This site is devoted to my interest in bioinformatics, especially phylogenetic analysis and macroevolution.
Calculations for multi-type age-dependent binary branching processes (Nov 2009). Download PDF. Submitted to Journal of Mathematical Biology.
Tree Models for Macro-Evolution and Phylogenetic Analysis (Feb 2009). Download PDF. A version of this (much improved by the review process) has been accepted with minor revisions by Systematic Biology.
On the reliability of Bayesian posterior clade probabilities in phylogenetic analysis (Jan 2008). Download PDF. It is also at Nature Precedings
Here is a note which calculates a density for node times in a birth-death-sampling model.
Here is a note about distributions for rate matrix priors for substitution models for nucleotides. It shows how the full 12-parameter model, the GTR model, HKY model, and Kimura's model can be viewed as nested vector spaces in log-rate space.
Some background information about me and my work in pattern recognition can be found here.
