reconciliation is that a phylogenetic tree representing the evolution of an entity (e.g ...

Journal of Software for Algebra and Geometry, 2021 We introduce the package PhylogeneticTrees for Macaulay2 which allows users to compute phylogenetic invariants for group-based tree models. We provide some background information on phylogenetic algebraic geometry and show how the package PhylogeneticTrees can be used to calculate a generating set for a phylogenetic ideal as well as a lower bound for ...

Microbial Phylogenetic Context Using Phylogenetic Outlines [PDF]
Genome Biology and Evolution, 2021 AbstractMicrobial studies typically involve the sequencing and assembly of draft genomes for individual microbes or whole microbiomes. Given a draft genome, one first task is to determine its phylogenetic context, that is, to place it relative to the set of related reference genomes.

Phylogenetic Comparative Methods on Phylogenetic Networks with Reticulations [PDF]
Systematic Biology, 2017 Abstract The goal of phylogenetic comparative methods (PCMs) is to study the distribution of quantitative traits among related species. The observed traits are often seen as the result of a Brownian Motion (BM) along the branches of a phylogenetic tree. Reticulation events such as hybridization, gene flow or horizontal gene transfer, can

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2017 AbstractPhylogenetics is a widely used concept in evolutionary biology. It is the reconstruction of evolutionary history by building trees that represent branching patterns and sequences. These trees represent shared history, and it is our contention that this approach can be employed in the analysis of Galactic history.

Tangent Phylogenetic PCA [PDF]
, 2023 Phylogenetic PCA (p-PCA) is a version of PCA for observations that are leaf nodes of a phylogenetic tree. P-PCA accounts for the fact that such observations are not independent, due to shared evolutionary history. The method works on Euclidean data, but in evolutionary biology there is a need for applying it to data on manifolds, particularly shapes ...
