Phylogeny Estimation and Hypothesis Testing Using Maximum Likelihood
Phylogeny Estimation and Hypothesis Testing Using Maximum Likelihood is a scholarly work by Keith A. Crandall, published in 1997 in ''Annual Review of Ecology, Evolution, and Systematics''. The main subjects of the publication include statistic, Score test, likelihood function, evolution of mammals, maximum likelihood sequence estimation, econometrics, phylogenetic tree, hypothesis testing, population genetics, computer science, RNA sequencing, mathematics, phylogenetics, restricted maximum likelihood, likelihood principle, null hypothesis, statistics, statistical test, substitution, NULL, likelihood-ratio test, maximum likelihood estimation, and test statistic. The authors also describe how likelihood ratio tests of a variety of biological hypotheses can be formulated and tested using computer simulation to generate the null distribution of the likelihood ratio test statistic..
