Model checking software for phylogenetic trees using distribution and database methods
2013
Journal of Integrative Bioinformatics
However, the performance of traditional model checking is penalized when scaling the system for large phylogenies. To this end, two strategies are presented here. ...
Model checking, a generic and formal paradigm stemming from computer science based on temporal logics, has been proposed for the study of biological properties that emerge from the labeling of the states ...
Slicing the State Phylogenetic model checking usually associates a complete DNA sequence per node of the tree. ...

Modeling body size evolution in Felidae under alternative phylogenetic hypotheses
2009
Genetics and Molecular Biology
The PVR explained 65% to 67% of body size variation and all Moran's I values for the PVR residuals were non-significant, indicating that both these models explained phylogenetic structures in trait variation ...
We used phylogenetic correlograms and phylogenetic eigenvector regression (PVR) to model body size evolution in 35 worldwide Felidae (Mammalia, Carnivora) species using two alternative phylogenies and ...
Correlograms may also Feline phylogenies and phylogenetic analysis be not very sensitive when using large distance classes between time slices, as used here, because of the small number of species. ...

Bayesian models for comparative analysis integrating phylogenetic uncertainty
2012
BMC Evolutionary Biology
We show that BUGS is a useful, flexible general purpose tool for phylogenetic comparative analyses, particularly for modelling in the face of phylogenetic uncertainty and accounting for measurement error ...
Although there is some application-specific software for fitting Bayesian models accounting for phylogenetic error, more general and flexible software is desirable. ...
