Gentleman & Geyer (1994) discuss the analysis of interval censored data and present results based on standard convex optimisation theory. Here, this problem is viewed from the perspective of a mixing ...

Figure 1: Likelihood-based methods are less accurate than maximum parsimony (MP) under heterogeneous conditions. Figure 2: Parsimony outperforms likelihood over a wide range of heterotachous ...

An efficient algorithm is presented for solving a general class of mathematical programming problems. This class includes the specific task of finding a maximum likelihood ranking based on paired ...
