Phylogenetic models of rate heterogeneity: a high performance computing perspective
Inference of phylogenetic trees using the maximum likelihood (ML) method is NP-hard. Furthermore, the computation of the likelihood function for huge trees of more than 1,000 orga...

Boundary Measures for Geometric Inference
We study the boundary measures of compact subsets of the d-dimensional Euclidean space, which are closely related to Federer’s curvature measures. We show that they can be comput...
