本文提出的问题,估计和验证系统发育树的统计方面。这个问题很难解决,需要采取几个策略:我们通过类比来进行推理,以四舍五入真实的数字,并处理排名数据。在这两种情况下,如在遗传学中,感兴趣的参数不是真实的数。然后,我们提出的问题,在几何方面,使用的距离和措施的自然空间的树木。我们不解决树空间上的推理问题,但提出了一些解决这些问题的连贯方法。(C)2002 Elsevier Science(美国)。All rights reserved.
This paper poses the problem of estimating and validating phylogenetic trees in statistical terms. The problem is hard enough to warrant several tacks: we reason by analogy to rounding real numbers, and dealing with ranking data. These are both cases where, as in phylogeny the parameters of interest are not real numbers. Then we pose the problem in geometrical terms, using distances and measures on a natural space of trees. We do not solve the problems of inference on tree space, but suggest some coherent ways of tackling them. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.
