Description

In this episode, we chat about phylogenetics with Xiang Ji. We start with a
general introduction to the field and then go deeper into the likelihood-based
methods (maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference). In particular, we talk
about the different ways to calculate the likelihood gradient, including a
linear-time exact gradient algorithm recently published by Xiang and his
colleagues.
