Quasi-independence models with rational maximum likelihood estimator

Journal of Symbolic Computation, 104, 917–941.

By: J. Coons n & S. Sullivant n 

Contributors: J. Coons n & S. Sullivant n 

author keywords: Algebraic statistics; Maximum likelihood estimation; Quasi-independence models; Log-linear models; Maximum likelihood degree
topics (OpenAlex): Bayesian Modeling and Causal Inference; Advanced Combinatorial Mathematics; Polynomial and algebraic computation
TL;DR: This work gives a necessary and sufficient condition on the bipartite graph associated to the model for the MLE to be rational, and uses the Horn uniformization to show that for general log-linear models $\mathcal{M}$ with rational MLE, any model obtained by restricting to a face of the cone of sufficient statistics of $M$ also hasrational MLE.

2016 journal article

A note on the path interval distance

JOURNAL OF THEORETICAL BIOLOGY, 398, 145–149.

By: J. Coons n & J. Rusinko *

author keywords: Tree metrics; Phylogenetics; Cophylogenetics
MeSH headings : Models, Theoretical; Phylogeny
topics (OpenAlex): Plant biochemistry and biosynthesis; Microbial Metabolic Engineering and Bioproduction; Genomics and Phylogenetic Studies
TL;DR: The path interval distance accounts for global congruence between locally incongruent trees and provides a lower bound for the nearest neighbor interchange distance, indicating that it should play a role in phylogenomics. (via Semantic Scholar)
