Evidence of Multiple Maximum Likelihood Points for a Phylogenetic Tree
An interesting and important, but largely ignored question associated with the ML method is whether there exists only a single maximum likelihood point for a given phylogenetic tr...

Maximum Likelihood in Cost-Sensitive Learning: Model Specification, Approximations, and Upper Bounds
The presence of asymmetry in the misclassification costs or class prevalences is a common occurrence in the pattern classification domain. While much interest has been devoted to ...

An Investigation of Phylogenetic Likelihood Methods
Abstract— We analyze the performance of likelihoodbased approaches used to reconstruct phylogenetic trees. Unlike other techniques such as Neighbor-Joining (NJ) and Maximum Parsi...
