BEAST v2.7.8 Documentation: beastclassic.evolution.substitutionmodel.SVSGeneralSubstitutionModel

Specifies transition probability matrix with no restrictions on the rates other than that one of the is equal to one and the others are specified relative to this unit rate. Works for any number of states.
Complex-diagonalizable, irreversible substitution model

Inputs:

rateIndicator, symmetric, rates, eigenSystem, frequencies

 

rateIndicator
type: beast.base.inference.parameter.BooleanParameter
rates to indicate the presence or absence of transition matrix entries
Required input

 

symmetric
type: java.lang.Boolean
Indicates the rate matrix is symmetric. If true (default) n(n-1)/2 rates and indicators need to be specified. If false, n(n-1) rates and indicators need to be specified.
Optional input. Default: true

 

rates
type: beast.base.core.Function
Rate parameter which defines the transition rate matrix. Only the off-diagonal entries need to be specified (diagonal makes row sum to zero in a rate matrix). Entry i specifies the rate from floor(i/(n-1)) to i%(n-1)+delta where n is the number of states and delta=1 if floor(i/(n-1)) <= i%(n-1) and 0 otherwise.
Required input

 

eigenSystem
type: java.lang.String
Name of the class used for creating an EigenSystem
Optional input. Default: beast.base.evolution.substitutionmodel.DefaultEigenSystem

 

frequencies
type: beast.base.evolution.substitutionmodel.Frequencies
substitution model equilibrium state frequencies
Required input
