A topological transformation in evolutionary tree search methods based on maximum likelihood combining p-ECR and neighbor joinin
Background: Inference of evolutionary trees using the maximum likelihood principle is NP-hard. Therefore, all practical methods rely on heuristics. The topological transformations...

Particle methods for maximum likelihood estimation in latent variable models
Standard methods for maximum likelihood parameter estimation in latent variable models rely on the Expectation-Maximization algorithm and its Monte Carlo variants. Our approach is ...
