BEAST v2.7.8 Documentation: beastlabs.math.distributions.MultiMonophyleticConstraint

implemented by the following
beastlabs.math.distributions.MultiMRCAPriors

BEASTObject that performs calculations based on the State.
Probabilistic representation that can produce a log probability for instance for running an MCMC chain.
Prior over set of taxa, useful for defining multiple monophyletic constraints using a newick format

Logable: yes, this can be used in a log.

Inputs:

tree, newick, isBinary, robust

 

tree
type: beast.base.evolution.tree.Tree
the tree containing the taxon set
Required input

 

newick
type: java.lang.String
the tree constraints specified as newick tree using polytopes, e.g. ((human,chimp,bonobo),gorilla) specifies two monophyletic constraints,one for human,chimp,bonobo' and one for 'human,chimp,bonobo,gorilla' Make sure the starting tree is compatible with these constraints.
Required input

 

isBinary
type: java.lang.Boolean
flag to indicate tree is a binary tree instead of a polytopy (faster)
Optional input. Default: true

 

robust
type: java.lang.Boolean
flag to indicate a more robust algorithm should be used (slower)
Optional input. Default: false
